this is a perfect illustration of the three kinds of democrats (kat is the rarest kind)

Was trying to remember a Will Forte quote from Tim & Eric’s Billion Dollar Movie and accidentally figured out how to make Google’s AI tool shut up

Same set that told you shoplifting required a full police state.

very weird “I am Spartacus” thing happening right now with the worst people on earth

I'm convinced one of the reasons epstein was able to coast for so long is that for many sensible people including and especially educated liberals, viewing the world through a conspiratorial lens was always seen as vaguely distasteful and rube-coded

ELON MUSK: your island is so freaking like, based. it's seriously like effing amazeballs. i'm going to basically be making like all of mars totally just like the same as how epic this is STEPHEN HAWKING: jeff rey why, did you in vite, this lame, ass nerd

over time i've come to think that many people are not actually superfans of useless dems, as much as they are engineering ways to allow themselves to maintain faith that the system works, smart people are in charge. they want this kind of talk, and give themselves reasons why they aren't getting it.

People will do literally anything to avoid saying the American left was right

They had to combine millennials and Gen Z so it wouldn't look as distressing. We basically don't have any money.

if you vote for another cent for this you are a collaborator. this is a litmus test for every politician for the rest of my life

@democrats.org I will not vote for, endorse, campaign for, or donate to any candidate or party that endorses the continued existence of the Department of Homeland Security. Because I will not vote for fascism.

Listening to D electeds talking about ICE makes me think the only way out of this is a Trump-style hostile takeover of the D party by an outsider demogogue who treats Congressional Dems the way Trump treats Congressional Rs.

If he wants to declare martial law, he will. It won't be based on reality. I don't know why some people continue to say: "be peaceful or he'll invoke martial law." Are you all living in this country in 2026???? Haven't you seen them make things up out of whole cloth???? Are you 10 years old?

"Short Stack" lol. "Oh you're a little guy too" 😭

ICE, get the fuck out of Minneapolis or we WILL lock up our own citizens

you should hear what this man has to say

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

Incredible stuff

the reason people sometimes act madder at democrats than republicans when republicans do impossibly evil shit is the same reason why, if you hired an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he showed up to feed and play with them instead, your first instinct wouldn’t be to yell at the roaches

Perhaps now people will stop wishcasting about the US military refusing illegal orders. That's not a thing that happens. The 100% compliance rate with using civilian boats for target practice was a bit of a tell.

"don't call us" is so funny. if you get deported don't come to us begging for inscrutable blue wave pidgin posts and hideous chatGPT memes about it!!

Chappell checking Wikipedia for French actresses to sub in for future live performances of Red Wine Supernova, checking the “Personal Life” section for each, and getting more and more concerned

Idk when Texas is having its senator primaries, but vote for Tallarico over Crockett, Crockett is saying some incredibly racist shit towards immigrants rn.

“Tell your children who the cowards were.”

it is a hell of a thing to ask, like, liberal arts college cultural studies majors to become the nation's inquisitors. but, we are being faced with genuine evil. I do not see another way past it. we either accept the internal conflicts of what we must become, or fail

The thing about this picture is all four of them seem more genuinely happy in it than in any picture I’ve seen of them ever since

Important to understand the Epstein stuff and the fascism and the corruption are, in a lot of ways, really all the same story from different angles: powerful men who can and do abuse vulnerable people around them because they can, and because systems of elite accountability catastrophically failed

whatever you think of Spanberger, the fact that her opponent ran a campaign based almost entirely on transphobia and is on track to eat shit in the biggest blowout the state has seen since 2009 is unambiguously a huge win

The Baileys rn:

I do have a litmus test for my candidates now and it's that I want them to be genuinely pissed off, not pretend pissed off

every passing day, rightwingers are inventing new and unexpected ways to signal to the world they may be the dumbest iteration of humans so far

Jon consults the Declaration of Independence to see if Trump meets the "king" qualifications

Abolish ICE. Bulldoze the ballroom. Jail the collaborators. Should be the Democratic platform.

There's a polite society? Where? I wanna go there

Greta Thunberg “I'm not scared of Israel. I’m scared of a world that has seemingly lost all sense of humanity.” Stand with Greta, stand with humanity.

When the Orwellian named Dept of Homeland Security was created … MANY of us predicted that it would eventually be doing all the things that it is doing right now Pinning it uniquely on Trump really misses the point in a bunch of ways

You lose objectivity once you get to the medium boys table because you can see the edge of the big boys table so you spend all your time frantically searching for booster seats

I beg of you, please, do not make me have to defend Bill Maher from government censorship

The fact that Charlie Kirk was viewed as some kind of a Titan of free speech and debate shows a bizarre trend where it somehow became acceptable for adult non student conservatives to invade college campuses and talk about why women and black people shouldn’t have basic civil liberties

The Biden-Harris admin deciding that shutting down anti-genocide speech was more worthwhile than shutting down the genocide itself helped lead us to Trump-Vance, which is shredding whatever was left of the “First Amendment” & mockingly revealing how hollow their allies’ commitments to it were

oh god its the coalition of the willing but as farce
