Hopefully she gets on BSky soon so it’s easier to fundraise www.cityandstateny.com/politics/202...

It’s funny that Harvard has been a consistent target for reactionary campaigns, and not one has been dedicated to ousting Larry Summers, an openly political figure who was friends with Jeffrey Epstein; meanwhile, it’s a fine-toothed comb for *checks notes* Black women.

@dem8z.bsky.social your twitter may have been hacked, unless you sent this DM lol

@bsky.app last week my DMs were cut off. Moderation said I could not be trusted. Hours later, you said it was a mistake. Then you cut off them off again—but said it was my fault, tho wouldn't explain (before turning them back on.) Maybe @sarahkendzior.bsky.social's ban is a mistake, too?

Once again, if you wrote a story in which the jetsetting corrupt FBI chief took a government plane to the "Boondoggle Ranch" an editor would tell you to get a different job, because you're not cut out for writing believable stories.

Records obtained by ProPublica indicate that food banks across the country were expecting more than 27 million pounds of chicken, 2 million gallons of milk, 10 million pounds of dried fruit and 60 million eggs that never arrived. (Published October)

Oh that's a shame. Hope you're able to figure it out soon enough.

WATCH — @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social : “My amendment would redirect that $40 BILLION from Argentina to fund the ACA subsidies for two years… a far better use of taxpayer dollars.” Why do we have money for Argentina while our own people lose their health care? How does this make us great?

Republican party is officially dead. It is a criminal enterprise. A major money grab after another. And evil..no conscience -starving people and innocent people are being grabbed up hourly in this country is beyond tragic.

@dem8z.bsky.social I think you've been hacked on Twitter. I got a bizarre DM from your account over there and the account is posting all sorts of random nonsense.

That’s the best part!

I once saw someone throw out the pot likker after cooking collards. Still smdh over that.

I've said it on here before & nobody believed me. Collard greens & feta were born for each other. Make yourself a collards & feta frittata. You'll think you've died & gone to heaven. (Does not apply if you use canned collards or American feta.) This message is brought to you by tonight's dinner.

I want a prestige opinion column so I can write drivel like this. Shapiro is great, no disrespect. But PA isn’t NYC. The future of the Democratic Party is what we make it

Like Dip-n-Dots, he’s the ice cream of the future that never arrives

it's just really funny to be like "the guy passed over to be the democratic veep candidate is the future."

Look at what this garish, classless, tasteless fool has done to the People’s House.

Today is the publication day for WITHOUT CONSENT, a book I am so proud to share with the world, and that the New York Times Book Review says "is years — decades — overdue." Read more, and order in your preferred format from your favorite retailer here: www.sarahweinman.com/book/without...

This point absolutely correct and I will add that Mamdani demonstrates that an insurgency, even one with real moral clarity and anger at the status quo, can still be cheerful and inviting.

I'm going to actively say at this point that I don't think people should donate to any Dem-run PACs. What guarantee do we have that they won't give the money to cowards to stave off primary challengers? I mean, it rather feels like the reverse will happen.

Outraged by the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, a wilderness survival trainer spent years undercover climbing the ranks of right-wing militias. He didn’t tell police or the FBI. He didn’t tell family or friends. The one person he told was ProPublica reporter @josh-kaplan.bsky.social. (Published January)

It was a major mistake that the Senate didn’t hold high-profile hearings and investigations into the corrupt Roberts Court when ProPublica was breaking the scandals. Now that same corrupt Court is blowing up NIH, NSF, and all of US basic science. Our failure to pick a big fight with the Court 1/

Hello @support.bsky.team why has @sarahkendzior.bsky.social been suspended without explanation?????

Average healthcare costs in the US: Giving birth? $18,000 Cancer treatment? $150,000 One month ICU stay? Between 30k and 150k. That’s not including copays, deductibles, interest and all the other hoops you have to jump through. Cost in Canada? $0. Cost in the UK? $0. Cost in Australia? $0.

"some people spread happiness wherever they go, others whenever they go" -Oscar Wilde

Bluesky suspended Sarah Kendzior today for no reason whatsoever. She just shared excerpts of her articles, which were as always incisive and not offensive at all. Hey @pfrazee.com this is super not OK. I know her- we've interacted a fair bit via chats and her work is essential.

That so many people with a job still need benefits just to feed their kids is the real moral declaration of bankruptcy of the USA.

Don't forget the trillion dollars in spending cuts for those who need it, just to enable a trillion dollars of tax breaks for those who really, *really* don't need any more.

Our problem is inequality and unaffordability 🤑

We could’ve extended Amtrak Acela High-Speed Rail from Washington, D.C. to Miami for less than the amount the Regime pissed away on Personal Luxuries and State-Sponsored Terrorism

The reason why I'm so angry has a lot to do with the lives that will be lost — people are absolutely going to die as a direct result of Senate Democrats folding on health care. It also has a lot to do with the suffering that was endured — people were struggling to get by without food assistance. 🧵

Oh, my. It’s really cold out there this morning

When will people learn… 😡 Trump DESTROYS EVERYTHING he touches 😡😡

Hey this is today. 😊

Starting day 2 of this multi day event

In the most predictable development ever, Mike Johnson is not committing to hold a House vote on ACA subsidies

Here’s what’s really obscene: Dems want to keep the ACA fight going because they think it’s their ‘winner’ issue for the midterms. They do not care about healthcare.

And I've been doing politics for long enough to know clearly that the entire Senate Democratic caucus agreed to this decision to fold. Open your eyes. The 8 who "broke" did so with the complete blessing of Schumer and their colleagues. You don't have to play along because this is not a game. The end

Hey, a lot of people are talking about changing affiliation from Democratic to Independent. Let me tell you why you shouldn’t do that in Colorado. One of the main ways to get a primary challenge candidate on a ballot is to caucus for your party. You need to be registered as a Dem to caucus.

Noam Chomsky: "In the US, there is basically one party - the business party. It has two factions, called Democrats and Republicans, which are somewhat different but carry out variations on the same policies. By and large, I am opposed to those policies. As is most of the population."

In a functional party system, this kind of capitulation in the face of authoritarianism could mean the end of the Democratic Party. In our system, it could mean the end of the two party system. Neither party can represent the pro-democracy majority. It's time for something new.

What is the point of a political party that will not fight for the people?

That the vice president of the United States and new leader of the Republican Party welcomes a coalition with gutter antisemites and racists with outwardly genocidal politics feels like big news!

“In reality, because targeting is so easy, we have seen governments use surveillance malware to spy on a broad range of people, including relatively minor political opponents, activists, and journalists…”
