Four in 10 women under the age of 45 say they'd like to permanently leave the U.S. Probably not coincidentally, they have also disproportionately lost trust in American institutions, including in the Democratic Party. www.pbump.net/o/the-subtex...

for the record, this is how the @nytimes.com covered Bloomberg, a man elected to the same office as Katie Wilson with the exact same amount of experience in public office as Katie Wilson, but whom the paper did not view with obvious contempt www.nytimes.com/2001/11/07/n...

Republicans' higher ed policy is to make educators' lives worse, defund their research, censor their lessons, deport their tuition-paying foreign students, saddle their domestic students with debt, and terrorize the cities where their alumni pursue their careers.

Jeffrey Epstein advised Steve Bannon that the lawyers representing Brett Kavanaugh in his confirmation hearing should accuse Christine Blasey Ford of being on medications that cause false memories or memory loss.

Anytime I mention this story theres a few dozen people who never heard about it, so for those unaware

“.. Prosecutors said he had been arrested 19 times.” #J6 lawandcrime.com/crime/jan-6-...

There is a concerted effort to disparage the progressive wing of the Dem party while elevating “centrists”. See recent NYT fluff piece on Mayor John Whitmire. The same donors who are pressing for “moderation” are the same assholes who produced Whitmire, Cuomo and the 8 members of the Cavers Caucus.

Let’s ground all private jets and see how they like it. Private flights are 13% of all air travel.

Murphy: There’s no way to defend this

Fascinating and informative. Also highly entertaining! “Ramón Cuenca-Guerra’s buttocks are in worse shape than mine. He has been dead for some time.”

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 treason laws were ruthlessly applied to the supporters of the Republic; those on the Right who tried to overthrow it, as Adolf Hitler was soon to learn, got off either free or with the lightest of sentences."

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

look I know being an engaged citizen IS the work of democracy but it is also the work of elected officials not to create situations where everyone has to be mobilized all the time to prevent them from allowing some kind of Dickensian horror on a Sunday night while you're in between loads of laundry

We coordinated my partner returning from Europe, my sister from Detroit and my brother, sister in law and four kids from Boston to have one last Thanksgiving with our ailing dad. And so I want to speak with precision when I tell Senate Dems to fuck off into the sun if you fold.

This moment demands fighters, not folders.

I didn’t realize how far she had gone. We need to purge these fuckers from society.

All the colours aligned for the arrival of the stone. Sea, land, tractor, and ship. Stone for the resurfacing of Papay runway one, arriving at the New pier yesterday.

WTH. THIS IS ALL FROM ONE MEMO?! Democrats need to recognize this isn’t a shared problem requiring bipartisan solutions. It’s a systematic disadvantage they must fix when they have the power to do so.

I will say that after Elon made all that noise about moving to Texas, he came crawling back to California🤡 He was loud when he left but he was church mouse quiet when he slunk back, like a kid tryna sneak back into the house after being out too late. But I'm dad, sitting on the couch in the dark...

Dear Senate Dems: DO NOT FUCKING BEND!! Stand firm. Not one inch. Do you hear us? NOT ONE INCH!!

Her husband told her that detainees at Broadview had to get up at 5am to get in line for one bathroom. He often peed himself. One time he had to wait until 2pm to use the bathroom. You could only use the bathroom once a day. He said the agents would beat you if you used the bathroom on yourself.

Every day, all day long. The texts begging for money. Until ActBlue cracks down on this unethical practice of reselling donor info without consent, I will not donate to ANY Dem candidates. This short-term practice damages the long-term Dem cause and royally pisses everyone off.

Nah, because Bannon's audience is not the public. It's operatives, electeds, and donors. His message is that the stakes are very high and that their window is very narrow. If they want to hang on to power and avoid accountability, they need to consolidate NOW.

Let’s hear more of the dangers of democratic socialism under Mamdani

Thread detailing Dallas City Council meeting about potential cooperation agreement with ICE is riveting. Also, ICE agents are doofuses

Rep. Yassamin Ansari has set up a table and this sign outside Speaker Johnson’s office.

We're all going to write pieces about what you can learn from tonight but it's actually pretty simple: The frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

10/10

WOW. 81% of women 18-29 voted for Mamdani, 80% for Sherril, and 78% for Spanberger. Gen Z women aren't playing around.

In Ulster County, NY, @runforsomething.net candidates Laura Donovan and Dominick Marino flipped seats red to blue against Republican incumbents. Laura won by just 36 votes!!

The shutdown is fun for Trump because he gets to throw lavish Gatsby-themed parties for his millionaire friends AND invent new and innovative ways to hurt poor people.

[Republican] advantage is that they spent decades building their own constellation of conservative propaganda outlets, and then they went out and purchased most of the mainstream outlets as well. newrepublic.com/article/2023... via @newrepublic.com

What do you call it when a person sits down to dinner with two Nazis? Three Nazis. That is how it works.

This is sort of a pattern: See also naive parroting of the claim that troops are being deployed to cities “to fight crime”. You don’t have to do admin propaganda by laundering their falsehoods in your headlines.

day 3 of early voting in TX and @houstonchronicle.com still has a paywall on its voter guide. if this is a business model, it's based on withholding the most basic information your community needs to have a functioning democracy

Graduate seminar did a deep dive on Thomas Paine’s Common Sense yesterday. At the line, “in America the law is king,” they (14 students from 6 countries) burst out laughing. I've been doing this for 35 years and this is the first time that was a laugh line.
