sTaY oN tWiTtEr they all say. Fuck outta here with that nonsense. It’s hard enough to be sentient in 2026. I’m not going to hang out in a goddamn Nazi bar.

MADDOW: “Williamson County still has a Confederate flag on their county seal — but they’ll have JUST the right size of a slice of Black voters in MEMPHIS to make sure they can never elect a member of Congress of their choosing again… this really is Jim Crow 2.0.”

Worth noting that most of the people who say Bluesky is dead or useless are journalists, not organizers. Bluesky has been OUTSTANDING for me as an organizer. I've raised THOUSANDS of dollars here, gotten HUNDREDS of people to actual events, gotten LOADS of people to DO POLITICAL THINGS.

He’s growing a second neckussy on his hand

Genuinely this is the moment where it's very clear that without explicit protections, conservatives will seek to eliminate minority success and achievement at all levels. I don't care what polls well. We either affirmatively support living in a multiracial society or we don't.

excellent piece

Happy birthday to John Brown, who knew exactly how to handle the south’s “Peculiar Institution”

there's no marcomentum, stop trying to make marcomentum happen.

Bloody hell.

Péter Magyar has been sworn in as prime minister of Hungary. Hungary's Viktor Orbán era is officially over.

In his first speech as Hungary's prime minister, Péter Magyar called on Hungarian President Tamás Sulyok to resign or be removed: "It's time to leave, Mr. President — while you still can." Sulyok, a Fidesz-backed Orbán ally, sat awkwardly watching in the Hungarian parliament.

id get fired if something i wrote or edited had an error in it that i willfully ignored because my entire point relied on the error

Hbd John Brown 👑

Supreme Court justices should not have publishing deals and be doing publicity tours at all, even for a kid's book.

Part of what we're seeing is the long-foretold victory of Lee Atwater's covert racism strategy. Forty years later and journalists still have no ability to accurately describe a racist who doesn't use the n-word in public.

The problem—which both the GOP and the milquetoast institutionalists seem to not be grappling with here—is that the more you close off avenues of political change through the democratic process, the more you push people to see extra-institutional mechanisms as their only option

America 2026

Lmao at how quick the south moved to IMMEDIATELY box out Black Americans. Post-racial society my ass.

as per melissa's thread, it is really important to understand that a major goal of this administration is the resegregation of key institutions of american society

What is wrong with these people There are more of us than there are of them.

I’m aware this is news to CBS and this dude but we were literally shouting about this a year ago, it’s not unearthed, and it’s even stupider than you think: the cruise ships paid their salaries. It literally paid more than it cost. We gave money back rather than control disease because RFK

If you thought elaborately faking being good at videogames to impress a bunch of manchildren was embarrassing, consider elaborately faking that your mother loves you.

yeah man, we’re all just dummies who don’t understand that you’re just judicial monks operating in a sphere of pure law [puts finger to ear] what’s this, clarence thomas gave another speech blaming progressives for hitler?

I can’t tell if these people are: Unprincipled Assholes Bullies with a platform that delight in punishing their enemies Or ‘Left-coded’ Alex Jones (with the grifting and hallucinations that come with it)

was it “pointless adventurism” when john brown did it?

very funny that ilya shapiro walks around like he is some grand arbiter of merit when he would be unemployable if not for wingnut welfare

The USAID and Soros conspiracies were always about projection, because the far right *is* actually entirely propped up by a small cabal of autocrats and insane billionaires, and would get absolutely obliterated without them.

straight up the greatest television show ever made hands down

It gets worse: Not only has the turnout gap grown. It was pushed up in most places once covered by Section 5 BY SHELBY. Alito, presumably, knows this. It was published in a top poli sci journal and blasted from here to kingdom-come by BCJ (open access: www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/... )

I am unspeakably angry about this turnout gap figure, and it gives insight into the whole ballgame for gutting the VRA. Alito points out that Black turnout exceeded White turnout twice in 5 elections. The argument is garbage 1/x

Never cared for an angry drunk

I couldn’t agree more with what Julie K. Brown is saying here. Michael Tracey’s misconduct is not funny. I understand why people mock him, but it would be nice to see more of our media peers actually seriously condemn his treatment of women.

“Yeah so we’re actually invading Pakistan soon! Nobody is supposed to know that, pretty cool, right?” said Patel, spilling his Don Julio as the bottle girl feigned interest in his long, rambling story.
