Too much beer

De gentrification

Except it’s citizens of USA in counties GOP won in double digits. They kill their own.

YES YOU SHOULD VOTE IN LOCAL ELECTIONS TOMORROW EVEN IF MAMDANI IS NOT ON THE BALLOT WHERE YOU LIVE

if there was a rich person with the will, you could build the most incredible news organization that has ever existed just from the wreckage of this year alone.

GOP takes hungry kids as hostages. Truly evil people.

She'll win tomorrow and that's a good thing. On most policy issues she's basically fine. But Democratic moderates really need to figure out that making voters hate their party is bad for the party and bad for them personally. It's just terrible strategy.

“There’s too many Americans on SNAP!”

Yes there are. Too many corporations refuse to pay a living wage.

Huge companyies are encouraging their employees to apply for SNAP because they don’t pay them enough to survive.

The government encourages this & then blames the poor.

You have to appreciate the clarity, at least.

The plan is "die quickly". And RFK, Jr. is spearheading that effort.

what a jerk.

Books are terrific. More detail on character and clearer plot arcs.

HOLY HELL; 🔥
JB #Pritzker just went nuclear on #Trump:

“Donald Trump & his bootlickers have torn down the Department of Education from the inside. Books are being banned. History is being erased. And Donald Trump and his cronies can f*** all the way off.”

you can’t focus poll this. and i know, i know, we don’t turn politicians into heroes. but this dude ran a campaign that’s brought so many folks together, and that’s not nothing.

My town in Western MA had about 2500-3000 people. last No Kings day there were a few hundred. I doubt we were counted other than people who signed up ahead of time. My guess is that across the country, including small towns, 7 million is a very low estimate.

I hope there’s a hell so everyone involved with this can burn in it—*especially* the lawyers.

“They were careless people …they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness.”

Donald Trump Would Rather Starve Children than Lower Health Care Costs A cruel and cynical strategy to try end the shutdown

Coffee prices are up 21%.

Ground beef prices up 13%.

Big reason why?

Trump’s chaotic tariffs on Brazil.

I voted to repeal these tariffs along with every Democrat and a few Republicans, and it PASSED the Senate.

All eyes now on House Republicans who are still on vacation.

Really heartening news. A full vote of the entire 9th circuit vacates the opinion reversing Immergut in Portland case.The entire court will now hear it. Immergut opinion is quite important b/c it applies deference but still finds can’t let Trump have his way when that is “untethered to the facts.“

Americans Are Getting a Look at Next Year’s ACA Premiums and Many Don’t Like It Many Affordable Care Act enrollees could pay hundreds of dollars more if they stick with their health plans.

Sticker shock for ACA recipients:

Clint and Cindy Kittrell, Oregon: $305/month --> $2,500/month.

Chad and Tara Smith, Idaho: $710/month --> $1,000/month.

Jessica Bunger, Florida: New premiums quadruple to $1,100/month. "I’ve never felt so powerless in my life"

Don’t Stream Fascism: Cancel Spotify

Spotify is now running ICE recruitment ads. We asked them to stop. They ignored us. Let's show them what we showed Disney. No Kings, No Collaborators, No Capitulators. indivisible.org/cancel-spotify

Scandal only if you are a Democrat. But GOP can literally mow down the White House and tear up the Constitution and it's no big deal.

Just want them to understand he’s a candidate who speaks to a large number of democratic socialist millennials who consider ourselves to be moral “centrists” in American society.
I refuse to believe being anti-genocide and pro-healthcare are “leftist” beliefs
even if political media say otherwise

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

Bravo!

do i think the institutional democratic party would do better with a more populist economic message? yes. but there is the problem of getting voters to *hear* it and to *believe* it and that is where i think attention should go.

Weird how you're affording Platner a level of magnanimity here that HRC, Biden and Harris never, ever got from the left punditsphere:
