Huge follow-up reporting to my scoop: The Guardian confirmed America Next—the conservative nonprofit founded by Bobby Jindal that was offering students $ to disrupt El-Sayed events—paid a firm registered to Tommy Teepell’s dad Timmy $250k for “canvassing and influencer marketing” against El-Sayed.

This story is from a couple years ago, but it's exactly what will happen **under the colour of official policy** going forward under the new NHS guidance. We have also seen similar things in the USA for decades.

No corporation is gonna silence our message! ❌👑 Keep helping us amplify #NoKings today so we can drive HISTORIC early vote turnout, and overcome Trump’s election sabotage.

America, they are trying to desensitize you to violence. They want us to dehumanize one another so we become numb to their attacks on our liberty. They wish to normalize total state control thru visual terror. Attention is currency. Don’t invest it in evil. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Man who won’t give his employees piss breaks claims many piss breaks on the horizon

Today, I resigned as Vice Chair of the ODP Pride Caucus. The state party expects us to be a sales team, censoring our voices when we beg candidates not to trade on trans lives. I am still a Democrat, but I will not value party approval over true, defiant advocacy. Full text below. 👇

But refusing to acknowledge the problem isn't the same as a tactical disagreement. I've seen too many centrist Dems sneering with hatred at trans people who are angry and scared to see some prominent Dems taking up anti-trans arguments. But why shouldn't trans people be angry about that?

In Massachusetts, we have a responsibility to protect the vulnerable and stand up for those who need it. We don’t throw trans kids under the bus for political points. We protect them—and all of our neighbors—because trans rights are human rights.

This is such a great point. Democratic candidates throwing trans people under the bus will not get them votes from anyone on the right, left, or center. People on the right want R’s. People on the left are pissed. And this isn’t a real issue that matters to people in the middle.

I think about how everyone is sharing such wonderful stories and memories of Dolly Parton and think about how we all will react when It Happens and it makes me want to be a better person. I don’t want people to be glad when I’m gone.

What Dolly taught us is that it is in fact possible to be wealthy beyond your wildest dreams of avarice but still be a fundamentally good person with a strong moral compass, and the only reason more rich people aren't like that is because they don't want to be.

Tired of shitting yourself because the GOP's trying to steal votes? Here's info from a veteran. I live in the US capitol of ballot fraud! The good ol' NC-09. I've personally been hit by two (2) NATIONAL NEWS-level GOP attempts to steal elections. BOTH 👏 FAILED 👏 because we WORKED. Here's how.

the media when the centrist loses by 1% vs the media when the leftist loses by (less than) 1%

theres nothing we can do. we can nuke them, or we can invade. that's it. neither is doable. we cant safely lob munitions at them anymore because were running out of that. i think pretty soon if we even want to bomb them we're going to have to fly planes over them and we don't have the guts for that

That's what taxes are, man. That's the definition of taxes. "You are subsidizing things you might never use" man shut the fuck up. My taxes currently subsidize like oil company exec private jets, you think I'm upset at low-income people eating inexpensive bananas?

what a fucking asshole

Whenever i consider vaccine skepticism… i remember Scott Adams

You stupid motherfuckers

Sowwy we called out the fascist transphobes 👉👈 they have too much scawy fascist money for Amnesty International sowwy trannies you’re rights just too expensive

We also live in the age where mainstream Dem money won’t pay for oppo research or candidate development or capacity building but will shell out for an experimental AI campaign tool or some cloak and dagger bullshit that doesn’t work half as well as just talking to people like a normal person would

Calling Tribal governments “activists” is an attempt to undermine tribal sovereignty. Tribal nations are not outside interest groups, they are sovereign governments with a nation-to-nation relationship with the United States.

One last thing: I often see people saying things like ‘never talk to the police without a lawyer’ and a lot of people don’t have lawyers and are like, what should I do? The answer is that you should not talk to the police at all.

I know the ratio on this is already ridiculous but I was still thinking about it when I got up this morning. We're not your resources. We're not your volunteers. You're the ones constantly asking for OUR money even though most of us have so little. We'll keep primarying anyone who doesn't get that

For my newsletter I wrote about how Kier Starmer should serve as a warning for centrist Democrats in the US. It's a real crystal ball moment. www.burnsnotice.com/its-the-cent...

it is frustrating to see calls for a general strike when people having no understanding that there isn’t a lot of power in that if people don’t belong to some sort of organizing home. you need a way for people to have collective power for more than a day.

i think boarding school teenage masculinity is a part of masculinity but not of manhood. we have to get away from the concept of the opposite of "man" being "woman." the opposite of "man" is "boy"
