Here they fucking go again, making reasonable health risk quarantine sound like being in one of Putin's gulags or in ICE detention. 🙄 www.npr.org/2026/05/21/n...

It would be very cool if my body would stop sending me right up to the edge of a panic attack like the one and only one that has ever sent me to the emergency room, 8 years ago, but apparently my nerves are flirting with that idea this week. Being American in 2026, y'all.

Oh also I should add: Consider this my catchphrase until November, everyone

Gov. @andybeshearky.bsky.social is standing on business

Glad this is out. But the fundraising analysis section—which I was interviewed for and provided data and analysis for—only includes fundraising totals, not the efficiency analysis I provided. Could be that they didn’t finish it. But what I found is a big deal. More on this soon.

I'm fun at parties, I know

Credit where it's due: it's a start. The bar is so low it's in hell, but this ain't nothing. www.nbcnews.com/politics/pol...

GOOD. Fuck him. www.cbsnews.com/colorado/new...

Actually what we need is an amendment that allows any US citizen regardless of place of birth to become president; give me President Mamdani. Fuck off, Nancy Mace - you and MAGA do more damage to the US than anyone else. thehill.com/homenews/hou...

Kentucky, we've got a lot to be thankful for. We're celebrating the best first quarter ever for economic investment. Even better, we've secured 70,000 new jobs since I took office – at the highest incentivized wage in state history. This year, that's risen to $31.50!

I’ll give a simple, country, con law professor answer: No. No, he cannot.

No, nope, Dementia Dipshit Don has done enough damage; he does not get to fuck with Cuba.

This slush fund to reward insurrectionists is a continuation of the assault on our democracy started by donald on January 6th. Its wrong and puts us in continued danger. See you in court

A Democratic lawmaker who was accused of sexual harrassment finished third in his primary in Kentucky today, and lost his seat. boltsmag.org/whats-on-the...

Massie and I never saw eye to eye on policy, i was a moderate and he wasn’t. But i always respected him because for the most part (except the Jan 6 stuff) he stuck to his truth. There’s no room for that in today’s GOP.

Massie, and Cassidy, will now enter the land of freedom to do what you want. It’s a wonderful land of milk and honey. And telling Trump to eat balls is the best part of it

Oop and down goes Thomas Massie in his primary

Oh ho, well then www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

Kentucky primaries: LOL they just called Daniel Cameron ate shit in his Republican primary, hilarious

I believe this is known as liquified natural gaslighting. www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

Weird to type, but TX-SEN is competitive this year

Its primary day in several states across the country, including right here in Kentucky. I hope everyone will make their voices heard.

I’m going to say this once: there’s a difference between finding individual but outlier polls showing Trump in the 30’s every month — and the current moment, when he is consistently polling in the 30s. open.substack.com/pub/danieldr... Keep going all you like.

Jared Polis pretty much screwed his career with this One Weird Trick to pander to the MAGA demographic for a future presidential run. Just the worst political insticts.

The NYT removed the "um"s in Trump's answer on Taiwan, but put "um"s in AOC's answer on Taiwan to make her look dumb Trump said "Um, I would say 'like' is maybe too strong a word...um, no, I'm holding that in abeyance and it depends on China, depends, it's a, it's a.." L: Trump R: AOC Video below

Just a little PSA- Neil Gaiman has reactivated his Bluesky account. Because he deactivated before a lot of people could unfollow him, and/or because Bluesky doesn’t remove you from a person’s followers when you block them, a LOT of you are still publicly listed as following him. You should check.

your tax money my tax money we, personally, are being forced to directly pay outright traitors because the president decrees it intolerable

Tax strike when?

Honestly kinda stunned speechless! I guess the thing I hold onto is that Trump absolutely has it in him right now to get his approval down to Bush II in '08 and he really seems to be trying.

They're stealing billions of your money to pay off violent right-wing psychos while doing everything in their power to spike gas up to $5 a gallon, make groceries into a luxury and hand the country over to the oligarchs who want to permanently replace you.

Hey. Hey, fellow Americans. Hi, yes, hello it's time for us to talk about a tax strike.

I simply could not imagine being in congress and staying silent as Trump builds a slush fund of $1.776 (cute right… 1776) billion dollar slush fund for insurrrectionists. What are these people even there for? History will be brutal to them. And their kids will be embarrassed

To get specific, the entire thing violates Article 1, plus a good portion of it violates the 14th Amendment.

Straight up theft. Not much different than taking tax money out of the federal treasury in wheelbarrows.

The "resolution" here is a $1.7 billion slush fund that would be used to pay off Trump allies who were prosecuted for their role in a coup against the United States government, which is almost as outrageous as the president arranging a payoff to himself.

People have already memory-holed how critical #TeslaTakeDown was. It was the earliest decentralized set of protests in the second term as early as Feb 2025 at a time when most people were shell-shocked and Dem leadership was cowering and capitulating. And it pushed Elon out of the WH.

These are lawless violent vigilantes, not “patriots” or “martyrs.” Trump has already pardoned them. They most certainly should not now get paid from Trump’s proposed $1.7B fund.

There's a major civil rights protest taking place in Selma, Alabama, right now in response to the SCOTUS decision that weakened the Voting Rights Act and the ongoing attack on Black Americans’ political power (video: defiancedispatch/IG)

Colorado Democrats are only one vote short of two thirds in the state senate, and if you can’t flip at least one Republican who’d do it just for the lulz you’re not trying.

If you told 11 year old me that neocon on TV who I'm a big time hater of would be a Democrat just over two decades later, I would be shook and very concerned about US democracy. To be fair, I have the concerns now.

Every Democratic candidate for office should denounce this immediately. If they don’t, you know who you’re dealing with.

The reason people keep doing crimes for Trump is that you get rewarded for doing them, congratulations to Colorado's Dem governor for making sure we get more people trying to overturn elections on his behalf bsky.app/profile/kyle...

Simply doesn't make sense as a reconsideration of justice. This is a person who actively attempted to undermine democracy, to subvert the will of Colorado voters.

polis ought to go to fucking jail

BREAKING: Colorado Democratic governor Jared Polis has granted clemency to Tina Peters, who was convicted of election fraud. And this is why Centrist corporate Democrats are insufferable and should be voted out permanently. Who needs MAGA fascists when Corporate Dems do the dirty work for them. smh

Jared Polis is a coward and as much of a traitor to American democracy as Tina Peters is. I said what I said.

Bullshit like this is not what people who are serious about protecting and restoring American democracy do. Have a god damn spine, governor. www.cnn.com/2026/05/15/p...

Had David Scott, who was 80 and clearly could not do the job anymore, not died in office and Frederica Wilson, who consistently missed votes and is 83, came to vote yesterday, the War Powers Act resolution on Iran would have passed.
