Anywho, there's no better time than now to put your ideas out there and invite other people to do things with you. Might as well try. You don't have to know everything before starting. You can just start.

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed." -Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953

I'd be more inclined to believe that Graham Platner is merely a dumbass if he was making different kinds of "mistakes" instead of one very specific type of "mistake" over and over

congress sounds cool i wish it was real

We killed 85 schoolgirls. We are not the good guys.

What he said.

Every agency assisting ICE is ICE.

Now that CNN and WBD are set to become state media in a sale to Paramount/Oracle/TikTok, it is especially important to support independent media. Off the top of my head: www.thehandbasket.co 404media.co www.garbageday.email Add your favorites in the replies. Fuck state-backed media monopolies.

The President boasts of "no tax on tips", but this expires in 2028. He boasts of "no tax on overtime," but it is taxed, and the break expires in 2028. He boasts of "no tax on social security," but it is taxed, and his break expires in 2028. He also passed tax cuts for the rich. They're permanent.

I would like to replace our Secretary of Defense please 🇺🇸

If you hear people complaining, remind them that Dems offered to split out ICE and CPB and fund everything else, including TSA. Republicans said no.

New polling says Jasmine Crockett has the best chances to beat Ken Paxton in Texas. The “she can’t win” crowd might want to start updating their talking points because the voters know what’s up.

When you put it like this, a $75 million bribe to Melania and gutting the Washington Post seems like a small price to pay.

A system built to eat people never stops eating people.

The drunk uncle theory. You don’t argue with the casually homophobic uncle at Thanksgiving dinner to change his mind; you argue so that the closeted cousin at the kids table knows there’s safe people and better possibilities out there

A lot of people talk about wanting Dems with the courage and anger to meet this moment, but Rep. @ramirez.house.gov is actually doing it. Read this 🔥 interview I did with her Friday:

This is what ICE does every day. Hunt little kids who are here legally. They get sent to a place called the “baby jail” in Texas. Very little of it ends up on video like this. But it’s routine. And disgusting.

Yeah.

Hmmm

Let's be done with the "if there even *IS* an election" gotcha. We know. The thought has occurred to all of us. It's unhelpful. I'm going to continue behaving as if I'm not powerless—as if totalitarianism isn't inevitable. Because it's not, and I'm not.

Notice how “resigned” keeps meaning “got caught.” Now do Howard Lutnick.

Important thread. You’ll learn something here, cis friends.

A plague of AI ads.

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century. He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

”those are a lot of boos for him”

America is being destroyed because it elected a man so psychologically deformed that not only can't he admit he lost an election, he can't admit that *anyone* didn't vote for him. (Recall he also investigated the 2016 popular vote as well.) It's like something out of an ancient Greek myth.

USAID fraud - no arrests Medicare fraud - no arrests Social security fraud - no arrests Election fraud - no arrests If MAGA didn’t have the collective IQ of a moldy peanut butter sandwich, they’d realize they were being scammed by now.

the guy who financed a propaganda film about the nazi first lady is killing a newspaper that writes unfavorably about her and her husband. this is how the club works.

Whistleblower puts Tulsi on notice that he will go to Congress himself if her office doesn’t respond by Friday.

Y’all didn’t realize they were using “Democracy dies in darkness” as a mission statement, not a salutary motto

Literally a comic book villain.

we need every grain of sand in the gears. every single one.

Never forget: Pam Bondi and Kash said there was nothing in the Epstein files back in March

I say this as a victim and as a lawyer and as a journalist and as a woman in public, no one, literally no one in power, cares about victims of sexual violence. This is why they promise women more police and prisons (allegedly to help them) while fancy men who are friends with Epstein go free.

Once all of the other, uh, things are settled we really need a serious public health campaign around everything involved in being part of a society.

the president is psychotic. in reality, his numbers are near all-time lows.

Why did mega law firm Paul Weiss capitulate so quickly right after Convicted Felon Donald Trump took office?…

even worse.

sorry maybe this is an unnecessary level of stating the obvious, but sometimes when someone says they don’t think puerto ricans are “american,” it isn’t an opportunity to do a little civics gotcha & tell them about the insular cases. they just mean they think real americans are white.

When they say Me Too "went too far," they mean "got too close."

This right here!
