It’s just so appalling and enraging how casual and commonplace this has become. I’m out of words.
RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

This was my closing statement. The GOP have held our general assembly for 15 years. People are pissed.
We have 19 days left. Last night I got to make my pitch for why I want to be the next state senator for NC District 25. Early voting started today. I’m doing this, because I believe in us. #southey4senate #ncpol

You want to talk about lessons learned? Fine But I'm not giving into the idea that it was the "excesses" of the movement to blame and not the highly visible and successful coordination of large segments of the US oligarchy and police state to crush said uprising

That it'll fail because they lack sufficient consolidation and centralized control does not make it trivial that the president of the United States is trying to steal elections and produce an illegitimate sham Congress. It is open rebellion against the Constitution and morally tantamount to treason.

This administration and Hegseth have abandoned our troops. We need to conduct oversight and ensure that our servicemembers have the support and resources they need. Hegseth should resign.

Here’s how the guys who “would have” perfectly controlled Covid are doing when given the opportunity to prove their real world abilities.
The CDC on Friday reported 4,588 measles cases in the U.S. as of October 22, up 178 from a week earlier, as the outbreak of the highly contagious disease continues. www.reuters.com/legal/litiga...

WSJ: The outrage of these New Mexicans trying to protect children from pornography and graphic violence. The very idea of it! Zuckerberg deserves free speech to spew all the self-destructive inanities he likes into the bedrooms of children under 16. This is the First Amendment as WSJ understands it.

I know it's gotten almost boring, it happens so frequently. But consider it when you're voting. Do you want to vote for people who support rape, domestic violence, and pedophilia? Do you want them in charge of things? Ask your relatives.
The Republican Party supports men who abuse women. Rape, domestic violence, pedophilia. All of it. Their candidates are in the news for it. And, of course, there's the head of the party, who has spoken proudly of assaulting women and has been adjudicated a rapist.

It's bleak that Serious News Outlets will tie themselves into knots writing headlines that obscure the horrors of a story while @people.com just waltzes in and calls it like it is.

Alex Gibney told me that everyone he knows at HBO says "MUSK" will stream there in January, and they are making concrete plans about how that will happen... so if it doesn't happen, you'll know that Musk's investment in Skydance was why here's the clip: youtu.be/LSCoQbiTR98?...

For harvesting olives. They should all be released immediately. To be clear: Palestinians face far worse consequences every day. These detentions by the IDF are one more attempt to undermine Palestinians’ right to harvest their olive groves, travel on their roads, and live in their homes.

The director of FEMA is not allowed to do this legally. The director of OMB is not allowed to do this legally. The President of the United States is not allowed to do this legally. They're a gang of criminals, and should suffer the consequences.
FEMA tells states: We're incompetent, hopelessly politicized, unable and willing to fulfill our statutory responsibilities. The take care clause of the constitution no longer exists. www.politico.com/news/2026/10...
