I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

I don't know if this is related to being over 40, but my favourite new thing is just saying no to things that people ask me to do.

Your kids get a max of two toys and then grow up to work in the same factory as their father and grandfather screwing in tiny screws. It’s called The American Dream.

it's a bit grim but i think most people probably have a mental "things to do if i have 24 hours to live" list and i would guess approximately zero people in the world have "meet JD vance" on theirs

1/ I wonder if there's a complement to Mettler's _Submerged State_ thesis: the successful state thesis. In brief: American government has in many ways been so successful for so long that Americans have forgotten why they need it, making anti-government rhetoric more appealing.

Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act. With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave. Tell them: 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill. Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it. TODAY is the showdown. 🤳🏽: (202) 224-3121

Listen this IS in fact how it’s done. Georgetown Law Dean William Treanor responds to Acting U.S. Atty Ed Martin’s threat to refuse to hire Georgetown graduates who have taken “DEI” courses in their curriculum. Treanor is a brilliant lawyer & constitutional scholar. Embarrassing for Martin.

Not being able to talk to a real person at the Social Security Administration when you need help or your local office closing due to staffing cuts is a benefit cut—point blank. Elon needs to get his hands OFF Social Security. Repost if you agree. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Every American citizen has a responsibility to resist Trump but way too many of us have convinced ourselves the leaders of the Democratic Party are the only ones who are supposed to fight.

old Soviet joke for our times: Guy stops by the newsstand every day, scans the front page, doesn’t buy the paper. One day the vendor asks what he’s up to. Guy says: “looking for an obituary.” Vendor says “those are towards the back of the paper, comrade.” Guy says: “not the one I’m looking for.”

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

Not to get all "parenthood changes your whole perspective," but I do think becoming a dad has made me even less tolerant of Bluesky's doomer brigade. I'm completely uninterested in having depressive strangers lecture me about how my daughter's future is written and there's nothing we can do.
