Clarence Thomas says the 14th Amendment should be read narrowly because it was written for formerly enslaved people. By that logic, the 2nd Amendment was written for muskets, not AR-15s. Funny how that kind of originalism only shows up when it's convenient.

I am so sad to see the Democratic Party in Colorado elect a young woman who wasn’t willing to say that setting a Jewish man on fire with a blow torch on the Boulder mall was anti-somatic. Yes Diana DeGette needed to go, but not to this person.

Waiting on the twisted logic of the “textualists” to justify amending the 14th amendment of the Constitution from the bench.

So at least 4 members of the Supreme Court don’t believe in the 14th Amendment of the constitution. They need to be impeached.

Roberts’ mission to turn the US into an oligarchy is almost complete. - Citizens United. - Gutting the VRA - the Slaughter decision The through line could not be clearer. Happy 250th Birthday America!

@wajali.bsky.social waiting for your comment on the pro Gaza trans activists attacked a gay Jewish state Senator running for Congress in CA when he agreed with them on the genocide, but apparently had the audacity to believe that Israel still has a right to exist. Is that antisemitism?

The real problem with granting POTUS unfeytered power over firing is it says America will now be a unstable democracy. Rather than day-to-day decisions being made via sustained expertise, we will have a see-saw of partnership. Happy Birthday America. For your present SCOTUS makes you Argentina.

SCOTUS again destroys our Constitution by giving POTUS the unfettered power of Kings. POTUS is not the CEO of a Corp., but rather is supposed to be one branch of a system of checks and balances. SCOTUS is ursuping it’s power to give more power to the Executive. We need impeachment proceedings.

I think Chris Murphy should be the Attorney General the next Democratic administration. I would love to see him go after these assholes.

There is not one radical idea here. This is all comment sense policy.

this is exactly where America is headed if we don’t the damage, don’t have massive wins in “26 and “28 and fundamentally reform government, pass slew of new laws, and prosecute Air member of the current administration at every level who has engaged in any level of corruption no matter how small.

As country after country gets fucked by Trump. It’s still astounding to me that this shit happens. Do they understand what we did to Ukraine? One of our allies.? everyone of these deals are gonna have to be scrutinized by the next justice department and the Trump crime family prosecuted.

Caturday

Trump literally the only person stupid enough to not understand what a US passport is for.

this guy is gonna be president. He has everything Obama had and more experience. The only question is can you do the standup at the correspondents dinner?

I learned an important lesson today. Before you spend $200 on new Bose earbuds, get some alcohol and a toothbrush and clean your AirPods. thought mine were toast now they sound fantastic again. Yes, I hate apple but I already have these suckers so I’d like to squeeze a little more life out of them.

Hey @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social I know you have a crush on @petebuttigieg.bsky.social and @ossoff.senate.gov but how about this guy for young, clean-cut, smart and oh so good communicator?

If I could say one sentence to cats and make them understand it, it would probably be "If you are going to puke, please do it on a hard surface."

MAGA hates America and every American that has actually worked hard to achieve something. What they love our Nepo babies taking on responsibilities that they are unqualified for. It makes ignorant, lazy, especially white people feel better about themselves.

In the same world JD Vance would have disqualified himself from any elected office and would resign in shame by saying that what Nixon did would only be a 12 hour new story implying that it wasn't that big a deal.

Give me a fucking break. This has nothing to do with another sexual revolution. This is just the patriarchy reasserting itself which has happened throughout history every time women have advanced their position in society. This woman is just a pathetic mouthpiece for the patriarchy.

The Far Left sucks but let’s be clear about what MAGA is doing. This is a real piece of direct mail from Republican candidate: That list IS fascism folks.

i’m out for my evening walk when I see a father pushing his kid in a stroller—maybe 4 or 5 years old (shouldn’t be in a stroller at that age) but the kid is staring at a phone screen. What the actual fuck is wrong with these parents in their 30s and 40s. They’re destroying their children’s minds.

Make no mistake fencing, armed guards, and security cameras are going to become standard all over the country if Trump has his way.

What I find hard to fathom is that as Trump systematically goes after the construction industry, the healthcare industry, restaurant industry, the hospitality industry, the corporate tools that run those businesses don’t publicly admonish him. They just try to stick their noses further up his ass.

and now we will see violent gun deaths radically increased in hawaii.

Alito and Roberts must be impeached for violating their oaths to the constitution which, according to their own words requires race neutrality.

For a bunch of dumb fucks. Of course there are more abortions now. Pregnancy can be extremely dangerous when you don’t have access to the full scope of reproductive care.. so if you can take a pill in the first 10 weeks and not be pregnant, it’s far safer than carrying to term.

Darializa Avila Chevalier it’s a rabid antisemite and has made some really incredibly stupid remarks. She’ll be gone after one term.

Israel’s right wing fascist lunatic government are literally driving antisemites to win congressional seats in the US. This is not going to go well for Israel, the Jews or Democrats in America.

Why are people celebrating reporters that she have been sharing this critical information with the public on an ongoing basis instead hoarding it so they can publish a book? The fourth state is broken. One of the many reasons are democracy is failing.

DEMs that think the winning response to this kind of insanity is to run Dem Socialists in every congressional district in America are literally enabling fascism in the US. Americans love charismatic candidates, whether Obama, Trump or Roosevelt. They aren’t smart enough to vote on policy.

The level of delusion about a “Progressive revolution” based on a few primary wins in New York City is truly frightening and dangerous. This is how DEMs lose, by buying into their own bullshit that most Americans don’t care about. To win in the US you have to appeal to the majority.

Anyone who voted in the DEM primary and their number one issue was Gaza is a fucking idiot and too stupid to vote. We are on the verge of losing democracy in the US and that’s their focus? This is why DEMs lose elections. They focus on narrow issues that most Americans don’t care about.

Democrats need to be very careful and not go the same route that the Republicans have gone which is to support extreme candidates in safe blue districts. It’s not gonna work out any better for us than it did for the GOP.

The GOP is engaged in what can only be described as organized crime at the federal level and this is the only crap that @politico.com can find on Gallego? That he’s using campaign funds for childcare and for his family to travel with him?

It’s a lovely cool morning here in Louisville, CO except every 10 minutes a prop plane flies over my house, destroying the peace and dumping lead in my neighborhood. I live 7 miles from Rocky Mountain Municipal Airport. (1/2)

Referring to the Reflecting Pool on the National Mall, Minnesota governor Tim Walz commented on X: “Found an imaginary problem, said only they could fix it, didn’t listen to experts, hired buddies who grifted millions, failed miserably,

So the guy who told us he made up the story about “they’re eating the cats and dogs“ says the negotiations are making progress. Anyone believe him? Anyone?

The richest man owns X. The second and third richest men control Google. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. The seventh richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

Send this woman $10 bucks! We need more like her in the Congress!

What I want to hear from a DEM POTUS candidate is we will increase taxes on the wealthiest Americans especially billionaires and with those funds we will secure SS & Medicare, reduce health insurance and medical costs for every American and shore up the IRS to ensure tax compliance by the top 10%

A picture is worth 1000 words and this one says 1000 words about Donald Trump.

@samsteindc.bsky.social of @thebulwark.com blew it out of the park this morning! Wonder if he’ll be invited back😍 Go Sam!!!!

If you watch the Obama Library, the World Cup, and the Knicks parade this afternoon -- and nothing else -- you can actually see the America we're supposed to be at age 250

The level of self-destructive insanity of Trump and his MAGA minions is astounding

Welp, Stephen Miller happens to LOVE the new Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.

And once again @hillaryclinton.bsky.social is correct. Imagine the world we would live in if she had been president? Did I agree with her on everything? No. Was she too much of a Warhawk for me? Yes. Even so her intelligence and genuine care rather humans for exceeds any member of the GOP.

Just returned from a trip to Berlin it’s an amazing city filled with history, culture, fantastic food, and wonderful people. But visiting the historical sites, including the Typographies of Terror museum it is impossible not to see the parallels between the Nazis and the Trump administration

Schatz: "If this deal is so good, why can't the public see it? ... there is a reason they are not publishing this deal, and it's because makes plain that this is one of the biggest foreign policy blunders in many generations"
