Democrats have nothing to do with Platner's candidacy: 🦪recruited by fmr Sanders staffer, Bernie Bro, DSA socialist Daniel Moraff 🦪deal was closed by fmr Fetterman staffer Joe Calvello 🦪being advised by The Fight Agency, founded by fmr Sanders & Fetterman consultants bsky.app/profile/gree...

Who you say you are, what you say you believe, your identity as a citizen of this country, are all on the table. “Are you prepared to stand and watch as Black political representation is erased? Do you not yet understand that this is also your fight if you have any hope of living in a democracy?”

english isn't for cowards. if you're not saying 'torpify,' that's a skill issue. there's no Académie Française telling you what to do. if you try to type 'pallific' and freak out when you see a little red underline, maybe you're not ready to roll with the big dogs.

I searched the term ‘51st’ at Fetterman’s X account. You know I have a lot of patience with screenshotting things, but there were so many posts from him claiming he would be the big 51st Dem vote to get things done that I didn’t even get to them all. Just a taste. 👇😒

I'm sorry, but I've got to talk about this, because this shit is dangerous. It's a truth universally acknowledged that *at the very least until relatively recently,* Graham Platner was a scumbag. The type of reddit chud who'd blame women for being raped and muse about imagined failings of Black ppl

This was a ridiculously fun quiz! german.millermanschool.com

(1/13) As someone who professionally taught, tutored, and mentored until I retired and now does it for funsies, I'm acutely aware that despite how available knowledge is today... not everyone has constructed an autodidactic framework for themselves. If that's you, you may want to bookmark this.

This is obviously correct. The MAGA faithful don't seem to care and I think it's for three reasons. 1. They're the most thoughtless political constituency on earth, somehow both super tapped into politics while at the same time the least likely to ever think things through to their consequences.

Every summer I repost this article on how to spot drowning. Please read it and pass on. In the last few years I’ve had SIX messages from people who saved a kid’s life after clicking on the link from my feed. slate.com/technology/2...

two fairly useful heuristics: 1) if someone is talking about cutting income taxes it is not For You 2) if someone is talking about cutting payroll taxes they are trying to shred the safety net

And yet, the states where abortion is legal, LGBT people have rights, and voting rights aren’t being rolled back are overwhelmingly Democrat-controlled.

Kids have a lot of questions, and when it comes to constitutional rights, we have the answers. Our new series, Know Your Rights University, helps explain topics like free speech in a fun and age-appropriate way.

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.

Spiralling global temperatures (1850-2026) It is exactly 10 years since I first put this animated graphic of changes in global temperature online. #ClimateSpiral It instantly went viral. People watched it over and over again. It still offers the power to shock a decade on.

The day has finally arrived. You can now *officially* watch puffins live from the Farne Islands, 24 hours a day: bit.ly/4tRz72T Please enjoy these puffins kissing in celebration of this momentous event.

*taps the sign about the 2016 primary results because of that dumbass wehraboo’s 12-minute video talking with a 3-time Trump voter who probably relates with him being “rabidly anti-Hillary” & evidently unable to do math*

This seems to be one of the better options for Supreme Court reform (with the caveat that it would require *full* control of Congress to pass it). www.liberalcurrents.com/break-up-the...

I’m seeing nonsense & have thread time. Yes, if Democrats flip the House of Representatives, Hakeem Jeffries will be the Speaker of the House. Yes, it’s a given. No, it’s not in doubt. Yes, you do sound very ignorant when you suggest otherwise. Yes, at this point you do usually sound racist.

Another day in the life of disinformation - Reddit Hopefully that doesn't mean 11,000 ppl got hoodwinked by disinformation--cause that would be SHAMEFUL Additional details...

Just to type this out once as apparnelty this is a huge bot issue now... Mitch mcconnell didn't really stop anything from a minority. Everything they state that was "shut down" was when the gop was majority. Obama passed obamacare, financial regulations, recovery act, reform of nclb and way more.

Came across this concept and article today, and holy crap it explains so much. www.milwaukeeindependent.com/thom-hartman...

The use of the slur is pretty open and closed proof that Graham has not changed in his use of slurs but for some reason pretty much no one wants to put it that way, we have proof gang he's the same as he was posting on reddit

They think you're stupid.

Hey kids,who wants a plate of freshly made disappointment?

Sunday

How it should be: Primary: Apple pie is my favorite, so it gets my vote. General: I don't like pecan pie, but a lot of my friends do, so I'll support it for their sake and hope they support one of my choices later on.

When I know it's definitely a trap, but I'm going anyway.

House Dems Press Avail on Ending Trump’s Reckless War They discuss the risks, dangers, what's at stake, and their plans to push the War Powers resolution through Congress and try to get some GOP folks on board so that it passes successfully www.youtube.com/live/hu3tL9J...

Oh look Democrats are on the steps of the Capitol, demanding Congress be called back and end this war, and oust this President. Do Something asshats will have to move those goalposts yet again.

So as you read the news now, and we struggle for what will inevitably be YEARS to get back to some kind of stable situation, and the media praises trump for his "deals"... REMEMBER. Obama, a Democrat, solved all of this a decade ago. And Trump, a republican, fucked it up.

1. Government isn’t a business. 2. Even if it was, voters aren’t the customers…we’re the HR Dept. WE decide who to hire and fire. We decided to hire Trump back again even after he nearly destroyed the “company “ the last time we were stupid enough to hire him & even after firing him once.

Here's the fun fact: Dems have been making speeches on the steps and elsewhere, and making ruckus since the goblin was inaugurated. The reason folks act like they haven't is because the legacy media refuses to cover them, and folks' media diets pretend it never happened even when proof is presented

I’m so bored by the discourse. Leftists want credit for beating Harris but no blame for electing Trump. Only Democrats have agency; only Dems deserve criticism. If a leftist did something awful last week, they’ve grown and we owe forgiveness. If a Dem voted wrong on a bill in 1996, they’re evil.

Ex: Delia Ramirez (who’s Methodist) and Daniel Biss (who’s Jewish) both took money from J-Street employees and neither took money from AIPAC. Guess which one gets the red background with flames and a black & white photo, and which gets the green background with normal colors.

How come when Congressional Democrats do something folks don't like, it's the "Democratic Party," but when Congressional Republicans do something folks don't like, it's "Congress"?

first time really tuning into a war? welcome. Let’s go over some rules of how to behave. These are going to be especially important if it’s a war you oppose. 1. You are allowed an opinion. This is America. Whether you served or not. It’s done in your name so might as well speak up. 🧵

In all seriousness though, elder millennial jokes aside, I think it’s important to resist the media framing of any mainstream resistance to the status quo as just the shrill nonsense of middle-aged women with nothing better to do. This isn’t the first time they’ve run out this playbook.

Conspiracy brain has ruined the left.

"I avoid politics." No bestie, you avoid uncomfortable conversations about politics. From the moment you were born til the day you die, you've been thoroughly and utterly enmeshed in the policies, systems, and governance of a society that shapes your experience. You just try not to think about it.

I was invited to my best friend's wedding, but I didn't like the entree choices for the reception, so I decided not to go.

"The politician's job is to *win the election*." NO. Their job is to *govern*. The voters' job is to select the one who will best govern (for everyone). The election is the means, not the goal. Treating the election as the goal is half the reason we get so many terrible people in office.
