Life/politics = nuance.
This platform is now essentially Elon's boring cyber-kingdom.

The most consistent theme of conservatism is being completely unable/unwilling to understand how a thing is bad until it happens to you.

[Seth Abramson @SethAbramson]

I want to strengthen my last statement—this *is* an election-rigging scheme. And the fact that there was a conspiracy in the executive branch to hide it makes it likely this constitutes a Criminal Conspiracy to Commit Election Fraud headed by Donald Trump. https://t.co/nwNV9Zgvz4

@llkooldre50 @GOP__Ls Yeah - in some Republican run states where for profit prisons are rampant, they even have prison labor working at fast food chains like Chick-fil-A, etc.
It seemed clear one solution to mass deportations obliterating migrant farm labor would be the use of prison labor instead.

@EmmaStockNotes @Barchart Man, what happened them around 2018 in this chart when it looks like they were at like 5%?

@dave_spirit2001 @grok @actingliketommy @amuse @TeamTalaricoHQ Looks like you really needed to convince yourself what Paxton did was fine by getting an AI agent to say so, but you know AI agents are fallible tools, not magic oracles who present unimpeachable truths, right?

Paxton didn't have to give him such a sweetheart deal, but he did.

[Team Talarico @TeamTalaricoHQ]

The family of a child who was repeatedly raped by a man who Ken Paxton let off with no new jail time is speaking out:

“The fact that Attorney General Ken Paxton allowed this man to get away with molesting and sexually abusing [our] son for three years is completely disqualifying.

Adam Hoffman could have faced life in prison. Instead, Ken Paxton and his office offered him a deal that kept him off the sex-offender registry and included no new jail time.”

[Hypermodern Void @hypermodernvoid]

@sensiblemiddle @jt_ennis The fact this is real, hasn't completely sunk him, and polling is still showing a tight race is insane.
Everyone who's planning to vote for him needs to know about this if they don't - and for those that do but are still going to, I'd really like to hear why or how they could.

[Hypermodern Void @hypermodernvoid]

@gamatoe @raynus77 @jt_ennis Agreed, except I don't think him getting "softball" questions just because Paxton won't show up would be a good look or necessary - I'm sure Talarico would have no problem answering typical debate questions.

He could also just do town halls if Paxton insists on being a wimp.

[GOP Ls @GOP__Ls]

🚨 JUST IN: Trump administration permanently deletes anti-corruption registry.

This has been described as the "single-greatest pro-corruption step in decades."

[Hypermodern Void @hypermodernvoid]

@gryffindorcxnt @greatavanscott @PollTracker2024 Since Talarico "does nothing for [you]", you're fine with letting Paxton win and enabling the first attempt at creating an entrenched authoritarian government in US history?
This is literally the choice between fascism or keeping democracy - how does that "do nothing" for you?

New GOP message on the cost of living: “stop whining.”

Texas right now:
4 grams of THC = 10 years in prison.
Being a pedo = pardon from Ken Paxton

@sroark2010 @omegacloud @Parodyjeffx @grok You people:
1) Don't know simple facts like the DOJ has been illegally refusing for months to release tons of files and illegally redacting much of what they did, and,
2) You actually think Trump spent well over a decade as Epstein's best buddy but never did anything wrong. lol

[Hypermodern Void @hypermodernvoid]

@sroark2010 @omegacloud @Parodyjeffx @grok The DOJ literally *did not* release *all* of it:

They are continuing, to this day, to *illegally* refuse to release of tons of the files AND they *illegally* redacted huge chunks of what they even did release, despite congress literally *passing a law* saying they couldn't.

[Hypermodern Void @hypermodernvoid]

@frogcorpsusa @sroark2010 @Parodyjeffx @grok You mean the FBI Trump's lackey and drunk Patel is in charge of? That spent 1 month in spring 2025 having 1,000 agents flag all mentions of Trump in the Epstein files, that his DOJ is *illegally* refusing to release all of, and *illegally* redacted?

Yeah we'll get right on it

Trump: best I can do for you is Fauci’s diary, some lies about the reflecting pool, and a failed war in Iran

[Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein]

Trump’s Truth Social has just officially launched their $100,000 per month paid service offering faster access to President Trump's market manipulating posts.

Below is a taste of what you’re paying $100,000 per month for.

He’s manipulating the stock market and then charging people to have the ability to insider trade.

Things don’t get any more corrupt than this.

[Alex Cole @acnewsitics]

They want Fauci arrested over a vaccine Trump still calls one of his proudest achievements. You can't parody this stuff.
