No problem here.

Nothing says “security” like screaming and pounding a brewski!

Exactly. Priorities, people!

Dear Americans,

I always thought when your government inevitably built concentration camps for you that you would care more. I thought you’d know that even his supporters would be in danger. I thought much too highly of you.

Love,

God

10/10, no notes.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

Remember: Everyone who says that athletes or artists should stay out of politics does not just fail to understand that in moments like these politics infuses every aspect of every life in our country--they are actually part of the problem. Silence is a position. Silence serves autocrats and thugs.

How very, very sad for you. 🙄

You do understand that your ideological purity is UTTERLY BESIDE THE POINT for the midterms, right? Sure, be am idealist, but be a *pragmatic* idealist.

(We should be so lucky as to have AOC for the nominee.)

Yes we can. And we can make sure that it happens.

This sort of doomerism is COMPLYING IN ADVANCE and you should be ashamed of yourself for it.

Southcom strikes which illegally kill people on boats in the Carribean that three months ago elicited shocked headlines in US news media are now being reported in low priority spaces buried deep in news outlet websites.

Normalisation of what are in effect US military death squads.

Why do we give guys like this a platform? Why should anyone actually care what they think?

History will likely teach the US had more to lose by abandoning our European allies than it ever had to gain from Donald Trump

We all have a right to be angry at GOP voters -- that almost goes without saying. But I still maintain a special reserve of vitriol for people who can't be bothered to vote at all. They, by themselves, could have prevented this. They, by themselves, can stop this whenever they want to.

We’ve been living inside a 5 alarm fire for a decade. Fighting fascism is the most important thing any of us will ever do.

But if you don’t allow yourself to carve out a few minutes a day for joy or simple pleasures you’re not gonna make it.

Independents are +12 on abolishing ICE

Must be nice there in your reality-free zone, bud.

Must be nice there in your reality-free zone, bud.

ICE keeps saying the people protesting it are being paid without any evidence, but we have receipts showing that the people *defending* ICE are absolutely being paid.

And yet we only hear lies about the former on cable news.

Noem clams murdering citizens is "following training." AWESOME.

Oh.

…that 'everyone' has said lots awful stuff on social media when they were younger.

But in the end, I found myself less aggressively anti-Planter. Guy has his finger on the pulse of angry voters. And he makes a decent case that some folks can change when they learn the error of their ways. (2/2)

So I heard David Remnick interview Graham Platner today on The New Yorker Radio Hour.

Remnick failed to ask a couple of important follow-ups: like, what exactly were the "community organizing" projects that are essentially Platner's political experience, and does Platner really believe… (1/2)

Mass deportations don’t protect working people—they weaken labor standards, silence organizing and empower bad employers.

An attack on immigrant workers is an attack on ALL workers. @jimmy-iupat.bsky.social

Why do people post this kind of AI slop? If you're going to post it, put a label on it! Don't try to pass it off as real, and especially as a specific species that it totally isn't.

You're promoting bullshit. STOP IT.
