Bear 2024: If You Leave Him Alone, He'll Leave You Alone

Prosecutors got caught literally doing the Family Guy racist cop bit

I think if young leftist radicals ever succeeded in topling the existing order, whatever you think of it, what would follow would be an order where gun-toting right-wingers exercised much *more* power, not one where they exercised less power.

Thinking about this

I don’t think this special run the Phillies have been on isn’t possible without this ridiculous comeback

Now RFK Jr. wants to use the LP convention to debate Trump. Yes, you heard me right.

We have incredible Libertarian POTUS candidates yet it appears instead of focusing on them, we get to listen to 2 statists on our own stage.
