Amos Goldberg, Professor of Genocide Studies at The Hebrew University in Jerusalem "Yes, it is genocide. It's so difficult and painful to admit it, but we can no longer avoid this conclusion. Jewish history will henceforth be stained" Is there anyone more qualified and unbiased?

Interesting answers. Leading responses: cost of living. Also war and Dem obsession with celebrities.

Why did so many working class New Yorkers vote for Donald Trump last week — and even more not vote at all? I went to Hillside Ave in Queens and Fordham Rd in the Bronx to find out.



Apparently to Taibbi there's nothing insane about Trump's appointments.

This is why Mosler has showered the MMT movement with subsidies—he doesn't want to pay taxes. "Understanding monetary operations" = printing money rather than taxing hedge fund guys.

Dems are impressively incapable of introspection or taking responsibility for their failures. Their failures are always someone else’s fault. Putin, Stein, anti-genocide protesters. Never miserable policies and dull candidates.

Congratulations to everyone who made this happen. Hope that protest vote was worth it.



Fun polemic. This guy doesn’t like Gaetz!

This screed, by a prominent right wing media figure, suggests tensions are already quite high within the GOP—two months before the Trump administration even starts. thetransom.com/p/matt-gaetz-i…

The alleged assault took place in 2017, which also happened to be the year Hegseth had a child with his mistress - a married mom of three - while he was still married to his 2nd wife (whom he'd cheated on his first wife with).



How do you know this?

You may not wanna hear this, but the campus protests last spring played a huge role in how many people envisioned wokeness and elitism. These protests did more harm than good.
