This Black Friday weekend we are going to send a message to corporations that enable Trump and the MAGA agenda: #WeAintBuyingIt

hey, so can we talk about what James Harden is doing or what

Before women, the workplace was perfect. It was full of trees. There was no need to labor with your hands. You didn’t have to wear pants, or any form of clothes. Every kind of animal was there. Hmm I may be thinking of something else women supposedly ruined www.theatlantic.com/newsletters/...

This is something new & interesting in the drecky polling space - worth reading

This story was produced as a collaboration between @pablo.show and @motherjones.com. Watch the Pablo Torre Finds Out episode here.

An incident in a locker room has always been key to Riley Gaines’ anti-trans fame. But @msjpauly.bsky.social spoke to swimmers who were present at the same 2022 meet. They shared a very different narrative.

Quietly disconnecting the entire internet. Time to shut the whole thing down.

Listen…If y’all want to talk honesty, then let’s be honest about all of it. The promises, the hypocrisy, the receipts. Because what you campaigned on and what you’re doing? Two very different things.

Reuters is helping out Trump's immigration terror campaign.

Trump should release all of the Epstein files: every person and every document in the files.

I refuse to bend the knee to Donald Trump and his slanderous lies.

I will do everything in my power going forward to advocate for the release of the files, to get justice for Epstein’s victims, and to promote the values of truth our great country was founded on.

Whether it's garbage NYT left-bait or right wing flood-the-zone nonsense that we all pile on to, we are letting the wrong people set our overall information agenda in a very deep and fundamental way. And it's a very serious mistake.

Punishing conditions, alarmingly inadequate medical care, failure to accommodate people with disabilities, and restricted access to counsel: The conditions at the largest ICE detention facility in California blatantly violate the law. Read more: www.keker.com/news/immigra...

“The American people should ask themselves just what the president meant when he concluded every issue of Time Pedophiles with the motto ‘Three cheers for molestation, and may every historical era be another wonderful secret!’”

We're officially live. It's incredibly important to have a real record of how our public servants are behaving and this database will be a powerful tool for researchers, reporters, and ordinary Americans.

Buried inside the deal to reopen government is a provision that would give Senators private right of action to sue for millions in damages over their phone records being analyzed by Jack Smith's team. news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law-week/...

After yesterday’s surrender, we’re launching the largest Democratic primary program that we’ve ever run. We will not back any Senate primary candidate unless they call for Schumer to step down as Minority Leader. If you’re as pissed as we are, join this campaign to rebuild the Democratic Party. 👇

The people showed up in the streets for "No Kings." They did their part. The people showed up at the polls on Tuesday. They did their part. 8 Democrats in the Senate surrendered last night. They did not do their part.

This is a bad deal, and the old way of doing things is clearly not working. We need new leaders in the Senate.

New for @theathletic.com - Atlanta's "Breakfast Club" breakout game underscores the larger debate about Trae Young's future, where every game without him is a mini-referendum on it. www.nytimes.com/athletic/679...

What is the point of a political party that will not fight for the people?

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person. The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person. People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives. And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Democrats have to stop bailing out Republicans from facing the consequences of their own policies. And yeah, that means they have to stop sparing voters from experiencing what GOP government truly means. Every time Dems step in, it only emboldens the GOP & they make it even worse the next time.

I'm hearing the same thing. Dems are nearing a surrender. I'm shocked. Largest protest in history + best election night in years + polling showing we're kicking their ass in public opinion. And now Dems may cave. It ain't over til it's over, so please do call if you've got a Dem senator.

I saw the Washington Post editorial on redistricting today and this is my official response.

I've been taking my drinks neat, T. Because fuck ICE.

Speaker Johnson kicked me out of his office. Here's why.

@jscros.bsky.social This is great stuff, loved this piece Zohran Mamdani won. I spent the night with the people angriest about it. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Shut the fuck up about Mamdani bein' a communionist or a socialite or whatever. I don't wanna hear it no more. He's the boss now.

We’re in Day 36 of the government shutdown and ICE has said they are not taking visits from Members of Congress. My constituent, Yari, is sick with leukemia and we are not getting answers. After some insisting, I was let in and I was with her for two hours. Full recap soon.

this looks like a trick daffy duck would put up to get bugs bunny into "the oval office"

Great read. Let's treasure this moment.

Ok, being told this did not happen. Campaign saying you can't say that sort of thing because of woke, which has returned

Love how there's a notionally fixed axis of left - right here that has no larger cultural context, and that, once again, only the agency of dem Dems can be given causality Amazing stuff - from a paid political talker/writer. Thanks for giving my inner blowhard this needed assurance

Mike Johnson had the f*cking nerve to say that Democrats were not in D.C. today to do the work of the American people. Seriously?? The only reason Rs are in town is to go to a f*cking WH Halloween party. They are telling the American people, "Let them eat candy." For tomorrow, there will be nothing.

This is your reminder that millions of Americans will lose food benefits this weekend because Trump is refusing to tap his emergency fund. Kids will go to school hungry because of this cruelty.

In short, the ANES data shows: 📉 Social media use is shrinking 💥 Twitter/X posting has moved ~50 points to the right 🧩 Platforms are splintering 🔊 Fewer people are talking — but those still talking are more politically extreme

Is social media dying? How much has Twitter changed as it became X? Which party now dominates the conversation? Using nationally representative ANES data from 2020 & 2024, I map how the U.S. social media landscape has transformed. Here are the key take-aways 🧵 arxiv.org/abs/2510.25417

It pains me to say it #nba & #nbasky but the Police are, in fact, still looking for #Shaq's stolen Range Rover. Thoughts & Prayers H/t @espn.com

"Pain dials"

“Tell your children who the cowards were.”

Trump screws his voters again: He just denied disaster aid to Maryland (while giving it to red states). But I took a look and it turns out the suffering Maryland counties are in Appalachia and backed him by 40 and 54 points. On the pod, @stevebenen.com and I discuss: newrepublic.com/article/2022...

How can we live without AI LLM assisted search when it can predict the future, based on a present that doesn't exist on this timeline: #nba #clippers

It's hard to overstate how fully engaged Chicago and the surrounding suburbs are in this ICE madness. There are neighborhood watch alerts, spontaneous crowds gathering outside schools at pick up & drop off plus madly blowing whistles and honking car horns, this city is fighting back and hard.

Might be the most vacuous person of the last decade. An empty vessel for lobbyist cash.

Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.
