+1 for ntfy it’s great. I’m using their free servers though and it just routes my curl’d alerts to the phone app. Will have to look into self hosting it that sounds neat, love that you repurposed an old phone for that.

Yeah, and so could Papa New Guinea. Turns out you can say any kind of random bullshit.

lol yeah dude the shoe throwing incident will forever be hilarious. and you’ve gotta hand it to Dubya, at least he was spry enough to see it coming and duck out of the way in time.

Dubya was supposed to be the dumbest president ever. Trump is so much worse, and happened so quickly after W’s term. It’s a bit shocking until you realize who actually wields the levers of power in American government: the rich/corporations. They control it all, including for whom we get to “vote” in the first place. POTUS being a useful idiot is quite beneficial for them.

Bibi said no, simple as.

“Option” - lmao, already providing themselves cover to do nothing. Dems are so beyond pathetic.

Dems are turning what should have been a blue tsunami this year into a tepid blue wave with all the left-bashing they’re engaged in, and this is in the face of a pure and unadulterated fascist regime. They’re totally clueless on how to meet this moment.

By the time they’re done doing worse than jack shit over the next 2 years, Repugs will be back to winning elections.

The 2 party system and the delusion of checks and balances have failed this country beyond reason. Those who claim to represent us are torn between doing the bidding of oligarchs, or foreign countries’ governments, while our people are left suffering and robbed of our very dignity.

Well and truly disgustipated.

One does not simply declare bankruptcy 6 times by “learning how to run a business” sweaty

Patriot Act coming home to roost. Right to privacy has been getting rinsed for 25 years now.

It was never the stroke, Fett has always been a douchenozzle. Can’t hide it anymore now that he’s the next Manchin/Sinema, nor does he care to as he cashes those Israeli checks.

Jeffries is such garbage, I wish someone would primary his ass already.

Adopting right wing framing on M4A is so typical of an empty suit like him. Yes, abolish private insurance, that’s the idea dipshit - and replace it with the objectively better Medicare insurance to make doctor’s lives easier and help patients get desperately needed care.

Oh sorry I misread your comment. That’s a good question. Perhaps we can look at the current Spain/US relationship for some clues. They haven’t been letting US Air Force utilize bases there throughout the genocide in Gaza. US admin has been pissy about it, but that’s the extent so far afaik.

It will probably be ok, Iran has been working around bullshit American sanctions since the 1970s. They aren’t new to this game by any means.

Epstein out of the spotlight was one.

The other was providing cover for more Israeli land theft. They’ve now taken more of Gaza, as well as large swaths of Lebanon for themselves.

Well he did refer to vets as “suckers and losers” in his first term, so I’m pretty sure it is the latter.

Nah, you kidding?! Harris was perfect for Biden admin.

That question doesn’t make sense. You might as well be asking why Democrats didn’t rally behind Nikki Haley. Still, my answer remains the same:

It’s wrong to blame the voters for a garbage candidate. Please stop doing that, and demand better of our “representatives” instead.

The anointed one gleefully embracing the most lethal neo-conservative partnership in the world, that Harris?

You speak of facts, but conveniently leave out the fact that Trump walloped her so badly he won by a wider margin than there were self-identified protest vote progressives to begin with. It literally made no difference how they voted.

I hope she runs again in ‘28 and has to face an actual primary vote where she will once again receive single digit support. Who knows, maybe if she moves even further right she can pick up some more maga voters and break into the double digits lmao.

Same McKinsey group consultants making millions by telling them to say the line again, too.

Completely agree. She isn’t ready for president, but she could massively help the movement at this time by ousting Chuck Schumer.

The liberals trying to convince her go for the White House at this premature juncture are saboteurs.

To be clear, I think she should run eventually and could make a fantastic president, just not yet. Please AOC, do the right thing and oust that crusty old Chucklefuck.

Almost every election is the Dems’ to lose. Unfortunately they tend to deliver.

Dems need to lead with bold, sincere policy proposals to meaningfully improve Americans’ living conditions in order to win. We have many young socialists winning primaries and elections with such a strategy, however the establishment dinosaurs are terrified to deliver for their constituents instead of their donors.

If the old guard refuse to get out of the way, and once again return to the familiar identity politics and pro-corporate talking points, they will once again manage to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
