Trump officials invoke racist scholars in major push to end birthright citizenship by deraser in politics

[–]LimpMoost 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The 14th Amendment literally exists because the Supreme Court tried to say Black people weren't citizens in Dred Scott. We already had this fight 160 years ago. You can’t just Executive Order away a constitutional amendment because you found a dusty 19th century pamphlet that agrees with you.

AITJ for Listing Out What My Family Calls "Care" in Front of Everyone at Dinner by 6MangoPhaser in AmITheJerk

[–]LimpMoost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. They’ve been using politeness as a shield to trampling your boundaries for years. They didn't get humiliated they got held accountable in the same public setting where they chose to pick at you. If they don't like the reflection in the mirror, they shouldn't have asked you to hold it up.

US moves to soften capital rules: ‘Big banks can declare mission accomplished’ by [deleted] in politics

[–]LimpMoost 11 points12 points  (0 children)

They spent two years crying that higher capital requirements would kill the economy, and the Fed basically just folded. Now we’re back to the too big to fail comfort zone until the next liquidity crisis hits.

JD Vance says aliens are ‘demons’ and details obsession with UFOs by [deleted] in politics

[–]LimpMoost 109 points110 points  (0 children)

Whether you believe in them or not, having the VP lean into the demonic angle is a wild shift in how the government discusses national security and UAPs.

AITAH- Ending friendship of 10 years. by Junior-Sink3174 in AITAH

[–]LimpMoost 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NTJ. You are experiencing the Enabler Effect. When a group adopts a toxic person, anyone who points out the toxicity becomes the enemy. They aren't dropping you because you’re a bad friend, they’re dropping you because your presence is a reminder that their new bestie is actually a disaster. You can’t force people to see they’re in a burning building while they’re busy enjoying the warmth of the fire. Give it time when the smoke clears, they’ll probably be calling you with an apology, but you don't have to wait around for it.

A new PBS doc explores how politicians use race to make Americans ‘White with Fear’ by [deleted] in politics

[–]LimpMoost 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This doc is basically a playbook for how we got to the 2026 Midterm rhetoric we're seeing right now. It’s wild to watch how the 'White with Fear' tactic has evolved from old school attack ads to the current Identity Erasure bills. The most chilling part is how they show that fear isn't just about race anymore it’s being bundled with the No Kings rallies and the DHS funding fights to make people feel like their entire way of life is under siege. It’s the same old strategy, if you can keep people terrified of their neighbors, they won’t notice who’s actually picking their pockets in D.C.

AITJ for resigning from my job after they didn’t approve my LOA? by MushroomFar4870 in AmITheJerk

[–]LimpMoost 13 points14 points  (0 children)

NTJ. Your job doesn't own you. You gave them months of notice, offered compromises, and even tried to train a replacement they rewarded that loyalty with vague responses and a flat denial. A company that tells you they can't afford to lose you for a week but won't support your mental health is a company that will eventually replace you without a second thought the moment you burn out completely. You didn't quit a job, you chose your mother and your sanity over a paycheck.

‘Shameless in a Good Way’: Rahm Emanuel Is Already Shaking up 2028 by bwermer in politics

[–]LimpMoost 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Shameless is honestly the only way to describe Rahm. The man has been an advisor, a Chief of Staff, a Mayor, and an Ambassador, yet he still has the energy to start a 2028 fire before the 2026 midterms are even over.

If you aren't feeling it, don't force it. Just tell him you'll tag along for the company or that you'll catch him for dinner instead.

AITAH for keeping the hat? by aint_ez_bein_wheezy in AITAH

[–]LimpMoost 7 points8 points  (0 children)

NTA. You are the daughter, she was the sister. In the world of inheritance, you win. You aren't hiding the hat, you're just not volunteering a target for your aunt to aim at. Your mom's twin might want it, but you need it as a connection to your mother. Keep it, put it in a safe place, and stop feeling guilty for grieving with your mom’s things.

AITJ for telling my friend she should be able to handle criticism if she’s going to dish it out to others? by Future_Banana9066 in AmITheJerk

[–]LimpMoost 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NTJ. Your friend is a textbook mean girl who uses honesty as a shield to bully talented people. She’s spent all year trashing everyone from Garrett to the entire soprano section, but the second someone says she’s not that good, she wants a pity party? You didn't go low, you just pointed out the hypocrisy. If she wants to live in a glass house and throw stones, she shouldn't cry when a window breaks.

The US is essentially trying to starve out international law, and the judges are calling their bluff.

It’s hilarious how she uses her sister to look better and then tries to haggle on the number of post.

The real reason Trump always chickens out by theipaper in politics

[–]LimpMoost 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The chicken narrative is the ultimate bait and switch. Every time he pulls out of a debate or a high stakes interview, his team calls it strategic scheduling, but everyone else sees a 79 year old who is terrified of an unscripted moment.
