"If I ask you to do something for me, do you think you can do it as a simple act of kindness, and not a come-on meant to tease, titillate, or otherwise manipulate you emotionally?" -

Every girl's disclosure when interacting with the opposite sex.
This is the counter argument we’re dreading. #Planter stepping down would solve that problem.

But like I said, we talk about “if #Obama #Biden” did this…

We’ve that moment now.
By the way if Platner was serious about his duty to the country and not just in it for the power, he'd have already stepped down. Republicans are gonna run "see they have Nazis too" ads in the general and he knows it and his team knows it but they don't care.

Have you checked in on Hurricane Melissa?

She’s making stops in Puerto Rico, Haiti, Cuba, The Bahamas, and all the lovely islands before reaching DisneyWorld!

Tell your friends…

I think we underscore how #Fetterman stroke may have had a bigger effect than merely “closed captions.”

A #stroke can alter a person’s whole personality and beliefs.

He doesn’t belong in #congress, he belongs in a long-term rehab facility.
In case you need a refresher on how Fetterman went from being the fave of grassroots progressives to "Trump's favorite Democrat," check out @abbyvesoulis.bsky.social's profile of the senator here:
“We voted for all the crackdown on immigration. That the admin vowed to fire and traumatize gov employees and shut down services…we thought it was a ruse for democrats.”
Federal worker: My district went for Trump both in 2016 and 2024, and a lot of my friends supported him. But they didn't vote for the parks to close, health care costs to skyrocket, veterans to lose care, and for tens of thousands of federal employees to be at risk of losing their jobs.

Every last one of them voted for cruelty for others and didn’t think it would affect them. They were fine with the Trump racism, but were not prepared for the Trump elitism too.

Men: “you saying we can’t do anything or say nothin’ huh.”
A lot of men fear acknowledging what actually counts as sexual harassment because doing so would mean confronting their own behavior.
Everyday men are sexually harassing women and calling it everything but.

If we REALLY did a survey of what they consider NOT to be sexual harassment…..we’d be very shocked.
A little bit of both but mainly #reporters know very little of the facts or subject of interviews.

That’s why there’s a lot of after fact checking afterwards.

Also! Today’s #journalism is rooted in click baits so there’s very little real journalism and more #algorithm demand.
I am trying to figure out if legacy media lets Republicans lie without correction because they think it's good journalism or because they don't know the facts well enough to point them out.

Either way, if you value the truth and pro-democracy coverage, support Democracy Docket. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0
I say i this looks like cat yoga.
Theory: cats can have ADHD too
Maybe I’m just tired of having my hopes up and getting burned.
Just had an interview with two and they always always act nice, smiling in your face and giving you hope and then WHAMMM! 🔪🔪
You can never tell what white women are thinking.

An employee inadvertently caused his boss to lose $$$$ and didn't get fired, he asked his boss why,

"Fire you? You're the most expensive portfolio I've now."

The boss understood the gravity of the mistake weighing on the employee and by keeping him on, he fostered the best employee he ever had

This's not a "they've Nazis, and we can't?" take. #Platner should've been vetted better and removed/covered it from the jump. But we need to look past "should/shouldn't haves".

Being under this microscope means he will work to live up to our scrutiny, showing #Dems can give grace when warranted.
The republican party has all types of criminals in their midst:
Rapists
Embezzlers
Sexual harassers
Perverts
Tax Fraud
The list goes on and on.

I think as a party we should accept #Platner "flaws", allow grace for whatever excuse he gives and get him elected.

Shit...we still ruminate about "...if Obama/Biden did this."

Well we have our #Obama and #Biden moment now with #Platner, what are we going to do?

We can NOT let #Republicans dictate how we handle our party, just on that point alone...I want #Platner to stay in the race.
We let the RW take the narrative over #Hillary "deplorables" and #Biden "aging" and #Harris "take your guns".

Let's not let them do that with #Platner.

Don't let the party with no legs to stand on tell us how to run.
Dems have this self-imposed/Republicans weapon of choice that "we've to be near perfect." due to how horrible the republican party is, not even minor flaws for fear of being hypocrites. #SusanCollins needs to go NOW.

Lets not shoot ourselves in the foot with a candidate that can do that. #Platner

That said IDK if I'd have the same take with a cross burning on his chest. Degrees of transgressions feel important: knives and guns are weapons with different results.

The focus should be if this tattoo is a knife or a shed of horrors.

I don't believe it is a shed of horrors.

Detective walks into a pristine house of closeted racist/bigot's home:
Det: Immaculate house.
Sus: Thank you.
Det: Forensic! Bring the blacklight.
Sus What's that?
Det: It allows us to see beyond the naked eye.
Sus: Oh, don't you need a warrant?
Det: Do we need one?
Sus: I want my lawyer.
This week felt like someone ran a blacklight over the hotel bedspread of politics and it all came up smeary swastikas
