It’s a shame, I would much prefer him as Majority Leader. Dont want to risk Schatz or Klobuchar

Tbf 10 free articles is generous, the nation gives me 3

Beware the Centrist Dweebs Trying to Ape Zohran Mamdani All over the country, young Democratic candidates are running seemingly Mamdani-style campaigns. But check the fine print.

For @thenation.com, I wrote about the trend of young Democratic candidates attempting to duplicate the aesthetics of the Zohran campaign, without the ideological foundation, economic populism, or authenticity that made it successful.

Charlie Kirk was a person. He might not have cared if I died, but if I don’t care that he died then I’ve already lost.

I believe in the dignity of all human beings and I want to live in a society that treats each of us as sacred and ensouled.

And hopefully Flanagan will be another upgrade

She’s done exactly one good thing in her life, and taking down Franken was it

On the subject of Lasher, does DSA have a good chance of winning his assembly seat?

What about Yvette Clarke? Ik her district is a tougher lift but any chance a WFP backed candidate could push her out?

Is there a way to read it without a UWMilwaukee account?

Mandate direct to consumer sales for cars, dealerships are a key part of Republican donor class

They’re gonna do the Byron brown strategy again? Hopefully this time it fails

I said this on the bird app, but I’d love Senator Rivera.

We’re gonna do it

We’re the ones winning electoral positions and actually implementing socialist policy, meaningfully improving people’s lives. That matters more than nebulous ideas like being “advanced revolutionary”

a refrain you’ll hear from sectarians before convention is that you should feel shame for being in DSA, that more “advanced” “revolutionary” socialists look down on us

but those folks don’t exist. DSA is the largest, most advanced socialist org in generations. you can’t make me ashamed of it

This doesn't make any of us safe. This doesn't help any of us. My heart breaks every single day when I see what is happening in Gaza. I feel helpless. I know many of you do too.

But when people enact violence in our name, it makes everyone less safe and it makes peace less likely.

Antisemitism breeds extremism, cruelty, and conspiracy theories. Equating Jewish people with Israel's far-right government inevitably leads to antisemitism.

It leads to innocent people getting hurt, more Jewish organizations being targeted, *and* Netanyahu using fear to gain more control.

I don't want to see a single person saying this was warranted by the carnage in Gaza, that this was for Palestinians.

I am a Palestinian person and I do not want senseless acts of terror committed in my name. I don't want Jewish organizations to need extra security because of fear of violence.

Unbelievably horrified by this attack in Boulder. We don’t know the full story of the attacker, but no matter what it is, let me be clear: Senseless, antisemitic attacks do not help Palestinians, Jews, or Israelis.

Committing terror attacks against people standing for hostages is disgusting.

Where is this screenshot from?

If they win, America dies. Not with a bang, but with the pathetic squeals of a generation that traded freedom for fascism, too blind to see they were paving their own road to ruin. And the worst part? They’ll still blame “the woke elites” when the boot comes down on their necks.

But don’t mistake them for harmless fools. They’re dangerous, precisely because they’re so pathetically eager to serve.

They don’t want democracy. Democracy is too messy for these little authoritarians. What they crave is dominance: the boot on the neck, as long as it’s their boot.

Yep.

Fascism doesn’t rise on the backs of thinkers or creators; it thrives on the rage of the mediocre, the desperate, the ones too scared or too stupid to imagine a world where they’re not in charge. All of those are the people here.

At risk of being hypocritical (I am also a mostly humorless filmmaker who wants to be subversive and clever) that sounds like a terrible time

God bless Tom hartmann

As someone who hasn’t seen it, is it get high and laugh with your friends bad or a don’t touch ever bad

So this beat Wicked for Best Musical

Back then, we had the Star Wars prequels, which say what you want about them but they had the tragic grandeur. What are we getting now?
