Oh my.

James Talarico is incredibly skilled in dismantling Christian Nationalists.

Get this man in the Senate.

I'm not going to believe any denials until Bill Clinton state "I did not have sex with that man."

Somewhere there's a mentee of Larry Summers who is icked the fuck out that her mentor was getting relationship advice from Jeffrey Epstein.

What's the point of having a scapegoat if you can't blame everything on them?

I subscribed to his substack because who the fuck is he and why are people listening to him? Those questions remain unanswered. Many more questions are raised.

As annoying as it is to see the DNC back Mills, a contested primary is a great way for you to get in front of voters. There will be plenty of powder available for the general.

I'm shocked there's racism at the GOP! Shocked!

Who's more likely to cheat -- Trump and the Republicans or Democrats? Get rid of electronic voting machines entirely. Every information security expert has already told us how easy they are to hack. Return to paper ballots that can be audited via multiple measures and counted by hand.

Democratic challengers in every elected position, everywhere. We cannot just focus on the House and Senate -- Trumpers need to be defeated, from dogcatcher to Mayor.

He needs to pull focus from every political liability closing inβ€”Epstein revelations, an unraveling economy, the tariff debacle, and a looming government shutdown. Each headline threatens to dominate the news cycle and each deployment buries it under a crisis Trump controls.

It's stagecraft. There’s no credible public-safety trigger. No riots, no breakdown of order, just Trump, eager to manufacture chaos. It’s the same playbook he ran in 2020: provoke unrest, flood the airwaves with β€œlaw and order” rhetoric, and cast himself as the only one who can restore order.

It's prime spider season here in Southern California. They get huge this time of the year!

When is the next No Kings rally, because we need to start hitting the streets.

That's because you didn't allow someone practicing gender affirming care (ICE-barbie) to use a bathroom.

Didn't 2024 show a GOP strengthening among Hispanic voters? Then Trump deports their grandmothers and starts a culture war with one of the popular music stars in the Hispanic world today.

I'm confused. Doesn't the GOP control the house and the senate? How did they get their BBB through but they can't fund the government?

Week of August 25 Cable News Ratings: MSNBC Grows in Total Day Demo The week and weekend leading up to the Labor Day holiday typically result in lower viewership.

Their primetime audience is 362,000. A top podcast or YouTube channel dwarfs that. They can do whatever they want with little to no consequence on the public debate.

Maybe not, but I know the prayers will change me. By praying for my enemies, I can lose their power over me. I understand it is difficult and asks a lot.

Imagine if those people found true happiness, health, safety, and peace though, the sort of which we pray for. Their horrible actions demonstrate they only have the opposite.

Let them nuke the filibuster. It belongs in another era, when the Senate was a deliberative body, not the cancerous institution it has become.
