And to young men: Yes, a chunk of the GOP literally hates you.
10 years ago, virtually all of them hated us.
Today it's fewer. Tomorrow it's even fewer.
But no matter how much time passes, the Democrat party will always want to kill you.

California and America,
What does it mean when you can get elected after your party destroys the state, gets caught stealing taxpayers’ money, mayors are facing corruption trials, some are caught sleeping with Chinese spies, some ARE Chinese spies... the public-sector unions who support this party count the votes. Voting fraud is rampant and obvious, and you don’t even have to campaign to win governor, attorney general, or any other major office.
What does it mean when a party spends more per child on education that anyone else, but gets the worst results, while the teachers unions spend big time to continue this waste and celebrate the destruction of our children’s future, and still get elected?
What does it mean when the same unions that get taxpayers’ dollars spend our money to ensure the side wins that will grant them bigger raises. Then pass laws that make it easier to cheat in elections. And we let them.
What does it mean when you can track all the money in one party's sophisticated NGO ecosystem to foreign enemies, mostly China, and that party clearly idolizes China’s communist government over America’s constitutional republic?
What does it mean to you?
To me, it means that the enemy is inside the gates, and it’s time to address our union. We should all feel honored and privileged for this opportunity, for if we succeed, our names will be echoed into history alongside the founders and individuals before us who created this great nation.
May God be with us all in the next turning.

These communists were deeply embedded in the EU & US intel community, & had materially harmed (& in some cases permanently silenced) hundreds of America's most insightful thinkers
Trump State Dept crushed their IT & financial infrastructure, & they're throwing in the towel

The rube-goldberg character of capital punishment, incl the multi-stage $200K drug cocktail, is the result of concern trolling from activists to make the process as expensive, tedious, & absurd as possible, so that they can say "look how expensive, tedious, & absurd this is"
States should ditch lethal injection and just go back to hanging or firing squads. Lethal injection was never about making execution less "cruel." It was simply easier to take for the executioners and spectators - it looks like someone going to sleep, no blood.
It was hypocritical from the beginning, covering up the violence of the act.

When some Chamber of Commerce republican says “look we can’t deport people who have been here for 15-20 years”….
My first thought is “THEY WERE ONLY HERE THAT LONG BECAUSE YOUR FAT F**KING CORRUPT ASS DIDN’T DEPORT THEM, THIS JUST MAKES ME WANT TO DEPORT YOU TOO”

Universities spent the past 30 years purging right-wing faculty, suppressing right-wing students. Therefore we can bankrupt the entire industry without damaging anyone on our own side. Leftists should've anticipated the obvious consequence of decades of purging right-wing views.
Replying to @upstatefederlst
You’re gonna put the colleges in complete bankruptcy and tank higher education completely to own the libs.

Boomers that hate their children.
That's the audience for this add. They see their son and grandson excited about WoW Forever and think that they're deadbeats for enjoying videogames while they fry their brains on TV 16 hours a day.

The reason old white Boomers and the Republican establishment spend all their time attacking young white men is because they need to validate their deep psychological guilt for racially discriminating against their own children and grandchildren.
They're traitors. It was a betrayal.
They did everything they could to help the rest of the world, by selling off the birthright that belonged to the next generation.
They kept their own money, power, and status, while refusing to hire or mentor their own descendants, and treating foreign barbarians as rightful heirs with a superior moral claim.
They will do anything to avoid admitting the truth of how much they crushed young white men.
Now they're looking down and seeing their children and grandchildren struggling. Boomers love cruises because it allows them to get away from American cities flooded by brown biomass foreigners swarming around in hordes. Boomers feel an intense cognitive dissonance that this favela Brazil-Mogadishu-Mumbai slum-world isn't what they were promised.
Boomers need a story to rationalize and justify how much they've wrecked the lives of their children and grandchildren, and how much they've given away America's wealth and factories and careers to foreign countries. They desperately need to believe that they did everything right, that their children and grandchildren were morally inferior.
Otherwise their entire lives were a lie. It's too painful for them. The truth threatens their Self-Image. Boomers will burn all of Western Civilization to the ground before they admit maybe they were wrong.

Enforcing fares is one of the most pro-working-class things you can possibly do in a city. Everything downstream improves. Transit becomes safer, more reliable, and ultimately faster. Massive improvement in people’s daily lives who depend on transit to put food on the table.

The city of @Oakland has pulled back on services while its budget has ballooned by 230% just since 2020, ten times the rate of inflation. So that it’s stunningly lazy workforce can avoid going to their office, many services have been changed to a 4-day-a-week schedule versus 5.
Spirit Halloween seeks unused buildings to haunt — where will they go next?
📰 Oakland's city government still allows many of its employees to work from home, and key services like its walk-in permit counter are open only 4 days per week.

A "failing school" that spends $50K per student is just a school that is succeeding at its true purpose (the distribution of rents taken from the public treasury to a privileged class of white collar professionals)
The Nikole Hannah-Jones is brave in some respects, and worth reading, but it still falls back on the claims that schools like PS 307 are underfunded and understaffed relative to other schools, which isn't true.
PS 307 has an average class size of 10 students and spends $52,349 per pupil. We don't know what school Hannah-Jones' daughter attends now, but Stuyvesant is a good example of the type. Stuyvesant spends $21,664 per pupil with an average class size of 29.

For penning her mea culpa, Hannah-Jones has received a good deal of praise. Well, you can count me out of all that. Her actions were morally indefensible and analytically ignorant, and her supposed metamorphosis remains invisible to the naked eye. nationalreview.com/2026/09/w…

Something tells me there’s a very important fact about this “man” being left out of the story - intentionally.
United employees forced a 25 year old woman to return to her seat next to a man who was masturbating because the flight was full. After landing, the airline told the woman it was her responsibility to contact police and gave her a $100 travel credit.

Mamdani's correct that the left, by dropping the ball on extremely basic issues like fraud and public order, has given the right tons of ammo. But the left's patron-client relationship with minority groups is an obstacle to them actually delivering on these issues.
🚨 At the U20 Mayors Summit, Mamdani Says the Left Has Ceded “Quality of Life,” “Efficiency,” and “Fraud and Waste” to the Right
This was one of the more interesting arguments Zohran Mamdani made today at the U20 Mayors Summit, and a reminder that he can be genuinely sharp when he drops the “central casting” routine.
“In New York City, there are certain words that have taken on ideological associations.”
“Quality of life has come to be seen as somehow a right-wing concern. Efficiency… has been taken on as a right-wing concern, rooting out fraud and waste, a right-wing concern.”
Mamdani’s argument is that refusing to engage those issues actually helps the Right.
“If you are staring at an example of social disorder or social inefficiency, and the left refuses to explain either why it has happened or how they will fix it, then the right gets to point at someone in the immediate area and say, ‘That’s who did it.’”
The harder question is how much of the broader Left is actually prepared to follow the advice.
