One of the worst:

"What, uniquely, does writing do? It compels thought."

The above is wrong in every aspect.

I mean, if you must, "what does writing do that's unique?"

Second, and this should be profoundly obvious, many things other than writing compel thought.

You are not wrong.

But if Dems called for impeachment, they'd have to go back to work. Calling for 25A, however, buys them time. Let someone else take responsibility this ONE TIME.

Are genocide threats a big deal? Yes. Was it close? Sure. But turns out, they didn't need to end the vacay after all
Discharging Trump under the 25th Amendment would ultimately require a 2/3 vote in the House and a 2/3 vote in the Senate.

Impeachment requires a majority in the House and removal requires 2/3 of the Senate.

If I’m reading 25A correctly, impeachment is easier. Please let me know if I’m wrong!

SF SOMA Neighbors (aka SF SOMA Scum) allege that the hyper-concentration of poverty in SOMA is not just upsetting, it doesn't just slow emergency response times. It's illegal. Why? It's "segregation." Too many poor in one area. They merely seek to "desegregate."

We got hit with a community standards violation for posting links asking you to contact businesses about the Forest Service dismantling. But it worked Patagonia listened. Because of the issue on FB, we’re building a dedicated website for that kind of action. We’re hoping to have it live by Monday!

Detained by ICE, he missed multiple cancer treatments. Now he’s in hospice.
Some immigrants with chronic health problems were swept up by ICE in Minnesota, leading to missed medications and, for one man, missed chemotherapy sessions.

That simply isn't true. Newsom IS absolutely willing to take them on, on a national level, which he's said many times. They'll just leave California and go somewhere else. A 1% tax might keep them here, not 5%.

Can we pls try not to reject a viable candidate without understanding their position.
Any politician unwilling to take on the billionaires is not your friend.

Pay attention, Americans.

Regardless of one’s feeling about it, such a public response to a political leader is news, and deliberately failing to mention it is self-censorship. It’s like if reporters agreed not to report on the man who threw a shoe at George Bush. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.

The idea that body cams are supposed to do something is so absurd.

The problem isn’t lack of documentation. Literally everyone is recording encounters with ICE.
