Got the morbs.
The rehabilitation of George W. Bush‘s reputation by young people who’ve turned him into some goofy grandpa has always unsettled me.

The fact that so many of them are now saying “well the Venezuelans are celebrating this” just confirms that leaving the children behind was the point.

So, who’s gonna bring a 14th amendment challenge to this new USPS postmark rule? My old South Shore Chicago post office has notorious staffing problems, which will clearly impact the EQUAL PROTECTION of south side-based citizens under this new rule.

SB 79 seems to be working as intended: pushing out long-term working class residents so greedy landlords and developers can make a buck.

It’s absolutely disgusting what’s happening in LA’s Koreatown neighborhood.

But, build more, amirite @scottwiener.bsky.social?

Someone should tell Jimmy Bowman over here that it’s “Alex,” not “Jose,” and in the future… “Senator” will do just fine.

Every single member of Congress, Democrat and Republican alike, who has not unequivocally condemned the assault on Senator Alex Padilla today is a coward.

Episode two of “The Internet is filled with deeply unserious people.”

Dude is literally doing his job as chair of oversight, but because he’s not giving canned speeches that make people feel a way, he’s “not doing anything.” 🥸

Hi! Media studies / mass comm professor, here.

Public speaking and mass communication are two different beasts.

Different audience characteristics.

Different medium affordances that impact message diffusion and receipt.

Different capacity for influence.

Let’s remember that.

The best Tulsi moment of all time is when Hillary Clinton said "It's a shame there's a Russian asset in the 2020 primary" and Tulsi responded "How dare you call me a Russian asset!" Which was strange, because Clinton never mentioned her name....
Y'all the history I have with Tulsi's stans and their obvious Russian ratfucking/shilling is too damn large for this thread, but trust me when I say, it is *wild* she was *ever* on stage as a Dem primary candidate.

I'll do a thread on it at some point. Just wild levels of fuckery surround her.

Bernie-
Who platformed Tulsi Gabbard & made her a fellow at his Sanders Institute

Who says elections are rigged when he doesn’t win

Who said Trump voters aren’t racist or sexist…

Who describes southern Dem voters as “low info voters” when they don’t vote for him🤔

You're going to platform Bernie - who can’t stop talking about his beloved white working class, & who also gave his followers the green light in the days before the 2016 election that they wouldn’t be racist or sexist if they voted for Trump..?
