  • And the “principled”, “unwaivering”, and allergic to nuance helped usher in a fascist who is the self proclaimed “protector” of Israel.

    Anyone who thought that the guy who recognized Israel’s contested capital, who “fought for Israel like no president ever before,” who claimed "Anybody who’s Jewish and loves being Jewish and loves Israel is a fool if they vote for a Democrat,” who believes that the US election day was “the most important day in the history of Israel,” who wants to deport students exercising their right to protest the genocide, and who’s only criticism of the genocide was that it was too public and slow would be better for Gaza is a deluded fool.




  • Re: the headline

    No they didn’t.

    “In terms of anticipating future behavior, that’s a speculation,” the chief said. “That’s just what we have to anticipate. It would be really naive of us or unjust for us to say that ‘hey, it’s all taken care of,’ and we don’t have him in custody.”

    They are planning for future attacks because it would absolutely stupid and a failure of their duties to not, but nowhere in that article are they quoted as saying they think he will.

    That might not seem like an actual distinction, but to claim they think he will act again implies they have some material insight and can discourage voters even further from attempting to use drop boxes; conversely, to claim they are anticipating future attacks does not imply any material insight and if anticipation is followed with increased security can help to assuage voters’ fears.





  • All great cultures of the past perished only because the originally creative race died out from blood poisoning

    Hitler

    He poisons the blood of others but preserves his own blood unadulterated

    Hitler on Jews

    Whenever Aryans have mingled their blood with that of an inferior race, the result has been the downfall of the people who were the standard-bearers of a higher culture

    Believe it or not, still fucking Hitler

    There is a former US president who is currently running again who can’t keep spouting literal Nazi lies-and a third of Americans agree with him. That should terrify you. We know what happens when Nazis take power and the US is not immune.







  • “At that moment, that was the most scared I had been in my life because I thought at any moment he would pull out a gun and just start shooting me,” he said during his testimony at trial, later adding: “I didn’t have the luxury to wait and see a gun because I knew in an instant I could be dead.”

    Then you shouldn’t be a police officer.

    The dude was reaching into his waistband after he’d fallen down. How the fuck do we know he wasn’t just pulling up his pants?

    Also stealing something is not an action warranting deadly force. Stuff can be replaced, there’s insurance, and whatever store he robbed from ain’t gonna suffer. You think they’re just gonna take whatever blood covered loaf of bread and put it back on the shelf?


  • Honestly, most Americans should be worried about fraud. Republicans have spent the last 4 years putting election deniers in key positions of power, purging voters’ registrations, and changing laws on how someone can vote and whose vote counts. There are at least 2 Supreme Court Justices that bought into the lie last time and will not hesitate to give the win to Trump if given the opportunity. They tried to fraudulently steal the last one and the same people are still in power. They will try again. The only legal way to stop them is to vote in such high numbers against them that the decision is never sent to Congress or the courts to resolve.
