Resistance libs taking the murder is wrong stance on Luigi while championing a genocide and a party that puts up no opposition to the current admin. Great morals dummies.

There is no scenario where neoliberal Democrats control the Democratic Party and the party regains popularity to dominate electorally nationwide. Progressive populism. That’s the only path for the Democrats.

Democrats should all start making the jerk off motion when asked about anything Trump-related, just to see how it gets described. “Controversial gesture that suggests self-pleasuring”

Who is ready to bring it?

He nails it.

He should get the Romanov ending he deserves for trying to be Tsar here then. Him and his children.

MUST WATCH: Wisconsin showed up to demand answers from republican Glenn Grothman about Trump and Elon’s fraud, Social Security cuts, and abuse of power. His response? He ignored them and praised Trump for ending birthright citizenship. The crowd BOOED him into the ground.

Democrats are fundamentally misunderstanding the moment: We're not asking them to be *legislators* right now. We need them to be *politicians.* There's nothing to be done about the legislative situation. They're right about that. But there's PLENTY to be done as politicians.

let me say that this is the classic “just asking questions” approach to delegitimizing the achievements of black people. and critically, you don’t even have to be a black person who talks about race. simply being black to these people means you are “obsessed with race.”

the most annoying thing about Thomas chatterton williams is that he only really exists because the atlantic is desperate for someone like him to exist. 1

For the first weeks, Americans seemed frozen, expecting institutions to do something. Americans were used to “checks and balances” and “guardrails” working. That didn’t happen. People realized that they had to take matters into their own hands. 👇

Please please please goad Musk into flying on one of his totally safe rockets.

I wrote about how particularly ridiculous it is that Senate Democrats, led by Dick Durbin, think the priority should be repealing Section 230 and undermining the very open internet we need more than ever right now. www.techdirt.com/2025/02/21/w...

Elon Musk looks like he smells like unwashed feet.

Trump has fired the chairman of the joint chiefs, Air Force Gen. CQ Brown, Jr., five months into a four year term, per WSJ. Brown was the first black officer to serve as chairman of the joint chiefs. www.wsj.com/politics/nat...

We're going to have to do this ourselves. No more lazy democracy or else you will just not have democracy anymore. The Founders warned you of that.

@teenvogue.com has more journalistic integrity than @nytimes.com 💅🏽

Elon Musk's super PAC donated $1 million to support conservative Wisconsin Supreme Court candidate Brad Schimel. Schimel's opponent, liberal candidate Susan Crawford, criticized the donation, alleging Schimel is being bought. I think — or hope! — Musk’s attempt to influence this race will backfire.

If Democrats want to regain working people, they must disavow Big Money. That starts with banning super PAC donations in Dem primaries. There’s no way the party can speak for the majority of working people in America if it's beholden to corporate interests.

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.

If "Immigrants didn't steal my job - the President did" is not the centerpiece of the Dems messaging from now on, this party cannot be helped.

Hakeem Jeffries earnestly believing that this is a great time for him to go on a book tour is how you know not nearly enough of these guys are reading the vibes on bluesky

I feel so sick. Enough with the lies, enough with the games. They know exactly what they're doing. This is a neo-Nazi movement. Proudly so. The only reason they've kept it coded up until now was to take advantage of those who didn't want to believe it. No more looking away. Face up to what it is.

Here's video of Steve Bannon doing a Sieg Heil today at CPAC. It is what it is and it's what Bannon intended. Don't let yourself be gaslit.

REMINDER: Cutting IRS spending is not a “cost-cutting” move. Cutting the IRS lowers revenue. It’s a move to protect the wealthy, like Elon Musk. Auditing the rich returns $12 for every $1 spent. www.nber.org/papers/w31376

There are moments in these deportation fights when I can just FEEL how pissed off they are that I’m Puerto Rican 😂 they want to threaten me with it so bad 😂

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

Occasionally, I'm asked why I'm not in politics despite my obvious interest in knowing what is happening in politics. My answer is: I won't lie or perform niceties or be polite to monsters. Politics is full of them. I've lived through enough trauma in my life to never want to play that game. Ever.

this is not universal but it is distressingly common among legacy media people. the idea that they have any duty to society or responsibility beyond getting clicks and clout is abhorrent to a sizable number of people at the top of this industry

Fear of a Jumaane Williams future is the strangest part of this list. The amount of right wing chaos and damage that NY DEMOCRATS are willing to countenance to avoid empowering someone who might possibly say that immigrants are good and deserve to be treated with decency and respect is so messed up.

Good morning. Lick no boots. Someone tell President of the Teamsters Union.

We set up a concentration camp for asylum seekers in the Panama jungle. We set up a concentration camp for asylum seekers in the Panama jungle. We set up a concentration camp for asylum seekers in the Panama jungle.

This is incredibly smart by @ryanhatesthis.bsky.social, a lesson Democrats have to learn fast. There will be no a-ha moment for the electorate. You can't wait around for people to realize how bad it is if they'll invariably wind up blaming the Reverse Vampires. You just have to fight, right now.

I have learned in recent years there are 10s of millions of Americans not only willing but eager to go watch a lynching from the comfort of a picnic blanket and the only thing that was holding them back was the social penalty; really makes you think about those who warn against social penalties.

People literally died from Covid while claiming it doesn’t exist. There is never going to be a wake up call for some people. A lot of people. It’s not about convincing them if they can’t be convinced. IMO it’s about overwhelming them entirely with opposition.

you know what's a fun word? regicide.

New It Could Happen Here Andrew and @miawong.bsky.social discuss what anarchism actually is as an ethic and a practice. www.iheart.com/podcast/105-...

America has no kings. Act accordingly.

He looks exactly like you think he does
