@maura_resister Totally fraudulent. If this image works on you, then I sincerely pity those fools.

@Mollyploofkins So what is a baby before it’s born?

So not conception?

@mattyglesias Wealth isn’t a zero-sum.

But conversely, while there is nothing wrong with building a great business and becoming extraordinarily wealthy there *is* something wrong with hoarding that wealthy for personal consumption or to pass to your kids. slowboring.com/p/the-real-pro…

I think it’s interesting that going back at least as far as Nozick and Wilt Chamberlain the go-to examples for this argument are always celebrity entertainers when obviously the vast majority of extreme wealth is either successful founders, successful investors, or their heirs.

@ZaidJilani Such views are Pollyanna and severely divorced from human nature. Grown adults do not talk like this.

AOC sitting next to Ibram X. Kendi calling for abolishing police and prisons, citing Angela Davis. "Destination is to have a society that doesn’t need prisons, that doesn't need police." Then she says "carceral system" isn't how to respond to rapists.

@JillFilipovic Someone who has strong racist views would believe something like this.

I think Trump was a backlash to Obama but it was because Obama is black.

@davethul Yes because the nation didn’t exist yet. You cannot be serious. You cannot seriously be this stupid to think this is some ‘gotcha.’

Not a single person in this photo was born in the United States of America.

@JillFilipovic You understand that boys are girls aren’t the same, right? It’s super gross when someone snidely invokes sexism into a conversation where it doesn’t belong. Input like this does not encourage good-faith dialogue, but tells everyone to get into their ideological corners. Yuck.

Genuine question because I don’t actually know the answer: when it was boys who wanted to make more money, did researchers call it “materialism,” or did they use a different term?

@Big_Mck This is quite the ignorant, ahistorical, ridiculous statement to make.

Because white people have gone about inserting themselves in other cultures for last 500 years. You invited diversity, now diversity is here to stay, why are you running?

@MoundsViewMayor Racist past?? LOL you’ve been brainwashed. Many of us had ancestors who gave their lives in the fight to end slavery. How dare you invoke racism - a modern concept- in this matter. The wars between settlers and tribes was a clash of civilizations. It wasn’t race that drove them

My position on the flag conversation is that I think we should always be flying the current adopted flag. The reason I feel that way is that it respects democracy. I feel going back to the old flag would be very disrespectful and it would be undermining the democratic process that yielded the current flag. The new flag wasn’t my favorite of the options however it has since grown on me especially post metro surge. I saw the flag become the symbol of perseverance and unity and it really stuck with me and made me proud of our new flag. The pain and suffering we endured from metro surge was felt all across the state and right here at home in Mounds View. The flag was a central symbol of light in the darkness that was metro surge. We will likely do a proclamation and a flag dedication in the near future to cement our commitment to flying this flag and I would also like to see us adopt an ordinance stating we will fly whatever the current adopted flag is further reinforcing our commitment to democracy and the state and the place we call home. In regard to the old 1983 flag there had been attempts to change it for years. I don’t have any real attachment to it other than it’s all I have known. After 43 years It was time for a change. The old flag also had some racial undertones to it that does not reflect my values or our values as a city. I will admit I never saw the flag that way but have since learned about its history and nowhere in my conscience do I want us to be one of the cities who go back to that. Mounds View is a city where EVERYONE is WELCOME. We have done tremendous work to address our own racist past, and we will continue to work on it. We will continue to be a beacon of what is possible when good government works to serve its people and I think we are doing just that and the old flag does not fit in that equation.

@jairovim @crsanchezx So many excuses and this mindset is exactly the problem. Forging your path in life as a young adult has never been easy, but this seems like the first time they don’t want to do the hard things while blaming everyone else.

@crsanchezx HOY! En 2026, en muchos lados, pese a que saben hacer cosas útiles y trabajan! el ingreso NO LES DA para comprar casa, por eso, cero matri y cero hij@s! . Entonces, en muchos casos, de manera racional e inteligente no se le miden a más cargas que no pueden asumir!!.

Ser adulto en 1990: - Casarte - Tener hijos - Comprar una casa - Saber hacer cosas útiles - Madurar rápido y aceptar el paso del tiempo Ser adulto en 2026:

@Provokethoughtz The Electiral Collegenwas established in Constitution. These are lies.

@JamesTate121 When you have to use or create propaganda to make your point, you have no point. And it makes you a liar.

Two Black Tennessee lawmakers were physically escorted out of chambers this week while Republicans quietly held a hearing to approve gerrymandered maps that would eliminate the state's only majority-Black congressional district. No referendum. No special election. No public vote.

@actingliketommy @MarkCook185009 Yes, people who react to disagreement like this typically don’t have the facts in their side. The racism hides in the perpetuation of welfare dependency, tantrums about inequality & DEI, low expectations for non-whites, the intransigent belief that blacks are a monolith.

@MarkCook185009 we know what happened with the southern states in 1964, migrating to the gop. fuck off with your uneducated take. you fucking dunce

Remember... the South did not want to end segregation. Or, slavery. They did not want to give black people their constitutional right to vote. They were FORCED to. They're going to go back to the 1940s. They WILL segregate schools again. They've been trying to go back to this.

@actingliketommy Those were Democrats who did that. Now they hide their racism under a thin veil. But it’s plain to see fo anyone with a functioning brain.

@TulikaBose_ Fake. How many takes did you need?

This is a remarkable photo and a reminder of why photojournalists are so important

@SenTinaSmith First, not the tone I was expecting of a US Senator. Second, who's paying you to say that? Pfizer, United Health, the AMA,...

People I care a whole lot about rely on SSRIs to make their lives work. I don’t know where I would be without SSRIs. Get your fucking hands and your crazy conspiracy theories out of our medicine cabinets.

@J_fassler What a ridiculous, unfounded, delusional assertion to make. Either low-IQ or low-info here.

It will never cease to embarrass me that the second a Black man took the highest office in the land, White Americans rose up to make sure no person of color could ever attain a position of such authority anywhere ever again.

@OrevaZSN I don't care how the poor spend the money they earned. But unearned benefits from the government definitely should have restrictions. Also you sound like a straight up communist.

You ever noticed that it’s socially acceptable to tell poor people how to spend their money? But when we ask the rich to stop hoarding wealth, the response is always “it’s their money.”

@ChadHartmanShow why does it matter that the reporter is a woman? and she did ask a profoundly stupid question and mockery is warranted.

The President demeaning another female reporter, must be a day that ends in y.

@marlene4719 No he does not discriminate with his insults. This is exactly why nobody believes accusations of 'racism' or 'sexism' anymore. Those words have lost meaning because that's how the left loves to shut down thought and speech.

When a president of the United States calls a black woman journalist a bitch, silence is not an option. Shame on her cowardly coworkers.
