I wonder how threatened the GJ felt, too. I’ve been on one where we indicted a cop (funnily enough, because we were to a person contrarians and were pissed off that the prosecutors were obviously trying to pressure us - even the few that weren’t sure the cop had done anything wrong were like “fuck this attitude, we’re…

They don’t call it the Non-profit Industrial Complex for nothing.
Kamala Harris....Kamala “the DA” Devi “the AG” Harris... was rated the “most liberal US senator” in 2019? Seriously? I certainly don’t know all your senators, but...really? What kind of place are you running down there?
An early draft of Eisenhower’s speech had him calling it the ‘military-industrial-congressional complex.’ He dropped one word. Eisenhower’s speech may partly have been as motivated by concerns about Kennedy’s assumption of the Presidency as one made out of the firmest conviction that the complex had an momentum of its…
The depressing part is these people will keep occupying toops in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Somalia, wherever, forever, rather than leave because somehow, that way, if we do, Russia or China or Iran (delete as appropriate) ‘wins.’ As you said, stopped clock. Imagine a competent President intentionally making the same…
The “made in China” part told us all we need to know about you. Keep it up.
Its disappointing that it took the Blessed Madonna until July of this year AFTER petitions and I’m sure a lot of pleas from people around her for her to consider this a “no brainer.” Black Madonna is literally a depiction of a Madonna who is black.

What are the good things McKinsey is responsible for? I’ve really only heard of their baseball cheating scandals and neoliberalism. If there’s more to them than that, I would be curious.
I don’t know either of them personally, but I do know a handful of McKinsey folk and Pete always reminded me of the rest of them: Exactingly cultivated personalities with principles that extend no further than their usefulness.

Is more than 20 percent POC not diverse enough for protests? Is there some minimum you think there should be?
Every single word - appallingly accurate.
It’s funny the whole strategy on why the Dems shouldn’t listen to the left because they will get called socialist (if only they were!) ... and then get called that anyway by the Republicans. It’s almost like it’s just an excuse so the dems can capitulate to the right every chance they get to receive funding.
I had masks, too, Kate! Boxes of them! From last year’s wildfires! Which I then used for Covid-19! And then received masks from work for the pandemic! Which I then used for the wildfires!
Glad to see Markey ahead in the polls. This race is Old Guard vs. Progressive with the old man ironically being the progressive.
Thank you.
I don’t count White Feminism as feminism; it just another projection of White Supremacism highlighting its lack of meaningful egalitarianism and class consciousness.
The fucking silence in the comments to the original post is deafening.
