I redrew an old Juri Arisugawa sketch from so long ago, for face practice ✋😐🤚

Some news: tomorrow at 9am, Ted Koppel + CBS Sunday Morning will air a two-part story on the devastating surge of full-time workers being pushed into homelessness. I'll be interviewed along with two families from There Is No Place for Us. It would mean a lot if you'd watch and help spread the word.

So are Democrats just gonna leak ever more damning email chains every time they materially acquiesce to Trump as if that makes up for their failure to both stop his agenda or prosecute him, or

In case it's not obvious, none of this is true. He's either innumerate, or lying.

anyway if dems think I'm gonna forget this shit in 5 months, they're wrong. if they think I'm gonna forget it in 5 years, they're wrong. they have fully convinced me that purging the party of these inept losers in the senate is more important than retaking the senate in the next election cycle

I’m getting hints that my book may be somewhat widely reviewed. It's giving me serious knots in my stomach and sweaty palms. I've faced public scrutiny for the past 15 years, but an actual review is something else, whoof. Preorders are live, coming November 11! www.amazon.com/Stealing-Fut...

Vote blue? No, matter who!

Since the Democrats worked extra hard to hide who actually supported this, I think the No Kings/Resistance position should be to primary every Democrat unless they publicly call for Schumer's ouster this week Either they go into total rebellion mode, which they won't, or the people will

It was harder getting endorsements for Zohran Mamdani from Democrats than them caving to Republicans to mutually strip us of healthcare

A leader would not have lost eight colleagues tonight. This happened because you let it happen or because you’ve totally lost control of the caucus in one of the most important moments since you’ve been Democratic leader. Either way, it’s on you. You need to step down. We need someone who can lead.

In a healthy democracy, these party leaders would have been out on their asses 20+ years ago instead of just forcing us to watch as they physically rot into decrepitude

Not that he didn’t already know, but now Trump knows for sure he can roll the Dems every time and there’s no need to negotiate for anything

In a normal democracy, a total collapse of party leadership would result in an no-confidence vote and immediate snap elections to find leaders who can lead

Fuck these traitors. Primary their sorry asses.

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

chuck schumer cannot be replaced as party leadership quickly enough

Stop patting senators on the head unless they are calling for schumer's removal. Everything else is just in the script

This shit is why people don’t trust the Democratic Party.

The original Dem demands were: 1) Permanent ACA subsidies 2) Medicaid funding restored 3) No more blank checks for the regime (rescission) They dropped Medicaid immediately. Went silent on rescission. Cut back to 1 year of subsidies on Friday. And surrendered today. The Senate Democrats!

wow democrats shitting the bed, again, I can't believe it

This, from Tim Kaine is HILARIOUS:

so much suffering and sacrifice only to to agree to terms that will beget more suffering and sacrifice.

My mom: "I just love the Chinese people... and the Koreans... and the Japanese..." Me: "I have a colleague who is Cambodian." Mom: "That's Vietnam, right?" Me: "No, they're from Cambodia." Mom: "Vietnamese are kind of... eh..." it's been an uphill battle to get her to stop saying "coloreds"

stop engaging with stancil, he's nothing but a barely sentient gish gallop

This is just that old Fox News screenshot about the percentage of poor people with refrigerators all dressed up. Yes, many things are substantially better. Some very important things are worse. Either way nothing is the way people on the left generally agree that it should be.

Ms. Rachel (Rachel Griffin Accurso), the extremely popular children’s educator, said she unsubscribed from the The New York Times, “because of its biased and dehumanizing coverage of Palestinians and Palestine, and its failure to uphold journalistic integrity.” Over 300 writers, scholars, public...

Senate Democrats asked for a year of ACA subsidies and were told to fuck off. So they came back and asked for a pinky promise to hold a vote on ACA subsidies that they will assuredly lose? Seriously?

Any Democrat voting for this should be primaried as quickly as possible because they're stupid, aren't capable of recognizing they're winning, are incapable of representing their constituents, and are cowards not up to this era's challenges.
