I wonder how many people lost their Job Mocking #GeorgeFloyd #DLHughley

It’s going to be really hard to convince myself to forgive the many people who supported a racist rapist pedophile who had already attempted a coup

I think it’s awesome we keep sending a chess team to take on pro wrestlers.

But Hunter Biden, something something something...

If you think you’re going to check Bernie Sanders’s skyline and find him talking about the invasion of Black and Brown communities over the last week you’re wrong. Again…there’s a reason Black Folks reject him time and again. His pretending racism doesn’t exist helped get us to where we are today🤷🏾‍♀️

I hate rhetorical questions, Reverend

During his recent conversation with Ta-Nehisi Coates, Ezra Klein was asked directly: “What’s your role?” And his response, “I don’t know,” shouldn’t surprise anyone.

As everyone else has noted, the ice stuff is just going to get worse and the dem plan of ignoring it isn't going to get better

The fact that Conservatives have hijacked American mainstream media is a problem. The fact that elected Democrats don't seem to care is an even bigger problem.

The Mamdani campaign’s masterful comm strategy should be studied for years & years to come.

This fucking corpse is still alive?

Democrats could invest in media, with an eye towards flipping Texas into a blue state. Imagine year round getting Texas progressives and Democrats activated, hounding Texas Republicans and conservatives, making them out to be nutters. Nah let’s light more money on fire for losing campaigns instead.

Most of the power authoritarians have is freely given. We should not comply with them in advance. Trump is far weaker than he looks. So is the GOP. We should draw them out, drain them at every opportunity, and fight for people’s wellbeing at every turn. We have been sent here to fight for people.

Congressional Dems are stunned, STUNNED, that Republicans are acting like Republicans. If only there was a way that the past could predict what their reaction would be.

Human and civil rights aren't something you negotiate with the other side as if they're tax cuts.

Abandon Republican framing, bipartisan unity, a notion of fairness that gives equal heft to lies and fact. It is time for [us] to do what the Right has done for decades: Construct a media ecosystem to engage the most visceral emotions of their base, amplify them, and channel that energy into action.

Starting to think that Trump doesn't have the best interests of the United States in mind...

So far today, Chuck Schumer has said his strategy for preventing Trump sending troops into blue cities is to win over Republican senators (!) while Hakeem Jeffries praised Eric Adams's courage and authenticity (!!) while refusing to endorse Mamdani. Again. These two gotta go.

Asking someone to play by 'the rules' on a tilted playing field while the other side is literally stealing the winnings and rewriting the rules on the fly is ... a very privileged take from someone who does not feel threatened.

I’ve been on HRT for almost 2 years, and I feel so much happier and confident in myself. I feel like I emerged from a cocoon, and this butterfly intends to FLY 🦋✨ Sage is right — everyone should have healthcare, bodily autonomy is a human right. 🏳️‍⚧️💖🏳️‍🌈

Conservative policies are more harmful to children than Tylenol

Those crazy fuckers are on tv every single day calling dems violent gang supporting baby killers and dems are still “my friends on the other side of the aisle should check their hearts”

Um... okay.

C'mon Kamala.....

Hakeem Jeffries voted for Charlie Kirk Day but still isn’t sure if he’ll endorse Zohran Mamdani. This is why the approval rating of the Democratic Party is lower than Trump’s or the GOP.

Unanimous consent. No Senate Democrat objected. Fucking useless.

Eh...I don't know about that one, Dick. If they look like Nazis and talk like Nazis and act like Nazis, well.....

Franklin uttered the phrase on this very date (September 17), the last day of the Constitutional Convention, in 1787

MAGA literally wants to kill, like, two-thirds of the population. This isn't a "we are going to have to live here with each other" situation.

And the Democratic response to the conservative consolidation of the media is..... *crickets*.

Can't believe we're being ruled by fuckwits like this

Cable channels keep showing clips of Charlie Kirk in various situations, ALL WITHOUT SOUND, because if they played what he actually said it would puncture their hagiography bubble.

Woooo boy the ratio

Donald Trump has incited more violence in one week than Barack Obama, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and Hillary Clinton have done in their entire lives combined. So the right can take a seat.

There’s a future where the “Epstein hoax” becomes the “Russia hoax” and the “Covid hoax” … where the right wing bullshit machine flips the script upside down and the mainstream follows behind apologetically, led by contrarians and “they have a point” guys.

Cable news is one of the worst things ever invented. The problem is far more than Fox. It’s all of it.

Trump supports beating women

“This is the captain of the Titanic scolding the passengers for not steering the ship correctly.” - @driftglass.bsky.social

I can't stand that RFK Jr motherfucker

center your campaign around liberal women in the suburbs and cities -- the core of the democratic party, instead of gop-leaning soccer moms in swing states. those soccer moms are never going for you, at least not this way. but if you get your base in line and activated the gop soccer moms join in.

Our party tries so hard to woo voters from the center-right that we wind up turning off our own progressives. And those center-right voters? They reflexively pull the Straight-R lever anyway.

the two americas

Again, the key divide within the Democratic party does not map onto a left/right axis: It is between those who want to fight back forcefully, like Pritzker, and those who can’t/won’t shake the impulse to accommodate, appease, and uphold “normalcy.”

"Donald Trump is a monster and we desperately want to work with him" is a batshit position to take, it makes you sound like an insincere and feckless empty suit
