thought this was the guy who wasn't gonna bow down to Republicans

Clipping from article that states: "Newsom dismissed Assembly Bill 86, a measure that would have tweaked language about health education standards for kindergarten through 8th grade. Republicans latched onto the legislation as an example of “gender ideology” at work in state government, with the Senate Minority Leader Brian Jones (R) demanding Newsom veto it."

not sure you can really classify this as an "own goal" when liberal institutions seem to be more or less okay with what's happening now so long as they still get paid

Jake Grumbach @jakemgrumbach.bsky.social · 4d

Pretty incredible own goal by liberal institutions and many Democratic electeds to crush the exact type of protests in 2024 that would’ve been the most effective way to slow or stop ICE incursions into American cities in 2025

Stephen Miller: "All that bullshit is done, over, it's finished. The gangbangers you deal with- they think they're ruthless? They have no idea how ruthless we are. They think they're tough? They have no idea how tough we are. They think they're hardcore? We are so much more hardcore than they are"

if i had a job that required me to protect the interests of millions of people & my constant failures led to more and more harm coming their way

i would realize i'm not a good fit for the job & would try to find a replacement that could actually safeguard the wellbeing of the people dependent on me

when obvious incompetence becomes a pattern it can no longer be excused by inadequacy

if they actually cared about what their positions of power represented they would resign from their post & allow a competent successor to take their place

in absence of that, the only conclusion can be complicity

a competent successor to these two would try them legally for complicity in the erosion of our democratic process

Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan.bsky.social · 10d

So far today, Chuck Schumer has said his strategy for preventing Trump sending troops into blue cities is to win over Republican senators (!) while Hakeem Jeffries praised Eric Adams's courage and authenticity (!!) while refusing to endorse Mamdani. Again.

These two gotta go.

the political policy cure for “male loneliness” is

- more time to hang with the fellas (4 day work week)

- more money to spend with the fellas (higher wages)

- more things to do with the fellas (taxing the rich and building 3rd spaces)

it's still useful to take advantage of the bipartisan interest in releasing the Epstein files -

but you always have to keep in the back of your mind the possibility that once the enemy of your enemy is gone, they're no longer your friend

for many conservatives, the reprehensible actions of Epstein / Maxwell & their associates are useful insofar as they can be used as a bludgeon to hit Democrats with

a good many of them clearly don't mind if their side does it

they elected his best friend!

you underestimate how many on the political right wish they could get away with what epstein did

Angry @angrystaffer.bsky.social · 12d

If a full accounting of Epstein’s crimes - and his accomplices - is ever made public, people on the left and the right are going to feel really dumb that we’ve been arguing with each other while the elites of both parties pal around and do abhorrent shit.
