Idea: what if Democrats did a daily briefing led by Stacey Abrams and @petebuttigieg.bsky.social and all the news outlets and wires, including @apnews.com, were invited.

I suppose the thought was there is a symmetry for the 1st baby born on #EastEnders in 1985 to die on #EastEnders40 in 2025. As much as I hate that Martin was killed off, I can appreciate how brilliant that episode was💔💜 BRAVO @bbceastenders! #TogetherAgain

❤️For Valentine’s Day, here's a brilliant Philippe Halsman portrait where he caught Picasso in a contemplative mood, as he tried to understand why none of his exes sent him a Valentine. I'm thinking this is why: tinyurl.com/4ttmx6zr 💜Hopefully you have a better #ValentinesDay than poor Pablo here.😂

This is completely illegal. The reason it is being permitted is that the press refuses to say it is illegal, only describing it as contested.

The United States is under attack. Elon Musk—who has been elected to nothing and is a deeply troubled person—is literally destroying our government from the inside and doing so without authority or consent of the governed. Working on a report on this right now. It’s an emergency.

We grow up with the unacceptable, and accommodation becomes a tool we use to make our lives easier. Accommodating the unacceptable is often easier than doing the right thing. Eventually, we use it to let ourselves off the hook, because that’s easier, too. www.marytrump.org/p/there-is-n...
