@marceelias You just can't gerrymander by race, any race. Political gerrymandering is ok and to the same end.

Today's VRA decision is intellectually dishonest and wrong. The conservatives basically said: Black people can vote for their preferred candidates, as long as they prefer the right candidates -- which will be Republicans. An absolutely mockery of the law and stain on the court.

@broadwaybabyto Canadian opinions go over there, bless your heart....

He murdered Renee Nicole Good. Shot her three times and then called her a “f*cking b*tch”. Her last words? “It’s ok dude I’m not mad”. He got three days administrative leave before being transferred to another state. No punishment. No accountability. No justice.

@newrepublic The "Appeal to Authority" logical fallacy crowd lovers don't understand Trump has no fear of the King and he shouldn't. They don't hold offices of any comparable consequence. He does seem to like the King as a person though.

@ClaytonBurnsPhD @Zachary @alexanderburns @Jasper_Goodman So he was a middle of the road progressive of today way back then.

I got the prostitution thing covered so I am in a good position to give you guys some obnoxious advice. Consider the source. —The primary controversy surrounding former U.S. Representative Barney Frank involved a 1989 scandal where he was reprimanded by the House for poor judgment after it was revealed he hired a male escort and personal partner, Stephen Gobie, who ran a prostitution ring out of Frank's Capitol Hill apartment.

Barney Frank has entered hospice care at his home in Maine. As one of his last acts, he’s preparing to release a book repudiating his party’s left flank. “I face a literal deadline,” he tells @Jasper_Goodman. politico.com/news/2026/04/2…

@newrepublic Yes, if you work at McDonalds and give a bitchy customer a sweet tea instead of a Pepsi, you get in a little bit of trouble. The next day you keep your job and continue on.

The ICE agent who shot and killed Renee Good in Minneapolis—and then called her a “fucking bitch” moments before she died in her car—was only placed on three days of administrative leave and continues to work for the agency in another state. trib.al/iRs0dLb

@MollySOShea @_Eric_Romo @GoToImpulse The lowest cost provider worldwide has a monopoly? So all the other providers are launching at zero margin or some amount "acceptable" margin and are still way higher. Or is the others aren't/can't operating in the modern business space?

BREAKING: Eric Romo (@_Eric_Romo), President & COO of Impulse Space (@GoToImpulse) says: "The idea that launch prices are going to fall significantly in the next 5 years is nonsense." "I think there are an awful lot of business models that are predicated on “when Starship allows me to launch for $200 a kilogram…” I think they’re all broken, & all those companies are going to fail." "I think we’ve seen this play out already with Falcon 9 & the pricing around it, where the costs of Falcon 9 allowed SpaceX to deliver the Starlink constellation at a cost per CapEx that made them profitable. But they set the price in the market at something that just barely made it an okay investment to think about OneWeb or Kuiper or anything like that. So they ran that playbook exactly on Falcon 9, & they had their gross margins on Falcon 9—people think we’ll see when the S1 comes out—are like 50% plus. So they could have dropped the price, & they didn’t. They’re going to do the same thing on Starship, because why wouldn’t they? Their internal costs on Starship are going to be whatever they need to be to deploy Starlink & orbital data centers, but they’re going to set the price so that anybody trying to do comms, anybody trying to do orbital data centers—the price is going to be too high. So if you’re a third party relying on them for a lower price of access to space, I think you’re hosed." 00:20 Hot Take Launch Prices 01:41 SpaceX Market Power 02:23 Impulse Space Overview 02:54 Mira For GEO Defense 03:45 Helios Direct To GEO 05:19 Caravan Rideshare To GEO 06:42 Space Economy Reality Check 08:46 Tom Mueller Legends 10:54 SpaceX IPO 13:42 Investor Frenzy & Broomstick 14:05 Alien Eyeballs Outro @elonmusk Recorded at @NYSE x @payloadspace Space Summit

@CathyYoung63 @michaelshermer That is true( not racist), but is also not germane to the convo.....There is your wahtaboutism.

@Hockenjunk @michaelshermer My point is that he's saying Trump is not a racist and ignoring evidence of his racism

I should add: there is more than ample reason to dislike Trump on normal political and economic policy issues that one need not buy the lies that he is a rapist (E. Jean Carroll), racist (both sides), pedo (Epstein), controlled by Russia (collusion hoax), etc. Truth matters.

@CathyYoung63 @michaelshermer You can't let the event happen without ...other stuff. That is the whataboutism. You and your ilk obviously provoked this dude. Clear as can be. There is zero defense. Trump never harmed this schmuck. But you and your Bluesky warriors did.

@CathyYoung63 @michaelshermer Why are youso whataboutism on this guy? There are cut an dried cases out there, this is one. (We know why you are this way.... Irrelevant poster)

@michaelshermer Do you think the claim that he's a racist rests solely on the "both sides" comment? What about the Obama birth certificate? The racist comments about Mexicans? The "low IQ" Somali immigrants?

@axios Why does this matter? Massie is a do nothing grandstanding ass. He a MTG can start a podcast or something in the real world.

@JenSiebelNewsom Do we need a woman only journo league with different rules for stupid gotcha questions?

My family and I watched the 60 Minutes interview with Donald Trump and Norah O’Donnell last night, and we were shocked. Seeing a president speak to a woman journalist with that level of contempt — and a clear allergy to facts — is disturbing, though at this point not unexpected given his pattern of behavior. But that is the problem. Because when that level of disrespect from the highest office in the country repeats itself, it starts to trickle down into our culture and define what power looks like, shaping how boys and plenty of men see women and girls and what they come to accept as normal behavior.

The judge had an irrelevant opinion since the jury were the deciders. Should have shut the fuck up but here we are with the not relevant point being parroted by the likes of you. Your group likes to repeat this while the majority that sees it for what it is just shrugs. You are a parrot.

@michaelshermer Do you think the civil verdict against Trump in the E. Jean Carroll case was wrong? Just curious.

People think it's perfectly okay to lie in the name of a "greater good". For example, these are all Leftist lies: Trump said there are fine people on both sides. Trump is controlled by Russia. Trump is a rapist. Trump is a racist. Trump is a pedophile. Trump is Hitler.

@gtconway3d Civil vs criminal is what you are missing, you know that. And it is not the same thing and you know that. Repeat the lie enough and people start to relive it is your strategy and you know that. That is your company.

And—in addressing Trump's meritless attacks on the jury's verdict, the federal district judge repeatedly stated that what the jury found Trump had done to E. Jean would have constituted rape in most jurisdictions other than New York (which excludes digital penetration from its definition of rape, and classifies it as sexual abuse instead). washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/…

You and yours do not get a free pass on the continuous hyperbolic language you all use to just get political points with your supporters. Everyone but your idiot supporters know you are talking nonsense. Every post like this you have made should be repeated everyday on every social media platform.

I am grateful that the President and all the guests from last night's event are safe, and no one was seriously injured. I thank first responders for their work. While an investigation is underway, we should all be clear that political violence has no place in America.

@SenSanders If Sanders says something is a risk, it means he wants to regulate or tax it.

@willsommer We have another wagon circle rider here!

Hard disagree. This is kinda nuts.
