7/ If you or others opt out, you do not send a message. You simply hand them the field. Once they hold the field, they rewrite the rules so that the next election is not a fair one. The clean rematch you think is waiting on the other side of this does not come. GOP will never hand back power - ever

10/ Win first. Argue policy after. If we lose, they will not just govern, they will lock the system. Every country that lost that bet said the same thing beforehand: we thought we had more time. We do not have more time. 129 days is it. The person who must step up is the person you see in the mirror

1/ Every day we spend fighting each other is a day we hand them. They are counting on our division. They need us fractured. 129 days left, & unity is not a nice idea. It is only thing that has ever actually worked. We unite or we lose - it’s that simple #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy

Tens of thousands celebrated Budapest Pride, the first since Viktor Orbán’s ousting.

Big brother made sure to give his sister the ball, thrown by her favorite player (Jake Mangum of the Bucs). She was wearing his jersey at the time and Jake said it was the first time he saw his jersey in the wild.

Just 10 people have already poured $617 MILLION into this year’s midterm elections. In the entire 2008 presidential cycle, the last election before Citizens United, total billionaire spending was $16 million. This is not sustainable. We need to get Big Money out of our democracy.

Getting caught up on some big stories, and this news about #NY21 should be on everyone's radar. Rs nominated a MAGA crackpot. Ds nominated a normal dairy farmer. In this environment and with these candidates, we could very well replace Elise Stefanik with a Dem. www.politico.com/news/2026/06...

As a Watergate historian, this might be the dumbest and worst take we’ve seen from JD Vance in a long time. And it’s also a complete misunderstanding of Nixon and Watergate.

"A Constitutional right millions of us had lived with for nearly 50 years disappeared in a single morning with a vote,” local organizer Marie Follayttar said, WGME reported. “And every single one of us who fought to stop it knew exactly how we had got there. Susan Collins." #SusieTheEnabler

Justice Samuel Alito: “Political discourse by prominent public figures is increasingly couched in terms that would have scandalized the public just a short time ago... But... they are insufficient to show that the termination of Haiti’s TPS designation was based on the race of the Haitian people."

A poll worker in New York just got a visit from ICE agents while working Election Day and was told to delete an Instagram post. This is voter suppression. This is what a police state looks like. We cannot normalize this! #USDemocracy #Pinks newrepublic.com/post/212340/...

Music legend's estate refuses to let Trump play beloved hit at Freedom 250 rally: report #RawStory

I remember Trump's motorcade rolling through the newly coated reflecting pool and wondering how wise is that. Well, now we know from the demented world of Donald, where he never does anything wrong: The problem is really some anonymous vandal with a knife who cut a massive gash.

FLAG: The Postmaster General confirmed at a Senate hearing that under a new proposed rule, the Postal Service would not deliver mail-in ballots in states that decline to hand over sensitive data about voters to the federal government. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

From yesterday's Politics Chat with @hcrichardson.bsky.social Watch now on YouTube: https://youtube.com/live/KnvXXAkgMqg

Trump on one of the alleged reflecting pool vandals: "He's a member or a big payer to ActBlue. He's a big Hillary supporter, a big supporter of sleepy Joe Biden. This is a very political thing."

Trump calls for sending federal troops into cities: "I'd love to do Chicago because Chicago is potentially great city. But you're gonna lose it. It's gotta be done. I'd love to do it in Los Angeles. I'd love to do it in NYC. We remove the bad people from those cities so they never come back"

"The last leg of this cursed stool enlists the mailman to suppress the vote. Trump’s EO directs the Postal Service to create a 'Mail-In & Absentee Participation List' — constructed from stolen state voter rolls fed into an illegal database — & prohibit delivery of ballots to anyone who’s not on it."

Call it the "I f*cked everything up, bail me out" bill. thehill.com/policy/defen...

1/ GOP did not cut you or your family's disability benefits. They just made applying for them a 7-month nightmare run by a gutted SSA office and a crashing website portal. That is not a bug in the system. It is the policy & it was intentional 🧵 #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy

Trump has turned the White House into a 24/7 corruption operation. This is a national crisis. Trump thinks the public will stop paying attention. So I went to the Senate floor to call his bluff. I told the ENTIRE STORY of his 500 days of corruption. 1/ Here it is - in one🧵

Decision Desk HQ projects Cait Conley wins the NY US House 17 Democratic Primary #DecisionMade: 9:38 PM EDT

The growing wave of progressive populists understand that raising taxes on billionaires is overwhelmingly popular — 77% of voters support doing so, including 71% of Independents and 65% of Republicans.

This is the brilliant system that allowed Trump to stay in office the first time, and allowed his voters to vomit him up on the nation again in 2024.

I would like a side-by-side account of the cost of: the Iran war, the reflecting pool, the ballroom, the Qatari plane, the WWE fight; DOJ settlement payoffs (like to Ashli Babbitt) and any other vanity projects I'm missing; compared with all of the "waste and fraud" supposedly saved by the DOGE cuts

WOW!! JD Vance got the Iranians to AGREE to the SAME thing we had under OBAMA in the agreement that TRUMP pulled out of! All it took was months of war, 300 billion to Iran, and one of the biggest US capitulations in history. ART OF THE DEAL, BABY!!

The 🤡 effect!

Ossoff: Because in our time, what those who build ballrooms and monuments to themselves, who rake in billions through foreign princes while the people's savings vanish, along with their hospitals, what they hate the most is when the people try to hold them accountable at the polls.
