What the

A House panel releases ethics report on Matt Gaetz's alleged sexual misconduct and drug use, which he has fiercely denied. The move is a reversal for the committee, which deadlocked on the issue last month.

Remember when the Washington Post and NBC treated this guy as a normal, mainstream, non-MAGA conservative? Most of the right’s most extreme people have been enabled and amplified by a ridiculously credulous ‘liberal’ media machine. Sadly.

Imagine if Biden in 2020 had, instead of Garland, nominated a guy accused by a House panel of doing illegal drugs & paying underage girls for sex. Just imagine the response - including from ‘liberal’ media! But it’s Trump, so… any response? Nah. He’ll face no political costs for nominating Gaetz.

Public praise for a killer is an escalation of a troubling trend: bloodlust for destruction & retribution. Americans are rejecting leaders who propose solutions for problems, in favor of antiheroes who just want to burn everything down—figuratively or literally www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Trump expresses support for longshoremen threatening to strike over automation: "I’ve studied automation, and know just about everything there is to know about it. The amount of money saved is nowhere near the distress, hurt, and harm it causes for American Workers, in this case, our Longshoremen."

Pete Hegseth was asked to comment on a CNN report from today about his past comments from the past against gay people serving in the U.S. military. His response: “I don’t feel the need to respond to CNN.” Why can’t he answer a simple question?

Even though I think its right for the left to do a post-mortem on the election, I think the left holding itself accountable is giving the left a bad look as if we are completely defeated. Its the right thing to do, but optically I do think its making us look weak compared to the right.

The Democrats need their 2028 candidate to be well spoken, confident and knows the issues. I think they should collaborate with left wing debaters to prepare for the Presidential debates, Town Halls and challenging interviews. Preparing for debate allows the candidate know the counter-arguments

Right Wingers new tag should be 'SNOWFLAKES'....They act so tough, so thick skinned and confident but they get so triggered and their positions are so fragile that they CRUMBLE as soon as they are met with facts and logic. Theres a reason why they love living in an echo chamber #RIGHTWINGSNOWFLAKES

Honestly its so sad seeing how DELUSIONAL everyone on twitter is. I do feel like more and more popular media personalities keep downplaying Trump and the right for whatever reason. The amount of disinformation on twitter is insane

Elons tweet smells like ketamine

If you needed even MORE of a reason to switch to Bluesky, China is "troubled" by the fact that they've invested so much time on Twitter buying ads, bots, and influencers... only to see the people they're seeking to manipulate (us) flee the site. www.semafor.com/article/11/2...

Joe Rogan saying "fuck you" to Zelensky is worrying. Its worrying how republicans are so pro Russia. Its worrying how they dont see Putin as a dictator wanting to illegally take another country's territory for more power and dominance in the world. Russia is invading the US more than Ukraine.

The thing about Twitter versus Bluesky is that the right needs liberals on Twitter to make it feel worthwhile, whereas the left doesn’t need conservatives on Bluesky to make it feel worthwhile.
