"Grow up. You really expect us to protest when there is any risk or danger involved? Protesting Democrats is safe and fun. Protesting MAGA and Republicans is too dangerous. Don't be silly. Oh btw, both sides are the same"



64% of "very liberal" Americans, and 71% of Millennials with graduate degrees, believe that it is "racist" if teachers expect black children to speak standard English. These data come from the American Political Perspectives Survey (APPS) collected from August 3, 2025, to September 26, 2025, with 3,000 American adults who speak English. All respondents needed to pass (1) attention checks, (2) a duplication check, (3) time-to-completion checks, (4) fraud and (5) bot-identification checks.

“I think our reverence for the truth might have become a bit of a distraction that is preventing us from finding consensus and getting important things done.” — Katherine Maher (NPR CEO)


Let's be clear: Red Lobster went bankrupt after private equity bought the chain, loaded it up with debt, and gutted it.



DISTURBING: Gavin Newsom’s wife on how she raises her son: “I've given our boys dolls… if I'm reading a book and the protagonist is a male, I just change the 'he' to a 'she.'”


one important question for anyone who supports "defensive" military aid to Israel such as the Iron Dome is: do you support defensive military aid for Palestine? Will you fund a Golden Dome for Gaza to protect its civilians from Israeli missiles? And if not, why not?

At my Seder last night, every single person had moved away from support for Israel. Opinions differed, but everyone was less supportive than they were five years ago. And there was resentment of U.S. synagogues over their stance on Israel.

35% of @TheDemocrats voters side with Hamas, a genocidal terrorist organization, over Israel. Meaning, over 1/3 of Democratic voters support a genocidal terrorist organization over a democracy. 53% of 18-24 year olds supports Hamas over Israel. 38% of of 25-34 year olds support Hamas over Israel. 28% of 35-44 year olds support Hamas over Israel. 24% of 45-54 year olds support Hamas over Israel. 24% of 55-64 year olds support Hamas over Israel. That's over 1/4 of ALL voters support the genocidal terrorist organization over the Jewish state that Hamas attacked and is the only one to commit the actual crime of genocide. Our politicians have failed us by failing to meet this moment and feeding into divisive rhetoric and blood libels.
