“Fund the police” was Biden’s *applause* line in his first joint address to Congress. It was written to echo LBJ saying “we shall overcome” in his joint address as a lifeline to a movement under attack. I really don’t bring it up enough.
Never before has the urge to be a completionist been more valuable. Genuine curiosity is about to be a competitive advantage like none other.
It was something he heard in a period movie.
Such merit.
I think about this a lot.

Look at Palantir's Alex Karp, openly saying AI will remove women from public life.
They desperately want people raised by wire monkey, because that is what needs to happen if these freaks want an infinite supply of victims and slaves.
The goal here is that poor children will be deliberately raised wrong, deskilled from square one.
The exact same goal that animated making it a crime for a slave to be literate, the same goal that animated banning women from education, etc.
It's the modern version of raising a serf.
They just want you to pay for your heart to beat
There are white CHILDREN in Pennsylvania currently facing SERIOUS CHARGES after THEY were attacked by plain clothed cops. Their families are raising money for legal fees through GoFundMe. Some of you are pathetic.
For weeks now, I've shared information about HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS protesting ICE REGULARLY. So much so that whole states like Kansas and Texas are rolling out LAWS to sanction schools and laws to criminalize TEENAGERS. Please let's be serious.
Fascists, by their nature, regard expertise as disloyal and invalid
Trump etc demand loyalty and sycophancy above all else, which means they fire or alienate good lawyers and are left with incompetent bootlickers
I knew it in a historical sense but the constant failures of MAGA lawyers really made it concrete. Like by our nature a good lawyer tells a client things they don’t want to hear, and while a lawyer serves a client the client gives up a lot of control to a lawyer.

A flyer taped to a utility pole It features John Fetterman’s face with the eyes and mouth replaced by elements from American printed money , under the words “call your senator” and “I love bombing children with your money while you can’t afford healthcare “ and “call me” with his office number I assume
Spotted this on a pole behind independence hall. I recently saw someone say they found collage to be the best way to work through things and I didn’t really see it at the time but
A disgusting end to a saga detailed by @lisahajjar.bsky.social and Basil Farraj a year ago in MERIP.

Are there any good silk suiting bunches reasonably available these days?
That’s pretty conservative visually speaking
Lmao
wait is that what y’all’s city hall looks like
do you live in Tron
Here’s a fuckin NYT headline for you
We aren't fucked. This isn't the median young woman or even young man, this is just some stupid asshole in Florida telling herself "exactly"
This is silly. Go back to fighting ICE, this is a waste of time
No joke, I think this might be one of the most important roles for tech-savvy Millennials/Gen Xers.
We caught a glimpse of an amazing world, one that was almost entirely free of corporate or political influence because the suits hadn’t caught on yet. We could talk with ANYONE in an age of landlines
The Non-Profit Security Grant Program (NSGP) for 2025 has been released, including the FY 2025 Dept of Homeland Security Standard Terms and Conditions. No, our congregation will not comply with the administration's requirement to neglect DEI and to cooperate with ICE. We will not apply for funding that is supposed to protect us if it means sacrificing democratic principles. Such an agreement would not make Jews or anyone else safer. As Jewish Council for Public Affairs Director Amy Spitalnick teaches us: Jewish safety requires inclusive democracy and inclusive democracy requires Jewish safety.
This administration has made synagogues less safe.
DHS offers security grants, but under Trump they've added requirements which many synagogues, including my own, will not compromise their values to make—insisting that we reject DEI and turn away the stranger, directly contradicting the Torah.
Americans will do anything to avoid using metric
