it's amazing how prevalent the idea is that a bigot who calmly says "no sir" and "yes ma'am" is more civil than a kindhearted person who tells nazis to fuck off

Journalists and reporters and commentators are being fired for accurately repeating, as in word for word, what a person is on video saying.
We have well and truly lost freedom of the press and freedom of speech.

The Republican Party is gonna go down in infamy. Which is small comfort. But richly deserved.

You gotta be some kind of monster to be proud of canceling Kermit and Stephen.

All I'm saying is if you have yet to see Superman, run don't walk. It's that good.

This @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social video is absolutely INCREDIBLE. The numbers he cites, the strategy and results they produced โ€” itโ€™s the future. When have you heard *any* campaign talk about this, ever? (Video split in 2 to fit in Blueskyโ€™s limits)

๐Ÿ‘‡๐ŸŽฏ Again, the casual ease with which weโ€™ve decided neither the law nor the constitution nor our intโ€™l treaty commitments (which are also part of US law) matter at all is indicative of how far weโ€™ve collapsed into authoritarianism & how not punishing things like Iran-Contra & Iraq 2003 got us here.

Why are any democrats (not counting Fetterman, he's an asshat and doesn't count) voting for ANYTHING brought to the floor by the fascist regime?
Every time it's like a knife to the back.

Thank goodness we have Jack Posobiec to inform us that grown men trading mean tweets is how "high agency males" communicate with each other <checks notes> directly. Because that's not what I would have called it.

But "due process" isn't important if you're innocent.

Yup. And IMHO, too bad Charlie. Booker still should have voted no. But, obviously, that's not the world we live in.

Diseases are spreading. The CDC isn't warning the public like it was months ago Some of the CDC's main channels for communicating urgent health information to the public have gone silent.

They really and truly want us dead.

Somebody please explain to me why ANY Democratic Senator would vote yes on ANY nomination brought by the fascist regime?
FOLKS. JUST. SAY. NO.

Letter published in Portland Press Herald:

Rep. Laurel Libby, R-Auburn, recently used my second-place finish in the 1,600-meter run, and that of my teammate in the 800-meter run, to malign Soren Stark-Chessa, the trans-identified athlete who finished first.

One of the reasons I chose to run cross-country and track is the community: Teammates cheering each other on, athletes from different schools coming together, and the fact that personal improvement is valued as much as, if not more than, the place we finish.

Last Friday, I ran the fastest 1,600-meter race I have ever run in middle school or high school track and earned varsity status by my schoolโ€™s standards. I am extremely proud of the effort I put into the race and the time that I achieved. The fact that someone else finished in front of me didnโ€™t diminish the happiness I felt after finishing that race. I donโ€™t feel like first place was taken from me. Instead, I feel like a happy day was turned ugly by a bully who is using children to make political points.

We are all just kids trying to make our way through high school. Participating in sports is the highlight of high school for some kids. No one was harmed by Sorenโ€™s participation in the girlsโ€™ track meet, but we are all harmed by the hateful rhetoric of bullies, like Rep. Libby, who want to take sports away from some kids just because of who they are.
