He looks like he’s enjoying pontificating on this topic. Is it his predictability or his pomposity that makes him so annoying?

Holy shit. This legit gave me chills.

Texas State Rep. Ann Johnson clapped back at GOP members amid Wednesday's redistricting vote.

WHITE WOMEN, this is the model. We have more power than others. We are the last to be silenced. We have a responsibility to SPEAK so others are HEARD.

The Democratic tent must be big enough to include Zohran Mamdani, Joe Walsh, and everyone in between. No purity tests, no quarter, no mercy. We must #VoteThemAllOut.

In 2018, the @talkingpointsmemo.com staff decided to unionize. The day we formally notified our EIC @joshtpm.bsky.social, we sat quietly at our cluster of desks, nervously waiting for his response.
