Sadly, empathy is equated with “woke” behavior. Kinda explains the book banning, editing of history, and normalizing derision. Empathy is dangerous to someone’s agenda, but not mine.

A lot of good Democrats, but the caucus needs to listen to the progressives who are used to being demonized. Whether young or old, they’ve seen it, and they can speak truth to power.

Sadly, Navalny’s end isn’t what most people, let alone politicians, are built for. What a man!

My alma mater. A recent copy of the alumni news explained that they intend to do a workaround for DEI, but not only is publishing your strategy not a good idea, the snitch culture would out them anyway. Not sure what I would have done. A dark era...

But, yeah, 47 is the one in charge, according to lawyers arguing in front of Chutkan, and Musk is not making decisions.

Never too early to counter fascism. This information is critical. We see them interfering openly in European elections, Australia is not beyond their sites.

I’m def not in the 47 camp, but other similar-minded attendees dispute the idea that he wasn’t cheered by a likely right-leaning crowd. Added credibility: the same crowd booed Swift, his imagined nemesis.

Expected or not, I welcome shouting this waste, from the purported efficiency administration, from the rooftops.

Not what I thought it was or want it to be, but our families and friends and vulnerable residents are counting on us to stay here and be part of the solution. 🪷

Same as the GOP campaign against Jimmy Carter in 1980. They traveled all over the Middle East to prolong the Iran hostage crisis until after the election.

When peaceful domestic protesters know the likely Secretary of Defense wouldn’t mind shooting them in the legs, it might cast a pall.

The incoming administration knows that and doesn’t want it. In fact, it’s their blue print for policy to avoid.

Elon will be coming for you, too, now that he’s been supercharged by U.S. corruption.

Dems need to abandon the “lesser evil” brand and actively work against not only corruption, but the appearance of corruption. It could be kryptonite for megalomaniacal billionaires.

I’m concerned about the upkeep of scraping the barnacles off my account. I’ve had 30 of accounts follow me today…I hope they can resolve this issue. I don’t have the time.

Ukraine is having a hard enough time without this cynical deployment of bots. X and Putin are cornering the market on disinformation.

His wardrobe choices are signaling his respective contempt and respect for different audiences. So yes, it does matter.

Worth a read. Clarifies that this is not an uncommon occurrence, and it’s a huge loophole. Probably they want to maintain insurance. bipartisanpolicy.org/blog/what-if...

Yeah, she “stepped down” from her position on the House Appropriations Committee in May, but leaving her constituents unrepresented is unconscionable. Not having sought re-election isn’t a solution. “Never has a sitting member of Congress been removed from office due to incapacitation…
