PayPal has a tiny clause forbidding spreading fraudulent information or misinformation on the platform. Ya know -- so people can't sell you a magic bean that cures cancer or anything. And conservatives are out here telling on themselves, acting like this about them! ππ

β you have 30 days to explicitly renounce this abomination of a policy or I am permanently closing my account as will millions of others I am sure. Your subjective views on βmisinformationβ or βdiscriminationβ donβt entitle you to your clientsβ money.
I don't get unsettled by television very easily. But Under the Banner of Heaven shook me. Days later I am still unnerved by its raw examination of misogynistic violence within patriarchal religions. A truly gripping and powerful series. Garfield was amazing.
Biden just ignored the narrative and kept focused on the goal. Now he has passed historic investment in America during the same week many in the media declared his presidency was doomed.

The DOJ gets 1 chance to prosecute him. We don't want them rushing. Let them build as strong as a case as they can. This isn't law and order. A grand jury needs to indict him and they'll want to make sure they have more than enough.
Only 78 followers away from 3k. It's been a rough day, but this ultimately meaningless milestone would give me a smile. Anyone want to help me out?

Heavy, longer movie that requires more focus first. Lighter, funny movie later to wash the mind clean and prevent nuclear dreams.
@AndyOstroy
You're ignoring the fact that Kamala didn't catch on because Black Americans were already committed to voting for Biden. Don't pretend they won't give her the same respect next time. The road to the nomination goes through Black voters, so who else do you think it would be?
@BFriedmanDC
How about we never should have gone in there to begin with? Jesus Christ. Most of the 9/11 hijackers were Saudis. We never caught Bin Laden in Afghanistan, and when we did, it was a SEAL team. We didn't need to occupy and nation build to target terrorists.
So many new followers! But so many followers remain strangers on here. If you want to not be a stranger, reply to this tweet with something about yourself.

No, it's not that they don't know. It's that art and storytelling requires antagonists and characters with a range of morality.
These MAGA fascists aren't just fascists -- they're cowards. Because they lie and obfuscate their fascism. They oppose democracy, equal rights, and the rule of law in favor of racial and religious supremacy. They're fascist but afraid to say so.
@MatthewStadlen
I thought everyone knew this. He had a couple drinks with her before she met Harry, so he's basically obsessed with her like a rejected loser.
@whstancil
It was intentionally written to preserve involuntary servitude, which Southern states profited from by filling their prisons with Black men and starting convict-leasing programs to white farmers. That's just fact.

This will be the biggest prosecution in American history. They have to build a very complex case. They are obviously doing it. We see it happening. So it's not fair to presume they're not doing their best.
@HeathMayo
No way. He absolutely should have. This is Good Trouble, as John Lewis would say. It was absolutely the right thing to do and it worked. He got a ton of media coverage that countered Abott's propaganda.
@nathanalberson
Whatever makes you happy. I don't want obedience in a wife; I want a partner. An equal. A friend. If I wanted obedience, I would have gotten a dog.
@GBBranstetter
Kinda like how conservatives view Western Civilization: superior and enduring yet somehow also will collapse if we allow immigrants or change children's toys.
@BeautyofRodin
First, Pete is out there because he IS messaging FOR Dems. Secondly, Dem messaging is fine. Republicans voted against vets getting cancer care because they're mad Dems are fighting inflation. How's that for messaging? There's no magic words that are going to make Dems win.
@nytimes
This is bordering on gaslighting. Y'all create a narrative, push that narrative, and then report people believing that narrative as if it's fact. Maybe Biden is unpopular because you and the rest of the corporate media made it that way.

And if Jimmy had just gone to therapy, Walter White would've never been a successful criminal. Wild how the shows are really an examination of the damage done by men's egos.
@GeesNYC
@OccupyDemocrats
My hot take is this: If a former president is to be charged and tried, it will be the biggest thing to happen in American judicial history. It absolutely cannot be rushed and cannot be viewed as political retribution. It would be a perilous undertaking.
@DrHarryThomas
The "genius" apparently thinks we need to force women to give birth against their will instead of creating better socio-economic conditions and enacting policies to encourage ppl to have children, because of course he does. Elon sees ppl as a labor resource.

@paulkrugman
That is inflation, it's just got a specific cause that's separate from those effecting other goods. In this case, bird flu killed off so may birds, it decreased the supply of eggs, driving up costs.
@washingtonpost
It's 2023. Everybody knows what it's like out west. It's rural Americans that have fevered delusions about what life in the city is like.
@Grahfvillainy
The monotony of inevitable and constant death is kind of a major theme. I love both shows and this is a great example of why comparing them doesn't work. The Wire is much more grounded in reality, whereas the Sopranos is often allegorical.
@MonicaCrowley
Boomers and their myth-like hero worship of their parents' generation is absolutely ridiculous. It's seriously prevented them from critically examining history or present day policy.

@Angry_Staffer
They've been devoting hundreds of millions of dollars and hundreds of attorneys toward this. They started at the bottom, the rioter, and work up. That's how all investigations work.
@BeautyofRodin
We need to stop pretending there's some magical combination of words that are suddenly going to make Dems popular with white grievance folks.
@PamKeithFL
We're not going to punish fascist coup plotters or traitorous elected officials. It's clear. And thanks to Joe Manchin, we can't even vote them out.
@mkraju
I know I'm stating the obvious here, but that's because it makes me feel like my brain is bleeding out of my nose. How can this level of doublespeak and blatant lies exist? How is it not openly mocked and challenged the moment its uttered?
Probably the most popular tweet I'll ever have, so I should at least mention that I'm an author. If you like smart crime drama with complex characters like BCS, check out my next book - available for pre-order now.

The FBI calls those raids. Despite Twitter semantics, I have yet to find any official language or definitions that draw distinctions between these things.
@whstancil
You're the saying the 13A didn't purposely allow for convict labor? Boilerplate or not, the language does preserve involuntary servitude for convicts.
@PalmerReport
It's also possible he will face charges for January 6th, his efforts to coerce the Sec State of Georgia to overturn the election, and tax crimes in NY.
@banalplay
Lol the Trump threat is real BUT... You won't lift your finger to stop it and how it will impact the lives of all Americans -- even those you love.
@ThoughtSlime
"All these people wanting equality and rights make me so mad, I'm going to vote for fascism!" I don't think this is a real thing. I think it's a thin excuse.
