Northwoods Walmart cashier bemoaning climate change. Truth can still win.

Good.

Make Rubio and Hegseth Iran’s Butler

I will crawl over broken glass to help elect literally anyone who runs on enforcing FARA

I'll go out on a limb, but that is not an argument that is going to work.

As a hermit in the suburbs*, I find this intriguing. *portion of the city

So they’re saying we have to fire everybody who remains…

shouts to everyone out there getting elon musk's ass

lots of news from the GET HIS ASS beat today

Is Toyota actually doing this? I embrace and cheer it if they are, but I think they’re but a toe in on this path at this point.

Yes, this, and also: I’d take people like M&snick more seriously on this specific issue if they didn’t repeat, over and over again, misleading or wrong talking points about tort claims and the legal system.

cringe, for lack of a better word, is good. cringe works. cringe cuts through, clarifies, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit. cringe, its forms - in life, in money, in love, knowledge - has marked the upward surge of mankind.

This is what people need to understand: if we really are being pressed, backs to the wall, you want normies, moms, retired teachers, nurses, to be out in the streets. Being a dick about this is the dumbest form of politics. Be thankful normal PTO parents realize that this is a moment to step up.

Never forget the spray can hair from act 1 of this evil escapade.

"The pink-hat-wearing liberal women who have marched consistently against Trump...are regularly discarded as “wine moms.' But this is wrong. Those marches mattered." Agree very much with @aselrod.bsky.social here: Wine mom politics is good.

Most of the blue dots are bad news (e.g., Ettingermentum, various permutations of Krassenstein, et al.)

Good riddance. Hopefully something great can be commissioned in its place. Opportunity in the ashes.

No.

Yes, a vote for Platner is a vote FOR Chuck Schumer.

Massive respect to Jim Doyle here. If he isn’t extending his time here on earth, he’s surely making it more bearable. [If you’re reading this, you should be doing more core strength exercises].

This is a plan a Republican would come up with to destroy the new Democratic base of high income wage earners in high productivity area. It conveniently excludes the 199A handout that gives Yglesias a lower marginal tax rate than a school teacher.

Save your overripe produce

Too many of you are posting about Rowling, when you should be posting about Rawlings. The sweet sound of the ball hitting the web of a glove, the crack of the bat. It’s opening day, go out there and catch a few innings of your favorite squadron.

I respect the OP, but we really don’t need another round of this. The reason there’s no protests is because opposition to this war is probably 80 percent among college students.

If every MAGA Republican were offered $500k from a foreign nation to sell out the US, they would take it. And the reason I know that is because they are currently doing so for a far smaller sum.

We can make a better world.

Olivia Nuzzi, who got away writing a sympathetic, soft-focus profile of RFK, Jr. (and who later tried to sleep with him) published a whole piece on how Biden didn’t recognize her in a rope line scrum.

The man is a disgrace to New Haven. Very Orange, Connecticut behavior, almost East Haven-esque.

congrats to sam moyn on getting the coveted "even the liberal [blank]" endorsement from reactionaries eager to destroy equal citizenship

I don't quite but this explains Roberts, but I also imagine right wing CLERKS are in discords that would get you 20 to life in Germany

NEW: The FBI went down to Georgia, looking for some ballots to seize. Now, in an Atlanta courtroom tomorrow morning, the government must defend a search warrant built on recycled fraud claims & glaring omissions. My primer on Fulton County’s battle for ballots: www.lawfaremedia.org/article/fult...

Don’t say the danger sign wasn’t posted at the Platner trailhead

Seinfeld plot: Jerry bootlegs ‘Death Blow’

🎯(Warren endorsed him because she can’t quit cranks like Matt Stoller, whose pitch Platner mouths on the trail like it’s his own).

“Dumb McNamara” zeteo.com/p/the-thug-o...

Yes. I've worked in weather and media for 30 years, so I don't make this statement lightly: The regime is actively working to both deny and accelerate the warming climate. More heat. More flooding. More sickness. The regime wants you to be Ignorant, Poor, Sick. Stand Up.

As this is happening, the Trump admin is also trying to legally ratify Russia’s land grab in Donbas.

All crime, all the time.

Seinfeld finale didn’t land.

There are no bad episodes of Survivorman.

Puerto Rican Day Parade.

Remember when USPS had a contract to buy a fleet of EVs and Trump made them cancel it and go back to gas?

Andy Stone started his career as a Dem comms flack. He deserves nothing but scorn.

Hell no

MAGA/MAHA did all it could to destroy the CDC "It will cause generational harm, which always makes me tear up. The harm that's going to come to people that don't even know what CDC was protecting them from." www.medpagetoday.com/publichealth...

I keep thinking about how Trumpism isn't even pragmatic assholery, a moral tradeoff where warmongering and cruelty leads to better results for Americans. He's just smashing the lose-lose button over and over again, making our country meaner and more violent, but also poorer and worse to live in

Been true for over a decade now.

2/2. @justinwolfers.bsky.social has a good video summary of the PPS survey results and what they mean. Bad, incompetent, unethical leadership pervades the Republican Trump administration, and it’s damaging the country. bsky.app/profile/just...

The voting laws that people like me support—universal vote by mail, same day registration, and automatic registration—increase turnout but have no partisan effect either way. The SAVE Act is designed specifically to have partisan effects (mostly bc they’ll implement it differently in blue states)

Thread. The Partnership for Public Service survey of federal workers: highlights by @umich.edu professor @donmoyn.bsky.social. “Collapse” is well chosen. Declines in trust are dramatic in every agency — & this survey was completed before Trump decided on his own to start a war with Iran. 1/2
