Largish white dude. Not a fan of guns, forced birthers, or anti-vaxxers. Haven’t seen a sane republican since hw bush. And he kinda sucked.

Shellie Flockhart appeared in a $1M Republican super PAC ad accusing Democrat Sarah Trone Garriott of endangering children. Flockhart pleaded guilty to child endangerment and drunk driving in 2017 after driving intoxicated with her children, ages 8 and 11. Vote @sarahforiowa.bsky.social

No I do not have to take someone's opinion seriously if they have garbage opinions and have garbage beliefs. They should be hounded with shame for believing such things. Instead, they are coddled and told they are special.

The midterm elections are going so poorly for the president that some conservative commentators have said they may become Never Trump again.

lol of course they did

Look, I'm going to stick my dick into every electrical outlet I see. It's your job to make sure they have covers on them to stop me from doing this.

Breaking character: I hate to use this account for political strategizing but the ball needs to get rolling on this....when Dems take the House they've got to focus on impeaching Hegseth. He can be be blamed for the Iran war plus he's a drunk and a criminal.

Last month, we refurbished 10 tennis courts in Crotona Park — the only public tennis courts in the Bronx with lights for night play. We stopped by recently to see how things were going. Thank you to NYJTL, USTA and Yonex for helping us deliver high-quality public spaces that New Yorkers deserve.

I wrote about how Trump is treating presidential power like it's his own possession and using it to punish blue states — but also about how at least he's promised lots of cash for all of us. www.ctinsider.com/columnist/ar...

Just finished @lkatfield.bsky.social's superb _Furious Minds_. Nuanced & engaged deep exploration of the post-liberalism, theocratic lunacy, and (in a great and accurate phrasing) the "Schmittian filth" of the Trumpist intellectuals who are laboring to destroy democracy here.

The median voter is a bizarre combination of mutually exclusive ideas who pays absolutely no attention to politics. So.. neither?

freecialis@freecialis.bsky.social

which do you think is more true: that the median voter mostly agrees with dems but hates trans people, or that the median voter thinks dems are spineless and stand for nothing

Good thread. Lines up with my views on all of 9/11 and its repercussions pretty well

David Roberts@volts.wtf

Here's what I think about when I think back on 9/11. The attack happened on the watch of a Republican president who had been warned, repeatedly & explicitly, that an attack was coming. He dismissed those warnings.
