The “liberal media” said this would happen.

Anyone else kind of annoyed by this outcome?? Good for democracy, no doubt. But where were these people 5 months ago? America is weird.

Ahhhhhh!! What an honor to be nominated alongside creators I genuinely admire. You deserve this, Kat!

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

The “DEI Content” purges are insane. Latest w/ @motherjones.com youtube.com/shorts/QbRJ7...

The ten Democrats who voted with Republicans to censure Rep. Al Green: Ami Bera Ed Case Jim Costa Laura Gillen Jim Himes Chrissy Houlahan Marcy Kaptur Jared Moskowitz Marie Gluesenkamp Perez Tom Suozzi clerk.house.gov/Votes/202562

🗣️🗣️🚨🚨 Are you thinking about running for public office? I’d love to hear from you.

Fully anticipate that a new crop of democratic candidates have been born tonight. Born of rage and disappoint. Expect competitive primaries.

Democrats are rowdy. Rep. Al Green removed.

Begging Black Republicans to explain how this is good for our grandparents. QUICKLY.

Omg?

What drives me crazy about the anti-DEI rhetoric is everyone wants to be judged on merit. But you can't be judged on merit if you can't even get in the door because you don't fit some prejudiced definition of who is capable and who isn't

The final episode of @joyannreid.bsky.social’s award-winning show, The ReidOut, starts in just a few minutes. Black folks aren’t happy about it. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Math is hard

When the Confederates were debating whether or not to conscript enslaved Black people into fighting for them during the civil war, Black folks met secretly and decided that if they got put them on the frontlines they’d just turn around and start shooting the rebels 🤣🤣🤣 Black people are funny

Even if this isn’t “corruption” (it is), it is deeply corrupted.

RFK had/has very real support from IRL people I’ve spoken to and I’ve concluded that Americans hate America as a country, but love America as their idea. Very little “us/we,” lots of “I/me.”

McConnell is doing the thing where republicans grow a very tiny bit of courage and compassion at the end of their political career. It’s boring to me.

SCOOP: Nancy Mace's so-called "victim hotline" isn't a hotline—it's a voicemail that nobody answers (@juliannemcshane.bsky.social called 3x).

The @karenhunter.bsky.social show welcomes Video Correspondent for Mother Jones; Webby Award-Winner, NABJ 2024 Salute to Excellence Winner, Filmmaker, Storyteller & Journalist: Garrison Hayes! @garrisonhayes.bsky.social #KarenRebels

@garrisonhayes.bsky.social listening to you on the Karen Hunter show!

I actually lost it right here.

GAME OVER.

It kind of feels like they’re telegraphing the three-peat just a little too much.

And another thing — the World Wide Web is virtually unusable outside of social media. Every website has 78 pop up banners and countdown videos in the bottom right corner. I click onto a webpage and I am inundated with garbage ads and cookie permissions and newsletter signups and and and and and and

Five times....they voted for it FIVE times 😭

The real questions is how much does the music industry hate Drake for the 13,000 voting members to award Kendrick for THAT song??? 🤣🤣🤣

I just heard @garrisonhayes.bsky.social say "white men do not have a monopoly on being qualified " Speak it brother.

"While a lot of Trump supporters see this stuff as a good thing, I can't help but wonder if that support is based on a lie." Mother Jones Video Correspondent @garrisonhayes.bsky.social dissects a challenging question in his new video: How did people vote for this?

remember stuff like this when they tell you that diversity means a lowering of standards

I think Pete has been telegraphing a run for this seat over the last year. Mentions living in Michigan… often!
