one of the things that has to change dramatically going forward is that congress needs to viciously retake their rightful first amongst equals status

Three right-wing talking points whose logic contradicts each other: 1. No voter ID means illegal immigrants are voting. 2. You need an ID to fly on a plane so you should need one to vote. 3. We need to send ICE to airports to arrest all the illegal immigrants flying on planes.

everything is more inconvenient and expensive, nothing works anymore, goons might invade your city and kidnap you or your neighbors, and there’s a loud asshole forcing you to pay attention to him at all times

Senators are more loyal to other senators *of either party* than they are to you or this country

Love, love, love this 🤣

ill never understand this need from both left and right for there to be some master manipulator behind everything. sometimes politicians are just really shitty and they arent being paid off or blackmailed to do so. they just suck.

Have I been doing sex wrong????? 🤣

It’s only matter of time before we find out that Kash Patel has a CRAZY sports betting addiction.

So I’m wondering what more it would take for everyone to finally understand that, just like he was famously awful as a businessman, Trump is completely and thoroughly horrible at managing the economy? Other than turning off Fox News, I mean.

An important lesson Target is about to learn: 1. Trust is extremely difficult to get back once lost. 2. When people move on they almost never come back.

"They’re putting us in jeopardy in a real substantive sense, because the American people have no way of judging just how foolhardy, how stupid, how unwise, how violative of international dictum and rule this war is."

Strong reminder: women have not been independent for as long as some folks would like you to believe. We’ve lost rights that we never should have lost.

Anyone afraid or “taken aback” by that question is telling on themselves. The correct and immediate answer is “not that motherfucker”

As this was happening you were told shoplifting and home invasions were grave threats you needed to abandon any pretense of sympathy to address.

“Throughout history, women have been taught to stay quiet and shrink our power. The longer they hold me [in ICE detention], the more I am reminded how important my story is.” On International Women’s Day, Leqaa Kordia reflects on solidarity among women in U.S. immigration detention.

Also why is it sensitive? Who you vote for says A LOT ABOUT you. People is Europe discuss politics at length. That I why they are smarter than us.

This is what they said about tariffs, too. We must all be willing to endure some short term pain so our dumbass president can implement the policies that will ensure long term pain.

I think they might have better luck spending two thousand dollars holding a press conference where they detail who made the key decisions to collaborate with the Trump administration, how and when they were fired, and explaining what would stop that from happening again.

It is so damning of US news media that so many outlets refuse to just straight up say that Senator Tim Sheehy assaulted an activist. He did not "help" Capitol police. They did not need his help. He wanted to assault the guy and did. He should resign.

“They got money for wars, but can’t feed the poor”—Tupac

When Trump came to power, he ripped up the peace deal that Obama had made, and used the uncertainty he created as an excuse to bomb Iran, insisting he had ended the problem he had created once and for all, except now he's bombing them again to solve the problem he created and previously solved?

I want this for Seattle so bad!!!

Wars can only be declared by Congress. Taxes can only be levied by Congress. Spending can only be appropriated by Congress. Laws can only be passed by Congress. Any President who refuses to work with Congress is an enemy of the Constitution and the rule of law.

Everybody when they logged on this morning.

I will put it as simply as possible. Donald Trump stole your money The Supreme Court ruled that his tariffs were an illegal tax. Now he has your money, and he won’t give it back. Dems should make returning your money a centerpiece of the midterm message: www.messageboxnews.com/p/trump-stol...

In October 2024, the Georgia secretary of state’s office launched an investigation after receiving numerous reports from residents across several counties saying they’d received partially prefilled absentee ballot applications from Musk’s America PAC. trib.al/n6hAZOC

So there's a black girl scout troop trying to raise money to to to Europe but they aren't close to their goal as of yet. Please share this and buy some cookies if you can digitalcookie.girlscouts.org/scout/reagan...

look at my country man, we’re getting out-No Kings’d by the fuckin’ british

65,000 Seattle subway riders per day got double the trains starting this week! Now the gap between trains is 4 minutes at commute times, and 5 minutes for most of the day. The is the kind of big public investment that makes thousands of lives better every single day. www.tiktok.com/@rondezvouss...

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

Seattle’s millionaire tax is a huge success. Here is how grassroots groups beat big money and are now raising tons of money for mixed income, rent stabilized housing. (We call it “social housing.”) www.tiktok.com/t/ZP89WjsvH/

Hear me out...if we publish the Epstein Files *in Spanish* will MAGA finally get upset about them?

So, first of all, of course it was Trump. But even if they were telling the truth, "We give staffers who post videos of the Obamas as apes access to the agenda-setting, decree-sending, market-moving account of the president of the United States" is not the exculpatory statement they think it is.

1. It was not an accident. 2. It was not a staffer. 3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia. 4. He isn’t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares. 5. His base agrees with him. 6. He will do it again. 7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

It is really infuriating to see how misogyny really does unite men across the sociopolitical spectrum. And, in so far as the Epstein files go, they sort women into two categories: fuckable or irrelevant. When they near a hint of accountability they complain about not being able to make women prey.

the average billionaire is far more of a threat to the american family than 100,000 immigrants

“It's not my duty as Mayor to make sure you have a parking spot. For me it's the same as if you bought a cow, or a refrigerator, and then asked me where you're going to put them.” — Mayor of Pontevedra, Spain (re-elected 6 times)

I've reread this like 3 times. Freed herself from slavery by running away, *went back a week later bc the slaver was talking shit, set his house on fire, and then escaped again is absolutely incredible queen shit

All of this.

If our "environmental protection" frameworks can stop an affordable housing project but can't stop a detention center or a highway expansion we really need to start talk about ripping things up root and branch.

I double majored in HR and business but my 2 fav classes where business ethics (taught by a hippie that played Simon & Garfunkel) and Intro to Music that was such a lovely, artistic class. It was the breath of fresh air I needed twice a week to keep going.

Good afternoon from San Francisco.

Keith Porter Jr’s family demands accountability for his murder by an off duty alleged ICE agent. #BlackskyNews www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

We need to talk about the rise of "smol bean fascism" where you have all the guns and the immunity but the really scary people are the ones with whistles and phone cameras and they're giving you generational trauma and ptsd by filming you killing people for no reason

They're throwing Bovino out of the moving vehicle in the hopes that we'll abandon the pursuit. Keep the foot on the gas.

Remember when the Bundy militia had snipers in position and pointing their weapons at feds and not one person ended up being shot or even criminally charged? Remember that?
