This is woefully misguided

Hello @support.bsky.team why has
@sarahkendzior.bsky.social been suspended without explanation?????

He is a piece of shit for his ignorance

Sarah Kendzior • 4m I've been suspended from BlueSky. I don't know why. I wasn't online much today, and the last things I posted were excerpts from my substack newsletter articles. The suspension followed without explanation. It seems there's a crackdown. If you enjoy my work and want to make sure you can access it, subscribe! It's free - I would never paywall in times of peril — and voluntary paying subscribers keep it going. It would be great to have your support at this time. Thanks!

In a rare case of Substack notes usefulness, I just learned that Sarah Kendzior (author of They Knew and a brilliant writer) got bounced from Bluesky. What the hell? new @sarahkendzior.bsky.social

What?

“I’m so relieved that the only problem I cared about - me experiencing mild social discomfort - is now over”

my brother in Christ, do you want to bet

I am positively SHOCKED.

just saying if one of the 8 folding Dems wants they can use this as an excuse to change their mind and not give Trump exactly what he wants

Shutdown Deal Would Let Senators Sue Over Jack Smith Searches Senators whose phone records were sought by Special Counsel Jack Smith would gain authority to sue for millions in damages under a provision buried in the Senate-advanced deal to reopen the government...

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.

“These are not the people to defend the country against the manifold extreme threats to our institutions and way of life posed by Trump and MAGA”

“We need to recognize that we can’t have a different Democratic Party — Until we have different Democrats leading it”

The Situation: Assessing the Shutdown Not a good outcome—except perhaps politically.

"What is obvious, however, is that the Democrats who both voted to initiate the shutdown and then caved in the face of no material change of circumstance were either wrong 41 days ago or are wrong now."

@benjaminwittes.lawfaremedia.org assesses what the government shutdown has accomplished.

Tapper: Angus King said standing up to Donald Trump didn't work.

Sanders: Maybe Angus didn't notice the elections on Tuesday. I thought that they worked pretty well.

I recently had the opportunity to say to someone: "Do not speak to me like I am a small child with a lobotomy." - after weeks of hearing his condescending tone.

He is delusional. And wrong.

Just wait until people tell him they can't afford their healthcare premiums... Absurd statement from Kaine. Sorry you were uncomfortable, Tim. Sweet dreams.

I received this email about Democrats caving to end the shutdown from one of the SNAP recipients I spoke to:

This should get King expelled from the caucus

I doubt there will be a vote

COMPLICITY NOT COWARDICE. COMPLICITY.

This time.

Read every word & share with everyone you know. This is real life here in Chicago. Americans need to know this grotesque reality & stand with us.

Is this another set up, which will inform the next case?

The least most politically engaged people I know are texting me before 8am to say, “we won’t forget.”

So I don’t know man.

correct.

I'm legitimately confused about the play here. No person who now is going to go without coverage in the ACA is going to just blame the GOP. They will rightly blame the Democrats too. Dems won't get "points" for "fighting" if they cave. It makes little sense.

This was also my position in March. Any Democratic senator not calling for Schumer's ouster should be assumed to be complicit. Primary anyone who doesn't demand him gone.

So where is the fight, Chuck? Fighting how? Because you lead the Capitulation.

More than 10,000 flights delayed in worst day of disruptions since shutdown More than 2,800 flights were canceled Sunday, while Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy said the shutdown’s impact on airports is “only going to get worse.”

This and the airline industry lobbyists are what did it. Not Americans starving and paying twice as much for healthcare.

Even the senators who are retiring and think they won't have to face the wrath of furious Democratic voters should know that their last name is about to become so toxic that not even a goddamn nonprofit is going to want you on the board.
