David Brooks is Communist Manifesto posting, Harvard is antifascist now, Bill Kristol is a Bernie Bro now, SCOTUS is releasing emergency panic judgments, Frank fucking Luntz is in the NYT today extolling the virtues of empathy.

I contributed to a children’s Bible with The Bible for Normal People. While I often hold my co-religionists’ feet to the fire for their nonsense (and worse), I do my best to also make constructive contributions where I can. I’m proud of this and if it’s up your alley you can pre-order now.

Totally agree with this. Flying a person to a third country that they may never have been to, directly into a prison where they are going to be forced to do hard labor, is not a deportation; it's something else entirely.

My thoughts are that Trump doesn’t care about midterms, and he certainly doesn’t give a flying fuck about the Republican Party. He got his get out of jail free card - that’s all he wanted.

GOP Reps and Senators are already borderline panicking about midterms, if that makes you feel any better.

This picture says it all!

Describes the budget passed by ALL Retrumplicans in the house , and ALL democrats rejected it , but passed by majority or TWO (2)!

Raises debt ceiling $4 trillion
Reduces taxes and deregulation for the rich $2 trillion

Cuts essential programs for the poor $2 trillion

Every step of the way, they’ll have to show their cards. And every time, we’ll remind people they lied.

We’re not done.

This fight isn’t over.

👀 The Senate and House still have to sort out their differences.

💰 Then comes the budget resolution with actual numbers.

✂️ And after that, the appropriations process, where they have to spell out exactly what they’re cutting.

House Rs just passed the budget resolution, the first step in their process to enact a bill that'd kick millions off Medicaid & cut SNAP down to just $1.60 per person per meal on avg while cutting taxes for the top 0.1% by $278k - all while increasing the debt

🧵on what's to come and WHERE TO FIGHT

This is exactly how Hitler talked. It's not even a comparison or analogy, as people claim.

It's a direct connection in ideology as well as a similar approach to governance and relationship to democracy.

This needs to be how we talk about it. They are the ideological descendants of Hitler.

“We are the federal law.” Never once did I imagine Judge Dredd would actually apply to my life. Also, “see you in court” is spot on. Well done, Gov of Maine.

Dear Canadian friends, as someone born and raised 15 minutes away from BC, I (and many other Americans I know) do not and will not support any of my gov’t’s hostility towards y’all. The US is on fire, but come what may, I am your friend and will act like it.

Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

Again, I think it’s worthwhile to help out with these. Even one seat makes the GOP’s legislative agenda harder to deploy. I recommend phone banking—easy to get started and it helps to talk to folks and at this point the argument for why folks should vote is clear.
