Trump killing our solar industry is made so much worse by the push for AI causing the first really big jump in demand for electricity. Just costing every American.

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

And good ol' Lindsey said no way. He's got salary and insurance, so he (and Mike Johnson and the rest of the gop congress) don't care how many people go hungry, get sick and die in the process of keeping the tax breaks for the richest guys.

Senate Republicans reject Democrat deal to reopen government The U.S. government shutdown has dragged on for 38 days because of a dispute over whether ACA tax credits should be included in a stop-gap funding bill.

While this proposal offers huge compromises to Republicans, it shows that Democrats are serious about ending the Trump Shutdown with a deal that addresses the needs of working families. 🧵

Has the Charlottesville area No Kings and Indivisible folks considered this location?

This Charlottesville, VA winery would be a great place for the Virginia No Kings and Indivisible folks to visit. Remember Tesla protests?

Another day, another grossly corrupt act.

Seriously? What will be next? tRUMP toilet paper?

His awfulness and selfishness know no bounds.

The timing would help GOP candidates next year. Americans have such short attention spans, all they will see is a tax cut gift from the orange-tan (pronounced or-ang-gu-tan) guy.

We're witnessing the culminating rot of shareholder capitalism in real time.

Some of the most powerful corporations in America have sided with an authoritarian regime in order to protect their short term profits — the fundamental rights of everyone else be damned.

Off topic, but:

Maybe they were listening to the Carly Simon song lyrics "Anticipation... ., its making me late"?

This is the most entertaining court case in the rumpian administration so far! Read the comments and enjoy!

I agree, best entertainment in months!

And yet another thing to Boycott. Sirius XM.

Speaking of well-defined terms, I have relatives who now refer to moderate positions as "radical left". I want to take a poster to Thanksgiving showing a graph that ranges from radical left to far right, with policy examples. Does bulwark have anything like that? It would make a great holiday game!

While we are waiting for it, your followers should watch your Politics Chat from earlier today. Mesmerizing. Epic. As the kids say: Fire 🔥

If anyone needed another reminder of how deeply unpopular the Trump-MAGA Republican agenda is, tonight was the night.

No matter how hard people try to convince us having empathy is wrong,

it is right.

No matter how hard people try to convince us that diversity is a weakness,

it is a strength.

No matter how hard people try to convince us that love is limited,

it is unlimited.

This will be fun to follow. You may need some bookie at some point.

NYC is going to have the world's biggest media-manufactured crime panic in history the second Mamdani is elected. They aren't even going to wait until he is inaugurated. Whether or not you like the guy, you need to start preparing now for the fire hose of disinformation that is about to activate.
