Fan of voting, common sense and Kenny Rogers. Nihilism and horseshoe thinking doesn't accomplish anything. It's mocked here. Tax the churches - yes, that one, too.

This can't be a one day thing. Elon Musk paying for Cornel West' s campaign should be a cautionary tale for every grifter who trades on academic or entertainment glory to do vanity runs for office. Otherwise, we're going to see Jon Stewart, Stephen A Smith and Peyton Manning run for President.
NEW: The group behind Cornel West's 2024 ballot push was wholly funded through Elon Musk's dark money network, according to Sludge's review of tax documents. readsludge.com/2026/10/26/m...
@matthew.flux.community remember when you blamed our terrible, no good spineless media on Dems? Ron Klain read Matt Yglesias, you said. (Klain left the WH in 2023) Democrats are feckless, you said. Apologists for our bad media allow the media to operate in an environment where the GOP flourishes.
An example of how media props up fascists. "Failed to stop"; is not true, of course. GOP policies *actively caused* inflation. But the wording still implies Republicans are good faith actors who want to help Americans. That is the bigger lie, and the one they desperately want us to buy.

I loathe posting these, but this is an update: Betty’s pipes are fixed, but the house remains in shambles and still needs major renovations. If you can spare a few dollars, that would be so appreciated. If not, God bless you, but a repost is free. ❤️ gofund.me/01e55a690

I had never heard of Matthew Sheffield before, but apparently he is very obsessed with...... Matt Yglesias.
The person you are replying to is, unfortunately, arguing in bad faith. Hasan was absolutely correct. Yglesias has personally briefed Biden in private and was the 3rd most followed writer by Biden admin ppl
@matthew.flux.community muted me but not before he had a chance to proclaim the importance of.....Matt Yglesias?...one last time. Seriously.....are the media guys ok? They don't seem ok.
It's unfortunate that this person thinks that Yglesias's Democratic influence just magically evaporated entirely the second Biden left office. But I have put her on mute now.
Look at this absolute freak melt down over .....Matthew Yglesias. Ron Klain hasn't been in the White House since 2023. And yet.....he is Yglesias's biggest fan? I swear, White men are determined to make mediocrity great again if they have to post it into existence.
Now you're lying. Very interesting. You know for a fact that my thread mentioned Yglesias moderating bigshot panels. I invited you to see otherwise. You failed. Besides the Klain love, Y personally spoke w Biden privately. Besides the panels, 25% of Biden officials followed him. Stop lying.

Soooooo....what did these innocent voters think when Abbott was shipping immigrants all over the country?
Yes exactly. I think there is an unfortunate tendency to blame voters who often are very hardpressed for time and lack media literacy. A majority of Hispanic men voted for Trump, as did nearly half of Hispanic women. They weren't voting for deporting 20 million people.
Why didn't Democrats buy Fox News and OAN, and take over MSNOW, I am a very serious thought leader.
They were victims of a media environment negligent Democrats let happen. Republicans acted and Democrats didn't in response. Democratic Party leaders have agency. They can and should make better decisions.
To all the 'progressives' getting mad at Democrats for this: You gave Trump this power if you stayed home or voted Stein.
Scoop: White House lawyers are weighing preemptive mass pardons for junior staff, sources says Under discussion: Pardoning everyone involved in deportation, war, or trade policy www.washingtonsun.com/whitehouse/w...
This case is such a miscarriage of justice. Stapleton and Leone Fitzgerald come off as horribly cruel and lacking in empathy. www.nola.com/news/courts/...
I wish Ronald Reagan was alive to watch Donald Trump's Republican Party sell out the United States and democracy.
A wild story: the CEO of a US energy company whose plans were discussed during the Witkoff-Kushner-Putin negotiations resigns. Why? He learned that his company's main investor is a sanctioned Russian company, not the UAE www.nytimes.com/2026/10/23/u...

Kamala Harris told RFK Jr, in no uncertain terms, to buzz off. Trump put him in charge of Health and Human Services.

Forbes describes how Trump used an environmental easements on Trump National Golf Club in Florida to dodge $825 million in taxes, "give or take a couple hundred million." This is how Todd Blanche is helping Trump cheat on his taxes. www.forbes.com/sites/danale...
I'm not a Boomer. I'm a person who 1) knows that the age of the average voter is 52 2) knows that too many people under 52 don't vote 3) knows that men 18-35 voted for Trump 4) knows that Medicare isn't just for people 65+. Nothing is hurting people like this more than her own misplaced ageism.
OMG ARE YOU BLAMING BOOOOOMMMMEEERRRSSS IT'S NOT MEEEEEEEEE! Hey genius, who are the majority of people on Medicare? I don't have time or energy for the "not all" foolishness anymore. BTW dear, largest demos for trump, genx white men, then boomer white men. And it's not only trump, is it?
