A race see which happens first: hurting so many people including their own voters that there’s a massive public backlash or dismantling democratic institutions to the point they can keep power despite public discontent.

Oh, great. Andrew Tate is now in the US. 🙄

now more than ever

Real life examples of people i know that are helped by Medicaid: my mom at the end of her life. Me when i injured my back and couldn’t work. My friend who has lime disease and can’t work full time. My friend who has a son with autism.

former DNC Chair responds to someone pointing out he was a registered lobbyist for Boeing and Lockheed by telling him to get a job

The DCCC just accepted $2M from Palantir and SpaceX. Fucking Hakeem Jeffries HAS to go.

BUY NOTHING TOMORROW Tomorrow there is an economic blackout strike. Buy nothing day in solidarity with Federal workers.

@repmoskowitz.bsky.social Great interview on Meidas Touch. Thank you, Congressman.

@city.bsky.social saw you on The Majority Report today. Excellent.

We got a Costco membership for the first time in our lives today. They asked why & I said because treat your workers well, you value diversity, & you didn’t cave in to authoritarian demands. He said: “We’ve been getting lots of folks saying that, thanks for joining.” Who needs a gallon of ketchup?

New earrings just dropped!

Hearing that the DOGE website was hacked is like hearing that the dot com bubble burst.

What form of emotional intelligence is manipulation?

Word of the Day is ‘quockerwodger’ (19th century): a puppet individual whose strings are pulled entirely by someone else.

“Elon did two Nazi salutes. He did them for five main reasons:” This is fascinating. Terrifying, but fascinating.

My honey has a valentine love note trail awaiting him for when he gets home ☺️

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

If i ever end up going to hell, It’s just going to be me in a room with a phone and computer trying to enroll in health insurance over and over again for the rest of my life, while my back spasms.

What’s happening in the courts is positive news. But relying solely on the courts is bad politics. Our Democratic leaders need to step up or get the fuck out of the way.

new resignation from SDNY Hagan Scotten -- he's a John Roberts clerk -- Roberts can't be happy at that -- and a 2 times bronze medal winner for duty in Iraq. This is the best of DOJ v the worst of the political system. The lines so clearly drawn

The purpose of a business is to make a profit. The purpose of government is to protect and support the people.

Pretty damn good framing for Dems

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social you're more upset at the people you are supposed to represent BEGGING you to grow a spine and be at least a fraction as ruthless as MAGA than you are at Elon Musk committing a coup. Where is the opposition to the overthrow of our democracy? Where is leadership?

we need to bring back words like wastrel, rogue, ruffian, ne’er-do-well. there is an epidemic of miscreants doing shenanigans and we have lost the vocabulary to describe them.

“sent a letter”

Elon Musk is a dick.

So Elon Musk - not an elected official, doesn't have security clearance, has been under investigation for years, illegally seized control of trillions of our $$ - is trying to access SCIFs (top govt secrets). THIS IS A COUP. Where is the military? The Dems? Why aren't we stopping this?

And now our tyrannical govt is threatening to attack our ally Panama. Service members, how many of y'all wanna die in the conflicts he's manufacturing? This is a COUP. Military leadership, wake the eff up. Follow the Constitution and your oath!!

What is the threshold at which people turn on this tyrannical, incompetent administration? How many people have to die? How much suffering does it require? At what point to we get enough folks squeezed hard enough for an effective nonviolent General Strike?

I've assembled a team of the most horrible perverts and criminals you've ever seen and we're going to fix this country
