the biden administration didnt even want to say "republicans" in official press releases but these people have convinced themselves that democrats fought as hard as they could when they had power.

ive literally been saying this for over 25 years. yes. i want liberals/democrats/leftists to copy the effective playbook of the right and use it to help people. i dont care about precedent and being nice and protocol. just get it done. i dont care.

no, the courts have said "you can't" and they just do it anyways without any real consequence. you cant tell me they havent done anything in the last 17 months. thats just living in self delusion.

i understand all the legislative practicalities but honestly the biggest obstacle to democratic presidents doing stuff has been the democratic party. you can gnash teeth all you want but trump has shown us how much the dems just refused to do when they had power. and we should never accept it again

to repeat, toxic masculinity is dumb but it super fucking funny for the right to say trump is peak alpha male after they spent 8 years telling us that barack obama, the only president i can think of that could have seriously been a male model, was a weak beta male.

It's kind of funny watching all of right-wing media attack James Talarico's looks and appearance, claiming he's not masculine enough or whatever, when this is what their candidate looks like.

BREAKING: Powerline has withdrawn from the Freedom 250 Celebration.

embrace your inner george mcfly

when i was a kid in the 80s and 90s the right sold this idea that gay and lesbian couples werent normies. every lgbtq couple was the most extreme out there version of san francisco leather culture from an episode of real sex. it scared off dems for too long.

ITS NOT HARD JUST DO THE RIGHT THING FUCK FUCKITY FUCK FUCK JUST DO THE RIGHT THING AND DEFEND KIDS

how much is banana michael

trump, his kids, and his cabinet and his donors all give off the vibe of the rich kid villain from every 80s movie. theyre all trying to turn the cool neighborhood arcade into a coffee shop for yuppies

its just a side note in the story but the fox news hack that is going after "supergirl," kept pointing out that "superman" didnt do well in this case, underperformance is the #3 movie of 2025 and #76 on total box office www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...

ladies and gentlemen i regret to inform you fox news has determined that the new supergirl movie ... is... woke. Fox News insists on being the villain in another superhero’s story www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...

If you are nostalgic for the days when 50+ people had to approve a tweet, you are part of the problem. And it's time to take a seat.

trump does evil things because he's evil, not as a strategy to distract from other evil things he does because he's evil.

Prison and hell are too good for these mother fuckers ICE allows mother it deported without her toddler to return for his burial www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

I write these stories every day in an office surrounded by Superman art, sitting next to my dog named for Superman (my second!) it’s not just fandom, it’s a way of life

This is paranoid nonsense, for the record. It's largely describing someone who configured a website like a non-federal employee would and then doing a bunch of shadowy insinuation about why that might be.

just filed a story on Supergirl yes it is related to politics and media peak willis, lol

lol @brianstelter.bsky.social is a joke

The Trump administration’s struggles with selling the war in Iran now extend to pro-MAGA media outlets like Newsmax TV, where an anchor said the administration’s insistence on calling the current situation a ceasefire is a “farce.” Read more here: www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...

Stephen Miller to his wife: We now need to hire whom I told you to hire in the first place! The one, the only, Uncle Kracker.

It’s not a conundrum at all. I’m tired of excuses like this. So republicans like the bad guys. So what? How does that excuse democrats not going at them?

bilious Islamophobia is just totally normal and accepted in the Democratic Party at present. not all of them are like this but Schumer is

“Speaking like real people also means let them react in real time with real feeling—which is what happened here with Stephen Miller, Mangubat says.” I completely agree! This is what authenticity looks like! Not a performance but a genuine reaction.

subtle.

Trump’s illegal boat bombings did nothing to stop drug trafficking www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...

i think it is probably difficult to pull the “this guy isn’t manly” gambit when you look like someone aged up the boss baby

dems have been gifted with a rogues gallery that would put batman/spider-man/dick tracy to shame and they cant do shit with it.

Democrats self-sabotaged in 2024 when they stopped talking about these guys as the weird perverts and assholes that they are. Most of the country sees people like Stephen Miller and think they're gross monsters. They will always respond well when leaders/institutions that affirm their gut vibes.

booker is one of the most performative hashtag resist types on the dem side. he often sounds like someone frozen in amber from circa 2009 at peak "america is turning the page" obama frenzy.

years ago cnn hired erickson for commentary even after he called michelle obama a "marxist harpy"

Remember when you did that long winded filibuster which didn’t really stop anything and then you turned it into a book? Vanity project? Anyway, what do you propose doing about DT? Anything besides posting?

The Ken Paxton ads are stupid and juvenile and they are meant to rouse the ire of republicans who have been conditioned by over 30 years of Fox News to be triggered by the juvenile to go vote, while liberalism has been quiet. This is why the media matters and why our failure to fight there sucks.

BREAKING: Every single version of Alvin and the Chipmunks have also withdrawn from the Freedom 259 celebration.

It's genuinely funny that establishment Dems still try to pull this ID politics nonsense to support the candidates they want.

Amazing.

Trump has weaponized DOJ to go after dissent and Biden’s DOJ wouldn’t even go after the right for parking tickets

When the SpaceX ipo eventually uncovers fraud and scamming you will have to thank in part the democrats who provided zero scrutiny of the company, a major government contractor, when they had majorities in congress.

we could have a safety net but that would be communism -

This is the same headline they’ve run every day. Just say, Trump is bullshitting us again

I know I keep going back to this but this is also why getting owned on Twitter drives them ferally insane. Twitter is “theirs—“ they literally spent billions to make it their cultural safe space where “comedy is legal” and they win every argument and some well-adjusted minority woman ruined it

My worst political take was believing that after 8 years of Bush II fucking up everything that Democrats and liberals in general would understand the need for total political combat. Instead the last 20+ years have seen literally no improvements.

Free advice for left writers: get to the fucking point quicker. It’s like everyone is trying to a Rachel Maddow stemwinder (a style I personally dislike)

I’m tired of waking up every morning to a country under assault and nobody doing anything to stop it

In 2009 and 2021 Democrats chose reconciliation. It was a miserable failure. The only path forward is vengeance and retribution.
