Liberals: don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good Me: yeah fair ok, show me the good Liberals: this isn't the time for fucking purity tests you little shit

Welcome to the newest co-sponsors of my Medicare for All bill in the House! Medicare for All is not only good policy — as premiums skyrocket for millions of Americans — it is incredibly popular. Let’s keep building momentum for universal health care and get this passed!

Under NSPM-7, “anti-Americanism, anti-capitalism, and anti-Christianity” are all now cause for suspicion—and possible prosecution. Yet the memo has received vanishingly little press coverage.

Illinois, in the face of cruelty and intimidation, has chosen solidarity and support. That should not be overlooked. Donald Trump, Kristi Noem, and Gregory Bovino tried to appeal to our lesser instincts — but the best of us are standing up to the worst of them.

Today Senator Ruben Gallego introduced a bill to outlaw surveillance pricing nationwide.

So many people who are otherwise skeptical of big tech have become delirious Waymo boosters. Unfortunately I think it will be up to reality, not me, to change their minds.

How consumed by off-the-rails anti-science antivaxx conspiracy theories is the Alberta UCP? Check out Resolutions #20 for UCP AGM. 👇 - Stop mRNA vaccines use in AB? - provide vaccine detoxing (read: embrace pseudoscience)? - educate about "vaccine injuries"? Dark Age 2.0.

Corporate talking points have been distributed 🤣

To recap: Trump said Zohran isn’t a jihadist and is going to do a good job, even as Zohran still maintained Trump is a fascist.

Trump's political career was jumpstarted by fake african muslim socialist Barack Obama 1 just to watch it start to crumble under the eyes of real african muslim socialist the Barack Obama That Was Promised, Zohran Mamdani

I hope @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social is proud of how he beclowned himself earlier on that socialism resolution.

Zohran Mamdani standing beside the President of the United States just said that the US is funding Israel's genocide and yet can't take care of its own unhoused children on live television. I never thought I'd see something like that in my lifetime

Zohran walking into the Oval Office, focusing on his key policy platforms, and coming away with an unqualified win over Trump really puts into relief how bad the Democratic leadership is that it has been repeatedly rendered totally impotent and made to look like bumbling cowards by the Donald.

one of these lessons is that nobody should be afraid to be socialist. which makes today's house vote really stupid.

trump is a lot like the median american voter in that he has no coherent theory of politics really except racism so it's kind of unsurprising that he approaches mamdani in a completely non ideological way. there's a lot of lessons here.

zohran will post something like "keeping lines of communication open is important as seek to overthrow this fascist junta" and trump will quote tweet it like "sharp young man!"

DEMS IN DISARRAY

This keeps happening and most still genuflect to the orange

Find me an establishment Dem that’ll defend Mamdani better than Trump

donald trump endorsed zohran mamdani before chuck schumer lmao

@tedlieu.bsky.social @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov TFW even Trump is more positive about a socialist than you

Zohran cucked Trump in less than an hour, adjust what you think political strength looks like if you don’t think it looks like him

New USPTO rules would make bogus patents much harder to challenge. The public deserves better.

Oh god this is a true Smiling Man moment. The Era of Smiles begins

This all-male panel is deciding whether South Carolina women can be charged with murder for their pregnancies — and whether birth control and pro-choice websites stay legal. This a real thing happening today. Don't look away.

1) this from @marisakabas.bsky.social is good as always 2) as she lays out, part of the problem is there is an entire class of journalist and of publication that is obsessed…OBSESSED with access. if access can be taken away then you need to pull punches www.thehandbasket.co/p/moral-rot-...

Given the recent Wapo opeds I've read I'm genuinely surprised they haven't said the MBS did the right thing by having Khashoggi killed.

“I do not have a beef with Ed Zitron,” says reporter who most definitely has a beef with Ed Zitron. If you find yourself ad-hominem-ing a guy who has better bibliographies than most national newspapers rather than engaging with the facts presented, ask your doctor if Legacy Media is right for you.

This is super bad for US citizens, especially on the left of the spectrum. Gives this authoritarian administration potentially the power to surveil & go after US citizens on spurious "funding of FTO" grounds. This whole antifa boogeyman is being fully weaponized. So dangerous.

Helpful tracker!

Recent large anti-Musk street art in Paris. It really shows how hated he is, you never see anything like this in Paris, even about "our" far-right politicians. By coincidence, they could use the inverted car, one of the few symbols to have emerged in Parisian street art in recent years.

[gives up] Stay in the fight!

After yesterday’s surrender, we’re launching the largest Democratic primary program that we’ve ever run. We will not back any Senate primary candidate unless they call for Schumer to step down as Minority Leader. If you’re as pissed as we are, join this campaign to rebuild the Democratic Party. 👇

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

The reason people think the Democratic Party doesn't actually stand for anything is because it doesn't.

Watching this man, who I imagine believed himself to be a notable thinker due to his employer, discover just how much of his life was shaped by “being someone’s nephew” in real time has been a bigger entertainment event than the World Series.

2,400 year-old skeleton mosaic reads: “Be cheerful, enjoy your life” Discovered in Turkey

This is fucking amazing

New: Videos show ICE/CBP agents are scanning peoples' faces on the street to verify citizenship. ICE has tool to instantly look up unprecedented number of databases with just a photo “I’m an American citizen so leave me alone” “Alright, we just got to verify that” www.404media.co/ice-and-cbp-...

Fuck yeah!!!

Today I announced an agreement between Washington state, Oregon, and British Columbia to renew and strengthen our partnership. Together, the Cascadia region will address housing affordability, invest in clean energy, and create the conditions for long-term economic growth.

The NY Times and WaPo may be lost causes but holy shite look at PEOPLE out here absolutely killing it with 100% unvarnished truths 🌟

Aspire to trigger some NYT geriatric so much he shows up in your friend’s comments @caseynewton.bsky.social mainlining neckbeard energy I haven’t seen since 2008

@seattlewxguy.bsky.social saw a possible funnel cloud today east of Tacoma as I was coming home from Ocean Shores. It appeared to originate in the same general area where a weak velocity couplet tracked east for at least four radar scans.

Spotify’s founder, Daniel Ek, is another techno-fascist billionaire. He’s invested in AI that specializes in war, surveillance and violence, so it’s no surprise he’s fine with running ICE ads on Spotify. If you haven’t already, cancel your Spotify subscriptions. Let’s make them feel like Disney+.

@seattlewxguy.bsky.social impressive mammatus clouds in Edmonds today.
