Irishman in D.C. Happy to debate policy but not people’s right to exist. It takes a village …

So the Dems are now using the Epstein files as a distraction from their capitulation?

Israeli parliament backs death penalty bill targeting Palestinians Bill passed by 39 votes to 16 but must clear two more parliamentary votes to become law

‘Israel’s parliament has backed a controversial bill that seeks to impose a mandatory death sentence on Palestinians who kill Jewish Israelis for nationalist reasons, but not on Jewish Israelis who kill Palestinians.’

Somewhat unnecessary when government policy already imposes a death sentence on simply being Palestinian. But unsurprising, these are the kind of laws you expect in Apartheid/Jim Crow states.

my anger is not going away in a few weeks. it is insulting for these senators to horsetrade so that ppl retiring or not running until 2030 can vote no while they find just enough yes votes to do what the GOP wants.
i will be angry for longer than a few weeks and i don't appreciate the condescension.

This. It’s so transparent that these bozos were picked to take the heat while the rest clutch their pearls.

Dems and GOP are two cheeks of the same arse.

List of the Senator’s affiliations with AIPAC topping the list.

I like the way BlueSky tags their sponsors like a NASCAR driver’s suit.

This is why it’s The Epstein Recess. It won’t be back in session until after the special election in TN on Dec. 2nd, where Johnson hopes he’ll get a vote that counteracts Grijalva’s vote.

Yes, Republicans are willing to let kids go hungry and for the economy to tank to protect wealthy pedophiles.

Zohran Mamdani won young men 18-29 by 40 points.

40!

And he did so by standing FOR economic justice, FOR Trans rights, FOR immigrant rights, FOR labor rights, FOR Palestinian rights, & FOR diversity—& still unapologetically dunking on Trump.

He is anti-MAGA w/o throwing people under the bus.

Today is my birthday. 48. Is that old? Well, it's the oldest I've ever been.

Have I learnt anything worth sharing in that time? Let's see.

I can’t remember the last time that I felt like I saw a politician who wasn’t going to fold like a cheap suit. Am I naive to think that Zohran is a game changer?

Probably the only U.S. political analysis I ever bothered reading. You guys were the best. Good luck in your search.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

When I first moved to the U.S. in ‘95 living in a granny flat in Connecticut knowing nobody, I decided to learn about this baseball thing to understand this country. Ken Burns’ history of baseball was playing on PBS and I watched the Maddux Braves on TBS every night. Loved baseball from day one.
