"Politics decides who gets to sit at that table. It decides who eats, who has medicine, who has a home. And these days, it decides who gets deported in the middle of the night through helicopter ICE raids, or whose kid is targeted by a state legislature for existing"
We Lost the Flag — and the Feeling That Went With It
While the right turned culture into a weapon, Democrats surrendered the story of who we are. Now, everything from sports to art to gaming is the battlefield for America’s soul.

Man, when @danadubois.bsky.social and I talk to our new buddy Frederic Poag about sex and dating on our show "The Daily Whatever", things quickly descend into chaos. Somebody call FEMA, cause we got a Cat 5 "drowning in p*$$y" event up over here! 🤣🤣🤣

My latest about how, love us or hate us, GenX got screwed even as we made the culture.

Maybe we’re just late bloomers?

I mean, cool if true, but wouldn't it be more helpful to spend some of it now on getting us an administration and political culture that believed in climate change, and wanted to take action now?
I won’t believe it until I see it!

They already tried to kill Nancy Pelosi & nearly killed her husband Paul.

They killed Capitol Police on Jan 6 & tried to hang Mike Pence.

We still don’t know who planted the pipe bombs.

Now they tried to assassinate Governor Shapiro & his family on Passover.

The two sides are not the same.

As a natural-born citizen, I've never had to take the Oath to the Constitution before. Until now. Against all enemies, foreign and domestic feels VERY CLARIFYING. This is our foundational document--defend it! Take the #ConstitutionalChallenge!

WTAF, New York Times?!? Millions of people protest, and in the digital Times it's a small headline with no pic below the "fold" and in the print Times it's a picture with barely any text below the fold? Are you kidding me?? I know you're owned by a compliant billionaire, but talk about failure...
