The Welsh Parliament has passed a landmark law making it a crime for election candidates to lie to help their political campaign. It also includes a recall mechanism which allows constituents to vote on removing members of Parliament who behave improperly. We need this in the US and more.

Demonizing someone who thinks he is better than everyone else because he is white is *not* the same as demonizing someone who is black because he wants to be treated the same as everyone else. JD Vance is an ignorant apologist for White Supremacy.

JD Vance makes excuses for white nationalists: "When you demonize a guy because he's white, it's just as evil as when you demonize a guy because he's Black. When you demonize a guy because he's white ... some people will get radicalized into some very dangerous ideas."

Replacing American workers with foreign workers so you don't have to pay Americans a decent wage is actually peak Capitalism, but this answer just proves that "Socialism" means "Everything that I don't like."

This is the financial equivalent of throwing paper towels at hurricane victims. This little prick is going to toss me 8 dollars a month while he plunders billions.

You’re right—that plane shouldn’t have gone there. That’s my fault, and I should have made sure there wasn’t a terminal in the landing path. Would you like me to call emergency services, or assist with lining up takeoffs?

You would have thought RFK Jr. would have spoken out against the destruction of his uncle’s memorial. But, apparently, he doesn’t use his position to protect his own family—just hurt ours.

He's so stupid *and* fascist that he thinks "repressive" is a compliment.

Lots of folks are comparing McConnell’s vote today to Feinstein’s finals days in the senate. The main difference is that Feinstein was co-sponsoring legislation to expand voting rights, while McConnell voted to cut SNAP and end environmental protections.

There have been so many impeachable offenses, but lying about how you were a hero on a day that 2,753 people died in NYC in the 9/11 disaster—when you were on the other side of town, safely calling local media to brag about how you now had the tallest downtown building—is such a despicable one
