It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

While the governor of Oklahoma is on right-wing media every day glazing DOGE, domestic violence homicides in his state have hit a record high. Between all the pronoun-bashing and diversity-slashing Kevin Stitt does on TV, when does he have any time to address this crisis?

How the living fuck can you be an expert on fascism and not see that Chris Murphy has been fast tracking virtually all of Trump's nominations and giving unanimous consent on everything? You are literally falling for the fact he can say some tough words on TV? Jesus christ dude.

#BREAKING: #SCOTUS issues order holding "in abeyance" President Trump's application to let him fire Hampton Dellinger until next Wednesday (when the temporary restraining order keeping Dellinger in place expires). In other words, a significant (and short-lived) punt.

It’s been a long fucking day, I’m tired, and I misspoke. Let me rephrase it in a more correct way. Fuck Hakeem Jeffries and almost every other elected Democratic official for forcing me to be the one to get arrested instead of them doing their goddamn job and being leaders.

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social’s game couldn’t be clearer. He’s giving a speech to an empty chamber. Not going to note an absence of a quorum and force his Republican colleagues to show up. Gaslighting us all to the very end.

There’s never any plan but Democrats have done a great job of convincing people to withhold their criticisms because they think there’s a plan coming. There’s no plan.

They were never going to lower prices. They never cared about egg prices. It's the same lie as CRT. They want us chasing their bullshit while the real mission is to disassemble the government so the rich can get richer. They are on a mission to destroy it all. It's beyond a coup.

I read this Democratic Party "framework". It's not a framework. It's not a plan. If I came up with something like this at my job, I'd be fired. The Democratic party is doomed with leaders like this.

Asked about the head of Social Security resigning over Elon’s DOGE squad trying to get access to sensitive data — Trump immediately spins it into a lie that she was fired over unsubstantiated claims of massive amounts of fraud that have been resoundingly debunked.

Americans do not understand the incredible crisis consuming all components of their government at once. Thousands of jobs lost, projects on hold, desks unmanned, services stopped, basic safety neglected. Total chaos. Stuff is going to start breaking down, maybe catastrophically.

Democrats scheduled social media posts are so funny, always completely random, unrelated to what else is going on. Makes it seem like they are truly unaware of what's happening. It's 2025 and they're waiting to get the morning paper from a newsie on the corner on their way into the office.

RFK Jr. thinks that a clinical trial should be done for the entire childhood vaccine schedule. Here’s why that will never happen. 1. You can’t do a randomized trial of something that we already know is safe and effective. There would have to be a placebo group that didn’t get vaxxed. Unethical.
