I know I've posted this many times - needs to flood the media until election day.

I don't know about you, but I'm for Dems running as an alternative to MAGA and Trump and opponents of MAGA and Trump rather than as a version of the Dems that helped pave the way for MAGA and Trump.

Narco Marco is TEMU Kissinger! The difference is that Henry Kissinger was an evil, intelligent, competent, and effective operator. Marco is a mediocre, spineless douche who has no fucking clue what the fuck he's doing, even though he thinks he does.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani on Jon Stewart and 'The Daily Show': “People have turned to him not just because he’s funny, but because he speaks plainly about who’s being failed and who’s responsible, and he does it with a deep, unwavering empathy"

The Defense Dept. has a rule: Only U.S. citizens or permanent residents can handle sensitive data. Then Microsoft created a workaround that seemed to violate the spirit of this rule, leaving computer systems vulnerable to Chinese government sabotage:

Your daily reminder. Like a Soviet commissar, Russell Vought wants to take over ALL federal grant-making from Meals on Wheels to cancer research. We can stop him. But it means everyone taking action. Write to your members of Congress today. actionnetwork.org/letters/oppo...

They tell us that ICE is about immigration. The southern border. Bullshit. It is about weaponizing our government against our constitution. Normalizing the use of paramilitary force on our streets in ways that we stop questioning it. Abolish ICE.

If you don’t like what you’re seeing at Delaney Hall, pay attention to what’s happening in Congress this week.   We must stop giving ICE and for-profit companies like GEO Group a blank check to create chaos.

Facts for the big beautiful bill :

RFK Jr. pushed cod liver oil as a measles treatment—now Texas children are hospitalized with liver damage. Utah has 583 measles cases. The MMR vaccine is 97% effective. Kennedy runs U.S. public health. Three people died last year. This is the cost of pseudoscience. Scientific research saves lives.

Provocation is not a complex form of politics. Let’s not imagine Trump is not smart enough to have thought of this. He is. And exploiting a wartime incident to try to seize total power is normal tyrannical behavior. It’s on us not to dodge that historical fact. (3/17)

Why is Trump so enthusiastic about destroying Iranian civilian infrastructure? It won’t win the war. It is likely for another reason: to provoke an Iranian response that Trump can use for his own purposes. (2/17)

Given Trump’s Easter threats to carry out new war crimes in Iran, we should think one or two steps ahead about a coup attempt connected to the war. And then deter it. (1/17)

America first is letting foreign companies come into the US to mine copper?

Google could be sharing YOUR user data with Target and Walmart. And what could those companies do with it? Jack up prices based on your search and chat history. I'm pressing Google to come clean and tell users how their data is being used.

If the U.S. wants people to eat healthier the things that would probably help most are a living wage and affordable housing.

Four generations of my family have served our country. Service is in my blood. The President wouldn’t know anything about that.

In case you needed even more motivation to vote in the Midterm elections... #AccountabilityIsComing

“Your costs are up… tariffs are raising prices…”

Have you ever wondered why 13-year-old Donald Trump was sent to military boarding school? Because he was not invited prep school for thee next year. Trump was his elite prep school's resident bully who beat-up, terrorized and tortured boys who were smaller, smarter and younger than he was.

Amazing story, state legislator and Turning Points USA leader who crusaded against bogus voter fraud claims pleads guilty to attempted election fraud. azmirror.com/briefs/turni...

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

“When I win, I will immediately bring prices down, starting on Day One"

Federal agents in Chicago's Little Village blasted a 1-year-old girl with pepper spray, leaving her gasping for air in horrifying video footage. #PoliceBrutality

Mike Johnson: ‘My Christian Faith Is More About Not Jacking Off Than Feeding The Poor’

Hey @nytimes.com, did you change your headline, and change "Islamophobic attacks" on Mamdani to just "attacks," because Elise Stefanik and the GOP bullied you into it? Really? Why are they no longer Islamophobic attacks, as your headline originally and correctly stated?

“It’s too late for preventative antifascism. I think we’re in a new era.” After death threats for his work on antifascism, a Rutgers University professor fled the United States. The latest from @schuylermitchell.bsky.social:

TERRORISM EXPERT HERE: This statement is a clear example of what is known as “State Terrorism”: When the dictatorship will order all instruments of its state security & intelligence apparatus against its own citizens to terrorize the population.

David Letterman is right: you can't appease a tyrant.

I read 1984. And Fahrenheit 451. And A Brave New World. And The Handmaid‘s Tale. And The Giver. And The Road. And The Lottery. And The Parable of the Sower. And The Hunger Games. I know what I’m seeing.
