We gotta pack the court, this is untenable

Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy is using his official social media account to promote his wife's book, in clear violation of the law.

Did you know that low-income Americans are forbidden from purchasing hot food items like rotisserie chicken at their local deli with SNAP benefits? It’s true. There are all sorts of arbitrary rules like this for public assistance programs.

Anyone not running on reforming the Supreme Court cant be the leader of anything moving forward. It's an unhinged gang of extremists unrestrained by anything or anyone.

DOJ appears to have missed its filing deadline in @katiephang.bsky.social’s lawsuit against Todd Blanche.

Dems have to run on this hard. Do not let the RFK types try to spin what his own party just signed off on here. Actual Monsanto, the comic book villain of Adbusters days, was shielded from liability over poisoning Americans. I don't care if it's slopulism: this Supreme Court wants you dead.

Judge blocks Trump order that would have let USPS refuse to deliver mail ballots www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

There is ONE thing I am looking forward to this heatwave: Pictures of paschal candles that have melted in churches. Here's an example from a few years ago. It's my favourite phenomenon. Because, well... Look at it.

can’t believe a narcissist is being so publicly humiliated by a reflecting pool

oh no they’re going to start calling democrats the same thing they’ve been calling democrats for 20 years now

For anyone (is there still anyone?) who doubts that the President is mentally incompetent, please watch.

Crowds flock towards the exit in the middle of Trump's speech.

South Dakota’s No. 2 GOP Sen. Tom Pischke faces 2 felony charges tied to party positions. He forged 16 documents; 13 people filed affidavits saying signatures were forged. The state GOP chair said he will step away from party duties, calling it a bad look. www.argusleader.com/story/news/p...

The fuck is wrong with the 31% on this graphic

Friends, they’re not even trying to hide their voter suppression. ⬇️

According to our Constitution, we should have overthrown our government by now.

That Trump is willing to let people stay homeless in order to get his election rigging bill passed is the least surprising thing that's happened in Washington this month.

Q: Why did you give a plea deal to a child sex predator? Do you have anything to say about that? Paxton: (No response.) Q: Should he be registered as a sex offender in Texas? Paxton: (No response.) Q: What do you have to say to the victim of Adam Hoffman? Paxton: (No response.)

Shrapnel. Concussion. Lung damage. Hearing loss. Vision loss. Military officials say that they were “Not seriously injured.” Wounded troops are now accusing Pentagon officials of covering up the extent of their injuries due to the Iran war. #USDemocracy #Pinks apple.news/A0TpvbfKdTVu...

HEY CHICAGO! The city wants to sell your parking meter company to the same private-equity firm that owns Omni Air International, the worst of the worst of ICE's charter airlines. The city council's finance committee is meeting about it TOMORROW. 1/

Overall it's pretty hard to endorse the current system where 90% of House seats are safe seats and relatively low turnout primaries (a total of, say, 70k votes) determine who serves in congress, sometimes for decades.

SLOW SMALL SOLUTIONS. You want to change the party? Push it Left? Wayyyyy left? Me too, girlfriend. Let’s keep working to make change at the local level, state leg level, and as NY showed us: in primaries in Blue Districts. This is where we go and we go hard. Get involved early.

The president of the US, sharing his deranged fantasies.

Why the delay of a month?!

Oh hey i was reminded of something. Anthony Fauci came to the White House AT THE INVITATION OF TRUMP. Trump is mad because a million people died under his watch so he’s blaming fauci vs accept responsibility. Just like Iran, and just like the reflective pool. Always someone else’s fault

I just checked again and still no major or even minor news outlet has even breathed her name.

Sen. Peters: "Yes or no, if a state refuses to turn their absentee voter list over to the federal government, will the Postal Service still mail their ballots under this proposed rule?" Postmaster General David Steiner: "Under our proposed regulation, no."

Convicted Felon Donald Trump hijacks bipartisan affordable housing bill to try to extort a vote in support of the horrendous SAVE Act: youtube.com/shorts/dsc2W...

The Democratic Party freaking out that Democratic Party candidates are winning is the most Democratic Party thing ever.

U.S. District Judge Sparkle Sooknanan just saved the midterms. She ruled that the regime’s 25-state voter-purge machine broke three federal privacy laws, stating the government "knowingly trampled" on the sacred right to vote. Read her monumental ruling: 👇 🔗 www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trumps-pla...

Just moments ago the President was supposed to sign a bipartisan housing bill here in the capital. Except, in a bizarre chapter, he didn’t and is a no show—because he says he’s mad at the Senate. Here’s what’s happening ⬇️👀

Lander on comparisons between his flank of the Democratic Party and the Tea Party: "We're joyful about what it looks like to deliver. That is very different energy than what the Tea Party brought. We want to build something, not just break something."

I don’t know man, who is “the Democratic Party” if it’s not the voters?Democratic voters choose candidates, not party leaders. And party leaders need to listen to what voters are telling us - and right now they are demanding our party be bolder.

“Are you enjoying the show? Refill your popcorn, you’ll love this next part.”

Fresh off sweeping victories across NYC, Democratic socialists are kicking off their search for a 2028 candidate. DSA is asking members across all 250 chapters to weigh who they want to back in the next presidential election and why.

Postmaster General David Steiner's admission conflicted with a rule the USPS adopted under his watch last year. The rule said the agency “does not administer elections, establish the rules or deadlines that govern elections, or determine whether or how election jurisdictions utilize the mail.”

What an absolute clown show.

Rep. Dan Goldman has been unseated by Mamdani-backed Brad Lander. Get fucked, centrists.

Trying to keep count of Dem incumbents who appear to be going down to challengers from their left tonight. I have: —2 congressmembers (both NY) —3 state senators (1 in NY, 2 in MD) —4 state house members (3 in NY, 1 in MD) May be missing some, will update.

fuck israel

Mamdandate.

Congratulations to the young multi-racial coalition of New Yorkers who are demanding better.

Ossoff: "The other thing that is really bothering people is that while Americans are paying record high prices for just about everything, the first family is becoming billions of dollars wealthier, sweetheart deals all over the world. The president is literally building a monument to himself."

The Establishment and its Reeks are going to have a terrible, terrible day after seeing these election results. Love it.

The New York political machine just learned a painful lesson: Voters don’t care how long you’ve held power. They care whether you’ve earned it. Two incumbents are out. The ground is shifting. #NYPolitics

Jesus on the cross:

101 former judges have asked New York disciplinary authorities to investigate Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, alleging ethics violations tied to his conduct at DOJ. My latest: open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

a cool moment -- Kaitlin Collins tells Brad Lander that he won his primary live on air during an interview with him. Lander responds by saying, "I'm thrilled. I did not expect to be on air when the race was called."

NEWS: In a stunning upset, Mamdani-backed Darializa Avila Chevalier will defeat five-term incumbent Adriano Espaillat in the NY-13 congressional primary. With victories by Lander, Valdez, and now Avila Chevalier, Mamdani went 3-for-3 with his endorsements in New York City's Democratic primaries.
