COLLINS: So you're telling me you're willing to vote no every time?

Stephen Colbert is a profoundly good and deeply talented man with a great staff and an excellent show. They all deserve better.

Stephen Colbert should run for the 2028 Democratic Presidential nomination. No bullshit.

Ignore people farming for clicks by claiming Dems were wrong to keep the filibuster. We would be in the same exact position today and the senate GOP would also be passing bills to restrict abortion, voting, and more.

Our roadmap to a Democratic majority: We need to say that the common thread is all these leaders (whether socialist, centrist, ex-GOP) want to help people and make their lives better. We need a big tent united around this common cause. I'm sick of infighting. Our differences are minimal.

We are against blatant corruption and we believe the US government is obligated to protect citizens from bad actors and make peoples' lives better. That's what will make this country great.

They do this cause they know the bill is terrible for their states & districts. So they post a tweet opposing it, then fold right after. That way, come election time, they can claim they β€œfought it.”

99% of the time, that fight was complete BS.

The rise of people like Lander and Walz, whose ideologies don't exactly match mine but have the exact right combination of "love thy neighbor" and "fuck you, asshole" attitudes, is massive positive for people who care about left of center politics

Are you Gen X or Millennial? Well congratulations because the BBB will drain you and your family of all your assets with the slashes to Medicare and Medicaid funding so you will be selling off your family assets and retirement for end of life and retirement care.

All so PE can own everything

Yeah they just have an AI programmed to suppress any speech that doesn't support their tech oligarch dreams.

The wildest part about us getting banned on instagram and threads and all meta platforms without warning or explanation is not even being able to get in touch with a human being about it.

Dystopian, Orwellian shit.

We will never have a majority large enough to defeat MAGA if we continue shrinking our tent with purity tests.

I saw that @thetnholler.bsky.social was banned on Meta platforms with no reason given. This happened to me on June 15 after a month of getting high engagement for pro-Democratic Party and anti-MAGA posts from my personal account (not even verified). Meta is anti-free speech.

Look how much my engagement dropped because I was posting some fire stuff against the Trump admin and MAGA. They are silencing voices on Threads and Meta platforms.

They restricted my profile and
Shadow banned me as of 6/18 just for reposting a lot of content we are aligned on, shame on Threads and Meta.

I'm going to try and communicate with my Republican colleagues in a new way.

It's sad to think about how many people I know went off the deep end due to either MAGA, COVID, MAHA, or 10/7. The common thread is social media.

I can't believe we went from the Obama Phone conspiracy in 2009 to a literal Trump gold phone grift for $47.50 a month in 2025....
