🎶Sounds like someone's getting primaried. 🎶

Literally zero men in this picture are named Zohran.

Bezos is so afraid of Mamdani he’s trying to intimidate a new generation of leaders from raising his taxes.

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.

Hmm. Where have I seen that in the New York Times before...

UPDATE: Trump is back to saying farms and hotels will be given a pass for undocumented workers The flip-flopping cruelty circus continues 🎪 (“I’m on both sides” 🤔) Maria Bartiromo wonders if execution of his Gestapo raids were “a little clumsy” — understatement of the year

Mullin is pretty much fully in the "If he agrees with me, he's the best guy ever, and if he doesn't, he's an idiot who doesn't know what he's talking about" Trumpian camp, past statements be damned.

WE MADE IT TO 94% FUNDED!!! I cannot be more thankful to those donating, we smashed our last goal which means Soko and I have to pick a FNAF/Horror game to play and beat it. All that’s left is the last $500 or so with taxes/fees. We can push that last 6%!!! [ #fundraiser | #helpsky | #Throne ]

BIG news on Medicaid in mega-bill 👇

Welcome back to #StatsSunday — your statistical fix, pulled from this week’s stories. Read this stat’s story here: reasonstobecheerful.world/kids-learnin...

Proposing anything that feels Canadian or European—such as free healthcare and affordable housing—is “communist” here in the U.S.

WATCH: Sen Mullin dismisses elon musk’s criticism and says #TrumpsTrillionsTransfer is actually popular (it isn’t)

Hundreds of billion in tax cuts for the rich? Not on the Senate Parliamentarian's watch. @ddayen.bsky.social on a big beautiful blunder for Senate Republicans. https://trib.al/e2vw8Bg

"I am strongly opposed to this bill that I'm voting into law." bsky.app/profile/junl...

Call your senators asap. (You can do so via 5calls.org ) and ask them to support Senator Blackburn’s AI amendment! We only need 4 GOP senators and all Dems senators to stop this abomination (amongst many other abominations within that terrible bill)! Let’s go get em!

Democrats have been asked to disavow Zohran more than Republicans have been asked to disavow the guy who murdered two Democrats. Says a lot about how profoundly fucked up our political and media situation is right now.

The ~$70 billion for ICE will create a massive secret police army complete with a giant new prison/concentration camp system.

Someone tell this dumbfuck you either embrace naked power in the service of fascism and shrug off the criticism, OR you get to whine about "harsh words" targeting judges. You don't get to do both, dipshit, and you made your choice. apnews.com/article/supr...

Stunning how media has turned passage of the Abominable Bill into a will they-or-won't they romcom with a July 4th deadline for Cinderella to kiss the prince, rather than a situation in which multiple members of Congress say they're terrified they or their families will be killed if they cross Trump

Indeed. This is of course not the first time that we've seen words from a Democrat blatantly misrepresented to claim anti-Semitism, but this time other Democrats are leading the charge. Multiple Dem members of Congress are brazenly lying about this. They're burning down our own party, and for what?

when people vote for a guy who had dinner with two nazis, called white supremacists "very fine people," and promises to hunt down immigrants en masse, it's because of economic anxiety. when they vote for a guy who wants to make rent and food more affordable, it's because they are anti-semitic.

republicans operate according to a moral economy where wealthy oligarchs and polluters deserve the collected prosperity of the nation because of their wealth. the job of the rest of us is to toil for their benefit.

GOP: Let's kill all the [insert minority group here] Dems: Well, let's just hear them out out on this Mamdani: Let's ensure people have access to food and shelter Dems: We must destroy this man

Every political reporter in the country understood that if Republicans won a trifecta, the upshot would be what happened today: huge cuts to healthcare to pay for tax cuts for the rich. Yet they consistently reported the biggest issue at play in the election as "high prices." Why?

Don't know why but i got the urge to draw Ed Edd n Eddy fanart...Time skip edition! lol

For those unaware, "bean mouths" are a term linked to a term called "CalArts style," which has actually NO connection to CalArts graduates and was coined by former animator and rapist John K. to criticize artists who opted to Disney's style. And NOBODY really knows how they got connected.

I mean, look, if Mamdani actually had invented time travel, went back in time and invented Twitter so it existed six years before it was created, to tweet about something that happened when he was 9 yeas old, with a picture of him at age 33, well... then maybe it's something to talk about...

they're running the anti-corbyn playbook on mamdani

Stealing from the poor, giving to the rich, at a time when inequality is already at record levels. Inequality is the thing that holds us back most — and this Republican bill exacerbates it. (Again) #TrumpsTrillionsTransfer

Didn’t House Speaker Mike Johnson rule out doing this?

Sen @jeffyarbro.bsky.social shares an article sounding the🚨about “constitutional failure” “constitutional crisis no longer describes our collapsing system- we live in an era of constitutional failure..relevant institutions can’t fulfill their responsibilities.” washingtonmonthly.com/2025/06/27/i...

Folks. Store these examples away for when Republicans disingenously trot out, "Voter ID. What's Not to Like?"

Hawley gets more credit as a "pro-worker populist" for musing about maybe not gutting Medicaid and Social Security this time around every few years before doing it anyways than every single Democratic senator combined does for actually supporting them.

If you have a Democratic senator, please call them as soon as you can & tell them to both raise a point of order on & then vote against the inclusion of the trans healthcare ban in the budget reconciliation bill. Remind them that likely dem voters want eleceteds who actually *fight* for what's right

⚡️ HUFF POST: “Several key Republican holdouts voted to advance the $4 trillion package that includes tax cuts for the mostly wealthy as well as major cuts to safety net programs…” (@MarshaBlackburn & @SenatorHagerty did not hesitate) www.huffpost.com/entry/big-be...

NOTE TO SELF: Next time google “what does this political party believe” before giving them $277 million

Reminder: They’re afraid of Zohran because he’s better at this than they are. He is putting the people first, and it reminds them of their own failings.

CALLING YOUR REPS WORKS Don’t you dare say “oh they’re GOP they don’t care” the most important thing to know about a politician without principles is that they’re cowards. Bad politicians are fundamentally afraid of losing their jobs. As constituents, it’s our job to remind them they answer to us.

It’s International Sex Worker’s Day! 👠 MintStars was built because we were fed up with the discrimination, the financial bans, the stolen labor. Every day, we stand with SW — because you deserve safety, dignity, and the right to thrive. Sex work rights are human rights. 💚

Just now: disabled Tesla with manufacturer plates on Barton Springs Drive in South Austin, apparently hit from behind. Another Tesla on manufacturer plates is on the scene with responding officers. No idea what happened, was literally just walking by. Stay safe Austin!

I'm OK with Democrats going on Fox News to counter misinformation and debate the conservative hosts or moderators. Going on Fox News to slam another Democrat should get you stripped of your committee assignments and DCCC funding.

Speaking of USAID:

At the same time, Project 2025 foretold this. Like, we did have a decent heads up??

I genuinely cannot believe how many Democrats are spending their energy on destroying Mamdani when the GOP is trying to turn ICE into a full on secret police by drastically raising their budget

The Trump admin in a nutshell; in order to justify their own mistake, they’re going to release a violent felon with five deportations so he can testify against the guy with no criminal record they mistakenly deported. In other words, the story is always more important than the principle.
