People honestly think that she should run again

Yet again I remind everyone (as Elizabeth does in her very next tweet) that "foreigners are corrupting our pure blood with weakness & disease" is Fascism 101. Not some variant, not some metaphorically similar thing, not some echo -- the thing itself.

Scenes from a personalist regime: A nominee to an independent federal body refuses to acknowledge that the President ever lost an election.

A mass shooting that took the lives of eight children should stop this country in its tracks. Instead, the Shreveport tragedy disappeared from the headlines in a day. We cannot allow this level of violence to fade into background noise. Ending America’s gun‑violence epidemic is a moral oblligation.

ghoulish

You watch Jon Ossoff speak like this about the actual stakes & then you watch Andy Beshear speak about Funny Words, & the abject poverty of the latter approach to Democratic politics in 2026 is so stark that you don't know whether to laugh or cry about the latter.

not the vicar of christ with another absolute banger of a post

This is the message Elizabeth Warren & a lot of other supposedly progressive Democrats are sending, loudly & clearly, to American Jews.

Palantir put out the most cartoonishly evil statement possible. They’re so arrogant and self-confident they don’t seem to believe their fascistic plans can be opposed. We must get rid of Palantir altogether. twitter-thread.com/t/2045574398...

I'm pretty tuned into Democratic politics and I have never in my life heard anyone ever use the phrase "justice involved population." But thank you for now vouching for the existence of that phrase and letting Fox News do a thousand pieces about it.

Today in "Zohran Mamdani is good at politics"

the president of the united states is personally looting the treasury to the tune of literally billions of dollars and that he is not being immediately removed from office and tried for high crimes against this country is a devastating indictment of every part of our political system

We need to be honest about what we are seeing here. The Iranian government is still the same theocratic dictatorship and the Iranian people are in desperate straits after the US promised them liberation. The Iranians still control the Strait of Hormuz, still maintain their right to collect tolls...

...still have their nuclear program and have Trump promising to return them $20 billion in frozen assets. The markets also have concluded that this is the end, Trump has thrown in the towel. A massive strategic failure by the USA.

Congress’ War Powers vote fails by exactly one vote (214-213). Funny how this keeps happening!

The kids these days will hardly believe it, but a mere two years ago, the mental & physical (lack of) acuity of Elderly Presidents was the Great Issue of Our Time. Someone should tell Jake Tapper & Alex Thompson, so they can write a book on it.

An Israel-Lebanon ceasefire is a weird thing to tout, since Lebanon isn't a combatant. There is no Lebanese fire for the Lebanese government to cease.

Again: Couple this with his enthusiasm for burning bodies of Iraqis he killed and... He just seems like a psycho!

For Netanyahu, the war in Gaza was not enough. Iran was not enough. He is now waging a full-blown war of expansion in Lebanon. The time is long overdue for Congress to listen to the American people and end U.S. military aid to the extremist Israeli government.

One week ago Tuesday, Trump took the world to the brink of nuclear war and the GOP Congressional leaders stayed on vacation and did nothing. If it happens again, they will do nothing. And MSM has already moved on from a story that would be in the news everyday if any Dem were President.

JD Vance just said: “Stopping funding for Ukraine is one of the things I’m proudest we’ve done in this administration.” What a disgusting statement. I was just in Kharkiv and saw the damage that Russian missiles and drones inflict. If Ukraine received more US interceptors, it could save more lives.

I don't know if young people these days understand that this kind of grotesque gutter racism was simply not acceptable in public... not that long ago!

i bet this goes crazy if you’re a dumbass

*rubs temples* It would legitimately be easier to just impeach him than do this. I do not understand it.

Turned on NBC. They talked about “President tipping a DoorDash driver $100”. This woman participated in GOP ads before playing other roles. There is no DoorDash deliveries to the Oval Office. Please exercise proper judgement when consuming news.

everyone involved in the dismantling of USAID should be forced to spend their lives watching graphic videos of what they have subjected people to in their callousness, clockwork orange style

This woman is a handpicked Trump supporter from Arkansas and she is less anti-trans than the median Atlantic columnist

I’m not sure it has broken through to the general public that the president is a megalomaniac crazy person. Hopefully posts like this help.

It also makes them sound more tough and macho than they actually are. We need something that clearly communicates that they literally had to invent a girl who would be willing to talk with them.

Los Angeles at the ICE Detention Center

These guys now literally doing what the national media accused Biden of doing during weeks of breathless nonstop TOTAL FAILURE coverage of 🇦🇫 in 2021

Congress could just expel both Eric Swalwell (D) and Tony Gonzales (R). They could, but they won’t. You do not hate Congress enough.

Again there's simply no comparison between the scope, scale, & tone of the JOE BIDEN EPICALLY AND INCOMPETENTLY FAILED IN AFGHANISTAN coverage of August/September 2021 & the "just the facts, very measured" reporting of what's going on with Iran & Trump now.

This is the actual populism (& popularism)

We fought and lost a war in Iran so that both the Iranians and the Russians could make far more money from oil—the Iranians from tolls, the Russians from higher prices and the end of sanctions. That isn’t just strategic defeat; it’s self-destructive foolishness at a level unknown to military history

I do find it ironic how we have to have all these delicate conversations about what to do about ICE when Trump and co. have executive fiated USAID, DOE, the Wilson Center, institute of peace, CFPB, and now the Forest service

the world was a better place back when these apolitical dipshits just kinda sat politics out instead of in 2024 when they all voted for Trump entirely based on vibes and then googled what tariffs are the day after the election

An avowed bad-faith republican can co-host a news show for a major network as an alleged journalist because the intent of corporate media is to support the republican party

The people who obsess over fertility rates are just perverts. Change my mind.

The President posted a video on his social media site of an actual murder and somehow none of the three major national news networks are leading with that story this morning.

Right,. aside from the emails between them, and the photographs of them together, and the address books with her info in them, the sworn statements of witnesses, and the affidavit from Epstein's assistant that he introduced her to Trump, there is not a shred of evidence supporting the allegations.

All this shit is a heat check by mainstream press to see if they can still pull off a “there’s equally bad guys on both sides, and here’s the guy we decided is just as bad as Nick Fuentes.” It’s: 1 - A way of avoiding the real problems: Trump, Vance and Netanyahu 2 - Probably not gonna work anymore

Imagine if these “reporters” ever followed up on a non-answer to a colleague’s question. Just once.

I'd really like to see leadership calling for impeachment and removal, regardless of whether they have the votes to get it done. Same way we called for marriage equality before we had the votes. A leader's job is to lead. If a genocidal threat isn't impeachable, then nothing is.

The core fact that is being omitted from the headlines, which has been omitted for TEN YEARS, but without which the news makes no sense, is that the president is not capable of doing the job! He doesn’t understand basic details, living almost entirely inside a self-congratulatory delusion.

It’s not being tested by either of those things. It’s being tested by the fact that the president agreed to it without reading it, promised a bunch of stuff he self-evidently couldn’t deliver, and agreed to abide to a bunch of terms that he self-evidently couldn’t tolerate.

Congress is completely useless at this point.

Trump went from making genocidal threats against Iran to becoming business partners with Iran in 24 hours. The guy is loonier than a shithouse rat.
