Democrats, You don't need presidential aspirations to lead. You don't need the establishment's approval You don't need to have all the answers People are anxious for the future of our country. Fearful for the fate of democracy. Angry at the oligarchs and their insatiable greed Step up and lead.

I think the entire construct of alpha males and beta males is deeply stupid, totally contradictory to the science and a way for stunted men to make sense of the world. That said it's very funny that every man in Trump world is basically a beta male to Trump.

Of course he exaggerates the trade deficits, as he does the quantities of fentanyl coming in. His trade wars are built on bullshit. His abandonment of Ukraine is built on lies. His decimation of our government is built on fiction. www.cnn.com/2025/03/06/p...

Calling out other Democrats is not the way to build a coalition to win back Congress and the White House. Classic circle the wagons and turn the guns on each other.

The man who issues threats daily and then immediately backs down from them has done it again. You better watch it, because next time he might really mean it.

It's ironic that the playbook being executed against our government is the one that was refined in the destruction of hundreds of the country's small newspapers that held communities together and held local power accountable.

While Democrats and Republicans alike have not done a good enough job promoting aid to Ukraine, the money we have sent to Ukraine has helped us at home and abroad. Watch the latest episode of @ragingmoderates.bsky.social podcast out now: open.spotify.com/episode/0K5f...

🚨 BREAKING: This is beyond outrageous. Elon Musk, his cranky mother Maye, and one of his young kids were chauffeured in Air Force One and Marine One—straight to the White House, where they’re apparently staying. WTF is going on? It goes without saying, this is not normal. 🙄

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Anyone want to bet that no one looks at the email responses that Musk asked for ? It requires too much manpower and organization. Even w/AI He will hold them in the event he has an interaction with someone. If so, he can look up their response or lack of, and use it as cause for action.

I will keep asking. What is Trump doing to lower costs for American families? We can see what the billionaires are getting with their VIP access to the White House, but what about the rest of America? www.usatoday.com/story/money/...

This is like Senators asking for Trump to release funding for their pet projects. When you campaigned for a personalist presidency you have turned yourself into a beggar seeking the King’s favor rather than a citizen who can be confident of equal treatment for all.

Thanks for posting here Chris. How do you think his peers and people that report to him will respond ? And if I’m asking this wrong, please correct me, but if he makes a ridiculous decision to bring charges, which court is it appealed to if he wins the case ? All insights welcome

So increasing the minimum wage to a livable wage is “socialism”? But Amazon union busting, keeping wages low, and forcing workers onto public assistance while its founder increases his net worth by $7.9M an hour is the "free market"? Perhaps this could be a WaPo opinion piece.

Everything he says about deportation camps on military bases is spot on—and alarming. But don’t get thrown off by the name Blackwater. It’s still out there—rebranded. Blackwater became Xe in 2009, then Academi in 2011, before merging into Constellis in 2014. The name changed but the op lives on. 🧵
