If you’ve got a Porsche in the driveway, a lake house for the summer, and a Rolex on your wrist, but you say you can’t afford to give your employees one hour of paid time off per 30 hours worked, (passed by the ppl in November!!) you’re not a job creator. You’re a grifter. #NELeg

Be aware that government records belong to the government—& the American people. And that those records can hold people w/political power ACCOUNTABLE for what they do. The accountability of politicians to the people who gave them power is the ESSENCE of democracy. Signal prevents accountability.

Because of the pay gap, women have lost out on more than $60 trillion in wages since 1967. Yes, trillion. On an hourly basis, women were paid 18.0% less on average than men in 2024. We must ensure fair wages for all.

Adding a journalist to a top secret government group chat about dropping bombs IS the kind of thing people who aren’t super politically literate can understand and find shocking/notable/disqualifying. Dems should seize on this and never ever let it go. I hope to hear about it in a decade

Not a single person out of 18 of the very most senior officials in this Admin — including the Director of National Intelligence and the CIA Director — voiced any concern with highly classified military plans circulated on Signal. You also can be sure this is not the only time.

1/ Intellectuals don’t have to be on the street to fight. But their words shouldn’t be used to multiply abstractions or evade responsibility. Theory must move toward changing the world, not just analyzing it. It should innovate smarter tactics of resistance, refute propaganda, and push toward action

Tonight, I rewatched the award-winning 1989 historical drama Glory. Directed by Edward Zwick, the film is about the 54th Massachusetts Infantry Regiment, a Black regiment that fought as part of the Union Army during the US Civil War (1861–65). en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glory_(... #movies #BlackHistory

Don’t you forget it. When anyone tells you your words are too strong and violence is not the answer, say to them: they commit violence on us daily. DAILY! Why are you kindly accepting it? And has saying “please stop” ever resulted in its end?

Every 3-4 years centrists invent a new argument that appeals to liberals by insisting it’s a revolutionary boon for Democratic success while conveniently requiring liberals to make no personal sacrifices whatsoever and this is why you’re going to start hearing the word “abundance” every 30 minutes

News: "This is likely unconstitutional." Everyone paying attention: "Yes, we are aware that it's a constitutional crisis. Do you have any journalists that can perhaps put this into context for more people of how other republics have survived their constitutional crises?"

The big lesson of the last 50 years is that cynicism benefits authoritarians. As such, if liberals are ever able to regain power, we should prioritize restoring trust in institutions. The best way to do this is to mete out extremely harsh punishments against powerful people who abused this trust.

It's a pretty obvious point, but American liberalism's fixation with doing major fiscal policy through the administrative state, rather than through direct provision of public services, comes as a result of our incredibly unrepresentative and antidemocratic political system.
