my offer to america: we bring woke back

Pulitzer material

@jaycatt7 tweeted: “My roommate described Republicans as the mass shooter and Democrats as Uvalde cops, and I can't get it out of my head”

I hate how accurate this feels right now🫣

Somewhere, Jeff Bezos is angrily clicking “track shipment” to see what happened to his new editorial page.

I’m not going to the Joint Address. I will be live posting and chatting with you all here instead. Then going on IG Live after.

he thinks he’s king. he issues executive orders (royal decrees) and the entire society is expected to obey

Walk out during saying "NO KINGS" and give an all caucus press conference on the steps of the capital in front of fired federal workers and people affected by the funding cuts.

In the words of my man Thomas Paine, you know why they call it nobility — no-ability.

It's like they had a meeting was like "who wants to be the administrator" and she wasn't there so she got the action item of "now you can talk with all the lawyers"

It would be a shame if people spammed this email address with nonsense as well.

Oversight agency finds Trump’s federal worker firings unlawful, asks for some employees to be reinstated The findings could have sweeping impacts for the tens of thousands of recently dismissed workers.

Gee I wonder why Trump might be so hot to fire them

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source.

Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

So my preferred escape atm is watching all of Gilmore Girls with my 10yo but I’m finding it v distracting to wonder how much of Stars Hollow would be red pilled by now (a lot I think!)

Here’s an idea: Hochul removes Adams and replaces him with someone who will tell the Secret Service that the next time Trump comes to Manhattan the Secret Service can block the streets themselves without the help of the NYPD

It’s very funny to me when people write “would Canada and Greenland get statehood?” content from DC, which has the population of New Brunswick and no statehood.

Republicans have for years attacked federal workers as the enemy, a left wing woke army in their delusional Fox News dreams. I’m originally from the DC region. These people are our friends and neighbors, normie moms and dads who keep this country running. And we should stand up for them.

Polio survivor Mitch McConnell voted against RFK Jr. today because he knows he’ll harm public health. He had a chance to stop all this after January 6th and convict Trump in the Senate but was too big of a coward. He gets no credit for his “courage” today.

Yes, key point here is that cosmopolitan liberalism is demanding. It requires us to continually expand outward the sphere of people who merit our concern. As I tried to argue in the piece, this is one thing that makes it attractive and worth aspiring to, and better than the Vance/MAGA worldview:

That only makes it more of a challenge.

in the runup to the Ukraine war, US conservatives were jacking themselves off to footage of Russian VDV guys doing hand to hand combat. Then 90% of those guys were wiped out in the first day of the war because it turns out hand to hand combat isn't very important if they shoot your helicopter down

No small feat! 🤬

We got a message from the university to remove any use of the "DEI", "diversity", "equity", or "inclusion" from all public-facing documents. They said that even "biodiversity" is being flagged by the federal government. We live in the dumbest timeline.

💪 We’ve got strength in numbers!
