Interested in the intersection of politics and media. Old school liberal Dem incrementalist. GenX. Mostly learning and hitting that like button. I block a lot. No time to argue with misinformed attention-seekers, grifters, or their white knights.

Everybody dunking on this clown’s post is encouraging. But he has 12k followers. THAT’S the bigger problem.

I would like to apologize to Major Chuck Shoemore. It has come to my attention that 47 is less than 53. Apparently, this has been true for a long time. Maybe even forever. My bad! PS - I still think Senator Jeffery should resign from the Supreme Court and let AOC take over! - Informed Citizen

The left isn't beating that anti-Black reputation anytime soon. Every argument made why Dems need to be primaried (old, ineffective, out of touch, etc) does NOT APPLY to Lauren Underwood. But what does apply? Is Black woman.

Whoa!😳 This guy is challenging Underwood and says he’s running for Congress “to restore integrity, protect working families, and ensure every voice is heard -not just the wealthy or well-connected” WTF?!

I am sincerely lost trying to understand the definition of these labels people constantly apply to others. Liberal Leftist Centrist Corporate Dem Progressive And I really hate how tribal people are. Even ones who claim to be forward thinking and enlightened.

Add this to the list of ridiculous talking points, along with: Walz was told by DNC consultants to stop his “weird” rhetoric Joe Biden’s internal polling showed him losing to Trump Harris and Dems never talked about Project 2025 or tied it to Trump The DNC rigged the 2015 primary against Sanders

Every ResisTrash account I’ve seen demanding impeachment has admitted that it wouldn’t actually result in anything. But they want it anyway. In other words, strongly worded letters are ok. 🧐🤔

Awesome! 💪 But also, maybe try some Lumify? 👁️

Here's a very partial list of what Dems have succeeded in getting excluded from the Big Ugly via Byrd Rule challenges. It makes the bill less-shitty and may create a delay Dems can use to exacerbate the unpopularity of the bill. www.emptywheel.net/2025/06/27/h...

My thoughts on SCOTUS' universal injunctions decision, a thread: Unfortunately there has been widespread misunderstanding of what the Roberts court did today. (1/x)

Man who is 80 years old and lost two primaries: Here's how you win campaigns. Talk to the working class. Harris: I did. Here's an example. Look: Harris-Walz-economic-policy-press-release.pdf share.google/beMYlNO6dFHS...

With this and the HELP victories from yesterday, Republicans are out more than a quarter of the affirmative cuts they wanted. Just enormous praise to the Democratic staff who argued these provisions in front of the Senate Parliamentarian.

When progressives lose, @sanders.senate.gov blames it on elections being rigged or groups like AIPAC. It's never that the voters rejected their ideas. When they win, like Mamdani, he claims they're the blueprint for all elections. Sanders' demagogic populism is non-falsifiable in his worldview.

Unhinged is exactly the word for it. People are in the replies acting like there was some sort of centralized DNC effort to personally destroy Mamdani which never ever existed. Totally unmoored from reality and lost in conspiratorial thought.
