To win Michigan, AES is campaigning with Obama, Bernie, AOC. That’s who you campaign with to win swing states. Not Dick Cheney’s daughter.

The degree to which actual child predators keep emerging in the party driven by an anti pedophile conspiracy remains stunning

It really needs to be emphasized that the woman Vivek is featuring in these videos fled with an accused & indicted child rapist and successfully helped him avoid trial for 20+ years.

I’m most upset at the right and the media but I have enough anger left over for the democrats who enabled this shit. From Obama and Clinton turning the page to Biden praising McConnell, punting on prosecuting and welcoming Trump back and Harris palling around w Cheney. All of it.

When Grammy-winning musician Rhiannon Giddens begins playing “Old Corn Liquor,” a traditional Black American folk tune, acclaimed Chinese pipa virtuoso Wu Man recognizes similarities to Chinese pentatonic music and spontaneously joins in. The joy on their faces says it all.

NEW: ICE is trying to deport a mother of 4 while her husband is at Fort Benning in Army basic training. When she went to pick up the family's military IDs, Navy personnel turned her over to ICE. She's been in the US since age six. With @nancyayoussef.bsky.social www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

Hayley Williams During a tour in New Orleans on Saturday, Williams took the last moments of her show to encourage fans to vote in the Nov. 3 midterm elections, and compared the MAGA movement to the KKK. She has criticized Christian nationalism, ICE, and Project 2025 during her solo tours.

Periodic reminder that guillotines are the moderate solution

Watch an ICE agent run down and then run over a man. The man was was then writhing on the ground, saying "You broke my leg! You broke my leg!" Agents didn't help him. And btw, the man wasn't the target of their operation.

Please take all the "move to the center and betray trans people" Democratic strategists, launch them into the sun, and replace them with whoever is running this campaign.

This was a pretty small protest, but it honestly seemed incredibly effective. I don’t think that they’ve done this before, the only time I’ve been to a protest at this building was on a weekend. I really don’t think these workers liked being shamed!

amanda moore 🐢@noturtlesoup17.bsky.social

Protest outside of ICE’s headquarters in Washington, DC today, focusing on the bureaucrats who work for ICE. Some workers smirked as they passed the activists, but many more hid their faces.

Sen. Susan Collins helped steer millions in federal defense contracts to Navatek, whose CEO illegally funneled thousands of dollars to her campaign. The FBI sought to launch a probe and was eyeing Collins and other lawmakers. Then Trump gutted the unit in charge. THREAD 🧵

"My opponent wants to hire creeps to inspect your daughter's genitals if she wants to play soccer. I wouldn't trust him or any hired weirdo from his pedophile-protecting party alone in a room with any kid." Go on the offensive, you cowards! It's not that hard!

Max Kennerly@maxkennerly.bsky.social

"This election is about the threat of trans kids" is the worst possible messaging for Dems yet so many candidates are leaning into it. No voter will flip R->D over it. Low-info voters read this as "you're focused on bullshit that doesn't affect me" while the base reads this as "you're an asshole."

The man ICE shot in Austin today is named Wilber Rafael Garces Perez. Per his lawyer, she and Perez’s family were run off of hospital property where he’s being treated and won’t even confirm he’s there because he’s “in ICE custody.” Actual criminals.

So @anneapplebaum.wsocial.eu, why haven't you ever said this about Gaza when it is indisputably true about it as well? Or Palestine in general, where we're seeing the exact dynamic you're talking about play out in the West Bank!?

Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.

I remain convinced that the most effective response to a politician or a pundit who's pushing transphobia is "I'm not sure why you're obsessed with other people's genitals but it's really creepy"

I’m a Texan trans kid who almost died because of Ken Paxton. The world should know what he’s done. This was very difficult for me to write, but given what's at stake, I cannot bear to stay silent about what I went through at Paxton's hands. He must not be rewarded for what he's done to trans kids.

Hey remember when Scott Jennings said that he had a long phone conversation about policy with a hospitalized Mitch McConnell and then the senator didn't appear on video for several months?

Happy 72nd Birthday to Ruby Bridges, who at the age of 6 desegregated the New Orleans public schools. She’s younger than 30 senators and our last two presidents—and only 7 years older than Barack Obama. The past isn’t past.
