You are coming after one of the last major institutions capable of protecting my community. At that point, you are not an ally. You are the opposition, and you’ll be treated as such.

But if all you do is attack the Democratic Party while Black leaders are being targeted, Black voting rights are being dismantled, Black political power is under assault, and HBCUs are under attack, then don’t expect me to treat you any differently than I treat Trump and his MAGA acolytes.

🧵 Folks, I’m tired… and I know a whole lot of us are tired. Our party isn’t perfect. Our leaders aren’t perfect. But there are people right now putting everything they have into standing up in this moment. Constructive criticism matters. Accountability matters.

Yeah, when I hear progressives list their wish list for the next White House under a Democrat, I want to say “with what money and what government?” Also, it will take a president blowing tons of political capital to rebuild the government

I am sure you did.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! www.blessyouboys.com/detroit-tige...

There are a lot of smart people in the world. Unfortunately, many of them are also quite stupid.

Great 🧵. I grew up in the same environment in the 80s and this is spot on.

Breakfast of Runners-up

I know everyone is invested in making Kamala Harris’s loss all about their special issue, but it still amazes me how little the global post-COVID backlash against incumbent parties is mentioned. It should probably be prominently featured in any analysis of the 2024 election.

It is possible to condemn antisemitic attacks whilst opposing genocide of Palestinians. It's not one or the other; it's just what is right. Opposing Israel's ethnic cleansing is not antisemitic; opposing antisemitic attacks on Jewish communities is not pro-Israel. It's just basic human decency.

to this point, remember how we were telling you racists would interpret any anger or overt aggression Jeffries would display as cartoonishly racist sterotypes? The anger is playing checkmate but, the stereotypical, typical "thug" and now "LOW IQ" bigotry is always on time.

Name your top 15 TV shows ever, gut instincts only— 30 Rock Kids in the Hall Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist MST3K Breaking Bad Deadwood Fargo SNL The Expanse Six Feet Under Star Trek: TNG The Wire Seinfeld Watchmen (This was harder than I expected)

Surprised to see Bouie as the guest on Scott Hasn’t Seen this week. Also, spoiler alert, I believe this came about because of BlueSky. This place continues to have the juice!

This is *exactly* what I'm talking about when I say that no matter the quality of the information source, these folks will develop a conspiracy theory that justifies ignoring it at best, actively undermining it at worst. Conspiracy-brain slopulist nonsense is a brainworm.

Maine voters didn’t choose him. There wasn’t a vote. They chose Mills though. Twice. He was a rich kid that signed up for the military so he could kill people, got a Nazi tattoo, praised right wing podcasters and voted for Susan Collins. He’s never done a damn thing for working people.

As far as old tweet scandals go, this might be the most boring one ever. CNN did an investigation for THiS? 😂

Best way to get the Tigers to score runs is for me to leave the room. Instant dingers. #DetroitTigers

*sees they dropped the Callais ruling* Yeah the answer is elect more Democrats like it was 2-4 months ago & like it was in 2024, 2020, & 2016. Ya know, instead of giving Republicans the Senate & the ability to deny a Democratic appointee & then to add multiple appointees themselves.

But I was told Biden did nothing but arm the genocide because he loves genocide.

Parents, if you don’t talk to your children about Will Stancil, someone else will.

He said affordability is top priority, he didn’t say they wouldn’t move for impeachment. You all just want to be mad at him. Trump’s approval on the economy is shit right now and we’re surrounded by idiots who vote based on egg prices. Perhaps there’s a strategy here that wasn’t designed for you!

I don’t have a 5 timer, but I’ve had to watch A Minecraft Movie 3 times (so far) and I think I deserve credit for that because it’s one of the worst movies ever made. I was playing Minecraft a lot with my son at the time, so I thought I’d find it at least tolerable, but no, absolutely terrible.

Post your favorite Lord of the Rings character. Wrong answers only.

You meet the loveliest people on Al Gore’s internet. Also, how does one “shit the fuck up”?

People on Threads were talking about David Cross saying racist shit and just generally being an asshole and of course someone chimed in to say it was all a smear campaign because he spoke out against Israel. The omnicause remains undefeated.

Tentatively played this for my 10 yo son after he acquired a collection of 21 smashed pennies at the Shedd aquarium in Chicago. Thankfully he thought it was hilarious.

What I've learned from all these PodBros (Hassan, Von, Rogan, Shapiro, The Young Turks, etc.) they all enjoy making money off of idiots.

Instead of theft, I support a robust welfare state that supports people even if they, for whatever reason, aren't able to be employed. I think instead of letting people steal things, society should give them things, voluntarily, so that they can survive and don't need to steal. Just an idea I have.

Just made fun of my wife for watching 90210 and now I’m going to triumphantly head upstairs to turn on my Godzilla show.

let's fuckin go, leader jeffries.

Republicans need to be made to understand pain. There is no getting out with our democracy intact without that first happening.

Exactly. What did folks think "touch the stove" meant?

Americans could vote billionaires out of existence at any time, but they love their bigotry more than they hate the massive wealth inequality in this country.

If you don't know what misogynoir looks like, this is it👇🏽

That Tigers/Red Sox game was ridiculous and the Tigers were particularly awful. They deserved to lose that one. Shake it off and on to the next one.

“In the beginning the universe was created. This made a lot of people very unhappy and has widely been regarded as a bad move.”

Caglione has one hell of an arm. He doesn’t just throw hard, it’s accurate. Maybe we shouldn’t run on that guy anymore! 😂

Saw that I had 30+ notifications and was like “Oh no, who did I piss off”. Thankfully it was just a glitch.

When Platner and Omar say they want to work with right-wingers in a bipartisan manner, they get cheers. Harris and Biden say it? Everyone loses their minds. The double standards are so obvious.

most hot take political podcasting and streaming is reactionary by design and necessity; if you’re trying to eke out a living with this stuff (and not just treating it as a hobby), the takes must flow, rain or shine, night or day, people aren’t paying for “i suppose we will have to wait and see”

Graham Platner mixed up Ron Paul and Rand Paul, then practically glowed while dumping on Democrats. Why is he running in a Democratic primary instead of as an Independent? This reads like infiltration. Bragging that he wants the Epstein files released? That's the bare minimum, not a moral flex.

Great move by the Tigers here. McGonigle is a special talent. Worth the risk.

On Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember the six million Jews who were murdered by the Nazis. We honor their memory by our commitment to Never Forget — and we must put those words into action by fighting bigotry and hate in all its forms.

I don’t like steak and people act like I’m absolutely deranged for it.

"liberals are actually intolerant of other perspectives" mate, our team includes bush era neocons, communists, nurses, teachers, most unions, basically *every* academic, all the social justice movements, & the supreme pontif of the catholic church

Attention all employees: Have you nurtured your connection to the founder today?

Whoever generated this image should go straight to prison. For life.

this is exactly why I get so annoyed by people who say “oh I live in a blue state, it doesn’t matter who I vote for so I’ll protest vote for the Green Party” when you’re up against fascists, you need as big of a margin as possible

I'd like to impress upon Americans that the Hungarian people removed Orban and his fascist party from power... By VOTING. That's the real "they don't want you to know this...". They don't want you to figure out that voting is powerful, and that we the people hold that power - unless we give it up
