Earthquake in Hungary: Orbán defeated after 16 years in power Quick reflections. #hungary #orbán

Some personal news. I was accepted as a Colbert Fellow through the May 21 final show. Political jokes are sent based on the prior day's news. Recent ones include Trump accidentally liberating the gays of Hormuz & Congress asking AI to write regulation for itself. Post your ideas below! More soon.

"When push comes to shove, @gavinnewsom.bsky.social will not challenge power," @adamgreen321.bsky.social says to the Trailblaze Podcast. He "encapsulates the dynamic of...are we an anti-Trump party, or do we have a forward-looking vision that positions itself on the side of working people?"

This week, @adamgreen321.bsky.social of the Progressive Change Campaign Committee gives it to us straight: being progressive means picking a fight with the people who have all the power and refusing to back down. Wall Street, billionaires, systemic racism. No exceptions. (2/3)

Fools

"Talarico won with his bold populist message. He is willing to criticise both parties, lead with vision, and advocate for taxing billionaires" yes! @evanbarker.bsky.social www.thetimes.com/article/ef28...

Live from Texas! Campaigning for @jamestalarico.bsky.social and workers and against the billionaires! #TXSen

Is it coincidental that Hegseth and Trump were obsessed with automated (non-accountability) war in the hours before bombing Iran?

I feel bad for Dick Cheney. He dreamed of this moment and never got to see it.

The Democratic Party has a choice to make: “Are we content to simply be an anti-Trump party, or will we stand for a larger vision, an economic populist vision for workers, for corporate accountability, for materially improving people's lives?"

“Winning and inspiration go together.” - PCCC co-founder @adamgreen321.bsky.social @analiliafornj.bsky.social's win isn’t just a New Jersey story. It’s momentum for every primary ahead — and proof that real organizers grow the coalition and bring people back to the polls.

Excellent distinction by @michellegoldberg.bsky.social

Show Pelosi that donor cash....so transparent.

Proud to have gotten out the vote today in Morris county for @analiliafornj.bsky.social @analilia-mejia.bsky.social ! She is an ORGANIZER who ran on bold progressive change for working families -- and challenging powerful interests. Onward!

In NJ, a vert bad night for AIPAC and @searchlightinst.bsky.social @adamjentleson.bsky.social. Big night for progressives and those who are not mealy mouthed on ICE. Go @analiliafornj.bsky.social !

Bezos: Spends $40 million on Melanie movie bribe for Trump and then last off hundreds of journalists. This is what corruption & oligarchy look like.

Democratic leadership need to be waking up every morning with the singular goal of matching the energy of the heroes on the ground in Minnesota.

Good job @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social #Snowstorm2026

Wondering what @adamjentleson.bsky.social thinks the role of heterodoxy is in this moment.

Imagine if there were perp walks during the Wall Street collapse the way they are doing right now...

"Donald Trump can't run America. Now he wants to run Venezuela?" - @jayapal.house.gov on @msnownews.bsky.social

Here is what Trump's own Chief Of Staff said in November.

Trump: “They shouldn’t say ‘Oh, gee, maybe it’s not constitutional.’

Trump: “They shouldn’t say ‘Oh, gee, maybe it’s not constitutional.’

John Bolton was on MS saying this is just the first step. His invasion moment is back.

Trump snatching up a foreign president is illegal. Even if that president is despised, this cannot be legitimized. #NoKings.

"We will set an example for the world." - @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social

The arrogance of a Senator who is not even running again to take the lead in undermining the Caucus and the voters.

I’m a no.

One guy I talked to while door knocking for @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social said Trump & Musk's endorsements decided his vote. Many others were desperate for hope (and affordability), said Zohran was not bought, is for the people. Those who voted for him were ENTHUSIASTIC. Feeling good! #nycmayor

"Nothing could be more helpful to Mamdani right now than Eric Adams, a disgraced, corrupt person, endorsing Andrew Cuomo." PCCC's @adamgreen321.bsky.social joined @alivitali.bsky.social on @waytooearly.bsky.social this morning to discuss the NYC mayoral race as election day approaches.

Love America Rally DC #NoKings

So...why aren't we sending law enforcement to bullet engraving stores?

In Utah, an 18-year-old can’t legally buy a beer but in 2025, Utah passes HB 128 to allow students to carry a gun into a college classroom. That’s on top of 2021’s “permitless carry.” Now, people of all political stripes mourn a campus shooting that these laws helped make possible.

Just got off a plane from a country with high political extremes but a fraction of the gun violence we have an America. Tragic, horrific way to re-enter our country. We need real laws to take on gun violence in the U.S.

250,000+ people signed. We joined @indivisible.org to deliver the petition opposing @colbertlateshow.bsky.social's cancellation straight to @cbsnews.com and @paramountpictures.bsky.social — and they tried to block us. Watch the recap, then add your name: SaveColbert.org #SaveColbert

would the media please stop talking about Jeffrey Epstein? Just kidding. Carry on...

JD Vance needs to stop meeting and greeting people over age 70. Despite his insane endorsement in 2024, RIP Hulkster.

Hey NYC, we’re rallying tomorrow to tell CBS to reverse its politically-charged cancellation of Stephen Colbert’s show. If CBS cares about their integrity, our democracy, and free speech, they must reverse their decision and keep Colbert on the air.

Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert both say "Go fuck yourself" tonight. Totally coincidental.

Can you imagine if Matt Gaetz was the one covering up the Epstein files?

WTF @cnn.com

Trump struck Iran without any authorization of Congress. We need to immediately return to DC and vote on Rep. Thomas Masie and my War Powers Resolution to prevent America from being dragged into another endless Middle East war.

For those in NY, please join midnight protest at 96 and Broadway.

Have you ever heard a police officer say not to trust when someone who looks like police knocks on your door? As thugs impersonate ICE officers and as the military is deployed against the American people, all drawing on trust of the badge, today's warning from Minnesota kicks off something larger.

Great job @kateshaw.bsky.social !!

Nothing prevented Harris from doing an ad like this.

We need a 2028 presidential candidate who "drips and oozes authenticity when they promise to shake up a broken economic and political system," @adamgreen321.bsky.social said to @thehill.com's @juliamanchester.bsky.social. Now is not the time for Biden or Harris to be stepping out.

Musk was going to step back from politics until he heard Trump was hanging out with the guy who tortured, murdered and dismembered an American journalist, and then he needed to go shake that guy’s hand

Sadly, @dplouffe.bsky.social is whitewashing a bad candidate and a bad campaign. Biden SHOULD have gotten out early, but NOT because people would like @kamalaharris.com better with 3 extra weeks. It’s because the Dem Party deserved a primary to pick the best candidate, as @amyklobuchar.com said.
