Republican claims that cuts to Medicaid are about reducing fraud are flat out wrong and they know it. Protecting Medicaid isn’t a partisan issue. We’ve had letters from Republicans in the Washington state legislature saying don’t make these cuts.

Even factoring in foreign policy, we had one of the most progressive presidents ever and he was met with nothing but derision, smears, outright lies, and sabotage by people who should be most supportive of his policies.

If I was in the Senate my first question to Howard Lutnick would be ‘so when you bought the townhouse next door to Jeffrey Epstein, in a deal brokered by Jeff’s own brother, how many times did you see Trump there and is that why you held a fundraiser for him there in May ‘19?’

White liberals are, by far, the weak link in the Democratic coalition. Not even close. I say this as someone who is a white liberal! But I do my best to avoid the political pathologies that mark too many in my demographic.

Joe Biden says he's started treatment for his prostate cancer and the prognosis is good. Donald Trump says Biden was executed in 2020 and was replaced with a legion of clones. For busy voters, it can be hard to know who to believe.

It's not just nerdy men. It's men who think their knowledge of anything is superior. I have been quizzed on everything from anime to sports, cigars, cars, etc. They see a woman enjoying the same things they enjoy, and its automatically a challenge. Zero social skills.

Psst early birds. Yes you, put down your toast, we have a mind blowing fact for you! 🤯 The oak trees used in the construction of the Undercroft were felled in 1358. The trees were likely to be 200 to 250 years old. Making them saplings within 50 years of the Norman Conquest!

Maryland prosecutor Aisha Braveboy made a great point on MSNBC: The reason Trump escaped from many of his felony charges and became president 3 months ago is ... due process. The right wing wants it for themselves, but not for the rest of us.

@sanders.senate.gov is going on a mansplaining tour, claiming he knows why @kamalaharris.com lost. What he won't tell you, because he's one of the biggest examples in America of toxic masculinity, is that this historic Black woman outran him in his home state he's represented for decades.

Want to say if any academic identified with the left who was even 1/4th as influential as Yarvin is said something as offensive as “put the church Blacks in charge of the ghetto Blacks,” it would lead the coverage and call for a round of soul-searching for everyone left of center.

When @bradtakei.bsky.social and I first got together, we never imagined we’d one day celebrate Pride openly, let alone post about it on the internet. But here we are, joy and all. Happy Pride, everyone! Let’s keep showing up, speaking out, and marching forward (glitter optional, but encouraged). 🌈✨

"Biden was old but governed normally. Trump governs erratically because he’s unglued. That’s the true cover-up, one the media is enabling when they seem more concerned with the mental condition of a former president than the escalating madness of the current one."

We can fight for immigrants AND for public safety. My district is proof: 40% born outside the U.S., and one of the wealthiest, safest in America. Voters want a secure border and safe communities—Democrats must deliver both.

Look, I was in SF when Harris was the DA. I was there when she became the AG. This bs about Harris being against the LGBTQ is bullshit. What started it was the fact that she was one of 40 AGs that went after Backpage to shut down trafficking of humans.
