Potatoes and butter have seen generations of my people through the cold and the dark. They were always there for us and they will always be there for you.

Embroider this on pillows and send them to all elected Dems.

It's really important to pay attention to the fact that Lula beat the fascist candidate not by compromising and trying to meet fascist voters in the middle, but by sticking to his guns, promising prosecutions for election interference, and mobilising his own voters to turn out in greater numbers.

“Nobody will ever deprive the American people of the right to vote except the American people themselves, and the only way they could do this is by not voting.” ~President Franklin D. Roosevelt, 1944. Image: FDR Presidential Library.

Lebron is such a jerk. He bashes a teammate in the face, causing a nose bleed, and just walks away- no apology, no recognition at all. It was his own teammate ffs

Can we talk about the number and size of the Tremfya ads on this NBA halftime show set? There are at least 3 giant ones that are larger than the people on screen, and larger than the logos for the teams or the NBA. It looks ridiculous.

A storm named Vance is forming, and the USS United States ship is set to be sunk, and the midterms are two weeks away. The writing is getting a bit heavy handed to say the least, and Olivia Pope is MIA.

Outstanding. More of this, please. Elon Musk is a white nationalist troll using the billions he made off government contracts to destroy this nation. Light. Him. Up.

Talarico: "We just found out that [Elon Musk] is almost single-handedly bankrolling this effort to install Ken Paxton in the U.S. Senate and defeat this movement...Elon Musk wants our land. He wants our water. He wants his very own personal United States senator. He is trying to buy Texas."

If every living member of a frat, including alumni, can make it a whole year without a single assault allegation against them, then they can apply for a permit to have one supervised afternoon gathering. No alcohol allowed.

Banning frat parties for the year is little more than a Band-Aid slapped over two and a half centuries of elevating rapists to the highest offices in the country www.jezebel.com/cornell-bans...

Ukrainian presidential advisor Serhiy Beskrestnov confirms Elon Musk's Space X crippled Ukrainian capabilities last night. In other words, the US deliberately sabotaged European defence operations mid-mission. Every country in the world should move away from buying American hardware ASAP.

There will be a lot of equivocating about all the times search warrants have been executed on members of Congress for corruption investigations and the like, and it can't be stressed enough in how many ways HSI raiding Ilhan Omar is extremely not like that.

I would love, absolutely love, at least one prominent contender for the Dem POTUS nomination in 2028 to start threatening this now. "Trump is right that lying on immigration forms is a serious offense. Here are the people my DOJ will investigate on Day 1: Musk, Melania, etc." Put fear in them NOW.

Kevin M. Kruse@kevinmkruse.bsky.social

Looking forward to the same scrutiny being impartially applied to Elon Musk and Melania Trump, whose immigration documents are much much worse than anything alleged about Omar's father

“In America—and, therefore in the rest of the world—unless you are a special case, consent isn’t on the menu.” One of the most concise distillations I’ve read yet about the Cornell rape case and its relationship to privilege in America today.

"When someone is gang-raped, there appears to be something to defend, and it’s not bodily autonomy; there appears to be something to protect, and it’s not the victim." Life in this predator's paradise and the problem of shameless people. www.the-reframe.com/the-good-guys/

I've spent a lot of time debunking claims that way overstate the migration impacts of wealth taxes. But fear not - if we put our minds to it, I do believe we can design a wealth tax high enough to get Elon to flee the country

This is sexual violence as a form of terrorism. It is political violence and it is chilling and horrific, and AOC was absolutely right to be terrified that the goons (now pardoned) laying siege to the capital would rape her if they found her. Small changes won't fix this. FLIP THE TABLE NOW

You guys want to hear a short but adorable story that happened right in front of me at the baggage claim in NYC yesterday? I wasn't part of it and there are bits I didn't catch but holy crap, I can't stop thinking about it.

born and raised in NY and have lived here for years, but I did not know this fact until today. tell your friends, make sure they know that until this changes, getting raped after you chose to have a beer means, legally, you were not raped.

Latest WSJ poll: "63% want to pause AI development 61% want a billionaire wealth tax 59% want Medicare for All 57% want a $20 minimum wage 58% want to end U.S. military aid to Israel" This is the center of the country politically. it is time all adjust to this political spectrum, esp. media.

1. On Tuesday morning, Trump unveiled America dot gov, which he described as “the ultimate product.” Right now, it is basically a chatbot that draws data from official government websites. As a result it is brutally efficient at debunking Trump’s lies.

Trying to figure out what I can wear to work tomorrow in case of subway flooding, and I’ve landed on a diy trash bag poncho & galoshes combo.

The style guide for all news publications should specify “only beardless photos of JD Vance are permitted”. Let’s not mask his demon cabbage patch kid face, the people must be told.

Vice President J.D. Vance will attend the Ohio State vs. Illinois football game on Saturday, and is expected on the field to sing "Carmen Ohio" with the team if they win. Franklin County Sheriff has requested $95K to supplement his security. Arrives on Friday.

I’m not just going to forget that Mitch McConnell went missing for three months, popped back up, and all both sides of the aisle did was post videos of people talking to him like he’s a 4yo toddler with a learning disability, before simply moving on. We’re owed an explanation.
