On the one hand the price of joining these bodies is your soul, morality, and the future of the country and planet.

On the other the benefits are pretty good, and you don't actually have to work all that often.

Biden is currently trying to raise money for another 100,000 cops, abetting a genocide, and has all but abandoned most progressive policies, and these morons still think they're fighting the right.

An important political distinction:

The left thinks the right is gaining because the center legitimizes and makes common cause w it against the left

The center thinks the right is gaining because the left confirms everything the right says about it being unhinged and dangerous

If voters switch from Joe Biden to Jill Stein because she supports a ceasefire in Gaza and an end to Israeli apartheid and occupation, that is not a protest vote.

Choosing a party or a candidate because of its policies is how a thing called democracy works. Please learn about it

Thatcher said her greatest legacy was Tony Blair.

And now we've got Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves doing an even worse tribute act.

The time to do this was immediately after Roe v. Wade was repealed, you know, when Democrats had control of the House and Senate.

Famously orgs love it when people other than their PR people talk to the press. It's why many companies, agencies, charities, and countries have gotten rid of PR people entirely.

I wonder if Romney realizes that his admission here is going to be used in legal filings to argue that the TikTok ban is a clear 1st amendment violation and the 'national security' justification was a pretext.

In other words: No, you are not crazy They really are banning TikTok to cover for a genocide and regain control of the narrative.

Incredible historical document here: Blinken says Israel’s PR is failing because social media allows people a direct look at what’s happening, shorn of the ability to mediate it, and it lands with emotional resonance. Romney then says yes, that’s why we moved to ban TikTok

I’m a historian of US foreign relations and modern international politics, and there is literally no other political situation anywhere in the world in the last 130 years where the US said it has no leverage and can do nothing to shape the behavior of another state.
