Decades of sacrifice and work by generations of men and women across the globe up in smoke. Truly tragic. Tens of millions of American voters squandered the legacy of their parents and grandparents for the thrill of racism and “owning the libs.”

The other thing that burns my britches, and then I gotta go, is ppl STILL saying "this is why I wanted Bernie" (and I know talmbout Sanders here invites trolls like talmbout 47 over in the other place). Bernard is a large part of the reason so many ppl ignored the warnings from rank & file dems.

A lesson in how claims of meritocracy as justification for opposing DEI are often cover for the demand that we return to a system of preference for white men - whatever their qualifications. Fire a qualified Black man. Hire a statutorily unqualified white man. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

I'd like to point out that Bernie Sanders is currently selling tickets for a national book tour that has several events scheduled while the Senate will be in session, yet I'd bet a week's salary not a single one of these folks harassing Jefferies will say a goddamn word about it.

“RESIST. DO NOT COMPLY WITH THEIR ILLEGAL MANDATES.”Judge Ortiz emailed her EEOC colleagues after the anti-trans EO. She told me, “The unknown was not as scary as being complicit and not speaking up. I can exist on cornflakes and community at the end of the day if it means that my soul is intact.”

DOGE is getting a whole lot of headlines mainly because our brains aren't wired to make sense of millions, billions, or trillions of dollars. Lemme help: Math out the DOGE numbers and you'll discover that your DOGE dividend may buy you a coffee or two. The problem: There's just not that much waste.

Daily reminder that Trump created DOGE. It never existed before Trump. It wasn’t a thing. He made it all up. So anything DOGE does, Trump is responsible for. DOGE is Trump. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

the people showing up to republican town halls are far better at "resisting" than a single person protesting Democrats instead of republicans. a lot of supposed political experts on this app could learn from these nonpolitical folks how to do political action.

Mr. Hegseth has previously said that General Brown should be fired because of his “woke” focus on diversity, equity and inclusion programs in the military. Replaces a Black four-star fighter pilot with a white man who does not meet the statutory qualifications supposedly over DEI.

None of this has anything to do with effectiveness, or “lethality,” or promoting “warfighters," or any other buzzwords. It is praetorianism, plain and simple, and it is an assault on our military and our democracy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Elon Musk just moved ANOTHER $1 MILLION into Wisconsin’s Supreme Court race. That brings Musk’s spending on behalf of a right-wing takeover of the court to 2.5 MILLION over one week. This is a major intervention in state politics—and the fight for control of the judiciary—by the world’s richest man.

Republicans are cowardly little pissbabies. It has been a massive own goal for advocacy groups to not bother with targeting them for protests thus far.

Thinking again about Indivisible Brooklyn giving the excuse that they hadnt targeted Malliotakis for protests bc she wouldnt care if they did. It should be obvious now that GOP reps do in fact very much care about whether or not they get targeted for pushback & are likely to be easily rattled by it.
