it’s not like it’s only her or confined to Democrats.

True. She just happens to be the very best at it, bar none.

She’s less awful than most Republicans and a few of the Democrats in Washington in general, but when it comes to legal corruption, nobody’s as prolific and skilled as Pelosi. No Democrats, no Republicans.

That’s how she was elevated to leadership over 20 years ago without seniority and with no legislative accomplishments to speak of: nobody’s as good at corralling and representing the owner donors as her.

Except myself, an elder millennial born on the penultimate day of 82. I’m at peace with being middle aged 😄

House Progressive Caucus is the third-most dishonestly named caucus after the Freedumb Caucus and the Problem Solvers Caucus.

While it DOES indeed contain all the progressives, it also contains a majority of corporate Dems who care about as much about people who don’t give them at least $5,000 per election cycle as Donald Trump cares about dogs.

For fuck’s sake! Go away and take Hillary with you!

And while you’re at it, take your 1992 strategies for campaigning and legislating away. Just like you, they are not useful to the vast majority of people in the third decade of the 21st century.

Billionaires and hectomillionaire shareholders are pretty much the same thing when it comes to enshittification.

It might not be racist from the top down like the husk formerly known as Twitter is now, but it’ll enshittify and be racist from the bottom up nonetheless.

BlueSky might not be racist YET, but it will be when all of the establishment media migrate there and the dumb masses follow.

Besides, it’ll be enshittificated sooner or later like all corporations with shareholders.

Sick burn.

That’s an interesting username… Are you Jake from a farm or are you a farm that grows Jake?

US finds that Israel is not impeding assistance to Gaza; aid groups disagree objective reality vehemently disagrees

Fixed it. This is literally Trump level gaslighting idiocy.

Error! Recursion loop! Danger, Will Fuckheadson!

The Onion’s parent company, Global Tetrahedron

Eee! They named the parent company after the evil corporation parent company in The Onion Movie! That makes me unreasonably happy! 😂🥰

Which he and his administration of course failed spectacularly at in every way possible.

He was exactly the wrong president for the moment.

The country needed bold action to stave off societal collapse and in stead, it got Mr Slow And Steady to reassure the owner donors by rearranging the deck chairs and shouting at people to stop complaining about the icebergs.

A 13 October letter addressed to then-Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant and Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer from their US counterparts said Israel must allow 350 aid trucks a day into Gaza over the next 30 days. Most aid organisations estimate that around 700 trucks a day are needed to meet everyday needs.

In the second half of October, the World Food Programme said just 58 trucks a day were being allowed into Gaza

It’s beyond tragicomedy and into dystopia. That anyone believes a word the complicit US government says about the fascist apartheid regime at this point is proof positive that political gaslighting is much more effective than most people believe.

since then, Israeli forces have sealed off northern Gaza and announced on the day of the US election, on 5 November, that its former residents would not return to their homes.

To the surprise of no honest and observant person paying attention. And with no consequences now or ever.

I fucking hate how corrupt and fundamentally dishonest the motherfuckers who were the LEAST evil choice in the election they spectacularly bungled are 🤬

Two points:

1. all Nazis are fascists but not all fascists are Nazis. Nazis liked public works projects and pretending to be socialists, both of which are anathema to the American Fascist Party

2. The ones campaigning with Republicans stubbornly refuse to acknowledge the fact that Republicans are fascists.

Other than the campaigning with the politically identical daughter of a war criminal, admitting that it consists of giving concessions to fascists is SUPER inconvenient for the party pretending that “bipartisanship” is the greatest political virtue.

You know you’re contradicting yourself, right?

Actively embracing the daughter with identical politics of Dick Cheney IS going hard right.

It may say “sane Republicans oppose Trump”, but it also says “we are so obsessed with winning over the Right that we’ll endorse people who are against everything we pretend to believe in while ignoring the Left that we’re pretending to represent”

It didn’t “add depth”, it made obvious their hypocrisy and lack of regard for policy that affects the lives of regular people more than those of themselves and their owner donors.

Because Biden is a feckless conservative Democrat who cares more about protecting the INSTITUTIONS of American democracy, such as the notion that presidents and former presidents deserve special treatment, than democracy itself and appointed an AG who agrees.

infighting with the only legitimate opposition to Republicans criticizing the billionaire-owned controlled opposition that is as complicit as any non-Republican in allowing fascism to rise again.

Fixed it for you.

Nah, it’s still checks and balances. Billionaires write checks and Republicans add the money to their balances.
