Texas republicans are quickly moving to pass their new illegal gerrymandered congressional map in order to give them several more House seats and they’re threatening to arrest Texas Democrats for trying to leave the state to deny them a quorum. I hate these fascist assholes.

These days not having the authority to do something doesn't seem to hinder the GOP from doing it anyway.

SHOCKINGLY, THE situation vis-Γ -vis Jews is, in some ways, even worse than during the Holocaust. Yes, I know that sounds outrageous, but it’s not. During the Holocaust, it was dangerous – and more often than not, fatal – to be caught in any place under the control of the Nazi regime and its allies. But at the same time, there were many other, safe locales around the world, out of harm’s way, where Jews could live normal, or semi-normal lives.

Elon Musk is a symbol of American collapse in many ways, but one of the big ones is how for years he has constantly engaged in multi-billion-dollar securities and consumer fraud, and the "consequence" has been him making billions more, including from the federal government paying him directly.

My least favorite brand of doomerism is talking about how we can’t fix any of this and why offered solutions are unworkable and asserting that the electorate is fixed and unchangeable. β€œCan’t” is the enemy right now.

They want to go back to a time when college was only for wealthy White men. Because that will make the rest of the population easier to manipulate with misinformation and easier to force into unpaid care roles (women) or underpaid manual labor jobs that remain as more jobs get AI-ed (men).

I know some people associated with the local metalurigical coal mine who were fully radicalized when the Republicans helped police terrorize them during their 20 month strike, and local dems showed up to the strike kitchen. The weak labor laws part of your post IS THE REAL KEY 😩

As a member of the "east coast liberal elite" /s the only job loss worth caring about is blue collar jobs that don't require much formal education, perceived to be held primarily by white men ideally in places with weak labor protections

I feel so sorry for every international leader who has to stand next to Trump and make professional faces and not hit him.

Headline from Harvard Crimson: "Harvard President Garber Tells Faculty He Is Not Considering a $500 Million Deal With Trump."

Text of story:  Harvard prez Garber says report of a deal "was apparently leaked to the press by White House officials." NYT ran with it as a story.

Important details from this story:

1) Yet another news-break by student journalists (this time @theharvardcrimson.bsky.social) www.thecrimson.com/article/2025...

2) Harvard saying "see you in court," not "let's make a deal."

3) Per Garber, WH/MAGA leaked news of a "deal." NYT then ran with it.

Thank you! So tired if hearing people say she should have ran on issues that affected people's lives - SHE DID.
It seems that the GOP talking points even convinced some Dems she was running on something entirely different than what she actually was.

Anyone interested in adopting a bonded pair of sweet middle-aged kitties? Used to catsit for them and their owner has to unexpectedly move to Mexico due to a death in the family, and cannot take them. They're such sweeties I almost decided to take them, but my allergies just won't let me.
