Even though the collapse has been sudden, the decline in resilience/rise in democratic vulnerability has been gradual, with every voluntary and...

I don't see how you fix the problem of treasonous judges, completely dismantled government departments, pardoned traitors, tens of thousands of brown...

I don't think the MAGA movement is going to survive in the post-Trump world, but the structural damage to US democracy will be permanent which will...

The US basically suffered the same level of democratic backsliding in 9 months that took Russia and Hungary nearly a decade. At least in those...

Wow, you've gotten dark. :eek:

They used it as political capital in last week's elections. With those done, they didn't have a reason to maintain the pretense that they care.

And....they caved with nothing to show for it.

The fundamental problem with Democrats (including two of their SCOTUS justices) is that they refuse to admit that we are no longer a democracy....

How SCOTUS is gonna come down on tariffs is a pure guessing game. They've got plenty of material from their backgrounds to justify both sides, and...

When did mocking insane Zionist talking points, claims and actions in front of hard core Zionists become a way to discredit Palestinians? These...

About 70% according to betting markets.

Taking money from the Zionist to discredit the Palestinians but doing it on the forum with essentially no traffic - very nice

Bibi gives me $7,000 per post.

Has anyone seen the evidence for early microbial life they found on Mars? It's pretty solid stuff, as far as I can tell (even PBS is like, yeah, its...
