Progressive, populist, pragmatist and p***ed off.

I'm not a liberal. I'm definitely not a neo-liberal, or a conservative, or a neo-con. I'm not an anarchist, a capitalist, or even a socialist, though I have come closer to that definition a few times. I guess I'm an idealist, because my opinion on most issues is determined by my core beliefs.
"Why" is a powerful tool in fighting creeping fascism among your friends and family. When someone parrots a right wing talking point, ask.tj.why they think it's a good idea, and don't let them idk the answer. Push them to think it through.

Your regular reminder that almost everything Trump is getting away with is not because of presidential strength, but because of congressional weakness and judicial deference.

The constitutional tools are already there to fix this, but those who can fix it are refusing to do so.

Seriously, this is one of the biggest highlights of my time in politics.

@aoc.bsky.social has such an incredible future, and I'm here for it.

Look at this excitement in Utah. More Democrats need to take notes.

Loving this!
AOC: And you know who from Utah voted for that? Both of your senators—Mike Lee and John Curtis

Crowd: Boooo

AOC: They know that’s not what you want. But they also know they’re not there to serve the working class—they’re there to serve themselves and the billionaires who paid them

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says he has “100% hatred” toward Russian leader Vladimir Putin.

“How else can you see a person who came here and murdered our people, murdered children?” says Zelenskyy. https://cbsn.ws/3YyaIlp

I feel like Shakespeare’s Ophelia sometimes, yelling into the void about TESCREAL, Dark Enlightenment, network cities, etc.

No-one is paying enough serious attention to this nihilistic philosophy that drives many of the “broligarchs.”

And it all smacks of the most ridiculous conspiracy theories.

@aoc.bsky.social: We must acknowledge the terrifying moment we are in right now. What we are hearing and seeing with our own eyes is, in fact, happening. We are watching our neighbors, students, and friends being fired, targeted, and disappeared. It is real.

Great job this administration is doing. Running the debt up and the economy down. Believe this: every penny somebody loses gets found by somebody else... Usually somebody much, much richer...
If I were working my ass off as a migrant worker- paying into the system that’s now hunting me down, I wouldn’t file either.

It’s suicidal.

Bernie spitting truth... Stop telling us how great the economy is on Wall Street while we can't pay rent and buy groceries out of the same paycheck.
In America last year, nearly 40 million workers made less than $17 an hour. Unacceptable.

Nobody in America can make it on $7.25 an hour, $9 an hour or $12 an hour.

We need an economy in which all of our workers earn a living wage.

Last night I wrote about Abrego Garcia’s case. Today, SCOTUS confirmed it’s true. Even though their stay is just temporary, he remains in cruel & unusual conditions in a foreign prison with no recourse. It could happen to any of us. joycevance.substack.com/p/the-week-a...
