🧵 1. Klobuchar and Senate Dems shut down the government last fall in order to stop these ACA price hikes. But they CHICKENED OUT and the only change they won was a ban on THC drinks. This was failed leadership by Dem leaders, including Klob, who couldn't control their caucus.

El-Sayed: Shouldn't be this hard to pay your taxes and know that that money is going to be spent on you rather than to drop bombs on somebody else and their kids

Fascism is here. If you’re not alarmed you’re not paying attention. “Left-wing political terrorism” will mean those who oppose the regime — while actual right-wing extremism is allowed to grow and thrive. We are very far off the cliff, folks.

Kids today are weak. A little smoke in the air and everything is cancelled. My parents took me out to eat and wouldn’t care if we ended up in the smoking section. (Puffs off asthma inhaler)

The richest people ever to live have stolen your country and want your freedom just to add zeros they can never spend.

we really need to go back to calling these people weirdos

Massive win for trans rights! This is why being vocal matters 👏

Just spitballin' here, but taxing the rich, universal healthcare, and a functioning social safety net would be a lot better than performative instagram influencer charity. I suppose our senior senator hasn't thought much about this kind of stuff tho.

One minor thing that annoys me personally about this shit is that some people romanticize a blue collar white boy aesthetic but can’t tell an actual working class backwoodser from a rich aspiring dirtbag who went to Hotchkiss

Lake Superior is wild. 1/2 mile uphill from the lake it’s 74 degrees. 100 feet from the lake and all of a sudden you need a winter coat.

Wait so the guy with a Nazi tattoo, racist and misogynistic internet posts, who lied about his wealthy upbringing, while being an oyster farmer for his mommy’s restaurant, and having sexts with someone that wasn’t his wife is also violent against women? Who could have see that coming?

Mamdani: "Therein lies the work of America -- a striving, a bettering, the reaching toward perfection. What a privilege each of us has to live in a nation that every one of its inhabitants can shape. What a responsibility each of us possesses to prove ourselves worthy of all those who came before."

James Talarico: I think about the maternal mortality crisis, where you see Black women dying at three times the rate of other mothers. And so I've rolled out a plan in consultation with a lot of community leaders to figure out what we can do to address this crisis.

I’m not sure if @clairewillett.bsky.social drinks but it would be amazing to see her do a Drunk History episode of SSPX. Or have her write it for someone else to do if she doesn’t drink.

It's interesting how everything people used to proudly call "public" when I was growing up (public parks, public libraries, public schools, public transportation, public television, etc) is suddenly "socialist" now that rich people are spinning it.

Dear Media. Vatican II wasn’t just about praying or not in Latin. *Vatican II decided to be less antisemitic. By a lot. * And now Pope Leo (like Francis) is reading the Bible HARD, all that “love immigrants” & “care for others” “🖕 Empire” stuff?! This story is not complicated.

THE VATICAN IS CALLING IT A SCHISM I REPEAT HOUSTON, WE HAVE A SCHISM

the centrists constantly whine about the left, but it's the right flank that really kneecapped them.

Mars deserves better. Not two, random, idiot-potato-rock strays.

The middle class is being legitimately liquidated and there’s almost no attention being paid to it and corporate media is too busy chasing the market’s profit to really even discuss what is obviously an epochal moment.

Trump’s $2.2 billion dollar crypto “profit” isn’t from public purchases, they’re bribes. The scandal isn’t that Trump made that much money, it’s that he’s manufactured one scam after another that has made it possible for the wealthy and other nations to bribe him with impunity.

BREAKING: Melat Kiros has won the Democratic primary in Colorado’s 1st district. The democratic socialist has unseated the district’s 29-year incumbent by running on Medicare for All, abolishing ICE, ending forever wars and more.

the official publication of the American Jesuits using the word "schismatic" is a sign that things are really popping off

BUT. This guy took *four months off* without even informing the people who elected him. He would never - and in fact hasn’t! - supported anything even CLOSE to the care he got. I worked all kinds of jobs for years through awful, suicidal mental health crises, as have so many other people. 2.

people got mad at me yesterday when i said the dems were not ready to take court reform seriously. 5-4 for non-racial citizenship is not a win, it's a reprieve bsky.app/profile/schu...

Trans people, I am hereby ordering you to live. Let us spite our foes with our continued existence

Clarence Thomas is not a biology expert Sex is bimodal - it's why intersex people exist Sex is mutable - it's why HRT works Transness is innate - it's why we have existed throughout human history and across cultures He and the court are the ones who lie

Be the Mon Mothma that you wish to see in the world Because our elected representatives sure as hell ain't being her

Before I transitioned, I ironically was accused of being a secret trans woman all the time simply because I was 5'11" Are all tall girls going to have invasive genital inspections or unnecessary genetic testing now? What a sham of a ruling devoid of both logic and empathy

POCAN: You are a Christian nationalist by declaration VOUGHT: This is the second time you've used that slander POCAN: You wrote an article, 'Is there anything actually wrong with Christian nationalism'

We are swiftly headed for a society in which a trans kid must undergo state mandated torture, are banned from being on line, are banned from hanging out in most public spaces, are banned from using bathrooms at school, banned from accessing the health care they need, and banned from playing sports.

Fuck every single Democrat that has ever been willing to compromise on trans dignity, rights and humanity. I hope you assholes are pleased with yourselves. I don’t know if you could’ve prevented this moment, but you should’ve been fighting every step of the way.

I am the proud daughter of Guatemalan immigrants.

I am a proud “anchor baby.”

AND I AM AN AMERICAN!

See, people always want to make this just about "sports," but the real upshot here is that, 6-3, trans women can't make a claim under the Equal Protection Clause. And if they can't do that, it's hard to see how they have constitutional rights.

if you're trans, you have to live. one day you can live to see these guys all die.

Clarence Thomas's concurring opinion in the trans sports ban case in West Virginia contains some of the ugliest transphobic stuff I have ever seen in a legal opinion. Straight-up gleeful. Vile man. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

The Title IX loss is most concerning. This will absolutely be used to enforce school bathroom bans. (and was the whole point of the far right pursuing sports ban in the first place)

bigots

Probably the worst outcome, but not surprising.

fuck these motherfuckers for real

Trans rights are human rights always and forever.

Today the South will finally declare victory in the Civil War with ending Birthright Citizenship. Please prove me wrong.

This is a really clever answer on the filibuster:

A policy expert described Education Secretary Linda McMahon’s push in favor of private schools as a “great American heist,” funneling money from public schools: “It’s a strategic theft of the future of our country, our kids and our democracy.” (Published Oct. 2025)

a reminder for the people who insist trump is patient zero that as you read alito's scotus decisions this all precedes trump. it's bush. it's always bush. installed in the white house by scotus, he installed judges to pervert scotus. its always bush.

Trump's DOE broke a promise that would've protected UAW jobs and opened new shifts at this Lansing GM plant Meanwhile, GM spends billions on stock buybacks every year, benefitting wealthy investors over workers In Congress I'll fight to ban stock buybacks and pass the PRO Act
