Wut is this lol

Undefeated

"The worst inside us begets that feeling on the internet It's like someone intended it"

The description of the US as a "cruel and carceral nation" is spot on. If we are to ever move forward, we need to stop saying "this is not who we are." It's exactly who we are and have always been. The sooner we accept that, the sooner we can make actual meaningful change to this fucked up system.

"Centrists" need to call Mamdani a "radical leftist" so they can say Trump/Farage fascism is just the opposing side of an equally matched "both sides" conflict But Mamdani is just a middle of the road, European social democrat And "centrists" - ie centre-right and right - are simply pro-fascism.

In Denton, Texas last night, voters passed a proposition of a FIVE CENT property tax per $100 valuation, and by doing so raised $26 MILLION annually for their school district's "daily operations, including teacher and staff salaries, safety and security, and student programs and enrichment."

Sometimes you don’t win, but you scare the living crap out of ‘em.

It can't be emphasized enough that ICE is disappearing people. When people are kidnapped, they are thrown in detention facilities where they have to pay for phone calls. If they have no money when they're taken, they have no way of contacting family members or lawyers.

Tell me you don’t know what communism is without telling me. He’s also a socialist democrat, not a communist. Socialism and communism are two different things, I know it’s hard when your face is filled with plastic and stretched beyond belief but keep up white girl. Keep up.

Texas!!!

Tony on cbs just said mamdani won by a “slim margin” Are you kidding me?

Thought the election here in Georgia for two Public Service Commission seats would be close, but they weren't, with the two Democrats winning handily. Hopefully this is a sign that Georgia citizens are fed up with higher energy bills & more willing to move toward clean renewable energy.

The ADL is an absolute joke

Necessary context for this: 1. since MO Medicaid expansion started state hasn't spent a dollar of its own funds; federal govt covered all costs; 2. most (if not all) costs offset by savings (e.g., disabled recipients choosing expansion); 3. net economic effect to state is huge.

Brad Lander is at the victory party and, folks, he has the custom one-of-one “GOOD FUCKING RIDDANCE” shirt.

I knew it would take less than a day for a tiktok dj to make something.

Last night was a big night for east and west coast blue states, but I just wanna say to the red states (who often get tossed to the side by Dems): We see you breaking supermajorities and electing young people to your city councils. Keep going, you are just as important as NYC or Cali.

Georgia!!!!

We're all going to write pieces about what you can learn from tonight but it's actually pretty simple: The frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

The ideas underlying socialism are hardly toxic. Inclusion, community, compassion, opportunity, effective governance are all fundamental, widely embraced. The term socialism itself has been cynically stigmatized. But with a little good sense, we can move past that and focus on values & results.

Good things are possible and we don’t have to settle.

What we know, final edition of the night: [Now in 3 parts] —Prop 50 wins —VA Dems flip Gov, LG, AG —Dems gain leg seats in VA, NJ, & MS —Dems defend NJ-Gov —Dems win NJ+VA trifectas —Mamdani wins —PA Dems win state supreme court —ME anti-mail voting measure loses —GA Dems flip 2 statewide offices

The sounds of democracy 💗

Yesterday truly gave me all the feels that politics should give you. I was inspired, incredibly proud and had my faith renewed in this insane country that I love. Fascism only prevails when we give up. Keep organizing, keep listening and allow yourself to feel the joy.

Mississippi!!!

I logged back in on my phone to be here for this I love all of you people We are going to build lives worth living, in communities and states worth living in, in a country worth living in, in a world worth living in

Somewhere the worst billionaire you know is writing a very long tweet thread about Israel and the mayoral election.

😂😂😂😂😂😂

Other than Trump wins, Jack Posobiec has cursed every race where the candidate enlisted him as a hype man. From Pennsylvania to Arizona to Georgia and now New Jersey, an appearance from “Agent Poso” means a guaranteed loss. 🪦

over in Maine currently, Voter ID is dead and gun restrictions are ALVIE

OK. Let's fucking go. Kat next.

😂😂😂😂😂

Dems in ARRAY

Today was a good day for democracy, plain and simple.

i hope to see enterprising democrats announce their intent to retire schumer and gillibrand over the next two years.

“I do not regret to inform you that we will win” @olufemiotaiwo.bsky.social

Man, if Missouri Dems get the signatures to put the MO map up for a November 2026 vote (and, therefore, preventing Rs from picking up #MO5 at least until 2028), Cleaver and Davids should start the "Outflanked Republicans on Redistricting Caucus:"

Virginia state Senator Louise Lucas (a Democrat who is the chamber's president pro tempore) just tweeted this:

I think a thing we'll learn tonight is that people fucking hate what is going on and they will straight ticket vote against anyone involved in starving people while pillaging the country and kidnapping their neighbors. I don't think it matters at all who that person is.

WHOA. Via @decisiondeskhq.bsky.social, it looks like Democrats just flipped BOTH *statewide* Public Service Commissioner seats in Georgia. That seems...significant.

Glad to be here with all of you tonight to lib out.

Tyranny doesn’t steal power all at once. It starves it, vote by vote, truth by truth, until silence feels normal. Today, we still have a voice. Use it before legitimate elections become a memory whispered about in the dark. #Vote

No one commissioned a Cheney obit from me except a friend who subsequently left his outlet. If you’re an editor and you pay more than $1.50/word, reach out. If I hate your outlet, be prepared to pay more. If these terms are not acceptable, my book works as a Cheney obituary:

Dick Van Dyke has OUTLIVED Dick Cheney

Dick Cheney was a dangerous fool. He not only wanted to exploit the trauma of 9/11 to turn America into the kind of country that builds a network of gulags, tortures random unfortunates, and embarks on misdirected wars, he got the whole power structure of the republic to go along with him.

CBS is really doing a whole montage on Cheney my god lmao They really said he was “soft spoken” Jesus Christ.

It’s been a while ride over the past 10-12ish years watching this man devolve into white supremacy and fascism.

Fucking cowards
