okay so here's the thing:
1) y'all need to start fighting folks
2) y'all need to STOP farming out entrepreneurship to others. you aren't actually an entrepreneur when you do this.

IMO those Free Gaza protestors are being paid by Democratic persons of interest to knock Kamala Harris out of the way and clear the field for their chosen nominee

This isn’t the behavior of someone who is tap dancing for votes. IF she runs again, she’s going to have all the white people turning red in the face, clutching their pearls and taking to the fainting couches. Especially Democratic strategists, consultants and pundunces.

Pritzker should respond with “stand up and say that to my face”

Veronica McDonald @veronicamcdonald.bsky.social · 10h

If Pritzker said “Man roll away from me with this” everyone would surely be in an uproar:

Now Abbott will get away with this but Pritzker zing his ass in response and the media will hit the fainting couches with the quickness.

Two sets of rules guys.

They caught Candiace live on air as the news broke and at the time it was being reported this was over $300 of merch. Candiace needs to be happy to be away from that atmosphere: #RHOP

The Truth ⚖️ 🐝 @pattykazusa.bsky.social · 10h

This is crazy but it wouldn’t surprise me. All HW have huge egos but Wendy was extra. If true she and Eddie allegedly purchased items, returned them, & then claimed they were stolen.

The Carroll County Sheriff’s offices expressed doubts about Dr. Wendy & Eddie’s account of how the burglar entered from the 2nd floor window

They said there should’ve been some sort of disturbance but there was none #RHOP

Can you put into words what that purpose is? You and the frog have really become icons of this protest.

There’s been a nice overall whimsy that has shown up. The frog is amazing. We had a bunch of other inflatable people here last night, too. I saw people playing Twister the other day.

What they rely on is fear. So by coming out in an absurdist manner, it speaks to them, to some extent, that we’re actually not that afraid.

It also dismantles their narrative a little bit. When they try to describe this situation as “war-torn,” it becomes much harder to take them seriously when they have to post a video saying [U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security] Kristi Noem is up on the balcony staring over the Antifa Army and it’s, like, eight journalists and five protesters and one of them is in a chicken suit.

While Republicans continue to avoid negotiations on reopening the government, the Senate is still voting.

Last night, our ROAD to Housing Act passed out of the Senate.

We need to give Americans a new way home— passing this legislation is a vital step forward.

After AIPAC spent millions to defeat her, Cori Bush is running again.

Her voice led movements to stop evictions and demand peace.

Now she’s running again because our future deserves leaders with courage.
