I mean, honestly, at least the Romans had a Julian and Augustinian period after their republic ended. We’ve just gone straight to Nero and Caligula…

I live in a rural town and, like, I don't know how to tell you this, but the girls play on the boys team and vice versa all the time because otherwise we don't have enough players for a game and it's literally always fine so stop being weirdos about kids sports and just let trans kids play.

Democrats Call for Special Counsel to Scrutinize Trump Ties to Epstein www.nytimes.com/2026/10/26/u...

This needs robust recirculation: youtu.be/t0e9guhV35o?...

We can feel what Brazil and Serbia are feeling. It’s in our hands.

When Democrats do well this fall, we’re going to see a lot of “strategists” trying to take credit for their approach. The trans panic people have been nothing but a drag on Democratic momentum and they need to fuck off into the sun

Just to be clear... Prop 40 is a ONE-TIME retroactive tax. It applies ONLY to billionaires and would tax just 5% of their wealth — which grew 30% in 2025. California's billionaires would still be worth $2T+ AFTER the tax. The revenue will fund healthcare for millions of Californians. Vote YES.

We acknowledge that no one has the bandwidth for this, but if it helps: -It’s ‘sleight of hand’ -It’s ‘bated breath’ -It’s ‘lo and behold’ -It's 'buck naked' -It’s ‘brass tacks’ -It’s ‘free rein’ -It’s ‘toe the line'

The Trump Administration said there were 16,000 illegal voters in Nevada... Then they admitted their list included only 158 people. And Nevada double-checked, and not a single person on the 158 list was illegal. A completely made-up lie. truthout.org/articles/dhs...

It’s safe to say if the billionaires are spending vast amounts of money to defeat a ballot proposition, we might want to make sure it passes. YES on 40.

I keep thinking of how morally bankrupt it was for Republican lawmakers to wear AR-15 lapel pins.

Hey California! Be careful this election because the big money creeps are trying to trick you (again).

This is wild & deeply alarming from this good opinion: “[DOJ] suggest[s] that every American citizen who registers to vote is the subject of a voter fraud investigation underway in the Civil Rights Division simply because they registered to vote.” 👀⚖️

The world must stop equating wealth with knowledge, wealth with wisdom, wealth with sainthood, or to any other redeeming quality.

At this point, I think you have to assume that anyone who still campaigns as a Republican is a Trump supporter, no matter what they say.

This is stochastic terrorism. Ted Cruz is an extremist encouraging violence.

Please share wisely to publicize the attempts by musk to suppress votes and spread disinformation popular.info/p/the-hidden...

Apparently people are sharing this far and wide on social media, which I think is horrible. This could cripple ICE operations. PLEASE do not share this.

It's like a parody, but it's deadly serious; the Commerce Department (which includes Census, NOAA, and others) has outright deleted "don't alter or suppress scientific findings for political reasons" from its scientific integrity rules. Seriously.

Here’s your daily reminder that when you go to cast your ballot in November please vote all the way down the ballot. The further down you go, those races really do get closer to your front door and ultimately your wallet. Let’s turn these laboratories of autocracy back into democracy.

Texans, if your voter registration is marked as “suspense,” it may mean that your address needs to be updated or confirmed. It does not necessarily mean you are ineligible. Check your status & update your info. Visit VoteTexas.gov to learn more.

Texans, if you’re one of the people who had their voter registration suspended, there’s still time to fix it! trib.al/OP3mVj5

Texas! Check your voter registration

Trump wants to hand parts of Yosemite National Park over to a private developer who has unsuccessfully tried to develop a resort outside of the park for decades. Is nothing sacred? Yosemite is a national treasure, it doesn’t need a sleazy private resort.

Polls don’t win elections. PEOPLE DO. Don’t get comfortable. Don’t assume anything. We have to show up in overwhelming numbers this November and leave absolutely nothing to chance.

THE WEALTH NEVER TRICKLED DOWN. THE BILLS DID. By Murry Evns Earlier today, I shared a post explaining the enormous difference between America’s average wealth and its median wealth.

If you want members of this regime to be held legally accountable, you have to add four seats to the Supreme Court in 2029. Otherwise, they'll protect their fellow oligarchs like they did in 2023. 1. Win the senate 2. Block nominees 3. Elect a dem POTUS 4. Congress adds 4 seats 5. Have nice things

Entartete Kunst.

Republicans alone slashed Medicare with zero Democratic votes and timed it for after the election. A Democratic Congress will restore the cuts, cap insulin at $35, expand dental and vision coverage, and crack down on Big Pharma. Vote them in. #RepublicansCutHealthcare

I uncovered a bombshell that hasn’t been reported anywhere else. It’s a new rule DOJ quietly adopted which gives the Attorney General tremendous new power to punish political enemies and reward friends and donors. Please watch and share. youtube.com/shorts/rcee4...

Mayor Zohran Mamdani has balanced New York City's budget. Governor Gavin Newsom has balanced California's budget. Donald Trump has increased the national debt by over 40%. Republicans make vague promises about fiscal responsibility, but Democrats get shit done.

If Congress doesn't act now, Social Security benefits could be cut by more than 20 percent after 2032. Senator Bernie Moreno and I have a bipartisan solution: lift the Social Security payroll tax cap. We need to save Social Security for the next generation. Let's get this done.

This is the way. Are you listening, liberals? We need a new Reconstruction, not a reconciliation. America Broke Something When It Gave Trump a Second Chance www.nytimes.com/2026/06/03/o...

In addition to expanding vote-by-mail, Connecticut's reform bill also bans federal law enforcement officials appearing within 250 feet of a polling place without specific permission from a court or state officials. Connecticut's AG says "I stand ready" to enforce that. boltsmag.org/connecticut-...

This New Yorker cartoon is accurate but a gut punch.

This is how it's done: Independent juxtaposes JD Vance's speech about fraud being "theft from the US Treasury" with Trump's actual theft of $1.8 billion from the US Treasury. www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...

The over-emphasis on “getting students ready for jobs” has been a problem for decades now. Higher-ed SHOULD be about pushing yourself how to learn even more, and then specializing. Not just to get a certificate that helps raise your lifetime salary value.

Important reporting on the planned cuts to the Forest Service.

Had enough yet?

Trump’s net worth has nearly tripled in his second term, reaching $6.5 billion. His administration is the most brazenly self-enriching in American history. My @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social Chart.

News accounts are straining to portray the Virginia move as a betrayal of Dems' principled opposition to gerrymandering. It's pure bullshit. Dems passed a 2021 bill ending it for *both sides.* The Dem position is that Trump/Rs don't get to play by their own rules: newrepublic.com/article/2093...

A reminder while Republicans bitch about Dems finishing the redistricting fight they started: they have full control of gov’t— they can pass a law banning gerrymandering any time they want. They won’t. Republicans aren’t mad gerrymandering exists; they’re mad that they’re not the only ones using it.

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?

Spoiler alert: nothing trickled down.
