That doesn’t seem true though, most actual leftists don’t like tankies and the people on Lemmy complaining about tankies seem to mostly be leftists themselves. Tankies are like LaRouchites, no one takes them seriously because the things they profess tend to be silly and they usually have that obnoxious College freshman master-debater energy. It’s not a left or right thing.
The Republican party has not been a traditional political party in quite awhile now, Trumpism has fully transformed it into a dangerous cult. Continued affiliation with the Republican party in the current political context is plenty of evidence to know someone is deeply biased and poses a threat the rule of the law.
No. They have access to a variety of things (e.g. Epstein’s estate provided them with a bunch of his emails) but they just voted to force the DOJ to release the Epstein files, it has not happened yet.
I don’t understand this line of thinking. The Epstein files are the product of criminal investigations. The DOJ has the files and so anyone who has seen them thus far would be authorized to access them by the DOJ (primarily FBI agents and DOJ lawyers). There isn’t any scenario where people like that would be obligated to publicly report incriminating information in the Epstein files. That’s exactly why the DOJ created the Epstein files, to gather incriminating information that can potentially be used in court by Federal prosecutors. If you are under the impression that Democratic politicians have access to the Epstein files, that is not correct.
They had keys, the husband tried first and then when the wife tried she was shot in the head through the door. I don’t think it changes anything, cleaners showing up at the wrong house never posed any threat and the shooter seemingly made no attempt at identifying who was at their door.
Sports paraphernalia or memorabilia.
It’s common advice but not necessarily common practice. A huge number of people live paycheck to paycheck, including those with higher incomes.
Hochul has been at campaign events with Mamdani within just the past several days, it doesn’t really look like she is distancing herself from him when you can find them literally on a stage together. I do agree about Jeffries, I think he is trying to be strategic because of his role in the House, but he sucks too much to pull it off so instead he just looks like an ass. If he was a better politician he could have threaded the needle. In some ways his non-endorsement may have ultimately benefited Mamdani, Democratic leadership is very unpopular right now and having obvious disagreement within the party over Mamdani validates his outsider image.
There’s been Speakers of the House who raped kids so that is really saying a lot about Mike Johnson to call him the worst.
This shit drives me nuts. I’ve put in a lot of effort to secure my accounts but a number of them require SMS without any opt out. We have known about the risks of SMS plenty long enough at this point.
If you take part of the guys statement and ignore the rest of it, and fixate on him not using the precise words “stand up”, I guess I can understand what you are getting at. But in context, he seems to be expressing the exact opposite of what you are claiming.
I think it is more a common American mentality that he embodies rather than a lifestyle. His actual lifestyle is completely alien to most humans.
Can you expand on why you believe this?
I once had a phone with uninstallable Facebook bullshit and it is more than mildly infuriating. Fuck Nothing, they are dead to me now. This is unforgivable.
He is going to try nuking a hurricane again.
He once owned an iron magnet which got wet and then rusted? That is probably still too logical for him but it’s the only kind of plausible chain of thought I can come up with.
Marines getting dumb ass tattoos while drunk in a foreign country is a story as old as time. He definitely used to be a moron, getting a tattoo under those circumstances was obviously a terrible decision.
Intent matters. Did he knowingly choose a Nazi tattoo? All of the evidence suggests he did not, and that as soon as he found out it was associated with Nazis he immediately took action to get rid of it.
I think Tucker Carlson might be able to, once Trump is out of his way.
