CHARLIE BROWN: The deal agreed upon today contains major concessions. Lucy, for example, has agreed to give me two attempts at kicking the football tomorrow. But to me? What matters most is that I can at last continue with my important work on the pitcher's mound

Whenever some sanctimonious Dem announces that America needs a functioning Republican Party, I always think “I’d settle for a functioning Democratic Party.”

#OtD 5 Nov 1855 American socialist and labour leader Eugene Debs was born. He helped found both the American Railway Union and the @IWW, and was jailed in 1919 for his opposition to WWI. While in prison he ran for president, and received nearly 1m votes workingclasshistory.com/tag/iww

#OtD 6 Nov 1986 the Iran-Contra scandal — where the US sold arms to Iran to fund right-wing paramilitaries in Nicaragua — began to break. Acting Pres Ronald Reagan said the revelations had "no foundation", which turned out to be a lie stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/1065...

ICYMI: My latest in Jacobin. Conservatives want to use the SNAP freeze to replace the entire program with private charity. But they're already failing. jacobin.com/2025/11/snap...

Zohran's success will hinge equally on what he is ABLE to do and how effectively he messages to voters when the federal govt of wealthy interests / police, etc in NYC deliberately sabotage things. we've seen this shit in oregon with elites lining up to torpedo progressive measures

We live in the most evil country in the world.

ICE shot an American citizen and food bank worker who tried to block them arresting an immigrant by pulling his car in front of them. After being released from hospital: "He is now facing charges for assault on a federal officer." www.calonews.com/featured-top...

I invite anyone who believes this to watch More Perfect Union's mini-documentary on Bernie Sanders and his trip to talk to Trump voters in West Virginia. www.youtube.com/watch?v=RP8O...

Every single day you wake up, look at the news and see something like “parents are allowed to punch teachers now” and then “democrats believe they lost in 2024 for being too effective and likable”

we caught up with @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social about the final stretch of the NYC Mayor's race, Cuomo's embarrassing campaign against him, Trump's threated federal incursions into the city, and how he plans to implement his agenda in his first 100 days. www.patreon.com/posts/142449...

It is painfully clear Republicans are not listening to folks back home.   What families nationwide are saying is: "Please stop my premiums from doubling."   And what are Republican leaders saying? "Not our problem, we never wanted to lower health care costs in the first place."

I've built a socioeconomic system that depends on everyone to do useful work and act ethically except the people at the top, who get unimaginable rewards for being antisocial frauds and criminals. And I think it will stand the test of time

"I hope your beeper doesn't go off." A year ago today, a racist tried to make a 'joke' about me being killed by Israel. It was the 1st time I've ever walked off of live TV. That night CNN said they'd ban the racist from their air. But in the year since, I myself haven't been invited back on CNN.

It’s my first day as a democratic consultant and I just walked over to a dry erase board in the office and wrote “poor people do not want you to tax the rich because it’ll make them feel bad”

this rocks. when indiana edu killed the student newspaper, Purdue stepped up, printed the forbidden issue, drove it to Bloomington and stocked the boxes.

#OtD 14 Oct 1977 anti-gay crusader Anita Bryant was "pied" by Thom Higgins, a gay rights activist. She then began praying and burst into tears. Following a boycott, she lost her job as brand ambassador for Florida orange juice. More LGBT+ history here: workingclasshistory.com/tag/lgbtq/

Hmm I’m quadruple dreaming and 78% of my dreams are incorporating LLMS for full dream optimized instrumentation, I’ve never read a book, but I can dream read 100 book summaries in 1.8 mins,

Quick, someone poll the 4 things in this scary, scary agenda.

Bluesky liberals - heavily influenced by libertarians and right-wing Democrats - love to treat the economy as a distraction from Trump's attack on democracy. Look how Mamdani ties them together. He gets it.

Congrats Dave on laundering the RW manufactured ‘scandal’.

As these numbers make clear, economic populism is wildly popular, but people hate Democrats at some point that even economic populists who run as Democrats pay a price. The solution to this is just to follow the Sanders / Mamdani playbook: run to the left and attack Democrats

It's important to add that voters are not merely interested in improving their own finances: on issue after issue they are specifically interested in curtailing the power of the rich. This isn't just a welfare agenda, this is a fight against capital.

So cool that whenever someone asks the president, “did you eat the Lindbergh baby” he’s like, “no but I’d be allowed to, I have the right to, I might do it later”

i wonder if a sufficient number of viable democrats have it in them to effectively counter a narrative of "i am tanking the economy, firing everyone i can, and sending soldiers to push you around if i dont like the way you think, and also lee greenwood is the only music allowed"

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Like I'm sorry but it's impossible to see people make arguments against helping workers that you wouldn't make on any other issue and not think "these people are my enemy, they want me to suffer"

if they do this to a public person, think about what they do to the ones we don't hear about

“I’m strong and I want to have like fifty kids and a farm” of course you do. You’re twelve. “I don’t want to eat vegetables I think steak and French fries is the only meal” hell yeah homie you’re twelve. “Maybe if there’s crime we should just send the army” bless your heart my twelve year old buddy
