Hail, Hail Rock 'n Roll (Or: Todd Snider Rules)
I loved every Todd Snider show I saw, and I saw dozens of them. I loved every chance I ever had to talk with him, and therewere many. He died November 14 and a whole bunch of us are going to miss him ...

So MAGA, You see these two? One of them is your dear leader, the other is a Prince in a country where CHRISTIANITY IS BANNED. Where you can be arrested for being a CHRISTIAN, for displaying CHRISTIAN symbols and even, for having a bible.

I am so angry that so many people think this is ok. How is this not a bigger story!?!?
I do in fact need to point out Trump’s breathtaking misogyny. Yes it’s to be expected from a serial abuser of women. Yes it’s what we fully expect from our Abuser-in-Chief.
But ceasing to call it out is its own form of normalization and acceptance.
So you better believe I’m gonna call it out.

When asked if there was anything "incriminating" in Epstein's emails, Trump pointed a finger in a female reporter's face and snapped. 'Quiet. Quiet, Piggy.'

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.

Most of us have no idea how bad it is inside ICE detention centers because they have kept it hidden. Then a truth teller shows up and says it plain.
The conditions are filthy. The treatment is inhumane. The abuse is Systematic and routine.

I remember a time (not too long ago) that we had the collective moral decency to agree, that if a politician spoke this way to a female reporter, that would be the end of their political career.

HOPECORE: My generation (on occasion lol), GEN Z, has the lowest racial resentment of ANY generation. This is why bigots are working overtime to sow lies and division.

2/🧵 New piece with @jakemgrumbach.bsky.social in @NewRepublic: We analyzed 60,000+ respondents in the 2024 Cooperative Election Study. Gen Z has the lowest racial resentment of any generation. The generational shift overwhelms the education divide that supposedly defines modern politics.
The Shocking Truth About Gen Z Voters Is That They’re Pretty Great
Stop panicking: They are the most progressive generation ever, especially on race. If that surprises you, you’ve been listening to the wrong story.
