If the entire Democratic Party is being asked by the press and pundits about a few DSA candidates in NYC, it seems like the entire Republican Party should be asked about their colleague who has been credibly accused -- by another colleague's daughter -- of repeated acts of violence.

“The crux of it is that we’re back in a world where major great power war is thinkable." @nktpnd.bsky.social in @newstatesman1913.bsky.social on our dangerous new nuclear age: www.newstatesman.com/cover-story/...

There are absolutely people who crap on those three things in bad faith. But some basic reading comprehension and a little critical thinking helps you figure out which it's 90% of the time!

Agree with @jamellebouie.net that it's pretty clear Elon Musk wanted to eviscerate USAID *for the purpose of killing as many African people as possible.* Mass death wasn't an accidental byproduct of his "deep state" paranoia; it was a key mission of DOGE. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/29/o...

All three of those things require hard questions! Our country could be completely anti-genocide, stop giving them weapons, and look at Israel like they're 1990's Serbia and it would still require incredibly difficult strategic questions about deterring rabid ethnonationalist from doing atrocities!

Oh fuck yeah, cool new tool!

If your metric for quality of the World Cup is amount of self-inflicted humiliation by Argentina, this is greatest one that has and ever will happen

People feel a lot of things, it doesn't make the tone they made up in their head real

He asked about policy specifics and got a lot of fair and interesting replies. You responding like this just makes me glad you won't be a congresswoman. Left-wing policy actually needs people who will be willing to crunch the numbers instead of post.

The problem isn't that the grocery stores will feed ppl. It's that they won't. Selling goods at 30% below market prices basically guarantees that speculators and hoarders will be first in line for *everything*, and poor ppl with busy, overworked lives will encounter empty shelves and long lines.

There's a bunch of smart people who went in there and gave good, earnest answers. Meanwhile, you did a repost to start shit. A compelling argument here that your election failure was a good thing

"Damn it, again?!"

*chuckling and putting down my copy of the financial times* President Trump executed Order 66? Doesn't that clown know that'll be bad for military morale?

made this into a meme for you

The stupid bastard

Tom, I've seen you struggle with the definition of the term genocide. Pick your little fights with perceived contrarian leftists, but keep that word out of your mouth, as a courtesy.

Not only does the “war” eagle look notably German, but the only eagle that faces right is the NSDAP party insignia.

This is I feel a very unfair critique War guilt and PTSD are very real and very rich topics Also if you want the Trojan perspective that’s the Aeneid

"(regardless of our military support)" is a hilarious thing to just toss in there as a parenthetical. Like, no, you've identified why it is our problem.
