Talarico: I was required by law to report any indication there was abuse at home, and I would hope that the top law enforcement official in Texas would be held to the same standard as a middle school teacher. Ken Paxton had the opportunity to protect a child, but instead he protected a predator

I’ve said this before, but I’m going to say it again because I think it matters: It is not “copium” to say Harris ran a good campaign. If anything, it is “copium” to say she didn’t. Because it’s comforting to think if we just run a better campaign, in a few easy ways, we’ll win.

Whether you choose to agree or disagree with what I say, that's on you. I'm not here to assuage your guilt or condone your bullshit. If you don't like what I have to say, feel free to fill out this form before you decide to add me to one of your childish lists. You will be blocked anyway.

We're nearing the 10 year anniversary of Bernie Sanders responding to his delegates starting a near riot at the Nevada Democratic Party state convention by....blaming the DNC for the behavior of his supporters. www.politico.com/story/2016/0...

So the President’s son in law, a special envoy and the VP who has no diplomatic or national security experience went to a complex and sensitive negotiation to prevent WW3 and the Sec of State and Prez went to a professional wresting match & the team gave up after one day? Girl we’re in danger…

So CodePink went to Cuba to do “humanitarian aid” but actually just threw a party that might have knocked out whatever power the island had left lol

🚨 Flipping the House blue is an ABSOLUTE MUST this year. Donate today. #Blue26 --"TBD" donations go to the eventual Dem nominee. --Nothing donated via this page goes to me. --You can opt out of sharing your phone/email w/the campaigns! secure.actblue.com/donate/house...

Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of our democracy. But right now, they’re under attack. Several Republican-controlled states have redrawn their congressional maps to give themselves an unfair advantage in the midterm elections.

THIS.

I’m not calling for the propaganda leveled at democrats-especially Black democratic candidates- “THEY TAKE CORPORATE MONEY!” Shut up. You do too. Corporate money is legal thanks to republicans and Black politicians get the least but the most blowback.. from the usual clowns on the left.

Guess what? If you don't donate, they'll take corporate money. Cut your noses off.

And those of you who agree with the "they both suck" narrative? You are dupes, morons, and shitheads. Suck all the donkey dicks.

We got Virginia back! It was a dark period with Glenn Youngkin, but we are back! Now, if we can make that happen across the US, anything is possible. Keep watching Virginia and then make sure to vote accordingly in your state

Nancy shared this--and she is right. Listen to the WHOLE recording. Don't EVER fall for cherry-picked, engagement farming BS (unless you enjoy being ignorant and pointlessly angry) www.youtube.com/watch?v=td_E...

Walz: "We have a federal system that we're all in it together, we help other states when they need it, but we have a situation where they're trying to divide us & provide specific aid to states that they like at the moment, which is absolutely unconscionable... either that or give us our money back"

Walz: "They are paying contractors to pay down the East Wing but they're not putting money into the food bank. So if there's a sense of frustration in America, it's very real ... when the White House press secretary said their top priority is the ballroom, we could not disagree more."

Today at the Bar, by Trevor LaFauci. establishmentbar.blogspot.com/2025/10/when...

This is the appropriate response to people who blame Democrats for where we are right now:

Letitia James has now also filed a Motion to Dismiss the federal case against her based on the improper appointment of Lindsey Halligan, as well as a Motion to Enforce rules regarding government disclosure based on Halligan's text exchange with @annabower.bsky.social

Nebraska: Expanded Edition dropped today! Squee!! youtu.be/ULcRPp4KGNw?...

Updating my LEGO White House

Voters should pick their representatives, not the other way around. Glad to get the chance to talk to some of the volunteers and organizers doing the hard work to make sure Prop 50 passes. This vote will have critical implications, not just for California, but for our entire country.

The same people who lost their minds over renovations to Cracker Barrel are totally fine with the White House getting bulldozed

Graham Platner tells Tommy Vietor that while his response to many of his old Reddit posts was “oh god,” he stands behind his question about “why Black people don’t tip” because he was legitimately curious. And, of course he has a Black friend who is also a bartender. What. The. Fuck.

On our way to #NoKings

Honestly time to stop the oh it won’t be so bad, let’s wait and see, he doesn’t mean it, courts will prevail, guard rails will hold, we can ride this out again approach. Once he has declared martial law and set his released pardoned January 6 mob loose along with MAGA nuts it’s game, set + match!

It’s also interesting that Klein mentions the reichstag fire because what’s going on feels a lot more like the canonizing response to the murder of Horst Wessel, a response that Klein is now participating in with this reprehensible piece. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horst_W...

Charlie Kirk may have been good at showing up at college campuses and talking to anyone who would listen etc. But the org he headed built a database of professors to target with harassment campaigns in the hopes of drumming them out of academia. Is that practicing politics the right way?

Also, sorry, too worked up and my first cup of coffee just hit… Kirk was part of the effort to overthrow the elected government of the United States on January 6th! In what sense was that “practicing politics the right way”????

Like…my parents have no fucking idea who Charlie Kirk is. What they’re going to get from the Times coverage is that he was a compelling speaker and gifted organizer who was martyred for free speech.

I’m also fairly sure Klein didn’t write anything like this after the assassination of multiple Dem politicians in Minnesota. I’m not saying this as a gotcha, but rather the show the implicit assumption of our discourse, which is that Right Wing violence is to be expected, and thus tacitly accepted.

I’ve recently learned about Murc’s Law and it’s elegant explanation for why our political press fails us daily. whereofonecanspeak.com/2023/03/02/y...

Couldn’t have said it better myself…

Save the CDC from Dr. Killgood RFK Jr.

Hey everyone...LOOK OVER HERE! It's Lt. Col. Bone Spurs declaring war on an American city!!! Does his rough tough cream-puff cosplay make you forget about the EPSTEIN survivors, their lifetime of trauma & their courage to speak the truth in public? Yeah, me neither. #ReleaseTheEPSTEINFilesASAP

Florida: the government shouldn’t force vaccines on people. Also Florida: the government should make decisions about women’s bodies.

Yes, please stop.

The courage of our brave CAL FIRE firefighters and partners working across the state to protect communities impacted by wildfires is the spirit that defines the best of California. At the end of the day, we're many parts, but one body.

“Just one more thing. You said the Epstein files were a Democratic hoax—cooked up by Obama, Hillary, and Biden. But here’s the part I can’t figure out: you were a confidential FBI informant on the Epstein case. So tell me, how exactly did the Democrats get you to spy on a hoax?”

Blaming Dems is all some folks know how to do.

With Washington DC under occupation.. Where are: Pro Palestine folk who protested VP Harris for 107 days? FBA? ADOS? DSA? Nowhere to be seen because they’re all ops designed to harm democrats and help republicans..

California is proposing to hold a special election on November 4th to give voters the power to fight back against Donald Trump’s tyranny. We will not sit back while Trump and his Republican lapdogs in Texas attempt to rig the next election.
