anyway the choice america faces going forward is live in the confederacy or do reconstruction for real and purge those motherfuckers from all of public life. and there isn’t really an in-between.

This is fine 🥵🔥🫠

Fake 🍉 flavor > real 🍉 flavor.

Today proves that Republicans were serious about one promise: to cut taxes for the wealthy. All the rest was bullshit.

Republicans in Congress have voted to devastate millions of people across our nation — kicking Americans off their health care, shuttering hospitals, eliminating food assistance, and raising costs. This is Project 2025 in action.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Thanks to Senate Republicans, 17 million people will lose their health care. Thanks to Senate Republicans, three million Americans, including veterans and seniors, will lose food assistance. Thanks to Senate Republicans, families will see their energy bills go up by $400 a year.

This bill is even worse than I thought it would be. I don't know what else to say really. ☹️ www.cnn.com/politics/big...

This is a Hall of Fame reader comment on a very reactionary op-ed about Zohran Mamdani's victory that was published in my local paper today.

These are two very similar stories of Mississippi families torn apart by ICE. But Kerlin Moreno-Orellana's story has gotten way less attention on social media than Kasper Eriksen's did, and thus his family's GoFundMe is getting WAY less support. It's a big disparity.

SAME but with this one lol

Broken clock rule applies, ofc.

Juneteenth calls us to understand the realities of our past, celebrate the resilience and achievements of Black Americans, and align the course of our country toward its founding creed of liberty and justice for all. Wishing everyone a meaningful Juneteenth!

Pro tip: when using self-leveling underlayment, leave a tiny gap in your barrier so it can sneak under and perfectly fill the one spot you absolutely needed to keep open—the shower drain. That’s toilet paper in there. No, it wasn’t part of the plan. Probably. #DIYFail #DrainTheBrain

Today they have crossed a deep red line. We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

Why do we continue to allow corporations that make billions in profits pay less taxes than individual earners in this country? It's insanely stupid.

so it’ll be split into Warner Brothers…and Discovery

So liiiike where can we buy rubber bullets? Current situation seems unfair.

Pride is a celebration. Pride is also a powerful statement about courage, community, and determination. We honor the trailblazers who came before us, join arms with those leading the fight for equality today, and empower the next generation to live boldly, freely, and with joy.

To be effective, our opposition to today's abuses must run alongside a clear picture of what we are actually for - and how everyday life could be better with different leadership.

100 days into this presidency, Americans are paying the price - higher prices, crashing retirement accounts, and broken promises. But the American people are turning, thanks to your voices. Keep it up. It's up to us to demand something better.

Pritzker: The reckoning is here. And now that this culture of timidity is on display, these same do-nothing Democrats want to blame our losses on the defense of Black people, trans kids, and immigrants, instead of on their own lack of guts and gumption.

"Pete Buttigieg delivered a masterful performance last week on comedian Andrew Schulz’s Flagrant podcast, but some liberals aren’t happy about it. It’s as if the 2028 Democratic primary has already begun. 1/3 www.playtyperguy.com/p/pete-butti...

They make it sound like there are millions of dead people getting Social Security checks. But it's just not true.

I want politics to be about a better everyday life. Here's what that can look like:

💥 BREAKING: Levi Strauss shareholders voted today to reject a proposal calling on the company to cease / abolish all DEI efforts (tally TBD). LEVI Board: “Diversity and inclusion principles are critical in ensuring that our products reflect and are relevant to our diverse global consumer base.”

In GA, @runforsomething.net alum Everton Blair decided to challenge an elderly incumbent Democratic member of Congress who couldn't answer a basic friendly question about legislative strategy at a town hall. www.semafor.com/article/04/2...

If we’re serious about more efficient government and better everyday life in America - which we all should be - that means actually improving government, not cutting health care for poor people and slashing support for veterans.

Marriott’s CEO said it straight: “We welcome all… we create opportunities for all… that’s who we are as a company.” He went back to his hotel to find 40K emails from Marriott associates worldwide saying “thank you.” Plenty of CEOs talk. Capuano showed up. Marriott still has my business.

I do think that Democratic voters--whether "Democrat" or not--have done tremendous harm to the electoral prospects of the Dem party through our online behavior. Including myself, here. That doesn't mean I think we've behaved "wrongly." I only mean that it's a dynamic we should recognize.

Fear has a way of being contagious. But courage is also contagious.

Formula 1: Drive to Survive showed up in my Netflix feed the other day. I thought the algorithm was tripping. Last night I was bored and decided to check it out. I ended up binging three episodes of the latest season. I think I'm into Formula 1 now 😈.

NOT TODAY, SATAN!
