Absolutely right. Call them all, call them repeatedly, don't stop.

Amen to @mattufford.bsky.social here mattufford.com/2026/01/24/t...

And this is much better still

The government is murdering people in the streets. The LEAST we can do is not fund it. @vanhollen.senate.gov , @alsobrooks.senate.gov , SHUT DOWN THE SENATE. No bills, no confirmations, NOTHING until this ends. We demand it!

Remember that every accusations is a confession. The reason Republicans believe (or pretend to believe) that ICE protesters are paid is that they have no principles and would themselves only stand up for their community if they were being paid.

Shout out to the top 5 goods in the world. It's all, up to no, finger lickin', Johnny B, and Renee.

Next time anyone accuses you of being "far left", keep in mind that the following opinions have a majority of support: - Abolishing ICE - Restoring Roe v Wade - Increased gun control - Taxing the rich - Raising the minimum wage Opposing these things is the radical position.

Make it viral.

Today's WaPo headlines: - White House floats military option for Greenland, rattling Denmark and NATO - Fear grips Caracas as a new wave of repression is unleashed - White House publishes website that rewrites history of Jan. 6 attack Good work, America.

One reason Venezuela won't be another Iraq: Back in the early 2000s, after lying us into war, the media felt some obligation to continue to try to accurately report on the status of Iraq and the occupation, and W at least claimed to abide by the "Pottery Barn Rule".

I once passed by Mark Linn-Baker, the guy who played Cousin Larry on Perfect Strangers, crossing the street in NYC.

A fantastic article about true heroes actually doing the Lord's (or Flying Spaghetti Monster's) work. Please read it. bittersoutherner.com/issue-no-12/...

Gavin Newsom is Mitt Romney for the Democrats, a department store mannequin who will lose in a general election

precious few of our national level leaders have acted as heroes this year. That has largely been a role foisted upon regular people to bear the burden of being courageous in the face of authoritarianism. Senator Van Hollen saving Kilmar’s life is an exception - a genuine act of heroism.

This is like Mr Rogers picking up Mjolnir

MD, OR & IL can all immediately draw new maps via their legislatures. Do it. CO, NY & NJ require constitutional amendments. NY & NJ can pass via legislature. CO would need a ballot initiative. Do it. CA did it. VA is doing it. Do it. Do it now.

MD Democrats: Us, gerrymander? VA Democrats: Us, gerrymander!

CNBC headline: "Dow rises 400 points as weak ADP jobs report spurs rate cut hopes" Translation: Investors are glad the public is suffering because it makes it more likely the government will continue rig the economy in their favor. The system is broken.

you know what? good advice.

The people that are asking "What if Clinton is in the Epstein files?" are confessing that they don't really care if Trump is and presume everyone else is as morally bankrupt as they are.

Stop patting senators on the head unless they are calling for schumer's removal. Everything else is just in the script

Don't look now but State Navigate is projecting Democrats to get a supermajority in the Virginia State Legislature, going from 51-49 to 64-36. Crazy! projects.statenavigate.com/25-26/states...

This is still a democracy. I'll be damned if we're gonna just give these pathetic fascists power they don't have.

@keithlaw.bsky.social, serious question for you (somewhat in hindsight): Does game theory factor into any of this managing? Don't you have to play out what happens post-bunt? "What would Doc do?" has to be asked. And then the answer is clear: Walk Barger to get the slowest man in baseball to GIDP.

Impressive. Cuz media are complicit.

reading slaughterhouse 5 for the first time and i was absolutely knocked senseless by this passage, which is so true and relevant that it feels like it was pulled from a history book

Everyone talking about making tearing down Trump's Epstein Ballroom a prerequisite for running for President in 2028 isn't thinking big enough. A homeless shelter? The new Ellis Island? An orphanage for children of countries we have bombed? A methadone clinic? Why not all of the above!?!

Many people are outraged that Trump is demolishing part of the White House. But of course Trump can't do it without help. It's ACECO LLC of Silver Spring MD ("full-service demolition") that is tearing down the People's House. You can call them and let them know how you feel. 1/

And of course there's more. Once again, this is WHO THEY ARE. This is a Trump admin nominee. Not a kid - not a rando (the other ones weren't either). If you are a Republican, this is what your Party is now. www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

Even more #nokings in Rockville, MD

More No Kings in Rockville, MD. Amazing. #nokings

Rockville,MD. #nokings

Find a No Kings protest Saturday and go! Don't worry that you've never been to a protest before. Don't worry about being dressed wrong or looking out of place. Don't worry that you don't agree about everything -- or even about much -- with lots of people at the protest. /1

To everyone who says, "But this won't matter": *MAKE IT MATTER.* You have that power! This is not inside baseball and your friends and neighbors will likely be appalled. And if they're *not* appalled, don't be cynical yourself. Take the lead, give the cue.

Read this. Read it all. This is your modern Republican party. If you vote Republican you support this - all of it. This isn't anomalous - this is the future leaders of the party emulating what the current leadership does. You cannot work with these people. www.politico.com/news/2025/10...
