When I was 15, I received the David Lynch award at film camp for making weird fucking movies. He was truly a hero and an inspiration to me.

No. Trump's first FCC chair was Ajit Pai. The new one is Brendan Carr.

The Republicans in your life chose this hell. Drag them down. Make it unpleasant. Don't be nice.

Young Democrats move to oust โ€˜ossifyingโ€™ party elders With figures such as Joe Biden, 82 and Nancy Pelosi, 84, still dominating headlines, younger members fear Gen Z are being put off

The next Dem presidential nominee must be a milennial. They cannot take my vote in 2028 for granted. Democrats need to shape up, get strong and fight.

Blue Dogs Propose New Task Force to Look at โ€˜Winner-Take-Allโ€™ Election System The bipartisan task force would investigate structural reforms like multimember districts and adding more House members in an effort to address growing polarization and distrust of Congress.

Today, Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez proposed a new task for to look at electoral reforms which could break up the two party system in Congress, expand the number of House districts, and move the House to a form of proportional representation.

It's a very, very good idea.

It means that unless we take them seriously and come up with an actionable plan, a lot of people are going to seriously suffer and this country is going to look very different. None of this sitting around shaking hands, smoothly transitioning, playing nice. Fuck all that.

You already said that. And you are wrong. It was highly consequential. We lost Row V. Wade. The president was granted immunity from prosecution. Federal regulation was completely hamstrung. This kind of gaslighting does us no good. We need to rise to meet the moment.

Dem establishment must be wholly, totally liquidated. 8 years of persistent, dangerous failure. 8 years of taking the high road and playing to the middle to no avail. They have to go, or the party will collapse.

They won't call it that. They'll tie their words in knots and come up with some long winded explanation. There is nothing to stop them from doing this. There is no accountability. Republicans hold *all* the cards. All of our rights are temporary and are at their whims.

Trump's Supreme Court has also made a number of rulings subverting or undermining established precedent, and has bypassed typical legal protocol in some cases to do so. There are no longer any rules. We will scream at them "you can't do that" all day. They don't give a shit.

Fears mongered in 2016 were realized. Trump's FCC eliminated net neutrality rules. In term 1 he picked technically qualified people for his cabinet that ended up mitigating it. This time he is picking loyalists with no regard for the rules
Carr authored a widely available chapter on his FCC plans

This is a lesson Trump has learned from, and all of his appointments reflect that.

what legal authority people do or do not have stopped mattering 8 years ago. I may have misunderstood the part about the licensing but Brendan Carr's chapter in project 2025 makes it clear they will stuff like this, it's hard to imagine any one really stopping them.

The hardest thing to stomach about the election is the unending frivolity in the response of his ostensible opposition. They have a specific, actionable series of plans.

We have platitudes, politeness, and melodrama.

Ok we don't have to put "Breaking" before every little news item y'all it. It makes us look so frivolous

This is 100% about the FCC pick. NBC is about to lose their broadcasting license if they don't change their tone

With that FCC pick, this sort of thing is about to get 1000 times worse. Not enough people talking about how consequential that will be. One consequence is that this is our last opportunity to really talk about it

Trump FCC pick is *by far* the most dangerous thing he's come up with yet. *This* is the death of the First Amendment.

BlueSky will look like Twitter in under a year. TV channels will praise Trump or lose their licenses.

AOC Blasts Rumored DNC Chair Contender: 'Disease' AOC slams potential DNC chair bid by Rahm Emanuel as a symptom of the Democrats' "disease" of prioritizing donors over workers.

Unbelievable. We must stop this nonsense, or we will never win. The DNC will straight up disband and dissolve on this path.
