here's a request: can everyone saying the trump-zelensky fight is the most shameful thing they've ever seen in the white house access that rage the next time trump brings a genocidal, currently wanted war criminal into the oval office and promotes an ethnic cleansing scheme

Government efficiency is when every federal agency has to send a daily emergency email to its workers telling them to ignore another daily email from a different department trying to fire them without knowing what their jobs are.

We’re so cooked.

No better quote from Merrick Garland summarizes why he was the wrong man for the job than this from his farewell speech. From start to finish, he brought norms to a Trump fight and democracy suffered.

If I’m elected, we’re going to begin an audit of every single DNC consulting contract on Day One. Sunlight is the best disinfectant. It’s time to eliminate grift and spend to win. Let's choose who we work with based on our values, our coalition, and our path to victory.

The idea that Dems ostracized Musk and pushed him reluctantly into the arms of the GOP is so absurd. He has billions in contracts from a Democratic administration; Pentagon officials defer to him per the New Yorker; Chuck Schumer hosted him in the Senate less than 18 months ago.

Ladies and gentlemen, may I present the “pro-life” Republican Party.

Atoms are binary. They are either intended to be hydrogen or helium. We can't just scrap this worldview just because of a handful of exceptions

The way I’d put it is…a not insignificant portion of the internet—and the world, I guess—defines themselves not by the things they do and love, but their opposition to others. When you take that away, they’re bereft of purpose.

Twitter did get us this one time

Wrote about how four years of “Fund the Police!” did zero for the Democrats except legitimize GOP talking points, depress Dem voter turnout, hand Trump a well-funded police state, and make the world a crueler, more violent place. An abject failure. theappeal.org/fund-the-pol...

vital political priority to get blue states to stop refusing to build housing. not only giving up electoral college votes to the GOP but clearly pushing many people to the right

I think there may be some real drawbacks turning “the media” into “whoever among you can get the most attention at any given moment.”
