When Trumpism dies (and it will) and it’s obituary is finally written, the most confounding part of this enterprise won’t be the cruelty, the sadism, the mendacity, the corruption or indeed, the profound evil of it all because we’ve seen that before. We expected it.

The rich are not opposed to fair taxation because they can’t afford it. They are opposed to it because they believe the rules that apply to everyone else should not apply to them. They abhor the idea that societal rules should constrain them. It’s the original exceptionalism.

Looks like Mayor Z's pied a terre tax is not collapsing the real estate market or causing the wealthy to flee Manhattan after all. Indeed, the opposite. Who could have possibly imagined this scenario? www.realtor.com/news/trends/...

John Roberts has somehow created a regal impunity, in a republic nonetheless influenced by British common law, stronger than that enjoyed by the British royals themselves. In-f’ing-credible.

If you have to buy a statement of innocence from a convicted child abuser, you are many things, but innocent is not one of them.

There are many on here who are not paying attention to the success Democrats are having across the country. Ignore them. Find a race. Support it. Help flip a seat. You can give directly to candidates. Or @charlesgaba.com has so many candidates to give to at blue26.org

Thought we should check in on the total list of legislative flips during Trump 2.0. The tally so far (including tonight): Democrats: 26 flips Republicans: 0 flips

In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

@schatz.bsky.social I am imploring you to vote NO on cloture. There is no discernible benefit to voting yes. We know republicans can’t be trusted. If they had any intention to compromise, they would have done so by now. Do not vote to neuter yourselves and lose our trust.

Basically what we are seeing is a group of about 30 million people vigorously agreeing with each other that everything is fine IT'S FINE and it includes literally everyone with power.

It should be very clear to every Senate Democrat that any vote for Cloture will also be considered a vote for the bill. People aren’t going to be tricked with procedural games. They know exactly what is going on. Defend Medicaid. Vote NO on Cloture. NO on bill.

🔥🔥🔥 I’m 80 years old. I decided to call #SocialSecurity “If you are calling about a disability application due to staffing reductions, our average processing time for disability applications is 200 to 230 days. The estimated hold time is greater than 120 minutes”

I don't need the Clintons, the Obamas, the Bidens, or the Harris/Emhoffs to tell me what to do now. They show us every time. Get back to work. Support orgs battling in the courts. Support candidates trying to win seats around the country. Organize. Protest. Donate. Inform yourself & educate others.

Barack came out of retirement in THREE straight presidential election cycles to tell y’all how to move and you ignored him twice. Explain to me why you’re demanding to hear from him now. He *literally* said “don’t boo, vote,” and y’all said “we don’t wanna.” TWICE.

It is quite literally up to the whites. 🤷🏾‍♀️

They implored all Americans to choose sanity over whatever the fuck this is, and yet 2/3 of the electorate either didn’t bother to vote or voted for the Russian asset. What difference do you think it’ll make to the 2/3 to hear from them now? Besides, the GOP can stop this madness anytime they want.

This is what principled leadership demands in the era of Trump/Musk! It’s a crying shame that they can’t recuperate at home in peace thanks to Republican toxicity.

This is a screenshot from x-Twitter. I no longer maintain an account there, but I thought you mIght want to see this. Rep. Brittany Pettersen is on maternity leave, but rushed to D.C. to cast her 'Nay' vote against the horrendous House budget anyway - WITH her newborn! #DontCutOurMedicaid

He fucked democracy and now he’s planning to retire. I guess his work here is done. I hope what’s left of his pathetic existence is one helping of karma after another.

It will be the gross stupidity of its standard bearer and how he managed to turn otherwise intelligent people into feckless lemmings. The idiot they had derided for decades literally waltzed in and said to the village “I’m chief” and the village went along with it.

The fact that Murdoch would rather settle should invite the scrutiny of the government. Also, the 30 pieces of silver one brother sold his integrity for seems cheap by comparison now, doesn’t it? Well done #princeharry #sussexsquad

BREAKING: Tim Walz's daughter Hope says that her "red flag" for dating a man is if he listens to Joe Rogan because it means he "probably isn’t a great person" and his "values" won't "align" with hers. This rule has "never failed" her and her friends. Like and share if you love this rule!
