Hi, BS! It’s my birthday and I want more followers (I’m shallow) so I’m doing the introduction thing:

I’m 55 today, so 💯Gen X. Used to call myself an actor but it turns out I just liked hanging out with theater people. Now I do PR for architects.

I ran for Congress once.

Trump on Mamdani: "I think he's gonna surprise some conservative people, actually. And some very liberal people he won't surprise because they already like him."

We need to follow the money.

JP Morgan CEO Jaime Dimon and those Wall Street bankers must testify under oath about their financing of Jeffrey Epstein.

They say that porn helped drive early adapters to emerging technologies like the VCR and the internet. AI is different that that. Sure, there's AI porn out there... but AI is proving most appealing to people who get off on something else: Fascism.

Yesterday, Trump defended the Saudi Crown Prince in the Oval Office.

He said he had “nothing” to do with the murder of Jamal Khashoggi.

But I reviewed a call while serving on Trump’s NSC that I believe would be of interest to the Khashoggi family and the American people.

Release the transcript.

Rep. Thomas Massie calls out Trump: "He can release these files without the Senate acting."

Hell yes. Now if they could just restock it, please and thank you. I would like to buy more of the Magic in-universe space-opera-themed set that sold out absurdly quickly when it was released, and would like to do so at my lgs.

One of the most disingenuous arguments you will ever hear is when an opponent of your point of view re: collective policy says “Well why aren’t you doing it?” Examples: “Go fight for Ukraine personally, then” or “Invite a refugee family into your house, then.”

You do not have to hand it to the Catholic bishops. In the same meeting, they banned gender affirming care at all Catholic hospitals nationwide.

I think we need to start visualizing the Trump Presidency ending, and socialize it. For it is the right thing to do for the country and the American people.
At this point we have to assume that if the Epstein files are released they will
- end the Trump Presidency
- implicate many other prominent Republicans
- destroy the careers of AG Bondi and his other defenders
This is beginning to feel like the greatest scandal in American history.
Trump has done enormous harm to the country.
He is a deeply corrupt and venal man.
He is wildly unpopular, his agenda more so. He's lost the consent of the governed.
He is old, infirm & clearly no longer mentally competent to run a nation.

It is time now to start talking about him moving on👇

There is nothing “clean” about the Continuing Resolution that was passed tonight.

Sure, it reopens the government—but it does nothing to address the healthcare crisis that Republicans created.

Important to understand the Epstein stuff and the fascism and the corruption are, in a lot of ways, really all the same story from different angles: powerful men who can and do abuse vulnerable people around them because they can, and because systems of elite accountability catastrophically failed

“If Schumer really wanted to use his considerable influence and leverage to stop this, he could have done that,” a senior Democratic Senate aide tells Zeteo. “He didn’t.”
Furious Liberals Call for Schumer to Step Aside, Senate Dems Mostly Quiet
After their shutdown surrender, liberal lawmakers are begging their base to unite behind them anyway – as Trumpland celebrates that their opposition is a bunch of 'p*ssies.'

Resign.
Democrats have been fighting for months to address America's healthcare crisis

For the millions who will lose coverage
For people with cancer who won't get the care they need
For working families who can't afford to pay $25K more a year for healthcare

We will keep fighting

I left voicemails for my senators, Schumer and Gillibrand. Got out of my sickbed to do it. (They’ll hear me coughing, if they listen)

I called my senators and left voicemails, Schumer and Gillibrand. I hope they are paying attention.
Call the United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and they will connect you with your senator's office.

If you're represented by one of the squishier centrists, be sure to make a call. Now.
Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.
