@nytimes.com homepage, Sunday 11AM…the story & pics are perfectly fine, but for God’s sake.

There are many more of us than there are of them.
We must never forget this, no matter how dark things may (correctly) seem.

@justmets.bsky.social

He is much weaker & more vulnerable than you think, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social & @schumer.senate.gov
HOLD THE LINE!!!

She means you, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social & @schumer.senate.gov

No one deserves to meet his eternal reward this way - but imagine, just for a sec, if a comparably influential progressive media figure were tragically shot & killed.

Now imagine the right wing & Republicans being held to the same moral standards in their responses.

Nope - I couldn’t either.

Hey, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social - with all due respect, it is time to endorse @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social - he is the nominee of *your* party, overwhelmingly supported by *your* district’s own voters.

Strongly recommend getting on the train before it’s really too late - folks will remember.

Are you listening @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social & @schumer.senate.gov ???????

"Their insistence on owning guns, with very few restrictions, means that mass shootings—including in schools and churches—will always be part of American life."

Fundamental question from @jvl.bsky.social -

"Why won’t people just acknowledge that this is a tradeoff they’re willing to make?"

The Obsession Over Woke Language Misses the Point The focus on certain words is a way to avoid much tougher questions.

@danpfeiffer.bsky.social offers a helpful, reflective perspective on the Dems' language debate...and as is often the case, it's much more of a both/and, vs. either/or.

Again, for @housedemocrats.bsky.social & @senatedemocrats.bsky.social leadership in the cheap seats - the POTUS painfully reminds almost every day he is a shockingly addled old man - functionally incapable of leading a neighborhood potluck, let alone this country.
Call it out, stop accepting it.

🧵re: CDC shooting - feels trite to keep offering the “can you even imagine” takes - but can you even imagine the firestorm (& not just on Fox) if this were a Black shooter enraged over DOGE cuts & a white PO had been killed?
It’s stunning how much right wing depravity we’ve decided to just accept.

Any high ranking/influential Dems still on the fence about this need to get on side ASAP.

Nothing like a solid genocide joke.

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I wouldn’t say every Democrat running for office should frame the consequences of Republican governance this way, but…most of them should.

People are dying - with more tragedy still to come.

And if you think the GOP wouldn’t…man, I don’t know what to say - you weren’t made for this moment.

Kristi Noem Secretly Took a Cut of Political Donations A dark money group paid $80,000 to Noem’s personal company when she was governor of South Dakota. She did not include this income on her federal disclosure forms, a likely violation of ethics requirem...

From tens of thousands to literal billions, every freakin' one of them is in it to get theirs. It's just a big fucking grift.
And Steven Miller.

Tell them you could have helped stop this in 2021 or even last year, but were too much of a spineless moral vacuum.

In Knoxville, you can still occasionally find one at a gas station in more affluent zip codes.

The fundamental question with which our country will have to grapple (or not, I suppose?) for decades.

Nothing but the deepest admiration for this incredibly brave woman (and increasingly more like her) who are standing up to Trump's & Miller's stormtroopers.

1. Zero thought of even considering a shout out to innocent Iranian civilians, who, of course, are subhuman, undeserving of their own sovereignty.
2. You’re the governor of Tennessee, literally no one cares what you think about war & geopolitics.
We barely care about your thoughts on Tennessee.

Exactly right - and humanity will reap the whirlwind of his insane pettiness and gobsmacking naïveté.

We are small but mighty. #knoxrocks #nokings
