And if you can’t make the “corrupt pedo billionaire is burning the constitution, wrecking social services and disappearing people at will. We want to tax billionaires, build housing, protect social services, and think diversity is a good thing” message stick then you should gtfo of politics.

Adam Bonica @adambonica.bsky.social · Jul 19

This is exactly the point @jakemgrumbach.bsky.social and I have been making. The Democratic Party's problem isn't too much turnout, it's too little. The path forward isn't chasing the center, but mobilizing the base and disaffected voters with compelling candidates who stand for something.

Summary of key takeaways about “Biden skippers”—voters who supported Biden in 2020 but sat out 2024. Findings include that they are largely winnable, favor Democrats (+40%), want a strong economic populist message, and are highly motivated by healthcare. Many skipped voting due to economic disaffection, not liberalism. They want Democrats to be fighters, not appeasers.

The US government holds a tremendous amount of data about US citizens. Now,
The Trump administration is trying to access that data and link it together.

One of the most consistent themes in all of Tony Gilroy's interviews going back before season 1 is that he treats the Star Wars universe like history. The end result is the show feeling so deeply rooted and real, despite being in the same universe as Jar Jar Binks.

As a Jew who has been (wrongly!) accused of being "pro-Hamas," I gotta say that I find it terrifying that the federal government can just disappear someone for being pro-Palestinian and there is no political outcry from elected Democrats.

Marisa Kabas @marisakabas.bsky.social · Mar 10

My fear is that the Trump administration arrested Mahmoud Khalil to make an example out of him because they’re gambling Dems won’t put their jobs and lives on the line to protect a Palestinian.

My view is that the American South never fully took to liberal democracy. And I think we have to reckon with that to face the moment we’re now in. I wrote about it for @thebulwark.bsky.social

Waiting for Liberal Democracy in the American South

Our country’s constitutional order is withering before us. In the states of the former Confederacy, democracy never fully flourished.

Embrace Maia Thought because this is literally, 100%, not in an abstract theory sort of way but simply straightforwardly true and everyone can see it.

Trumpism is built around the promise that you will never have to hear anyone say "no."

Trumpism is Rape As Political Praxis and military annexation is part of the package

Alan Elrod @aselrod.bsky.social · Mar 5

It’s actually not possible to decouple Trump’s expansionist talk from what he did in the Oval last week. America abandoning its security commitments and siding with Russia is not separable from the menace posed by America expressing a desire to annex Greenland, Canada, or the Panama Canal.

this has broken me. the stupidest fucking thing i’ve ever heard in my life. the plane that carried out the first atomic bomb attack—which killed 100,000+ Japanese civilians—is cancelled because it’s woke.

(the plane was named after the pilot’s mother. this is common knowledge.)

Brian Tyler Cohen @briantylercohen.bsky.social · Mar 7

The US military has removed photos of the B-29 bomber “Enola Gay” — which dropped the first atomic bomb on Japan — apparently because it contains the word “gay,” which violates their new anti-DEI rules.

War heroes and military firsts are among 26,000 images flagged for removal in Pentagon's DEI purge

References to a World War II Medal of Honor recipient, the Enola Gay aircraft that dropped an atomic bomb on Japan and women and minorites are among the tens of thousands of photos and online posts ma...
