FUN FACT: When Colin Kaepernick was talking about not voting for Hilary because her and Trump were the same Jay Z was performing at a GOTV rally with Hilary the weekend before the election.

NEW: The group behind Cornel West's 2024 ballot push was wholly funded through Elon Musk's dark money network, according to Sludge's review of tax documents. readsludge.com/2026/10/26/m...

Watching Lula defeat Flavio Boslonaro is like if we'd imprisoned Trump after January 6 and then Joe Biden defeated Donald Trump Jr in 2024.

This is how you defeat MAGA: You don’t aim for the top. You pluck off the bottom. Any local business hosting Ramasmarmy needs to be boycotted and shut down. Other businesses who don’t want to be boycotted and shut down will stop supporting him. It’s what Iran is doing in the Middle East, too:

The late great RICHARD HARRIS — who left us 24yrs ago today, aged 72 — on ‘The Tonight Show With Johnny Carson’ in 1992 with a great story about getting sweet revenge on an asshole Actor in a production of ‘Macbeth’.

White Americans as a whole decided they didn’t want democracy when non-White people started getting elected democratically. The United States as we knew it died in 2009. It’s been a fast slide to authoritarianism (on BOTH sides) since then. It is what it is.

A generation of young men helped destroy democracy and instead of admitting fault and helping to put it back together, they're like "fuck it, not our problem." A generation of self-absorbed nihilistic pieces of shit.

Again, if Kamala Harris is such a terrible candidate that we obviously can't nominate her again then she won't get through the primary. But if your demand is that she not enter the race, you don't actually believe she's a terrible candidate, you're just afraid she'll win.

Black-owned banks, critical to Black economic power, face decline w/ fewer than 50 left. Supporting Black banks like Citizens Trust & Carver Federal helps bridge the racial wealth gap. Black banks provide essential financial services. | Danyale Freeman www.ebony.com/black-banks-... #BlackskyNews

my hot take on AES is that an underrated reason for his struggles has been that his public persona is pretty clearly and deliberately 'kind of an asshole', which plays extremely well with people who already like him and fairly poorly with everyone else

Something interesting is happening on IG. I'm finally seeing a bunch of young Black ppl see the anti-Black racism in the so-called "Pro-Palestinian" movement. Calling MVP Kamala Harris "a dog" & doubling, quadrupling down on it along with other anti-Black statements seems to be waking them up.

The problem is most Americans don't want people who are "undeserving" of public services to get said services so they are willing for *everyone* to go without public services so the "undeserving" don't get it too:

Since returning to Everton, David Moyes has picked up 90 league points from 63 games. That's the sixth-best return for any manager in the English top flight. In that same period, Everton rank 16th for money spent on new players. He's - once again - doing a VERY impressive job.

How much early insane AEW lore do the newer fans know? Shanna trying to shoot on Leyla Hirsch (presumably because Hirsch is a Jewish lesbian and Shanna is a shoot Nazi) and failing miserably? Darius Lockhart's USB thumb drive? BALD ASSHOLES? The invoice? The Sadie Gibbs-Bea Priestley fistfight?

Rachael M. Bade has been so sycophantic towards Trump—and so generous to Katie Zacharia—that it seems like she’s auditioning for the role of press secretary.

Tom Morello’s bitchass said stopping the white supremacist agenda of Project 2025 wasn’t enough for him to vote. This is exactly why Marxist MAGA logic is inherently white supremacist and just as terrible as standard MAGA

Reminder that Dems likely need 52 to accommodate for Fetterman’s disloyalty.

Daniel Drezner@dandrezner.bsky.social

Based on recent polling the true toss-ups would be Maine, Ohio, Iowa, Texas, Kansas, Alaska, and Nebraska. If Democrats win three of those seats they’d have a 51-49 majority.

Yep.

They think the brown person on the other side of the world is more important than the brown person next door. A refugee is a perfect victim: they're only on TV and can never argue with you. But local poverty is messy and some of the people might be rude...so nah, let's not help THEM.

LOL Trump said "Watcha gonna do about it? NOTHING!" I hope he knocks down the Kennedy Center next. Americans need to see and feel the destruction their silly asses have brought.

They brought it on themselves. More to the point, their own people brought it to their doorstep. I’ve never seen a group that got a foot in the door & then decided it was their obligation to close the door behind so others couldn’t get in.
