These guys are so vulnerable to defecting to Chicago

I’m not body shaming but I’m also honest this Texas boy is gonna roll through Portillo’s once and switch allegiances

A new civil war is a small price to pay if it gives me the distraction I need to not release the Epstein Files.

The End Of Non-Sequitur Politics Let's have more politics about the thing itself.

There is no sense in which the Enabling Act of 1933 would have become an acceptable piece of legislation if it had included a carve-out requiring Hitler to stabilize out-of-pocket health care costs. Same goes for the Enabling Act of 2025. www.offmessage.net/p/the-end-of...

"Too often on the left, sometimes you hear them talking about big scary Donald Trump, and it actually kind of helps him." Like AOC, let's make fun of him. @timmiller.bsky.social:

Bringing a Survey to a Gun Fight “Pollingism” Has Failed Democrats and Voters. Here’s Why, and What to Do Instead.

"Polling-ism" versus "Magnet-ism" is such a sharp frame. It's the difference between an approach that can win in the right circumstances (Spanberger) versus one that creates and changes circumstances (Mamdani.) Yes, I get that Mamdani's advisers read polls! www.weekendreading.net/p/bringing-a...

Democrats Must Embrace War Mindset We have exited a long period of peace and entered into a struggle not unlike war, in which all the old certainties have gone malleable and the future of the republic is at stake.

yes, also the democratic base *wants* to fight

our politicians don't have to raise an army, just lead it

I was a skeptic about the import of the Epstein files.

But 3 invasions of cities, one military buildup outside Venezuela, a government shutdown, and so many other things meant to distract have me convinced whatever’s in there is the biggest presidential scandal in U.S. history.

How it started. How it's going.

This short passage from a Politico afternoon newsletter captures a huge amount of the advantage gained by lying at scale and the why the DC press corps remains wired for the GOP.

Rep. @maxwellfrost.bsky.social has a message for the GOP: “You run the House, the Senate, and the White House. If you want to pass the evil bill, do it yourself.”

So good.

speech bubble in the center reads: ‘THIS IS A BULLY-FREE ZONE.’ At the top, text says: ‘October is National Bullying Prevention Awareness Month.’ At the bottom, text reads: ‘Stand Up. Speak Out. Support Each Other.’ Albany County Legislature Majority seal appears in the lower right.”

October is National Bullying Prevention Awareness Month.

Bullying has no place in our schools or our community. By standing up, speaking out, and supporting each other, we can build safe and respectful spaces where every student belongs.

He's telling us what he's doing. Using the military to suppress protest. At some point the opposition needs to listen to him and adjust strategy.

the president of the united states wants to use the american military to kill american citizens on american soil. that's the whole story!

Letter to the President and CEO of the New York Power Authority in support of NYPA’s plan to develop 7 gigawatts of renewable energy by 2030.

Signed by several members of New York’s Democratic Congressional Delegation.

The New York Power Authority's renewable energy plan demonstrates the leadership we need to meet New York's climate goals.

It is a step toward lowering electric bills and I urge NYPA to continue expanding.

I am proud to lead this effort with @reppaultonko.bsky.social and NY Democrats.

The Governor Newsom Press Account is beyond good.

The United States is the 1st Edition AD&D of representative republics.

For 26 but especially 2028 it's time for Democrats to make clear that the current Supreme Court will have to be reformed (expanded in number, reformed in structure) to allow popular govt to continue in the United States. Not so much a litmus test as precondition for any other promise to be credible.

this most "this could have been an email" thing i've ever heard

Trump To Travel With Own Escalator Following U.N. Embarrassment

I am already the Joker, I am now in the process of becoming the Absolute Batman Joker

i really wish our law enforcement and media werent telegraphing to mass shooters that messages written on bullets will be breathlessly and uncritically publicized with no further examination

Opinion | This Is About So Much More Than Lisa Cook

to me, the “column” is less a form than an opportunity (and a challenge). you’re telling me i have as much space as i’d like to make an argument about anything i’d like to an audience inclined to pay close attention? well let’s see if they’ll read 2000 words on democratic legitimacy. (gift link)

Thank you Mr President sir for making the former co host of the Man Show one of the most influential voices in America sir
