Irish Catholic Guilt. The Best Kind of Guilt.
This is an excellent example of owning the narrative and pushing back against dishonest and accusatory framing.

Anyone with eyes to see and ears to hear knows what's going on.
Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.
The second irony: Turnip is suggesting that "we" saved them from Nazis. Ooh, boy.
MAGA is already dutifully parroting the narrative constructed by their cult leaders. Shame on them.
"All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country."
- Hermann Göring
I thought of this quote this morning, for no particular reason.
"All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country."
- Hermann Göring, 2nd-in-command, Nazi Germany
That's just full-on racist. They aren't even hiding it anymore.

Some things Turnip says make more sense when heard in their original Russian context.

"This is the only form a fascist project could take in the America of this century, Entirely phony and aspirational, assembled from bits of popular culture and popular pyschology. With no mass following committed to it in any real way."

My sentiments exactly.
Epsteinaminophen makes Republican Congresscritters break out in hives.
Facts have a consistent liberal bias.
"of the 31 politically motivated attacks and assassinations since 2018, only one was done by a “leftist”; all 30 others were committed by confirmed rightwingers, the majority openly Trump supporters"

I agree with Justice Ketanji Brown, the smartest Justice on the bench.

I'm not terribly active here but appreciate the platform all the same. Aside from some irritating effects of aging, my life is going very well. Don't let all the politics drive you crazy.
Infographic titled “One Court, Two Standards” compares how the Supreme Court used emergency powers to rule on lower-court injunctions against the Biden and Trump administrations. Two panels show: • Biden Administration: Lower courts blocked policies in 21 cases. 2 cases saw injunctions/TROs were lifted by SCOTUS. • Trump Administration: Lower courts blocked policies in 86 cases. 66 green squares and 20 red squares show that 77% of injunctions/TROs were lifted by SCOTUS. Key takeaway box below reads: “Using its ‘shadow docket,’ the Supreme Court granted emergency relief to lift 77% of lower-court injunctions against the Trump administration. It lifted 0% of those against the Biden administration.” Sources and notes below include: CourtListener data through July 7, 2025; analysis by Adam Bonica.
Apologies, the previous chart was incorrect. I missed that SCOTUS granted emergency relief in Murthy v. Missouri after the appellate court's stay. I also missed FDA v. Alliance.
The updated rate of lifted injunctions for the Biden admin is 10% (2 of 21), not 0%.
We have the fuel... time for launch!
Washoe County is in the new Canada. I'm ok with that.
"Roberts’s immunity ruling not only gutted Smith’s case against Trump, it also sent a clear message: If Trump won the election, he could freely engage in even more egregious crimes. As later events would demonstrate, Trump got the message loud and clear." — @davidrlurie.bsky.social
"If you do not recognize that mass destruction of fundamental concepts of democracy and the US Constitution happening right now, you are either willfully ignorant or just plain stupid. I can’t put it any clearer than that."

Great job by Ruben (@rubenbolling.bsky.social).
Conservatives are less critical & fall for repeated misinformation. The Fox Formula.
Education alone doesn't help skepticism, but higher analytic skills does.
And, we all have self-serving bias.

Donold’s supporters don’t care if they lose their jobs or their freedom as long as he is performatively ‘owning the libs.’ That’s how much they have been taught to hate you.
Sometimes, you gotta call a Nazi a Nazi.
A nice day for a toodle.
Out and about in the desert.
