It's fucking hilarious that the DSA keeps telling us they're on the rise and we have to actually pretend this is more than noise like your 5 year old telling you he's invisible

Peter Sterne@petersterne.com

NEW: DSA's National Political Committee passed two resolutions today aimed at Los Angeles mayoral candidate Nithya Raman, beginning processes that could result in DSA-LA being forced to rescind its endorsement of her this weekend and/or Raman herself being expelled from DSA by January.

“they were always like this” yes they were but they didn’t feel like they could say it out loud at a campaign rally and it was better when they didn’t feel like they could do this

It’s awful that Cenk Uygur would try to sink El-Sayed’s campaign like this. This was no good intention.

Jewish Insider@jewishinsider.com

Democratic Michigan Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed’s campaign disavowed an ad circulated by anti-Israel commentator Cenk Uygur and an affiliated PAC supporting El-Sayed, as the ad faced widespread condemnation over what critics said was a blatantly antisemitic message.

Yes. When this guy’s the primary funder of your campaign, it’s probably time to do a lot of self reflection abt what causes you are actually advancing.

Whether it's Republicans not being allowed within 200 feet of a Chuck E. Cheese or Democrats making jokes about a Cheesecake Factory, both side have a fraught relationship with chain restaurants.

We don't talk enough about how the Roberts Court slow-walked multiple executive privilege cases that were crucial to building the J6 case against Trump.

I think you can make the case that Eileen Canon is single-handedly responsible for Trump staying out of Federal prison in the docs case.

I Nied braaaaiiiiins 🧟@nied.bsky.social

That plus Eileen Canon's repeated fuckery are more responsible for Trump staying out of prison than anything Garland did.

I do think when historians look back the period the exact moment where it flipped and started going the other way won’t be anything any politician did but my Minneapolis neighbors weathering the worst of the regime in the streets, rallying together, fighting back, and winning

It is both very unlikely Trump will personally succeed at establishing a full-blown dictatorship before he's gone, and also the case that Trump's tenure in American politics has massively increased the chance this country will have a full-blown dictatorship at some point in the next 30 or 40 years.

NEWS --> Dems are planning novel ways to wield power of the purse against Trump's corrupt prosecutions of critics like Ilhan Omar if they win House. Reps Pramila Jayapal and Jamie Raskin tell me a range of aggressive tactics will be deployed. Details in my new piece: newrepublic.com/article/2171...

newrepublic.comTrump’s Vile Prosecution of Ilhan Omar Is About to Run Into a WallIf they retake the House, Democrats will have plenty of ways to act against Trump’s corrupt prosecutions. Pramila Jayapal and Jamie Raskin say they’re going to use them.

What’s remarkable here isn’t just the sentiment, which is obviously weird and depressing, but that a media trained executive who has been doing interviews for decades thought this was an anecdote that would land well.

Over 2,000 alumni from Vivek’s all-boys catholic high school in Cincinnati have signed and circulated a petition demanding that he pull the ad and issue a public apology for “ignoring the moral responsibilities” of his Jesuit education. I think he’s pretty cooked.

Anything built by humans can be dismantled by other humans. Even after victory, it's a constant fight to maintain what you've built. But maintenance work is unglamorous.

They think that revolution will allow them to be as ideologically stubborn as they want to be. That they won't have to make compromises with other factions in order to increase their numbers just like in elections. Politics will still exist. It'll just include more people shooting at them.

The fact that some of the chronically online left honestly think if there was some revolution or collapse would turn out in their favor is so frustrating. Have fun with disrupted or cut off supply lines and no energy for months or years. Im sure the sick will appreciate sacrificing themselves for u.

intelligence is knowing that if i ever looked up anything about Magyar, Lula, or any of the other election winners i would probably not be great fans of their politics wisdom is knowing it doesn't matter because defeating the global chud coalition is all that matters for the foreseeable future

Minutes after I agreed with Jibril’s reply here, I watched a report on ABC World News Tonight which begins with Trump calling AES a “jihadist Muslim brotherhood member” and the reporter following that lie by saying AES “insists he has no ties to terrorists.” Like, are you kidding me?

We fought a war over this. 1 of every 30 Americans died. And then we amended the Constitution to add “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States”

Lula is to my left. Magyar is to my right. And I don’t care in the slightest, because they are the candidates of democracy against autocracy.

If still debating whether Donald Trump or Elon Musk willfully crippled Ukraine's missile defense, helping to slay innocent civilians, you are a rube. If the U.S. President had no role, then an oligarch governs national security. If not, the U.S. President serves Russia. Both answers are mortifying.

The Cheesecake Factory “controversy” is nice because it’s a rerun of the exact kind of stupid shit we had to sit through every day of the Obama administration. Now Zoomers don’t have to feel left out of having their own Obama “controversy” to reference.

I admire Ryan Grim's commitment to giving every man guilty of sexual assault the benefit of the doubt about their sincerity if their politics vaguely aligns with his own increasingly incoherent beliefs.

They're fucking contract soldiers! They all voluntarily signed a dotted line. Russian law bars Putin from sending conscripts into foreign combat zones! He didn't even have the balls to send conscripts to fight in Kursk...RUSSIAN TERRITORY... that's why he brought in the North Koreans.
