van hollen has discovered a remarkable new trick that democrats may wish to note: doing a good thing and making use of imagery to promote compassion and action in others

Shapiro's stance on Israel/Palestine is basically the commonly accepted gold standard among sane people in both parties, so the literal only reason to target him on this is bc he is Jewish. Yes, there were lies and propaganda against Shapiro, but those lies were invented bc he is Jewish.

I might be 'Sirens Call' pilled after reading it a few weeks back but it makes a lot of sense to me that Dems need to think more about what will actually draw attention and be willing to pursue those efforts even if it's not, on the surface, a necessarily favorable issue

“It’s amazing that others in this room underwrote electing a man who, in the last week, single-handedly destroyed all of American science. It’s amazing how much good science you can destroy with $320 million and RFK Jr, very fast.” — Seth Rogen’s censored remarks presenting the Breakthrough Prize

The Supreme Court was clear: Kilmar Abrego Garcia must be reunited with his family. If Trump continues to ignore the Court and undermine the rule of law, it’s important for every American – no matter their political affiliation – to take a stand.

We're in The Bad Place, folks. The existence of an overseas gulag to which you - yes, you personally - can be sent with no recourse marks the end of a whole period of American history. There's no going back after this. Even if these guys are defeated, the new order will have to look much different.

If Trump can claim a "national emergency" to disappear legal residents without due process, what’s to stop him from doing the same to U.S. citizens who oppose him? No one is safe — not even people legally in the country, possibly not even American citizens. Fascism is here.

There was an arson attack on the home of a Jewish governor and his family—on Passover—and the president of the United Stated couldn’t even be bothered to comment. Remember this the next time he claims to be the great defender of the Jewish people.

It’s surreal how fast the United States has fallen into a dictatorial regime. Checks and balances are gone, the president disappears innocent people into foreign prison camps, words get banned, and the Overton window shifts at light speed. I honestly wonder these days when they will come for me.

Trump’s suggestion that he could run for a third term—and Republican’s tacit openness to the prospect despite its clear unconstitutionality—is a low-key admission they don’t know how to put together a winning coalition without him directly in the ballot. See also: Wisconsin.

I'm seeing ppl say Booker's filibuster won't "do anything" & "doesn't require courage". & fr, idk what people want. He's using the only tool Dems have: gumming up the works. To get useful attn he'll have to speak, standing, for HOURS. idk many ppl w the courage to commit to that kind of thing do u?

David is completely right here. I think this is also why there's so much distrust & resentment of institutions in general. There is a constant claim that institutions are a bulwark, that they must be saved/preserved/respected and yet many of them either fold to power or can't provide accountability

Yes. I do not want to ever 'move on' again. Every time we turn the cheek, overlook the criminality, absolve the sins, they come back worse. I want punishment. Deterrence. Retribution. Err on the side of excess, not lenity. Anything less is asking them to come back worse yet again.

The reason Elon keeps doing these blatantly corrupt money giveaways to incentivize voting is because, again, no one is stopping him or holding him accountable. A democracy that refuses to do anything but assume everyone acts in good faith isn’t a democracy at all
