  • Martin is the second person to attempt to enter Mar-a-Lago with the intent to kill the president, and the third in general. In 2024, Ryan Routh attempted to assassinate Donald Trump at the Florida estate. He was recently sentenced to life in prison. And of course, Thomas Matthew Crooks attempted to kill Trump in Pennsylvania in 2024. All three were white men.

    I don’t know how many more trump supporters trying to kill trump it will take for people to realize he’s actually losing support…

    But at least they’re not attacking innocent people.


  • Neoliberals and old school Republicans have always been friendly because they’ve always had the same goals…

    Like, you’re right, but after we had to spend 4 years watching Biden do the same things and explicitly say he wished we could just go back to it any chance he got, it’s kind of like saying the sky is blue

    Even the DNC realized it a year ago. And they don’t exactly keep their finger on the pulse.

    Jefferies and Schumer are lame ducks and have been since this congress started.

    We’ll capture majorities in the midterms and the next congress Dems will be free to vote for the leadership they want, which should match what dem voters want.

    At least closer than Biden/Schumer/Jeffries was








  • I know literally nothing about Latin

    Honestly learning that Greek/Latin roots and prefixes is super easy and will make people assume you’re really smart. It’s 100% something Dennis would do

    Like, in a lot of different fields, there’s all these “complicated” terms that you need a degree to understand…

    99% of the time whoever named it just crammed some Greek/Latin together.

    Like, “Dominus” meaning “lord” makes when you think about all the Dom words

    “Est” is is just “is”

    “Spiritus” obviously talking about spirits

    And “sanctum” like “sanctimonious” references something that’s holy.

    Seriously though, it’s always been weird to me that’s not a normal part of learning English and most other languages. Latin/Greek is what most European languages are built on, if you learn like 1-200 roots and prefixes from both, you’ll be able to understand a shit ton of any European language. Because they’re mostly covering the stuff that’s hard to understand without language.
