Senator Bernie Sanders @sanders.senate.... 35s Mr. President. Stop breaking the law. The shutdown does not give you the right to fire thousands of hard working federal employees. Instead of giving huge tax breaks to your billionaire friends, show some respect for the struggling working families of our country. 4 34 ...

Imagine if Chuck Schumer posted this

Got a buddy who's fam are all Mississippi folk and back in the day were sharecroppers at that. Real Sinners shit.

Right. It's not innate at all but it IS taught.

One way or another we get taught about this shit and in family stories a lot of the time.

Like, Ruby Bridges is still around! The history ain't history. It's some folks' childhood.

I cant stress enough how much harder it is to get a law repealed than to make sure it never gets passed at all

LP; if you are overwhelmed by trying to find the right words to tell your reps you oppose bills like KOSA and SCREEN, I've reposted scripts! If it's too much, read right from the script. If that's too much, don't not call. Just list the bills and tell them "don't you dare." But say something, please

We live in a country where the government honors insurrectionists who sacked the Capitol, and defines peaceful protest, even before it occurs, to be terrorism.
They know their position is weak, they know they are unpopular, which is why they are seeking to stamp out dissent.

They never stopped. The news just stopped reporting it. Walz was doing it on the trail right up to the election.

They make up lies about paid agitators doing violence, and attach them to the name of a prominent Jewish person. This is antisemitism, and it infects every part of the GOP.

Am I the only one who remembers with regards to the Gaza situation that him and Netanyahu coordinated to make the situation worse so Biden would lose and Netanyahu could level the place without push back?

AGreed (deleted previous comment because this the wrong place for it).

Metsi's new look is a fair bit different but her attitude remains the same!

you don’t hate the media enough (or Apple/Google)

thiiiiis.

you do not, under any circumstances, Gotta Hand It To Anyone.

if they want to get in under the tent, they know where to go and what to do there.

until then, they're useful tools in our hand.

See a blowjob post a blowjob.

This is such an old version of the character but I still like it.

You're right about the strat looking like it's working.

Good. Good!
@figgityfigs.bsky.social more evidence for ya

I think people on the broad left need to stop getting in front of themselves like this and be able to trumpet a victory for people won by beating the fuck out of the GOP until they cave *as a victory for us and for Americans* rather than as a secret GOP win.

They admittedly don't see it that way though. Largely because of propaganda (we a HEAVILY propagandized people) but also bigotry.

The Dems are seen as the woman and minority party as well as the "Mom" in the political family and the US got racism and mommy issues.

syrian refugee crisis + eurocrisis broke everyone's brains and that was tiny relative to what's going to happen with climate change lol

Whole fucking continent is all-in on native ethnostatic herrenvolkism at this point and has been for a decade (real ones remember the shrieking to send death squads door-to-door through Molenbeek) while Americans are fighting our immigration cops in the streets

Listening to even liberal Europeans talk about immigration is enough to make even the most accommodationist Democrat go pale

Catch 22. Can't do that with Republicans having ANY power. So in order to get gov't functioning again you gotta kick out the GOP and you can't kick out the GOP if fuckers don't believe gov't can function.

The great irony of blueskys political hobbyists demanding that Ds talk about nothing but this issue now is that Harris actually made "Trumps an existential threat to our democracy" a pretty central campaign focus. Voters shrugged! The online left said she had to be more than just "anti-Trump"!

Kamala Harris was called a liar by the US media when she said Trump would set the army on the American people.

The average person doesn't read all that well and on a long ballot (we get those sometimes) people don't always pay attention to what the fuck they doing.

It's how the GOP got people to overturn a non-partisan redistricting measure once upon a time!

This is a weird fucking measure but this ain't the first time the GOP has done something like this here. If you vote NO on this (which we'll have to do) it looks like you DON'T want to give women care. It looks like you don't want to give them treatment for medical emergencies. It's a fucking mess!

We have a serious update in the fight for reproductive freedom in Missouri. Last year, Missouri made history as the first state in the country to overturn a dangerous Abortion Ban. But ever since, Missouri Republicans have made it their mission to undo your vote and strip away the rights we fought to protect. Now the Missouri GOP is at it again. Yesterday, a Missouri Judge approved the Republican ballot language designed to deceive voters into supporting another abortion ban. Here’s what they’re putting on the ballot, even though it never admits it reinstates an abortion ban: --Guarantee women’s medical care for emergencies, ectopic pregnancies, and miscarriages; --Ensure women’s safety during abortions; --Ensure parental consent for minors; --Repeal Article I, section 36, approved in 2024; allow abortions for medical emergencies, fetal anomalies, rape, and incest; --and Prohibit sex-change procedures for children This isn’t about safety or parental consent, it’s about control. This is another Republican ploy to hoodwink voters into voting against their own rights. They’re pulling these dirty tricks because they know they can’t win when the truth is on the ballot.

Some of ya'll need to see what happens in states like Missouri with how the GOP fuckers move and how they try to trick folks. Here's a message I got from the MO Dems today about their latest plan to trick people into undoing they own vote.

I think the earliest records we have probably are Mesopotamian maybe?

“We have to have discourse”

THEY SHOT A PRESBYTERIAN WHO ASKED THEM To pray WITH A PEPPER BALL IN BROAD DAY LIGHT

do you still think these people need yo be saved before they are stopped from harming people?!?

You know what this reminds me of? I knew a guy who when Black Panther came out had to explain to white people the difference between a pejorative and a slur with regards to colonizer.

He said "the N-word is saying someone ain't a person. Colonizer just says you a shitty one."
