"One encounters in these MAGA cultists a brazen unwillingness or inability to explain themselves. Their poverty of language indicates ... a poverty of ideas—of historical knowledge, moral imagination and much else." - Sam Harris #uspolitics

Hey there Scott Walker. I noticed you deleted this after learning that in fact the shooter was from the right. I don’t think it matters either way, violence is violence, so I’m waiting for you to tweet the same thing with corrected facts? Cuz you’re uh, to use your words, “being silent.”

Republican officials are like the uncle you're forced to see at Thanksgiving who thinks if he doesn't understand something, then it can't be true. The #GOP wins followers thru simplicity. www.nj.com/politics/202...

@democrats.org and speech makers: Just be sure to mention the small rural cities that are turning out, not just the big ones. We know big cities are usually liberal. It's the people outside those urban areas we need to reach and recognize. #uspolitics #demstrategy

Returned to X to fight disinformation and was fed a stream of videos of African Americans fighting plus an alternate universe in #uspolitics. I was astounded. The fomenting of hate and fear with false info is real. I lasted 5 mins before my 2nd deactivation. #Elon is psychotic. #stayoffx

@pelosi.house.gov: "On January 6th...we begged the president of the United States to send in the National Guard. He would not do it...And yet, in a contra-constitutional way, he has sent the National Guard into California. Something is very wrong with this picture."

The #LAprotests are peaceful. Trump is punishing for resisting him, nothing else. He's the dangerous element backed by the GOP. #uspolitics

More sneakiness from #Republican #Congress to protect themselves and limit courts' ability to enforce contempt orders "unless the party bringing the case gives a so-called security — or posts a bond." Who are they serving here? #voteblue #uspolitics

We let #insurance make medical care too expensive for those who cannot afford coverage. Now even @democrats.org like @governorwalz.mn.gov and @govgavinnewsom.bsky.social want to destroy the safety net - ensuring the GOP agenda is winning, caving to a vocal minority of Americans.
