I generally ignore anything from News Week, Raw Story, or the Daily Beast. They all do stuff like this. They twist facts to get a story where there is none.

@[email protected] I just want to say thanks for posting quality links so frequently. You’re one of the few who isn’t posting click bait junk like Raw Story and Daily Beast.

The seat opened up after Republican state Sen. Kelly Hancock was tapped as acting state comptroller.

So, the Republicans felt comfortable enough in this district to intentionally trigger this election. They could have appointed someone from another district or someone who wasn’t holding a seat at all, but they thought they were safe. I think that shows just how badly they are underestimating the level of outrage right now.

My bet is that, even if she is impeached and convicted, she will remain in office E just like Lindsay Halligan. None of these shit stains are going anywhere without being physically removed.

If she is impeached, they’re going to do the same thing as with the court order against Lindsay Halligan. They’re going to ignore the order until forced.

What the fuck? After I heard about the previous court ruling I figured that would be the end of it. They’re just flatly ignoring the judge on this? If I were a jljudge, I’d start tossing all cases brought by the eastern district of VA until she is no longer leading the division.

Ummm, that was the point when they voted him in I tuink. It’s just that, as Trump becomes more unpopular, Johnson is losing his usefulness.

Watch the supreme court disagree.

Everything that comes out of his mouth is beneath the office.

When he says something awful like this, though, I figure there is probably another story that he’s trying to bury with manufactured outrage. I suspect Fox is on board and is with amplifying the non-news item to bury the real news item.

I wouldn’t normally say this but it seems warranted in a thread about “Factism”. Trump did not win over 50% of the popular vote. He won with 49.8% in 2024 and 46.1% in 2016.

Before I say this, ICE is awful and driving without a license shouldn’t be a deportable offense. Also, military service should give automatic citizenship.

I feel like this article is leaving something out. How did ICE get involved in this? I mean, I wouldn’t be surprised if they got involved simply because they saw a record of a non-citizen getting arrested but I’m wondering if he didn’t renew his green card or something.

I’m not arguing that this guy deserves to be deported (I think he should be a citizen) but I do wish we got the whole story on things.

I’m talking about… Shit… I read two thirds of your comment and my ADHD brain skipped the middle part. THAT’S WHAT I’M TALKING ABOUT!

Shit… Sorry, without the middle context your comment made it sound like you wanted democrats to cover up inclusion of democrats in the files.

Edit: Apparently it helps to read the full comment and not let your ADHD brain skip the middle part thst gives all of the relevant context. Shit…

How about we throw all of these fucks in prison regardless of political party? Why are you trying to muddy this with politics? I wouldn’t care if it was Trump or if it was Bert and Ernie, anyone involved should be prosecuted.

Oh no! Bill Gates, another asshole billionaire is in the files? Throw him in the same dark hole as the rest of them.

Bill Clinton? Yeah, throw him in, too.

Hillary was aware and said nothing? Prison.

Barack Obama had evidence of ongoing abuse and did nothing? Believe it or not, prison.

Bernie Sanders was on the island? Yeah, prison for him, too.

Fuck all of them and fuck politicizing this issue. Anyone involved should be prosecuted.

So far it does seem to be mostly republicans but I don’t expect it will remain that way. If it does, I’ll be skeptical that we’re getting the whole truth.

All I want for Christmas is an obituary, An obituary, yeah an obituary. Gee, if only I could have an obituary Then, I could wish you Merry Christmas!

I disagree that this is the way forward. I want to see criminal prosecutions. If that results in violence so be it. I won’t support violence, though.

That said, I’m supremely disappointed in the willingness of democrats to persue impeachments and prosecutions.

While it’s possible that violence is required to solve our current problems, I still hold hope that we can solve things another way.

I honestly think that if that were to happen we would end up in a much worse situation. He would become a martyr and the republicans who are starting to see the light would go rage blind.

I agree with you. The problem is that lawsuits cost money. Fighting the company on this requires the right plaintiff who is willing to risk money on the problem.

I agree with you that this should be illegal. I expect this was in the terms of service, though. Since we have no laws restricting this kind of bullshit, the company can argue that they’re within their rights.

We need some real legislation around privacy. It’s never going to happen, but it needs to. We need a right to anonymity but that is too scary for advertisers and our police state.

This is the weirdest way to say this. What a weird bot.

Here’s the fun part. They’ll use the shadow docket and won’t give any rationale.
