Congratulations on your wedding Don Jr. Sorry for distracting your Dad with this important work.

She has the moral clarity that a lot of elected Dems could use: what is happening today is evil. You don’t need to analyze it much more closely than that

Whatever Trump is desperately covering up about Epstein, it’s clearly so bad that he thinks it could destroy him

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

People used to throw rocks at you until you died for this kind of stuff

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard. We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions. We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful. Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened. This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

Kirk didn't serve in the military or hold office. The war hero treatment -- half-mast flags, military guard, Air Force Two escort, calls for a statue at the Capitol or to lie in the Rotunda -- shows that for MAGA, service to Trump has become the highest, most honorable form of service.

I have a lot of issues with Gavin Newsom but he is calling out Trump in a way other major leaders aren’t and if he causes Trump to have a stroke I will buy him a latte

Dear god let this man cook.

Walz: If you say you love freedom but you don't believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love is not freedom, it is privilege.

Why is this man doing it alone? Where are all the other senators? Paging @wyden.senate.gov @jeff-merkley.bsky.social

Leavitt confirmed that the WH is working on deporting US citizens to El Salvador

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: I am here today to urge Canadians to avoid travel to the United States if at all possible and to call on our government to stand up for our citizens who are being denied their rights through arbitrary detention in the United States.

AOC: What they like to call as radical, I believe is common sense. I believe that when a person gets sick, they shouldn’t go bankrupt in the wealthiest country in the history of the world. Common sense I believe that a minimum wage should cover the minimum cost to live. Common sense...

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific. If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

Cool so what happens if GOP attach a national abortion ban to a CR? You'll vote for that too? 🚮

How it started. How it’s going

Trump called out Maine for resisting his executive order on transgender athletes. Trump: "Are you not going to comply with that?” Gov. Janet Mills: "I'm complying with the state and federal laws." Trump said "we are the federal law" and threatened to withhold funding. Mills: "See you in court."

that Trumpers think the US Postal *SERVICE* should be a profit-making enterprise exposes the fallacy in their conception of government

Suddenly, out of nowhere, a declassified World War II-era CIA guide to sabotaging fascism in the workplace has become one of the most popular free ebooks on the internet: www.404media.co/declassified...

the reason all billionaires are insane is because once you pass the point of being able to buy anything on earth you start coveting things that can’t be bought

I’ve been saying this for a while: the party doesn’t have a messaging problem as much as they have a listening problem. I support Ben Wikler for DNC Chair. I’m not sure about Vice Chair yet, but David Hogg is on point with his remarks about messaging & political consultants. @davidhogg.bsky.social

The NYPD can't stop making album covers for Luigi Mangione

Let me say something that is controversial because our brains are broken: Vaccines are a miracle and amazing

I'm sure this Cabinet of inexperienced grifters who excel solely at advancing their own careers will produce an administration that runs like a well-oiled machine.

Hide your dogs

This is worse than 2016, when the country sort of stumbled into Trump, not fully knowing what he was. This time around America knew what he was and chose it anyway.

THERE WERE SEMIS FILLED WITH DEAD BODIES BECAUSE THE MORGUES WERE OVERFLOWING.

More than 800 veterans who were dishonorably discharged due to Don't Ask Don't Tell policies will have their status upgraded to "honorable" automatically, allowing them to access veteran's benefits. www.bbc.com/news/article...

I cannot over-emphasize the colossal loser energy of taking a platform where once the biggest stars in the history of popular culture voluntarily posted original content every day because they enjoyed it into a pyramid scheme where the worst dipshits on earth pay to be fake friends with each other.

I do want to force catholic hospitals to perform abortions against their will, actually. If you can't offer full maternal care don't be a hospital. Fuck off.

I will remember this exchange for as long as I live.

Yep. I think a lot about "pinch" the concept I first learned from mobile game design that by making something inconvenient, you can charge people to make that inconvenience go away. And once you learn to spot pinch in all aspects of society, you can't unsee it.
