Are you in Wisconsin, and do you want to vote in the upcoming state supreme court race in 3 weeks? Your deadline to register to vote *online* is TODAY! Don't miss out. And learn about why the election matters: boltsmag.org/wisconsin-su...

If you wish people had come forward sooner, help create a world where they feel safe doing so, where it isn't going to ruin their mental health and haunt them for years. Or, you know. Shut the fuck up.

Even in this environment, it seems like only way for progressives to win is to build broad coalitions. Mamdani's win seemed tenuous until Lander pushed him over the line. I believe either Amiwala or Simmon's support would have secured a victory for Kat. Illinois’ 7th Congressional District.

This is what ICE has done to journalist Estefany Rodriguez.

Woke 2.0 has come for… conservative sheriffs in Florida?

If he's going to get a national profile on the strength of a younger woman's campaign, I'm going to come out and say it: during his short-lived tenure as a math professor, Biss had an inappropriate romantic relationship with one of his undergraduate students. I was that student.

Decommissioning minesweepers immediately before starting a war with Iran also (charitably) does not seem like a good strategy. "Unlike the minesweepers, which have a long history of being battle-tested, the LCS with the MCM package has never been deployed in combat."

Hard disagree. If all democrats were despondent, then the primary victories of Mamdani, Mejia, Talarico, Sadler, and others would have never occurred

It took an acute arrogance for Dems to lose this seat. Sef Casim narrowly beat his opponent in the primary. Then got exposed for a series of bigoted tweets. Refused to drop out, and now has lost the general.

Wisconsin specific PSA: deadline to register to vote in the Supreme Court race is coming up mid-March. 1. Even if you think you’re registered, verify. 2. If you plan to register by mail: the deadline is 3/18 but *MAKE SURE TO DO IT DAYS EARLY* because new USPS rules: boltsmag.org/usps-postmar...

"The only truth is we are a threat. We are a threat to their corrupt system. ... To those who love our neighbors, it's time to start flipping tables." Talarico didn't mince any words in his primary victory speech.

Chuck Rocha explains why a runoff is a disaster for Cornyn. Talarico vs Paxton after an extended battle with Cornyn is the best case for Texas Dems.

There’s a good reason why hubris comes up so often in Greek mythology.

People are complaining about Spanberger not using "stronger" language - I think this quote from her response to the 2020 election reveals her ethos. She understands the power in how an issue is framed. Just because she refuses to embrace leftist language does not mean her values are not progressive.

2026 might be the year of Blexas

Video proof this really happened!

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing people local newspaper reporters are rarified elites instead of ink-stained wretches driving their Honda Civic to a crime scene so you know don’t have to rely on Nextdoor and the police press release.

One thing that doesn't get talked about enough is that Dems will get their views throttled as soon as the election heats up again. It already happened during 2024 and will happen again in the lead up to November. There is no amount of posting that can circumvent an algorithmic feed.

Where is my Spanberger 2028 merch? "'She’s the same thing as Mamdani in New York, except that Mamdani at least admits that he’s a socialist,' said Bryce E. Reeves, a Republican state senator."

This should be a bigger outrage than trying to silence Kimmel. Well done @jamestalarico.bsky.social, I found myself nodding in agreement for the duration of the interview.

In Connecticut, no incumbent U.S. House representative has ever faced a primary challenger on the ballot. A report by Andy Gottlieb found that "Connecticut has the most restrictive primary ballot access laws in the nation."

That halftime show is what people mean when they say "joy is an act of resistance."

A desperate plea sent to me by a Minneapolis resident who's been on the front lines since the beginning of the ICE occupation:

Hey, folks in CT-3! If you want your district to have a Democratic primary, you gotta sign a petition! This video from @denoble.bsky.social explains the whole deal - check it out!

Malinowski currently has 27.7% of the vote. Assuming the other candidates remain at 30% of the total vote, he would need 44.1% of the remaining vote to win.

A Connecticut primary ballot against an incumbent has never happened for a House race! You can help @denoble.bsky.social make history by signing his early petition here: damjanforct.com If you can't sign then please help increase visibility by reposting or sharing the link

Utterly shameful that concetration camps exist on US soil

@analilia-mejia.bsky.social up by 486 votes with 91% of the vote counted. She just might pull it off!

We need to disabuse ourselves of the notion that our representatives will act in our best interests when left untended. It is an immutable truth that our rights are secure only as long as we defend them tooth and nail.

Seemingly all of Bluesky has taken reporting by Nexstar-owned The Hill and taken it at face value. Watch the actual video of the press conference and tell me if the article is a faithful representation of the facts.

I love that phrasing, "a little bit brave." You don't need any one person to be super brave if you can get a lot of people to be a little brave.

Wow, I was not expecting him to double down on this position. The smart move would have been to throw the ICE agents who killed Pretti under the bus, but it seems they have no coherent strategy other than “deny reality”
