Avedon Carol (in that order)

Following an absolute farcical trial that makes a mockery of the rule of law, an Egyptian court has fined Lina Attalah LE 3 million and ordered the closure of Mada Masr, Egypt's leading independent media outlet, relied on by the world's diplomats, researchers, and scholars.

|Americans - Schumer has to be dumped as Senate Majority Leader. For every corporate Democrat we lose in Senate Leadership, we will pick up two socialist Democrats in the suburbs in Philadelphia, and you can repeat that in Ohio and Illinois and Wisconsin. And Michigan.

Expanding the court is the moderate centrist position

Congratulations to Brazil and to all the Brazilians here on Bluesky.🇧🇷

🔴 King County Elections confirms two bins with election ballots were found in a dumpster at Seattle’s Golden Gardens this week …. it recovered 92 ballots in total, and it has reissued all ballots to the respective voters.

no matter how sure you are that these guys have broken a whole bunch of laws, you aren't nearly as certain as they are

with 3rd parties effectively outlawed it's either hostile takeover of dems via DSA or coolzone

seems like "on the orders of a nazi every major news outlet on the planet hounded an innocent man to death because he's black" should be one of the biggest stories of the year

"He promised change, he promised something very different from Keir Starmer, & if he doesn't deliver eventually something very different from Keir Starmer then he's going to be in trouble" Neal Lawson from Compass on Andy Burnham & next weeks budget

‘Customers should be less informed about the products they buy’ is such a wild stance to take

I have refused many invitations to be interviewed by Piers Morgan over the years. This time I made an exception, on the condition that it be one-on-one, not a scream fest, and that it actually be about the book Astra and I wrote. It was... an experience. youtu.be/SMFQBQx-qSU

thinking about how i wasted all this money on clothes when i could have invested this money in an index fund and eventually bought a senator like elon musk

Voted for her today

This is such a garbage way to report on anothet ludicrous, outrageous, illegal, actually criminal attempt by DOJ to disenfranchise voters and/or cast doubt on election results. Eight lazy paragraphs full of lies before the truth, attributed to “critics“. You know better, @shawnhubler.bsky.social.

Musk should be in prison.

💔💔💔💔💔

attracting media attention with "stunts" was literally the entire core of the civil rights movement. visuals of cops and other officials harassing, beating, killing organizers was pivotal. the civil rights movement would have gone wild for selfies and tweets.

I have been praying for this kind of pushback from Democrats against Elon Musk for a long time now and I am thrilled that the Talarico camp is leaning into it. Light. Him. Up.

Fake ladies and real threats - Brazil is on the front lines of the technofascist wars. Pay attention... @astra.bsky.social @democracynow.org

This is literally terrorism. www.cambridge-news.co.uk/news/local-n...

This dumb hack has no power to do that. States don't have to listen to anything he says.

This is the ninth (9th) major profile of Emanuel since December 2024 that failed to mention Laquan McDonald.

The racism that Abdul El-Sayed is facing from Republicans, the press, and even some Democrats is so disgusting.

And if Democrats had stood up to it in Florida in 2000, during the “Brooks Brothers riot”, we might not be in this position right now.

Some Republicans appear more interested in attacking Dolly Parton’s sister, Stella Parton, than addressing the voting concerns she raised. Stella and other Tennessee voters say they had to correct their selections before casting their ballots.

Complete bullshit. The body cam footage shows nothing of the kind. It shows a bunch of cops rushing a car over alleged shoplifting, and a driver trying to flee. It’s an easily disproven lie, strikingly similar to the DHS lies about Renee Good and others. mississippitoday.org/2026/10/22/s...

Once mass spam texts were made legal, younger donors vanished, leaving a grassroots fundraising machine that subsists on squeezing vulnerable seniors, some of whom give hundreds of times a day. It’s a horrific model. Consultants get generationally wealthy, and the party hollows out its future.

Performing an abortion in Mississippi could result in 10 years in prison but an officer killing a 1-year-old child is justified????

Yes, you putz, that's why we used to have a 91% top marginal rate. We didn't want billionaires. We were good that way.

Only a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of "billionaire wealth" (does that make it special somehow?) is earned by the billionaire. The rest is stolen from the people who actually worked for it. Call it a tax if you want, but if the billionaire didn't earn it, I don't know why we let them have it

I feel like billionaires are forgetting that confiscatory taxation is the *nice* option. There are options they're going to like a lot less.

also end the fucking step up in basis on death jfc

I hate that I had prior knowledge of this tweet
