The rise of people like Lander and Walz, whose ideologies don't exactly match mine but have the exact right combination of "love thy neighbor" and "fuck you, asshole" attitudes, is massive positive for people who care about left of center politics

Zohran Mamdani’s win has inspired over 3400 young people to raise their hands to run for office just since Tuesday. It’s now @runforsomething.net’s biggest candidate recruitment moment since the election. A new generation of leaders is here.

To state the obvious, if AOC referred to Tuberville’s constituents as “trailer rats,” it would be treated as an epochal scandal for the Democratic Party, which would promptly disavow her.

I want every ICE agent identified & shunned for the rest of their lives by civil society. I want people to cross the street when they approach. I want restaurants to refuse them service. I want their families to think twice about being seen with them. I want them to die alone & sad.

1/ As we predicted on @openargs.bsky.social last month, the majority has found a way to complicate birthright citizenship in the US not by addressing the ridiculous originalist merits re: BC but w/new ridiculous originalist arguments re: injunctions podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t... Here's how:

Democrats in both chambers must unanimously commit to court expansion as their top priority. Until then, they're not a threat to fascism and aren't even a serious opposition. This is the mountain the Democratic Party and the republic will either climb all the way to the top -- or die on.

This is a travesty & a nightmare. The US was a founder of @gavi.org. It lowers global vaccine costs, has vaccinated 1B children, & averted 19M deaths. This pull out will cost 100s of thousands of children's lives a year - and RFK Jr will be personally responsible. www.politico.com/news/2025/06...

"cross-endorsement" is an awesome concept and is very strong evidence for why ranked choice voting gives the electorate much better options than first-past-the-post

We were very happy to give this scoop to @marisakabas.bsky.social's The Handbasket because it is important to support independent journalists who are doing the hard work at this time. Giving this story to Marisa also guarantees it will be in The Washington Post verbatim exactly 48 hours later.

We still have no idea who the ICE agents are. They could be insurrectionists, extremist militiamen or criminals themselves, chasing law-abiding citizens down the street for recording their kidnappings. The odds they aren't are low. Congress must raise hell about this. A masked gang runs our country.

I've said before that the thing that seems to work with normies is to point out the NYT position on trans people aligns with the fake hate organization with 200 members trying to pass itself off as the American Academy of Pediatrics - instead of the position of the 67,000 doctors in the real AAP.

As you read CATO's report on how 65% of the people ICE has detained committed no crime, remember that @padilla.senate.gov was asking why Kristi Noem always invoked the same 6 cases when Noem's goons assaulted him. That's why. www.cato.org/blog/65-peop...
