Once, when people capitulated to power, they did so as quietly as possible and then spoke of it as little as possible. Today, they tell themselves that they are making "great decisions" for the history books. Trumpism corrupts both its enthusiasts and its accommodators.

Sen. Bill Cassidy: "My voice cracked because…I would read history books and I would read about these great decisions on the Senate floor…The fact that I, Bill Cassidy, was able to do that, I am so privileged, and whenever I just for a second am hit by the gravity of that..I get emotional."

In Seattle: - People bike all the time. - We have a temperate climate. - Half the hills are downhill.

Andrew Crowder@awatayama.bsky.social

In Seattle it is: -Dark during commuting hours 1/3 of the year -Rainy 2/3 of the year -Hilly 100% of the time. Biking will NEVER be a substantial commuting solution. The amount of pandering to and resources wasted on a vocal, entitled minority is disgusting.

More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were “sorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...

Pam Bondi refused to apologize to Epstein survivors standing right behind her. Instead, she laughed and called it “theatrics.” She released Epstein Files that exposed survivors’ identities—and instead protected pedophiles. If not an apology, we will force answers & accountability.

In December, I told you about how Trump’s Department of Education is stripping nurses of our professional status and making school more expensive. From now until March 2, we need you to raise your voice and submit a public comment: www.federalregister.gov/documents/20...

Rep. Lauren Underwood@underwood.house.gov

As the only Democratic nurse in Congress, I remember how expensive pursuing my degree was. And now, Trump’s Education Department is moving to make it even more expensive. Here’s how you can help.

Replying to @acyn.bsky.social

Evidence is good for later. But now requires him to use his powers to protect his state from the federal government. “Good trouble” isn’t good enough anymore.

Why is the "we must be united!" hectoring directed at people who are mad at the Cavers and not to the Cavers? Everyone who's mad was united, then the Cave Caucus walked across the aisle and betrayed what the public had been told was the Dem position.

Senator Sheldon Whitehouse@whitehouse.senate.gov

The sooner we get past internal recriminations and back to fighting united, the better off we all are — the likelier our victory next November.

Rhetorical pleas against infighting are always begging the question about who's actually on the same side as you.

@profgalloway.com today thought spoke how a Muslim candidate couldn’t get your vote since he wasn’t kind enough to Israel. Yet spoke softly about the old handsy guy as if he might get your vote, because just a victim of Me 2. Just wonder if the guy who hates New York Muslims would get your vote?

Justin Baragona@justinbaragona.bsky.social

So here's Andrew Cuomo reacting to Maria Bartiromo wondering if Mamdani will "change the look of New York" and have Muslim women "completely covered up," telling her that Mamdani "doesn't understand New York culture" because he has "dual citizenship" and "he's a citizen of Uganda."

House Republicans are refusing to seat Dem Adelita Grijalva, who won a special election more than a week ago. She's the last signature needed to force a vote on the Epstein files. The soonest the GOP will act is Oct. 7. In three prior specials this year, the winners were all sworn in a day later.
