Okay so we have a number now: the Onion is officially 6 months ahead of reality.

It’s hard to articulate the incandescent rage that I am feeling after watching this clip. WTAF? Did our president really just suggest that *millions* of American lives would be a small price to pay? Yes he did. Don’t become numb to this. Get ANGRY and VOTE!! #midterms #voteearly

The trailer for my new film, "Musk," has just been released.

If you abstract nearly every political fight beyond its material specifics, so many are actually about agency - I think this is an opening for a bigger story Democrats could tell. amandalitman.substack.com/p/my-toddler...

Been thinking a lot about this quote from Roger Ebert today.

1. Progressive Champions PAC, a super PAC created last month, says on its website that its mission is to “elect bold, progressive candidates up and down the ballot.” A Popular Information investigaiton reveals that it's a GOP front group. Following along for receipts. 🧵

NOT ANOTHER F*CKING PENNY.

We owe all that we have to the selfless Americans, in our own generation and back through time to the Founding, who gave their lives defending our nation.

Really thought this was an article from The Onion.

A cartoon from the 1950’s that’s more relevant than ever 💔

Here are the Top 5 Dogs of the week!

YES! Exactly. The GOP clawed back funding from the IRS that was part of the Inflation Reduction Act, so there’s no reason that can’t be done here.

my expectation of democratic senators is that they find 1/10th of the bravery of your average 70 year old lutheran lady following ICE around mpls in her subaru crosstrek

A reminder that Liam Ramos, the son of legal residents in Minnesota, is still being held in a Texas prison. A five year old little boy - and America’s global reputation - now scarred for life. (📸 Ali Daniel’s/AP)

Regular people in Minnesota standing up to ICE and protecting their neighbors. Denmark and Belgium taking the strongest stances of European countries against Trump’s Greenland threats. Amazing how those with less power take action and sacrifice, while so many of the powerful equivocate and cower.

She is an expert on authoritarian regimes, in case you're wondering whether peaceful protests matter.

Cait Conley is a total badass running for Congress. Listen to her message.

I know people on Bsky know this but I hope it filters out: The feds are OCCUPYING the Twin Cities. This is a blockade, a siege. They are shutting down economic and civic activity. They are conducting "papers please" stops. They are criminalizing being a bystander/witness. You could be next.

We’re hosting a national rapid response call tomorrow night to go over concrete next steps. Please circulate - we need a national response. More details to come. www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

IT FINALLY HAPPENED I AM ON A PLANE WITH A BABY WHO SAYS “HI” TO EVERYONE AS HE GOES DOWN THE AISLE

Pete Hegseth is a war criminal and should be fired immediately.

Tonight should be a good reminder to Senate Democrats they better not cave.
