@grahamformaine Thousands dead in Iran? Are you speaking about the 30,000 killed in January by the regime for protesting?

The fruits of the war in Iran: thousands dead or wounded, gas headed towards $5/gallon, and, we learned today, 4% inflation.
Susan Collins voted for this.

Oh no. You've seen Spencer Pratt in public and he seemed pretty good but when you read his private messages, you find out that he's even better.
James Li@5149jamesli
🚨 Spencer Pratt, in a private DM: - called antisemitism a "mind virus" - accused current leaders of playing "far too cute" with antisemitic tropes - promises more LAPD presence around Chabad centers - says DOJ should more aggressively prosecute antisemites

What Oregon Democrats did in 2022 is probably the most egregious example escalation in the Redistricting Wars. Oregon Democrats made a deal with Republicans that in exchange for GOP agreeing to end their legislative delaying tactics Tina Kopek promised bipartisan redistricting. Except Kopek lied, reneged on her end of the deal & brutally gerrymandered Oregon with ZERO GOP input.

@igwadolla1 @RobManess Let’s talk about diluting voters. Here’s Portland, Oregon, drawn by Democrats. What goes around comes around.

2006 Bush reauthorizes the VRA 2026: Republicans dismantling the VRA. Crazy how insane the Republican Party has become.

Overturning Roe v. Wade is actually a very clear example of the court surrendering its own power to allow MORE democracy. And Rather is still a lying partisan.

Dan Rather Nails it. We have a SCOTUS afraid of Democracy.

BREAKING: Notice has just been given to Democrats in the Tennessee House that all members of the Democrat Caucus are being removed from all standing committees and subcommittees as a result of their behavior in the statehouse during the redistricting debates last week, which included setting fires inside the Capitol and attacking law enforcement.
In the state of Tennessee, political terrorism will not be tolerated. National Republicans take note that this is how you exercise power.

LA City Council just told LAPD they can't pull anyone over anymore for expired tags, dead tail lights, cracked windshields, busted mirrors, illegal tint, loud exhaust, or missing plates.
Why? Because out of 72,000 stops in three years, 86% were Black or Latino drivers.
So if your car is busted, you're now invisible to the LAPD. Congratulations.
This rule is intended to reduce discriminatory policing and build community trust.

BREAKING: New York Governor Kathy Hochul has announced she will opt in to Trump's new school choice program.

Wicked racial agitators have talked for years about how Elvis “stole” Rock ‘n’ Roll from black musicians.
So what do we call this?
The truth is, Elvis didn’t steal anything, neither did Michael Jackson. Artists inspire other artists. It’s a beautiful thing.
Brian Roemmele@BrianRoemmele
Bob Fosse in Little Prince movie, 1974 had a massive influence on Michael Jackson.

People haven’t lost trust in “science,” they’ve lost trust in a self-selected self-perpetuating academic priest class who rely on constant alarmism or revisionism to secure funding and who look upon dissent as heretical to an extent that would make the medieval church blush.
Simon Maechling@simonmaechling
The collapse of trust in science is going to go down in history as one of the most sad, bizarre, and destructive social contagions of modern times. We fed billions, cured diseases and powered nations - yet people ran toward conspiracies instead.

Teachers average among the least intelligent university graduates. Little of what they 'learn' is even relevant to what they end up doing.
In a given year, the lowest-scoring groups on the GRE, SAT, and ACT are usually those pursuing degrees in education.
giardiniera gestator@just_riffing
Actually neither of us are qualified to homeschool children because we both have not obtained degrees in childhood education hope this helps, Allie.

@SwannMarcus89 Good luck getting them to see it. Their vision is glorious (see below).
They just need everybody to do as they’re told…and it will finally, at long last, be realized.

@XYSouthPhilly Massachusetts' map isn't a racial gerrymander (and you can't draw a compact district in Massachusetts that reliably elect Republicans anyway).
English
Per my rough estimates, the bluest district on this map is 8 at Trump +17 and every other district is Trump +20 or more. If this evil map is legal (and my interpretation of the Callais ruling is that it is) then the VRA is completely dead.
