Centrists forgot how to stand up to tyranny from the Right and the Left. Centrists forgot how to debate, and how to run effective campaigns. Centrists forgot how to have principles, and be radical. Let's bring centrism back.

With all the talk of product shortages , I think it should be said that products will first find their way to densely populated areas first and everywhere else, last This certainly will hurt all those red counties. How they react to their shelves being everything will define the midterms

How far we've fallen from this Founding principle

If I was in Milwaukee I would be out there protesting ASAP

We often think about tariffs as merely increasing prices, which is certainly bad enough. But you can also think of them as forcing regression to a less prosperous time. @jacobgrier.bsky.social

MAGA 2016: "FUCK YOUR FEELINGS" MAGA 2020: "FUCK YOUR HEALTH" MAGA 2024: "FUCK YOUR FACTS" MAGA 2025: "FUCK YOUR ECONOMY, YOUR CONSTITUTION, YOUR HUMANITY, AND FUCK AMERICA TOO"

Here’s a satellite image of the El Salvadorian concentration camp that Trump urged President Bukele to expand yesterday—to be able to hold up to 200,000 US citizens. Since then, this image has reportedly been censored on Google Earth. Take a look. What do you see?

There are two kinds of libertarians: Those who oppose the state because they reject hierarchy and oppression, and view the state as the main tool for imposing both, and those who oppose the state because they support hierarchy and oppression and view the state as the main barrier to achieving both.

After Trump puts the world on fire with a massive trade war, he goes to play golf with his Saudi friends. Again. I like to say to my friends: Nero plays golf, while Rome burns. www.wsj.com/sports/golf/...

Let’s be clear; a lot of Biden economic policy sucked. Trade barriers were too high, there was too much focus on industrial policy and too little on innovation, he didn’t have the handle on inflation he pretended to, and the white collar job market blew. None of that is half the disaster Trump’s is.

I was knocking on doors for Josh Weil this past weekend. We didnt win, which sucks. But what sucks more is coming to bluesy and seeing that so many Democrats are still oblivious to what Americans need. Im real doomer mode right now.

Can we get some liberals to go on tour? Progressives always end up being the ones doing the leg work, motivating the base. Strong supporters of liberalism should be able to do that too.

“Musk transforms legitimate questions about his exercise of government authority into evidence of persecution. Accountability becomes conspiracy. Oversight becomes oppression. Democratic processes become threats to progress.”

I've tried to sketch out a very rough draft of impeachment articles, limiting them to the most essential and strongest counts, and I don't think I can get it under a half-dozen or so, each with a long litany of particulars. Just trying to articulate the sheer scope of this crime spree is daunting.

I am begging blue state governors to have lunch this week with your adjutant general of the National Guard. Cannot stress enough how important this relationship is going to be in the near future.

When I was young, it was taught to every school child that the Alien and Sedition Acts were a stain on the early republic, a grave error by the founding fathers, who allowed their worst instincts to override the principles of their own revolution. How can it all be forgotten so quickly?

These are e most important #s for the Dems. They should be tracking all local media and influencers in these states and reposting it everywhere The economic pain tariffs can indlict on red states need to be talked about more than anything else right now. It will flip voters.

Holy crap. The DOJ is arguing that the President can unilaterally deport anyone he wants without ANY statutory authority, just on his inherent authority as President over national security. That is a terrifying claim to make and not one that has ever been recognized before in US history.

You will feel the devastating impact of this administration for the rest of your life.

STATEMENT ON ZELENSKYY-TRUMP MEETING Read the full statement from our Executive Director @tylerharris.bsky.social 👇

THIS WAS A TRAP!! The Trump Admin purposefully dog piled on Zelensky to make him look unreasonable and unwilling for peace. The exact opposite is true. Be prepared for dark times ahead, America. We wouldn't do this unless we intended to do some bad things...

I can't think of anything like that obscene spectacle in the history of modern diplomacy, not just a snide remark or even mutual hostility, but openly belittling and insulting a visiting head of state in public like that? Astonishingly beyond the pale to treat any country's representative like that.

State governments should cut off all state and local cooperation with the FBI, and they should do it immediately. No law requires it, the Constitution fully empowers you to not even return their calls. But there is no legitimate purpose now in treating them as an acceptable partner for anything.

Musk, Trump, and the rest of MAGA always claimed Harris wasn't doing "tough" interviews. Has Musk done a single tough interview since taking over DOGE? I doubt he would ever take a tough interview.
