hard not to notice that as trump's polls crater and gop gets crushed in election after election, news orgs are not racing around hiring progressive commenters and boasting about how they're reaching out to real americans by following the will of the volk.

Minneapolis, and the nation as a whole, are acting like battered wives.
“Don’t take the bait” is nothing more than blaming the victim for the unpredictable, irrational and traumatic behavior of Trump and his goons.
I wish I knew the way forward…

🧵 Despite all that's bad in the world right now, the victory of Zohran Mamdani after having everything thrown at him by Trump and his allies shows that there are signs of hope.
Democrats can have even more hope by actually learning from Mamdani—and from Trump. @espiers.bsky.social and I discussed.

The next #NoKings protest should be called “Rob Reiner was right” day.
It would really piss off the 🍊turd because it wouldn’t necessarily be a day about just the 🍊 turd.

Sometimes I think about how many people were convinced that the Vice President of the United States lost the presidential election because she didn’t contort herself to do this show.
If it’s true it says a lot about this country.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

Home Depot and Target really enabled our family to get through Covid lockdown without relying on Amazon. Our family spending on Target and Amazon at this point is asympotic to $0; and now, buh-bye to Home Depot.

Companies like this do not deserve your hard earned money.

The Home Depot continues to allow ICE to terrorize the communities they pretend to serve. Let’s show them the same kindness we did to target!

At some point, a journalist needs to ask Johnson “you regularly claim you have no idea what your own government is doing. If we take you at your word, how are you so poorly informed, and do you this level of ignorance should disqualify you as speaker?”

Q: What's your message to the 170 US citizens who have been detained by ICE? About 20 of them are children
MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know what you're talking about with the children. I haven't seen that so I'm not going to comment on it.

It's still incredible that conservatism became people who are such fuckin' losers they're alienated by the most incredible society that's ever existed. That conquered the whole world with nothing but its attractiveness, and they've burnt it all because they felt left out. -OS
