CALL ERIC SWALWELL AND TELL HIM TO APOLOGIZE TO ZOHRAN MAMDANI AND HIS CONSTITUENTS FOR LYING

What a lot of centrists dont realize is that a lot of us supported them to keep the GOP fascism dam from breaking, but now that the GOP is essentially ripping every institution apart in the name of fascism, there is very little incentive for us to support them over their more radical counter-parts.

i want to go to there

I just love how baby #elephants have no understanding of how absolutely massive they are so they just behave like big #dog. ♥️

It's incredible that neither the president nor VP was here. The politicization of all facets of American life is coming from the White House. No other American president would have failed to pay their respects. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...

The Oscar-winning documentary THE TIMES OF HARVEY MILK (1984) is on Criterion Channel and HBO Max if you'd like to remember a man some people would like you to forget. #Pride #HarveyMilk #Streaming

“Independence day is canceled because of fear of secret police raids” is really a level of on the nose political symbolism you just can’t make up.

This is nonsense! LEVERAGE was about a furious ex-Catholic Irishman from Boston working with a staff of eclectic malcontents to express his raging hatred against rich people who bully and abuse less … powerful … Ah.

Our cat Biscuit had his grooming appt today and they sent us his report card but I think I'm just going to use it as my bio

"The continued vitality of literally scores of decisions must be understood to depend on nothing more than the proclivities of the individuals who now comprise a majority of this Court."--Thurgood Marshall

hey remember when a rich ceo died then when they caught the suspect they made a circus of it like they found osama bin laden and charged him with terrorism but less than weeks ago two democrat lawmakers and their spouses were shot as literal assassination to shift control and everyone already forgot

never forget that mamdani’s campaign started to surge after calling tom homan a bitch to his face

Rewatched terminator 2 last night. Fun movie about AI leading to nuclear war and how the easiest way to kill someone is to dress up like a cop. Can't say its themes resonate today.

This is also the woo-woo bullshit that cost Ananda Lewis her life.

When the news says “we” bombed Iran.

Getting words on the page is easy. You sit down, you type. Bam! Words. It's finding the RIGHT words that can be hard. That's the trick of it. The secret is that sometimes the right words don't appear until after you write the wrong ones. So write the wrong ones. You'll find the right ones in there.

Clinton is a goddamn nightmare but the fact that former presidents (and other prominent former Dem politicians) ROUTINELY stay quiet on absolute horrors being done by the administration because of decorum but will pop up to shut down progressives really gives up the whole game.

A Dem lawmaker and her husband were killed by a guy for their political views and it’s already out of the news.

that FACE!

i’m not one to say i told you so, butteruh… the lil’ titty baby proved me right.

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people: 1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money 3) We won’t need a lot of troops 4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq 5) We’ll find WMDs 6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators 7) It will be easy 8) It won’t take long All lies.

Trying to explain to my former Gen Z intern what the second Iraq War was like (he was 1 when it started), and honestly: Just know that every war in my lifetime has been started by a Republican president. Please remember that, no matter what bucket of lies the GOP tries to sell you, younger voters.

They have made the world living hell for no reason whatsoever. People will ask why this happened in a decade and there will be tremendous effort to make it more complicated than “they were evil, stupid, and bored”

Yet Luigi launched a thousand hand-wringing op-eds from the chattering class. Makes you think

They did the same thing after the Civil War.

Congress died the moment they allowed 147 insurrectionists to remain in office instead of expelling them and charging them with sedition. That’s just my opinion.

The hardest rule of Beltway journalism is that Republican public officials have no agency and bear no responsibility for choices fully within their discretion

Fuck 47 and every goosestepping motherfucker who voted for him, from the Hamptons to the Hillbillies. Y'all are embarrassments.

Not sure how greed, materialism, racism, and nationalism are connected? Just watch the way this administration tries to enforce racist, nationalist deportations while trying to keep the production and economic impact of immigrant workers.

Do not put shit on your social media, people.

If you or anyone you know is still considering ranking Andrew Cuomo for mayor, please read this piece from @rtraister.bsky.social - the NY Mag journalist who covered the sexual harassment allegations against him substack.com/home/post/p-...

These people are mindlessly voting on aesthetics to make their lives worse, and centrist Dem messaging is making it worse. "Republicans are right about immigrants and trans athletes" validates their mistaken beliefs; instead, say "Republicans are the ones making your lives worse through X, Y, Z."

It's almost like our law enforcement should identify themselves for a reason? (well, multiple reasons, but this sure as shit is one of them)

Same

Speaking of Jaws day...

Give him a minute, son. Bruce Springsteen needs to think about his entire life before he buys a new Chevy Camaro.

Happy 50th to the first summer blockbuster.

please stop posting actionable threats on the internet

They ripped him apart from his pregnant wife in her last trimester. They stole from him the birth of his baby boy Dean, his graduation ceremony, his first Father's Day. They detained him illegally for 104 days. But today, Mahmoud Khalil is FINALLY FREE. 🤍✊🏼

He sees you when you're sleeping. He knows when you're awake. He's only got a single ear And a hugely bitchy face OHHHHHH Better watch out Better not cry Better not shout Or you might die Knifey Claus is hunting you down.

"a lot of mainstream politicians act out of fear"
