Senator: (posting on bluesky) The president told his supporters to prepare for the "Night Of One Thousand Screams." Might I suggest he instead hold the Night Of One Thousand Bipartisan Discussions Of Job Creation

It’s really that easy.

You can’t outsmart ranked choice voting. People think you can, but you can’t.

I see two versions of wrong thinking about RCV. The first is people just refusing to rank multiple people, and the second looks like this.

Ah yes the many times The Woke demanded the President pull comedians from TV

The woke were warned their tools could be turned against them but couldn't imagine history's arc bending rightward. (I struggled to imagine it myself. Now populists facing the same warning keep implying no future censorious left could exceed what we've had already. (We'll see.)

Trump’s allies now control X, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, & TikTok.

They own Fox News, CBS, WaPo, WSJ & NY Post.

They own Sinclair Broadcasting which has 200 tv stations and local news in 100 markets.

“Freedom of speech” is now what Trump and his billionaire pals say it is.

The worst part is, we all know this is preventable. Decades of politicians caring more about people being able to own guns than the safety of kids made it so anyone can go around doing this. We can look to any other country in the world and see the solution, our leaders just don’t have the will.

When candidate Jacob Frey pledged in 2017 to end homelessness in five years, nobody could have predicted that he would face such obstacles as getting elected mayor, having to make good on the pledge, and that a seemingly endless period of time like "five years" would pass so quickly.

Minneapolis property owner on city's failure to address homelessness

A Minneapolis property owner has been ordered to clear an encampment after the city declared it a "public health nuisance" and said it's exploring legal action against the property owner. Hamoudi…

No matter what the DFL tries to say, remember that this happened. Multiple progressive campaigns spent months organizing and beat Frey so bad he staged a failed walk out and subsequently had to manipulate the state party into overturning the clear result. This can happen again in November.

He literally keeps getting worse..this is bananas crazy

Minneapolis for the Many @mplsforthemany.com · Jul 5

When Jacob Frey first ran for mayor in 2017, he infamously promised to end homelessness in 5 years.

Eight years later, homelessness in Minneapolis is no better than when he first ran.

And since Mayor Frey can’t rely on actual data, he started making up his own.

I told a student about how mozart used to "act like a cat" during some of his own rehearsals and then I mentioned the next week that I was moving and we have to keep our cat locked up in a room while we do that and this student said "I bet you'd have to lock mozart in a room if he was moving"
