Charlie Brown was smarter than senate leadership

Fight yes or fight no. There is no try.

Americans have been betrayed by the Senate and now hundreds of thousands of Americans will go without medical insurance.

And some of them will die.

Venice Bakery is remembering those that have died in ICE custody this year by adding them to their community altar for Dia de Los Muertos.

Imagine thinking people are this gullible and imagine being right.

Griswold (birth control decision) will be next which will allow states to regulate/ban birth control

I'm fine with Mothra at this point.

I like how the news will be like “while the President claiming Portland was ruled by a giant skeleton named Mr Nibbles is not strictly true, it does speak to the anxiety of many Americans”

Legacy newspapers: "Print media is dying, and the public will suffer for it."

Also legacy newspapers: "We can't offend the government with information and framing that helps the public."

Coates’s line in his discussion with Klein that “sometimes we lose” really stuck with me.

Klein was talking electoral calculations. Coates was talking about those working for true liberation and equality.

To me, this is so much of the difference. Where are we actually trying to go? And how?

Elizabeth Jacobs, PhD @elizabethjacobs.bsky.social I'm an epidemiologist. Sewage systems are sexy. Dosco Jones @doscojones.bsky.social I'm an engineer. Sewage systems are sexy.

I’m a sewage system. I also have a great personality.

I had a long island ice tea. So I started answering fundraising texts. Fuck Schumer especially if he capitulates on the shutdown

It certainly appears the United States murdered an innocent fisherman who was a husband and father to four children, claimed he was a "narco-terrorist," posted a video of the execution, and then made jokes about it

YouTube video by Sky News Black Lives Matter: Federal agents confront protesters in Portland

This is what the feds are hoping for. youtu.be/yYx2m13MqJs?...

They're hoping Portland will fight and give them an excuse to kill.

I hope Comey thinks about HRC's email servers and his role in tanking her campaign in 2016 every minute the rest of his life.

If I had the time I'd follow him chanting "But her emails"

Honest to God, Tom Homan for sale for $50k and were surprised?

HO is IN his name

Canceling Jimmy Kimmel show is not about Charlie Kirk, just like going after universities was not about antisemitism and occupying DC was not about fighting crime.

cato institute analysis of murders by political ideology since 1975, excluding 9/11

Politically Motivated Violence Is Rare in the United States The government can and should vigorously pursue justice for Kirk and all the others murdered by politically motivated terrorists, but it can and should do so without new political witch hunts, expande...

Even the well known leftist think tank (/s)Cato Institute disagrees with Vance.

The professor has been fired and senior administrators removed from their post. No mention of this in the New York Times, The Free Press, The Atlantic or other outlets who drove the campus speech moral panic.

I'm past calling this stuff insane or unhinged.

This is what fascists do when they want to destroy freedom. This is a good choice if that's the outcome they desire. Our friends and family members who love Trump want this too & they're just bad (not crazy)

Trump wasn't seen yesterday by the White House press pool. He wasn't seen today. He has no public events scheduled this weekend. Trump hasn't been seen in public since Weds, and it's unclear if he'll be seen in public until Tues.

That's pretty damn weird.

Thou shalt not complain that Gavin Newsom’s imitation posts are “childish” when you’ve never had any criticism for Donald’s actual insane posts.

My reporting has come to the attention of Ghislaine Maxwell’s attorney. Here’s the response I provided to the @thedailybeast.bsky.social

Without calling for blue state secession, I will say this:

I think we either find a way to get rid of the Electoral College and the other baked in aspects of our constitutional system that give rabid white Christians disproportionate power, or the country will inevitably split at some point

Remember they don't want us talking about things like the #EpsteinFiles or that #Blackstone CEO was whacked. (The idea that it was a mistake and the NFL was the 'real' target is absurd.) And this time there isn't a live shooter to tell the story.

Keep talking about these things so we don't forget

I still think Ms. Maxwell is at high risk of window cancer or the like. The stakes are too high for the people involved

Cracking the crown is progress. Life isn't a Lifetime movie where stuff is quickly solved. Shaving off a percent here and there is progress.

They'll say stuff and most might believe it but others won't. That's how we build a movement. Bit by bit and step by step.
