Kind of incredible how much Trumpism really is just a dumber version of Pat Buchanan’s shtick.

Oligarchs buying elections with million dollar giveaways. Hopefully people in Wisconsin won’t allow the South African to purchase a seat on your Supreme Court just like he bought the US federal government.

Wow- Himes during a heated exchange w/Will Cain on Fox: "I'm not gonna listen to to you tell me that this about a partisan advantage...it is by the grace of God that we don't have dead pilots right now...it makes me want to throw up to hear you turn this into a partisan issue. You just need to stop"

Schumer could at least fake trying to fight for our country. He could at least force the traitors to a meeting. Dems need to wake up. It's not 1980.

To repeat: the Trump administration peace deal was always a deal for peace between Russia and the US, not Russia and Ukraine. In it, it seems, the US gets Ukraine's resources, Russia gets Ukraine's land, and Ukraine gets to say thank you.

Still not understanding that America is under attack by Russia and @PeteHegseth is just another Putin useful idiot. If you are one of the enablers elected to defend America but who choose to sit back and let this Russian attack continue, what is actually in this for you? www.cnn.com/2025/03/02/p...

It was important for the press to ask if Biden talked about his dead kids too much but asking about the shadow president’s obvious drug use would be gauche.

What does Bus/Econ or economic sociol lit say is best way to fight a hostile takeover? Heartened by yesterday’s gatherings but I think Dem Party needs a better compass. Or any compass at all. Or a map or some story re what works when strangers march into headquarters, fire everyone, & take ur stuff

After a 12-hour markup where Democrats fought to stop them, Republicans passed a budget that betrays the middle class. Their plan steals from working families while delivering a $4.5 TRILLION giveaway to their billionaire donors. Democrats will fight this Republican Rip Off.

"We are in the midst of a constitutional crisis right now," said Erwin Chemerinsky, dean of the law school at the University of California, Berkeley. "There have been so many unconstitutional and illegal actions in the first 18 days of the Trump presidency. We never have seen anything like this."

Just awful: One of the inspector generals that Trump fired was examining Elon Musk's failures to meet reporting protocol designed to safeguard national security as a major recipient of Pentagon contracts. It's time to follow up on that. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1913...

The credulous language with which the legacy media is describing an effort by billionaires to loot the federal government. Privatizing prisons makes the more cruel. Privatizing the post office betrays a promise of access made at nation's founding. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/06/u...

I wrote about Seth Moulton, Rahm Emanuel, James Carville and other more centrist Democrats blaming progressives for Harris's defeat. Their arguments, in terms of election analysis, are weak. But we are in the midst of an intra-party conflict with high stakes. wapo.st/3ZGh5UV

As we head towards January, it is our turn to use this period productively. Hoping that Trump fails is not a plan. We must develop and foster new movements, structures, tactics, platforms and leaders to oppose Trump and articulate a positive vision. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/buil...

The incoming Trump administration is not sending their best. They’re sending people with big problems, and they’re bringing those problems to us. They’re rapists. They’re alcoholics. They’re criminals. And some, I assume, are good people 🤷🏽‍♀️

Much as I would like to be the kind of person who stopped using Twitter as a Statement: mainly what happened is it became more and more work to find content I was interested in as opposed to content the Internet's most boring people were paying a monthly fee to shove in my face.
