Ayup. Checks out

Sigh. Can I live in a precedented time….just once? Please?

Seattle native here. And it’s always been FU Arod since 2000.

I don’t fault him for going for the money but the continual shitting on the city that gave him his start after he left was gratuitous and unnecessary. So him paling around with fascists checks out. What a loser.

It was assault and he should be thrown out of the Senate on his keister.

Not gonna share the video of Republican US Senator Tim Sheehy breaking a protesting Marine's hand, but you can find it on @charlotteclymer.bsky.social's timeline.

I'll just say that in a functional country, Sheehy would be expelled by the Senate.

Democratic Senators should publicly push for that.

Great read. We need to be prepared for Nov.

Archivist? The one who receives and processes the Electoral College votes that Trump tried to forge last time?

There was that Epstein text exchange with Bannon where he said "Trump doesn't respect anyone who agrees to his demands" and never has that been more apparent than every newspaper/university/law firm getting their shit double-owned by the guy they bent over for in the first place.

It would be cool to have a legislature that acted to defend its own constitutional prerogatives and, maybe as a treat, the interests of the people it represents too.

I just did. Had to write something beforehand because I’m just so tired and angry. Enough.

I remember when trying to forgive student loans was massive overreach of Presidential power.

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

I think the thing that offends me most about this regime is how obvious they are about how unimportant our consent to government is to anything they do

I'm just so fucking tired of this fucking nightmare hellscape of a society

This should be a front-page scandal.

democrats should internalize that this is what their colleagues think of them and act accordingly

Trump’s lies and deception are at such a clip it’s nearly impossible to keep track, but, the blatant, inciteful racist & xenophobic rhetoric against the Somali community is too dangerous & disgusting to be ignored. No one should sit in that chamber giving audience to such hatred.

People talk about this stuff in terms of how much it'll suck for gaming and I hate to inform you how many MRI machines, X-Rays, all sorts of other vital machinery are just a Windows IoT Edition PC in a beige plastic box with a big magnet/accelerator/whatever attached.

ICE using the same ruse that Ted Bundy used to kidnap people should tell you something.

Pure and meaningless corporate mumbo-jumbo. Read into it what you will, but what stands out to me is that Gallup wouldn't answer a very simple yes-or-no question on whether the Trump Administration complained to them about their findings

"Nothing tastes as good as getting your lick back"

That Marshawn Lynch commercial. *chef kiss*

Super Bowl Champs! 💚💙

With a fat bonus no less. What a ghoul.

We gotta come up with a better system than “everything rests on whether these twelve billionnaires are nice”

Graham objected to unanimous consent.

And he blocked the business of the Senate.

Any Senate Democrat could do this.

Little Lindsey wants in on Trump stripping this country for parts.

if bovino is out and conservatives are turning on noem then there is a real opportunity to demand that miller resign too.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Done, good sir.
