The simple thing to do then would be to only report what you can 100% verify. Track AIPAC is using different criteria to decide whether a candidate gets the scary red card or the friendly green card. I don't even care what it is, I just know I shouldn't rely on them.

A retribution campaign carried out by the morally depraved and incompetent needs to be documented carefully, and not just for the history books. Because lawyers who make themselves instruments in this campaign really shouldn't be lawyers anymore. www.ft.com/content/a435...

Latest example of how imo the 6th Republican vote has so warped and loosened the majority’s incentives to pretend to care about even the appearance of good argument, much less the myth of the institution’s grandeur, anymore. Yadda yadda yadda, mask-drop, we win, next case. What a tawdry spectacle

There are a LOT of reasons why DSA/Bernie folks didn’t do well with Black voters. Not just the condescension and “low information voters” crap from the early days. But also the arrogant unwillingness to listen to BLACK movement elders who had fought those battles over the course of DECADES, and

A federal judge just struck down parts of Trump’s anti-voting executive order, including his planned effort to force USPS to restrict mail-in ballots. But the fight to protect mail-in voting is far from over.

The same people who cried about prices during Biden are willing to pay even more under Trump because he hates the blacks and Trans people, too. It was never about prices. It was about racism.

FDR was a racist who intentionally left Black Americans out of his new deal. He put Japanese Americans in internment camps and sent Jewish refugees back to Germany, knowing they would be slaughtered. So of course, the DSA kids love saying “we’re FDR Democrats”. No shit Sherlock.

It is one thing for them to be ignorant of all this, many of us pale have been. Staying this ignorant on it is a choice.

Also they keep saying he was a Socialist. No he was not, he was a Capitalist. Yea we would had Medicare for all then, but to many complained to him that black people should not get.

There are a lot of people that don't know what actual poverty is. They think that because they don't have things like a house in a neighborhood of their choosing, then they are poor.

The funny thing here is she’s presenting this as an out-of-the-box, shake things up gamut when it’s like the first thing every right wing us media outlet does. Hire a bunch of Brits from the Fleet Street/Murdoch world. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

also de Blasio froze the rent three times! Mamdani has pushed it up to a two-year freeze, but the main thing here is also that he's very good at *taking credit for doing things.* This is praise, not criticism! It's extremely important for politicians to do this.

Aargh. Where does this garbage come from? One would think that the history of fascism, which the DSA supposedly opposes, ought to raise red flags within the DSA. But somehow…

As a member of Congress, part of my job is to bring federal funds home to Chicago for local projects. But with Project 2025 in full force, the Republican majority has injected partisan politics into the funding process.

I’m proud to cosponsor the Protect Local Funding Act to stop political appointees and MAGA loyalists from taking an unprecedented role in reviewing, approving, and rejecting funds for Illinois residents already paid for in their taxes.

A number of responses to my @liberalcurrents.com essay have reduced it to a complaint about being mean online. It’s not just that. But I reject the idea that online is somehow not real life, that the abuse we give or receive on the internet doesn’t count. www.liberalcurrents.com/the-dirtbags...

It’s no surprise that the driving force behind a policy so callous was Stephen Miller. If implemented, this policy would take us back to a very dark time – clearly his goal.

A tree is not merely wood; it is a natural air conditioner, a source of oxygen, a support for rainfall, and a sanctuary for birds. It is a safeguard for our future. When we cut down trees, we lose more than just greenery; we invite heat, drought, pollution, and suffering. 🌳 Save trees. Save lives.

The utterly glorious porch roof at St John the Baptist, Burford. Anyone who uses 'medieval' as a pejorative should be made to look at this until they promise never to do it again. Photo taken lying on my back shuffling around the floor until I was happy with the framing.
