Dems should be putting out ads about this rubber-meets-the-road stuff right now so the connection locks in in people's minds. Can't just assume they will follow cause and effect by 2026.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

Elon’s busy schedule today is claiming astronauts were left in the ISS for political reasons, getting corrected by an ISS astronaut, throwing a fit where he calls the astronaut a slur, then complaining that we should deorbit the ISS

Putting a face to what you read in the news. Until last Friday, I served our nation working as a Research Ecologist with the US Geological Survey (USGS). As a federal scientist, I provided robust, defensible information to support good decisions in natural resource management.

NEW: Last year, @johnnyryan.bsky.social made a website for a fake company using a photo of Russian soldiers to purposely elicit suspicion. A US data broker offered him access to thousands of lists of American devices anyway. Many lists targeted US leaders and defense contractors. Our latest:

If you’re going to avoid saying Trump lies because you can’t prove his state of mind, you should also avoid saying he’s just trolling when you can’t prove that state of mind.

This. I'm actually not opposed to a coordinated campaign to primary Democrats who are politically not ready for this moment. It doesn't have to be a left-moderate thing, either. But get the fighters in. And get younger members in.

Look, man. Start every speech and post and meeting with "First, no king." Then say "no king" at least three times in every speech, regardless of subject. Then end with "no king". This ain't hard.

Democrats, here’s your chance. Turn USAID into a rallying cry instead of a pinch point. Make it their Benghazi, redefine it in the media (rightly) as the moment they endangered our people for their gain. HAMMER THEM RELENTLESSLY

Having a Jared Fogel cameo has aged better than Donald Trump and Elon Musk hosting, Lorne. #SNL50

Really hoping #SNL50 also pays tribute to everyone who auditioned, didn't get hired, then went on to become famous anyway.
