I'm astounded (but not) that I'm expected to carry on like usual and not raise hell about fascism.

As a North Carolinian, I am heartbroken and ashamed by what is happening to our state court system — Changing the rules of an election after it has been held like this is unconscionable.

Clean food was nice while it lasted. Is this what you want, not being able to trust that the food you eat and the medicine you take won't kill you or your family?

Bombshell in North Carolina: the state's GOP-dominated Court of Appeals just sided with the GOP candidate in last year's supreme court race. Their decision would toss roughly 60,000 ballots (!) that have been counted, & likely hand the election to GOP instead of incumbent Dem Justice who won it.

We would be in a whole different world if the Democrats had actually done their jobs after January 6 and held Trump accountable. But instead, they’re trying to throw trans Folks under the bus and partner with people like Steve Bannon and Marc Andressen for clout.

Reading over the Grassley-Cantwell bill that would reestablish congressional control over tariffs. A few things leap out.

Not sure what's worse, the reporter asking a softball "do you want to weigh in on that" [Signalgate] or the reporter immediately moving onto another topic when Trump demands, like a little baby, that she doesn't "bring that up again". Our media is failing us. Again. zeteo.com/subscribe

Schwarzenegger winning seemed like the most embarrassing thing that would ever happen in politics at the time and now he’s to the left of every elected Republican and a few Democrats and just makes videos going “young men, my fadda was a Nazi and he was a contemptible loosah”

THIS!! I haven't heard any pundits talk about the fundamental problem that Americans expect super cheap goods but also quality control and worker protections here in the US. We've been conditioned to believe it is our right and an immutable fact. This is no longer possible (and it was never right).

Please ignore tired pieces in publications like the Atlantic that are still trying to stigmatize mask wearing. Wearing a mask to prevent sickness from airborne viruses is a science-informed position, and it has been that way for over 100 years.

Trump campaigned on *replacing* income tax with tariffs. He promised to replace income tax, abolish tax on tips and overtime, abolish tax on social security, and recently, to abolish *all* taxes on incomes under $150k. None of that happened. Instead, we have all those taxes AND massive tariffs.

30 years ago was 1995, and Wall Street was in the midst of overvaluing every tech company they saw causing the Dotcom Bubble. Almost 15 years after that they would single-handedly cause the Great Recession. The past 15 years have been comparatively crickets.

Yup. The entire neoliberal system is built on an implicit bargain between labor and capital where the former gives up a big chunk of their power to the latter in exchange for consistent access to cheap consumer goods. We're about to see what happens when capital reneges...

I appreciate all of these detailed analysis of what’s wrong with the policy, but the crucial thing to keep in mind here is that Donald Trump sincerely, literally does not understand what a tariff is and when that is your starting point, nothing beyond it really matters.

People don't miss manufacturing jobs. They miss the effects of having 30+ percent union density. And we can build worker power again, with good policies, for the jobs most working class people actually have today rather than hoping mumbo jumbo will make it 1955 again.
