This is the most wretched campaign of deliberate, explicit persecution the United States has perpetrated against a minority group in decades. Many of the most important people in politics and journalism are busying themselves trying to figure out how little to say or do about it.

I think most people are intuitively aware of this but something like the official White House account posting an “ASMR” video of shackled immigrants is not just cruel for its own sake, it’s intentional envelope-pushing to ramp up to desensitization over inhumane detention, camps, and deaths

And that's exactly why you need a third party or a replacement or whatever you want to call it. Democrats are full of boomer ex-Republicans who don't want to be MAGAs but who also hate progress. The youth, the left, real progressives won't vote for this.

I’m not sure what the AP style book for “fuck you, make me” is, but if they bow to the right wing language police here, the AP might as well close up shop

ASL interpreters who work in the arts (concerts, opera, theatre, etc) deserve to be valued as artists too. it takes so much skill to be this good at capturing the FEEL of music beyond just translating the meaning of the text and it’s an invaluable accessibility service

#FYI: ProPublica obtained a vast cache of IRS information showing how billionaires like Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk pay little in income tax compared to their massive wealth — sometimes, even nothing. (Published 2021)

is it good or bad that a billionaire oligarch with close ties to foreign dictators is currently downloading the most sensitive information the us federal government has about its citizens to his own private servers?

I do not need the Dems to tell us how bad things are. We already read the news. I need them tell us what they plan to do about it

Unelected agents of a oligarch have seized core services of the state without legal sanction or authorization; yes, that's a coup

Honest suggestion for @thedemocraticparty.bsky.social #dncchair meeting - tear up the agenda tomorrow. Don't cancel the vote but hold a press conference on the shit that's going down. Don't wait on Jeffries and Schumer. The media isn't going to cover it until someone treats it like an emergency.

why are people who work for the government doing what Elon Musk tells them to do

submitted 31 days ago • 10 comments

Congressional Democrats should be outside OPM headquarters in front of cameras demanding that Musk's flunkies be arrested and frog-marched out (Congressional Republicans should too but that's a different story)

they are stealing data from the american people and depriving us of the transparency that we are entitled to by law. none of this is legal and not a single federal employee has any reason to comply.

Elon Musk is locking government workers out of computer systems at U.S. agencies. This unelected freak is burning down our government. www.reuters.com/world/us/mus...

what Musk is doing is as close to the government being taken over by a hostile foreign power in our lifetimes, the coverage should reflect that

he'd be in jail in germany. anybody seriously playing this game is an enemy and an opp. but if you're wondering if it was a nazi salute maybe the thick pack of nazi policies surrounding it on all sides will give you some context clues

For real. This is a Nazi salute. Period. And he meant it to be seen that way. The wealthiest man on earth, the man who just bought himself a US president, is a legit fascist and wants everyone to know it. There is no other explanation for this. There just isn’t

Again, what the fuck is happening with the House Dem caucus @markpocan.bsky.social @repmarkpocan.bsky.social??? We are so goddamn sick of Jeffries cowardice. Quoting bible verses the other day. He needs to GO. Sarah McBride deserves to have the entire House Dem caucus defend her on the floor.

For years now, the right has been accusing Democrats of running a shadowy conspiracy to protect politicians who are sex predators. Democrats need to scream "WHAT ARE THEY HIDING?" until they force the report's release.

The more I think about it, the more I’m disturbed about this photo. We should transfer power. It is our constitutional responsibility, but we do not have to normalize him. I have no idea what Biden is thinking with this photo op. He is normalizing fascism.

Seriously, if you hear another man say something like ‘your body, my choice’, you have to fuck them up bad enough that they never say it again. If they can’t be good people they can at least be too scared to be bad
