imagine writing this completely uncritically as if it’s a normal thing for a government official to say

A good night to remind people if you're tongue-tied over calling your reps (raises hand) you can type out a script for yourself with everything you want to say (including your name etc) and read it word for word into their voicemail. That way you don't forget anything!

Would you laugh if a large bird grabbed someone & flew away with them? Or if a piano fell out of the sky? Would that be funny? Does that seem like a joke? What if someone ran at full speed into a tunnel that was secretly a wall? Is that humorous? Is that a joking matter to you? Disgusting.

Social movements are more likely to have success when three factors are present: elite conflict, shifting public opinion, and elite blunders. Mass collective action can create the conditions for these factors to emerge and deepen.

"Unlike other issues, Trump is polling OK on immigration" isn't a reason for Democrats to ignore that issue, but rather a reason for them to attack it head on. Public opinion can actually be moved, Democrats. And on this issue there's a lot to push back on.

one thing that Democratic politicians should take note of is that the overlap between “great political optics” and “actual morally good stuff” is really big right now

Trump and Musk are eliminating 90% of Social Security’s regional staff—and, at the same time, will now only post public updates from Social Security on a platform owned by Musk, where more than 90% of seniors won’t see them. Corrupt, cruel, and wrong.

The vibe is "meant to do a google search and accidentally wrote a fb post." Except this time, it's a distraction from human rights violations.

The biggest thing we need to do is let people know that the protests are FUN. Yelling fuck the man is fun. You will meet fun people. We also need to make them more fun. Bring grills like the French. Bring instruments like it’s Mardi Gras. Give people a reason to spend their weekend in the streets.

Please share!!! This is getting ridiculous—they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.

He's going to drop all of these tariffs in a couple months, and then he's going to declare victory and trumpet the fact that the DOW went up 1000 points, and I literally fucking beg the media not to just print that as news without context both in headlines and column inches
