@hcrichardson.bsky.social While the poll numbers presented here are not good for Trump, that only half of the Americans surveyed are not saturated in coverage of Trump's corruption is a massive failure on the part of the mainstream media, and the success of his allies in social media.

@tressiemcphd.bsky.social 100% this piece. Ken Martin epitomizes the old, broken digital fundraising strategy, while Ben Wikler is the organizer. It was a disaster to choose Martin over Wikler. Why haven't the Dems changed horses? Wikler clearly wants the job.
Making an exception from my "no posting, only replies" policy to urge everyone who is wondering what the Tate brothers are about to read Heidi Blake's long article in the New Yorker. A judge in Florida is deciding whether to release them on bail, and I hope she's read it. @heidiblake.bsky.social
@talkingpointsmemo.com @eschatonblog.com @katz.theracket.news Not a surprise, but Jack Smith docs show that Kash Patel (FBI Director) and John Ratcliffe (CIA Director) were involved in J6 plotting. Cool, cool, cool.
@eschatonblog.com People should check out Jmail. h/t @carolecadwalla.bsky.social How to Survive the Broligarchy, broligarchy.substack.com. "Jmail ... shows you the emails as if you are Jeffrey Epstein logged into your own Gmail account and makes it so much easier to search than the DOJ site."
@eschatonblog.com It only took them 19 paragraphs to get to the significant part of the story. Trumpies now control the most influential social media platform.
When Trump bullies/bribes/threatens/blackmails the winner of this year's World Cup into giving him the trophy, will be believe that he was the star player or the coach of the team? At 5 years old, my son understood that stealing a trophy didn't make you the actual winner.

Denmark's Social Democrats held as proof of Pollingism's core thesis: take up what polls as "popular" & ignore or echo oppo on scapegoating. And, yes, this can win you battles but as Danes (& Dutch) show - it moves electorate toward oppo long term. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/n...

@eschatonblog.com In a NYTimes story about the Times of London being fooled by a fake Bill de Blasio impersonator, whom they quoted criticising Mamdani (despite the real BdB's outspoken support for him), they still manage to slip in this graf:

@joshtpm.bsky.social @roxanegay.bsky.social It's time for reporters, like this one at Politico, to stop asserting Epstein's suicide as fact. We now have 2:53 of excised jailhouse video and allegedly oversleeping guards to give us strong reasons to suspect he was murdered.
@katz.theracket.news If there was any use to Tapper’s dumb book, it would have been for it to come out before the Dems made the same mistake again. Oh well.

@shahanafrombk.bsky.social @bradlander.bsky.social Hello my NYC electeds (on Bluesky). How about a little pressure on the NYPD to charge some of the folks chanting "death to Arabs" while assaulting a woman and her police escort with hate crimes? Or do white folks in Brooklyn get a pass?
@bradlander.bsky.social @cmshahanahanif.bsky.social Seriously - can you imagine the reaction if these folks had been chanting "death to [fill in just about any other ethnicity/race/national origin]"? Why are we ok with roving gangs chanting "death to Arabs" as a boys-will-be-boys kind of thing?

Outside of Eric Adams, no single elected official has done more damage to NYC than New York’s #1 Nepo Baby, Andrew Cuomo. Here’s the proof 🧵
Breaking News: Former Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced that he would run for mayor of New York City, upending the race to unseat Eric Adams and setting up a comeback attempt three years after he resigned in disgrace.

@eschatonblog.com Wouldn't it be terrible if Tesla owners began to worry about their cars being (lightly) vandalized? If Tesla dealerships were routinely picketed, and also maybe (lightly) vandalized? Just terrible. Awful. Decline of civility in America, for sure.

@katz.theracket.news Re: the ADL's attempts turn Elon's Nazi salute into an "awkward gesture," two explanations: 1) ADL (erroneously) believes throwing in with the right is good for Israel. 2) ADL (again, erroneously) believes the route to Jewish safety runs through those in power. See below:
