It’s a politically motivated witch hunt. Plain and simple. The ‘complaint’ isn’t that she’s done anything unethical or illegal but that she’s a democrat and progressively outspoken, ie a target for republican intolerance and rage. And since it’s basically a foregone conclusion that their ‘investigation’ won’t find…

Everyone should be part of a union. Hell, the whole country’s workforce should be unionized.

On The White Lotus, Aubrey Plaza steals the show

It’s another mark in a mountain of evidence that housing should be tightly regulated and not a for-profit industry, much like healthcare.

The ‘prank’ was fine and in good humor...right up until he confronted her about her involvement and she lied to cover it up. That’s when it changed to being vindictive. So unless *HE* did something to deserve being harassed and tormented, that kind of behavior is absolutely not okay. Yes, there’s a fine line between…

Sort of reminds of AP rounds from Fallout 1 and 2 -- not effective at damaging armored targets. Not at all.

Yup. Republicans are using the power of ‘guilty by association’ even though the ‘association’ they’re using isn’t just flimsy, it’s bullshit. But fearmongering is a time-honored tradition among conservatives. They know people in a place of fear do not think critically or rationally about what they’re being told. It…

As long as being a shitty member of society is more ‘profitable’ than being a good one, corporations will ALWAYS trend towards being shittier and shittier members of society. The only way to fix that trend is to make being a shitty member of society untenably detrimental to those in charge of the corporations...which…

No. That was the only evidence actually connecting *HIM* to the crime.

What point did you think you were making?? The only evidence in the case connecting the defendant to the crime of which he was convicted and executed was the eyewitness testimony of a traumatized woman who suffered a serious head injury.

“... acting like AOC did something worth criticism.”

Anyone who has paid any attention to her media presence for at least the last 8 or so years has known as exactly what kind of arrogant, self-absorbed bigot she was. She made it plenty clear enough on many occasions that she was a grand example of an American Karen, like so many before her. Anyone voluntarily calling…

And that changes what in your mind? That we shouldn’t expect or hold our leaders to a higher standard than a street punk?

First of all, eyewitness testimony is literally the *LEAST* reliable evidence admissible in court, especially in cases like this, to the point that it shouldn’t even BE admissible in court. It is that bad. The brain, hopped up on adrenaline, is HORRIBLE at recalling specific details, because it’s not even trying to…

As much as I’m tickled to hear from her gamer side, I also expect better of *LEADERS* than stooping to childish shit-flinging, good natured or not.

Just to throw this out there, but *IF* Trump had been put before an impartial Senate, instead of a Majority Sycophant Republican one, his ass would have been thrown out of office after the first day of hearings and in prison the following morning to await an execution for high crimes against the Unite States. You…

Look, multiple courts, in multiple cases and multiple states, have REFUSED to release demonstrably innocent men. Because as far as these bigoted shitbags are concerned — and this really is the logic at play here — even if you didn’t commit the crime that put you in prison, you must have been guilty of something or…

It’s not as if killing black men is America’s oldest and proudest tradition or anything. Oh, wait...

...you think the proto-fascist slave lobbyists are going to fire themselves??

If unions are so bad, why are so many anti-union businesses and corporations members of one or more unions??
