Attention working-class Americans:
Republicans’ new budget does NOT include no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, or no tax on Social Security.
Instead it protects tax handouts for billionaires and makes way for the largest Medicaid cut in history.

Damned right.
The greatest political scandal today is not what Trump is doing. It is the fact that congressional Republicans have given up their role in the constitutional system as a check on the executive branch. If we are in a constitutional crisis, it is as much on Mike Johnson and John Thune as anyone else.

As aghast and stricken as all the major news outlets are at the insanity of Trump’s pics, it sure as fuck would have been nice if those same outlet’s hadn’t spend the year before the election downplaying the risk of this exact scenario.

I get the pushback to Bluesky in that it further bifurcates our media ecosystem. But at this point, Twitter’s content moderation is so nonexistent and its verified users so extreme that the choice becomes either move away from Twitter or be subjected to straight up 4chan nazi bile on a daily basis.

Almost half the country is now being held hostage by a rapist felon because we were out-voted by the slimmest majority, by lazy, stupid, sexist, bigots.

Two things I'm thankful for:
1. Kamala. After the dark days of Biden's debate, she gave us 3 months of pure joy. Yes, we came up short. But it sure was fun.
2. Bluesky. A bright light in a dark time. Not sure where we'd be right now (mentally) without it. Truly the start of something beautiful.
