Ah yes, the genius here advocating for violence against a regime itching for an excuse to use the insurrection act. Either you're a paid right wing agitator or a dunce. Let the adults handle this with evidence based resistance. Time to act has never passed. Read some Chenoweth

NEW: We’ve uncovered the first known example of taxpayer money flowing from DHS to businesses controlled by Kristi Noem’s allies and friends.

It’s part of a money trail that’s been shrouded in secrecyβ€”and involves $220 million, a mysterious Delaware LLC & a horse named Gill.

My courageous brother Matt, is fighting a tremendous health battle with end-stage heart failure and has been living with an LVAD while waiting for a heart transplant. Despite our family's best efforts, he needs additional support to get through this difficult time.

Unsurprising since the Trump regime is strangling small businesses while making exceptions and carve outs for the oligarchs and mega caps.

A mushroom cloud has developed over the Russian barracks in Novorossiysk. This is very likely missile fuel burning from the destroyed Russian air defense battery. It was likely a S-300/S-400 tasked to shield the city.

'Matt Gaetz Raped A Homeless Teenager' is what you mean.

A teenager with a homeless parent? What? The fuck? Did she have a home and not allow her parent to live in it? Ended up having sex with? What? Yeah clearly you guys been caping for pedos long enough and you understand the assignment here

@kenmartin.bsky.social This tone deaf crap is the reason most Americans don't see a difference between the parties (and one of the many reasons National Democratic Party gets no more of my family's money). Do better or step down for a real leader.

Exactly what I would expect, so many of them (founders, business owners) are successful because they are either too stupid to understand the rules or don't follow them and just don't get caught long enough to make a fuck ton of money.

She keeps using chat GPT to study and keeps failing, how stupid can you be not just to use it the first time, but to not realize you should change your approach after failing several times...

Opinion | Democrats Are Teaching Trump the Wrong Lesson

Excellent by @jamellebouie.net. "There are still too many Democrats whose instinct is to retreat to normalcy rather than face the conflict at hand." (Which also describes The Times; Bouie is the welcome exception.)
Gift.

So much power in extending awareness, decency, love and just some fun and joy.

So much power for all of us when we feel seen and feel like we belong.

May we share more of that.

Not to mention one of her hundreds (thousands?) of victims or their families. If the justice system fails them, that's a lot of candidates to serve up their own justice.

These senators already gave in, listen to their pathetic press conference. They wanted to fold day 1. You don't have to fall on a sword for them, they don't think about you at all. They have no fight left in them. And Capeheart is constantly wrong in his takes, I'd skip his punditry.

"Dr. Phil" too. They seemed harmless and were good tv, turns out they are horrible, broken, destructive charlatans who should've been muzzled instead of amplified.

Will Bunch nails what I have been trying to say about the Dems folding. It's not just the fight, but the spotlight on the fight, a light that just went out...

I don't think that is even true, a cardiothoracic surgeon. And a career riddled with poor research, retractions, and lack of evidence based care.

You don't get to gatekeep, their caving hurts more people in the long term. If you fold for the Republicans each time they threaten to hurt people you aren't the opposition, you are collaborators. They already cut snap and caid because of their weakness.

Literally secured nothing new, that's all status quo, just starved a bunch of people and fucked up lives so Trump can crow that they caved. A promised vote only in the Senate on ACA, weak sauce.

Some thoughts on the CR/minibus.

1 The Dems negotiating with Rs were not freelancing. They coordinated with Sen Schumer. A few were ready to give in on day one, others worked to maximize appropriations wins.

Those voting for the 'deal' are the ones furthest away from electoral consequences.

This was easy and I spoke to someone in 1 of two offices. Keep the pressure on.

What are they delivering? A pinky promise from liars who back out of all deals, do not negotiate in good faith, and continuously break the law and enable an autocrat? Listen to the hateful 8's words last night and on TV this morning. They have no idea what they are dealing with.

And lost last night, those wins are in spite of feckless leadership, not because of it. Those wins are because of the people, not old aristocrats like Schumer who couldn't even endorse his party's mayoral candidate. His CR cave funded the gestapo to terrorize Americans.

Yeah, caving worked so well for everyone in March. You pay off your bully with lunch money each week? These Vichy losers are COOKED

Agreed, he can work some backroom crap, pull some strategic levers by blocking noms and the like, but he doesn't need to be majority leader for that. Can't whip? Can't fight in public? Can't message? No longer leadership material.

@booker.senate.gov @kim.senate.gov please do not cave if there is no extension of ACA credits right now. Republicans cannot be trusted! After all this, you cannot give up now.
