NPR, PBS give back far more than they receive in nuggets of education, journalism, enrichment, ideas, and PUBLIC GOOD. They are a well on which the entire world can draw, for free. Our tax investment is, quite literally, a drop in the bucket. A molecule of a drop. www.npr.org/2025/06/12/g...

it’s extremely disorienting to see the NYC mayoral debate with Cuomo talking about protecting israel, and nobody is aware of the fact that Israel just started a war with Iran

Trump’s go-to line about every foreign policy crisis and war - from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, to October 7th, to the Israel’s devastation of Gaza - was “It would never have happened if I was president.” Welp.

been thinking about this for a while: progressive mayors/candidates face headwinds created by billionaire owned media and conservative institutions like cops. there’s never going to be a mayor as progressive as you want bc there’s a job to do dealing with a variety of stakeholders.

Please do not forget that most of the money given to Israel for weapons stays right here in the accounts of the American arms industry. Doesn't go anywhere. Lines a lot of powerful American pockets.

HERE IS A THING that EVERY American can do: 1. Call your Senator. 2. Say the following: "I am requesting that you place a hold on the nomination of Bill Essayli as U.S. Attorney for the Central District of CA for directing federal agents to assault a U.S. Senator." 3. Call other Senator, repeat

We have so far been unable to reach a deal with Vox Media that includes fair pay, AI protections, competitive benefits, improved severance and layoff procedures. Should we not reach a fair contract tonight, our 250-member @VoxMediaUnion.bsky.social has overwhelmingly authorized a strike. ⏰ @vox.com

Seeing the ref working to get the media almost to, "Didn't Padilla kind of ask for it really?" I'm pondering the double standard Democrats must constantly navigate. And as much as I attack their sometimes hapless responses to events, it's rarely conceded as a very real factor in the press.

Just left downtown and cops and city trucks are at every entrance to major bridges connecting the loop to the other parts of the greater downtown area. Maybe the cops should go the fuck home and stop acting like they're preparing for a zombie attack. Go back to Mt Greenwood or whatever.

Seeing more reports from LA moms that ICE is kidnapping nannies from parks and nobody seems to know what’s happening to them or the kids in their care. Some bustling parks are now nearly empty from fear. They’re destroying our civic spaces like a conquering army.

The state of California needs to arrest the DHS "security" forces for assault and every Democrat in the U.S. Senate needs to sign onto a campaign to impeach Kristi Noem. Right fucking now.

This is Kristi Noem admitting that Homeland Security is currently occupying Los Angeles, not to protect citizens, but for purely political reasons. Yes, she really is that stupid.

Jeffries should have been out there IMMEDIATELY saying that his entire caucus was filing articles of impeachment against Noem. These people LOVE to issue letters. Think of this as a souped up letter and then BASH HER WITH IT DAILY. Every time you can start a sentence with: "NOEM must be impeached"

@smith.senate.gov @klobuchar.senate.gov @repilhan.bsky.social I think you should use every annoying tool at your disposal to grind House and Senate business to a halt, and I think you should get in the road and block the stupid parade tanks. Less talk, more do.

Why any democrat voted to confirm any of these loons is beyond me. They were all going to be confirmed anyway! You are not earning brownie points by voting yes. YOU GAIN NOTHING WITH YOUR COMPLIANCE.

As a four-decade veteran of the daily journalism business, let me tell you: Every competent political reporter in this country knows that Trump is trying to establish a dictatorship. The industry's shame is that so few journalists will say so, and the ones who do lose their jobs.

I am sure that if Orrin Hatch got manhandled at a Janet Reno press conference in 1998 all Republicans would be, "Well, what did he do to provoke it? What was he doing there? Did he have his special pin on?"

It’s not illegal for a United States Senator to go to a public press conference and ask questions about your constituents safety. It's our job.

SHUT. IT. DOWN. A senator was dragged out of a press conference for standing up for his constituents and against fascism. Watch how your representatives and senators respond to their own colleague being treated like this. That'll show you how they'll react when it's you on the ground.

If the Democrats don't shut down the Senate. I don't want to hear anything. If any of you whine in my mentions saying 'they can't do that' you will be blocked. Schumer has been in the Senate for 90 million years he knows what to do.

Just so we're all clear: It's not a coincidence that the first senator they've used physical force against is Sen. Alex Padilla, a Latino man representing California.
