Are you paying attention? Impeach Carr. Now.

Well, what do you expect as a woke leftist hippie scholar working at (checks bio) the American Enterprise Institute and serving as (looks again) the Kissinger Chair at the Library of Congress?

My lifetime goes back to JFK, and this goes for all of the R presidents in my life also (add Nixon, Ford, Reagan, GHWB). Except Ford. Economy was shit, but he didn’t start any new wars. I’m counting expansion of the Vietnam War into Laos and Cambodia for Nixon.

I get periodic flashbacks these days from having read Stand on Zanzibar and The Sheep Look Up by John Brunner when I was in my Teens in the 1970’s. Probably need to go back and re-read them now.

Have you read Gerald Durrell? If not, try β€œMy Family and Other Animals.” Lovely books.

April 29th is 60 days from the start of this war. Per the War Powers Act Trump will have 30 days from that date to wind things down, unless he can get Congress to pass an AUMF. All Congress has to do is NOT authorize continuation of this mess. This will be playing out ~6 months before the midterms.

If only US journalists were this willing to call out racism and other forms of hateful extremism.

It’s gonna be a pretty solid weekend if social media is flooded with clips of Laura Loomer getting her ass handed to her in-person by Indian journalists. Shout-out to Rajdeep Sardesai for kicking off the festivities.

I don’t think blowing up oil facilities is likely to lower the price of oil.

The SAVE America Act is a voter suppression scam. It would take away the rights of working people to make their voices heard at the ballot box.

The Senate must reject this bill.

I believe him now, didn’t believe him for a second back then. He is a soul-less monster.

Agree, YouTube is just the easiest way to share a song with everyone since it is free for all.

Impeach and remove him. Now.

A declaration of β€œno quarter” is in itself a war crime. Hegseth must be impeached and removed IMMEDIATELY.

It’s been a couple of years at least since I’ve been to a Starbucks. There are plenty of good local alternatives that I’d rather support.

Why should we give a shit what the Secretary of the Treasury has to say on this?

No, this happened for structural reasons. Without serious reform of our government systems it could easily happen again. The world will correctly withhold trust until that happens.

I’m suggesting that many Christians who support Israel may be doing so for very different reasons than Jews who support Israel (actual Zionists). And unsurprisingly, those reasons may have very little to do with the actual best interests of Jewish people.

Only under the most expansive definition of Zionism. No huge shock to me that an extreme Christianist millennialist who supports the Zionist movement from the US would turn out to actually hate Jews.
