Already looking forward to what is sure to be a shitshow of a municipal election cycle here in Chicago in 2027
Although I think Chicagoans will be able to agree on one thing: we gotta get Brandon Johnson OUT of City Hall lmao
It's so funny that Shaiel thinks this, because the decent majorities that the Dems earned are gonna render the DSA crazies mostly irrelevant lmao
Angie Nixon lost, so I guess American socialism is cancelled lmao
If AOC is the Democratic nominee in 2028, I'm voting for the Republican.
If JD Vance is the Republican nominee in 2028, I'm voting for the Democrat.
If it's AOC vs. Vance in 2028, I'm renouncing my American citizenship lmfao
An even more startling revelation than anything that happened on election night is that there's going to be a SIXTH "Hunger Games" movie
Even one was too many, why do we need SIX?!
If there's any silver lining to what happened tonight, it's that AES' vote will basically be meaningless in a multi-seat Dem majority.
Some anti-Zionist, Jew-hating candidates are going to win tonight. But I won't let that discourage me. My love for Israel grows stronger every day, and God willing, I will soon be back there, building a great life in the eternal homeland of the Jewish people.
עם ישראל חי 💙🇮🇱
Tonight's results only underscore just how big a favor Trump is doing Israel by dropping the current military aid regime.
Come 2028, the US may have a much more hostile President.
It'll be good for Israel to not be as beholden to the whims of American politicians.
Aside from Michigan's Senate race, I am also very invested in Chicago's school board races.
Hilario Dominguez should absolutely not be allowed to win.
If true, this is honestly great for Israel.
There's a reason that this was something Netanyahu was pushing hard for. The current military aid regime grants the United States too much control over internal Israeli affairs.
🚨 BREAKING 🚨 Trump told Fox News that he agreed with Israel a few months ago to end roughly $4 billion in annual U.S. military assistance. “We will not pay them anymore. They are a successful country. They do not need it. For context, the annual package is $3.8 billion: $3.3 billion in military grants used primarily to purchase American defense equipment and services, plus $500 million for joint missile-defense programs. Much of the money goes to U.S. defense companies.
Conspiracy brain rot is real.
The insane discourse about the recent Learjet incident in Florida serves as ample proof.
"It was a missile!"
"It was DEI!"
"It was an attempt to assassinate the President!"
"It was a Zionist false flag!"
Fucking spare me that retarded bullshit.

If your VERY FIRST reaction to watching a horrific Learjet crash is “That looks fake,” “It was a missile,” or “Where’s the debris?” then congratulations. You’ve just identified yourself as the perfect mark for every conspiracy grifter on the internet.
It’s the same breathtaking stupidity that gave us the 9/11 Pentagon “missile” and “missing debris” conspiracy theories.
A horrific tragedy unfolds before your eyes, and before you know a single fact, your first instinct is to invent a conspiracy. STFU & GTFO!
You’re not “just asking questions.” You’re broadcasting your ignorance, your gullibility, and your complete inability to distinguish evidence from bullshit.
And the people exploiting these tragedies know EXACTLY who you are. They know how to manipulate you, outrage you, and keep you coming back for another helping of manufactured mystery.
They turn human suffering into conspiracy content, and you eagerly spread it for them.
You think you’re exposing a cover-up. You’re actually exposing how easily you can be played.
The grifters have a product. You’re the customer.
Brian Scalabrine would like to have a word with you, Charlie 😤
Charlie Villanueva says a white player has never been the best player in the NBA.
“When was the last time a white player was single-handedly the best player? I love white people. My first nut was with a white girl, so why would I be racist? I’m not racist.”
(Via @ToTheBaha / h/t @NBA__Courtside )
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Charlie Villanueva did not say a white player has never been the best in the NBA or make the quoted remarks. On the To The Baha podcast, he said he did not think a white dude could be the face of the league because "it's a Black league right?"
