I really can’t think of a reason for them to cave other than worry that Trump will actually pressure Republicans into ending the filibuster and they might have to start doing their fucking jobs.

Or Republicans might lose too hard and then scary progressive things could happen.

Because if they get rid of the filibuster he might have to start doing his job.

Alternate headline: Judge tries to save the poor from starvation and save Republicans from themselves.

We talking Ozempic or a really thick joint?

Don’t forget the Israel lobby.

Kowalski! Run the numbers on a trade embargo with the US!

We’re all libs to Laura Ingraham.

I hope you libs are ready to get OWNED when we shine a spotlight on this young, energetic, ridiculously charismatic mayor proposing new solutions to the problems a big majority of americans are facing!

It’s because her philosophy doesn’t align with reality. She bought into the fantasy that the rich get rich because they’re smarter and harder working than everyone else, when really they’re all a lot more Trumpy than she would have thought.

Howard Roark is about as realistic as Daenerys Targaryen.

One thing I like about Mamdani is that he clearly has contempt for these people, but also the self-control to keep it in plausible deniability territory.

I have to wonder: did they seriously mean it when they made “don’t be evil” their company motto way back in the day? I’d be open to the idea that they were sincere at the time and then had their brains broken and their souls corroded by extreme wealth.

Or, maybe they were being dishonest even back then, and that mercenary attitude is what you need to succeed in Corporate America.

Republicans: So, anyway, I doubled down…

Seeing that list of stars, I didn’t even need to open the article to see if Paramount was just conflating anti-genocide with anti-semitic.

They are, in case it wasn’t immediately clear.

I think we were headed to our current state of affairs since Reagan, but the police state status was definitely accelerated by 9/11.

Don’t kink shame.

This might actually affect some republican politicians. They must REALLY want health insurance premiums to go up.

Osama bin Laden would be thrilled with the state of the US today.

We the jury find the defendant guilty of wasting a perfectly good sandwich, when samples of dog poop were readily available for throwing at fascists.
