This weird, counter-factual "common knowledge" that Biden was somehow a failure, that his administration was awful, that he was bad at being President, REALLY needs to die. It was a lie from day one, created by cherry-picking and spinning like crazy. Biden/Harris was fantastic, Period.

What’s so odd about Hillary and Kamala being framed as “coronated” Is that no other two people had/ have more experience as these two women. And it’s by miles! Who else on the scene today or for ‘28 has met with a hundred world leaders besides Harris? No one. No one had when Hillary ran.

Calm down, folks, it was just an attempted assassination of a Jewish Democratic governor and his family on the first night of Passover, it’s not like somebody spray painted a dick on a Cybertruck.

“Liberals all want participation trophies” says the party whose leader is throwing himself a parade for his birthday.

The President is crashing the economy while dismantling the social safety net to pay for tax cuts for the rich. The devastation his policies are causing will harm every American. Congress must act to stop this.

THANK YOU VOTERS OF WISCONSIN !!

In Massachusetts, a judge held ICE in contempt for arresting an immigrant during a jury trial. In Wisconsin, Susan Crawford just showed Elon Musk’s money the door. And in DC, Cory Booker swept Strom Thurmond back into the dustbins of history. We need these moments of hope. #MomSky

NEW: No fewer than 10 principle scientists at NIH investigating emerging infectious diseases and neural disorders were among those fired by RFK Jr. today. One is an esteemed scientist awarded for breakthrough research into the causes of Parkinson's disease. By me and @emilymullin.bsky.social:

25 hours and 5 minutes Thank you Senator Cory Booker @booker.senate.gov Thank you for bringing a glimmer of light and hope into the darkness of this regime.

🤷‍♂️

Please call your representatives in Congress 202-224-3121 and tell them you will not vote them back in next year because they cut our Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid to pay for tax cuts for the rich #VoteBlue #wtpBLUE #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue

FACTS 🎯🎯🎯

Amen

📌Blowing up our government and siding with Putin isn't bad policy, it's treason.

@aoc.bsky.social: "Tax cuts cost money. We have to pay for them. So every dollar that you spend in federal taxes is going to pay for some rich person's G-Wagon. And it's also going to cut an 8-year-old kid with autism's ability to access Medicaid. That's what they are putting on the table."

Notes are being attached to #Swasticars... #FuckMusk

I don’t care if this is petty as hell, the only thing that brings me joy online anymore is watching or reading about Trump voters reaping the fuck out of what their hateful asses sowed.

"They'll never cut Social Security" is the new "they'll never overturn Roe v Wade."

The straight cis white dude billionaire whose products keep exploding wants you to know that the real problem in this world is DEI.

Putin takes him for a walk after trump has already bent over and spread 'em.😆

Oh so this was the red wave y’all were talking about

Remember, the alternative to the Trump Regime destroying our government was to tax billionaires a bit more. Now you know why they are doing it.

Maybe the billion dollar campaign by the far right over that same time demonizing us had something to do with it.

Chris Murphy: "It appears as if America is trying to align itself with dictators, that Donald Trump wants us to have our closest relationships with despots all around the world, because that makes it easier for him to transition American into a kleptocratic oligarchy."

At least seven top prosecutors inside the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia — including some involved in Jan. 6 prosecutions — have been demoted to entry-level positions by the new Trump-appointed interim U.S. attorney, multiple officials told NBC News.
