REP. BRYAN STEIL: It shouldn't be lost on your viewers that George Soros has poured millions of dollars in BOLDUAN: I looked up the numbers. Soros has donated $2 million. By comparison, Elon Musk has donated more than $19 million.

"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥

I'm not a programming guy but MSNBC and CNN should be airing this Cory Booker thing in the same way you take over programming if there's a no-hitter or a basketball player with 60 points in three quarters. It's a physical feat! Cut in for this kind of thing. Costs nothing, gooses ratings, good TV.

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

Wondering if the West diving headfirst into the darkest waters of fascism isn’t prep for the massive backlash once people truly get what big oil, banks, Gov, Corp news media have done/allowed to happen to the planet. We’re at 1.5C right now & roughly 10 yrs from unimaginably horrific 2C.

A recent trend at international academic conferences is that some American participants use burner phones or minimalist laptops. Their devices often run only browsers and basic software. This resembles the security measures travelers took 15 years ago when visiting China. rb.gy/erdz48

No matter what side of the aisle you are on, you should be appalled that a billionaire thinks he has the right to buy elections like this.

Tonight an unbelievable 34,000 people gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back. This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008. Also bigger than the 2024 DNC. And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

Murphy: "If we continue to observe norms, if we continue to engage in business as usual, this democracy could be gone. I don't think we have a year to save American democracy. I think the way the president is acting ... puts out democracy at immediate risk."

The good news is that I’ve convinced Gavin Newsom to change his podcast into a comedy podcast about bad movies, but the bad news is that he picked some movie called Come and See and he’s reviewing it with Ann Coulter and they’re both just laughing

Bernie Sanders: "I think this is a prelude not only to cutting benefits, but to privatizing Social Security ... why do you lie so much about Social Security? Why do you make it look like it's a broken system? The reason is to get people to lose faith in the system so you can give it over to Wall St"

It’s clear that the leadership of the Democratic Party is absolutely fucking worthless and has no grasp of the moment they are in.

if you find yourself reluctant to support the guy at Columbia because you find some of the politics he espoused distasteful or even abhorrent, you should know that this is exactly the reaction that they hoped for in choosing him as a target for unlawful detention based on political speech.

I know this is extremely vulgar idealism, but I do think we should try to aggressively reassert the norm that lying is bad. Not in a "Four Pinnochios" fact-checking kind of way, but in a way that frames this kind of lying as moral degeneracy that is fundamentally corrosive to the human spirit.
