A lot of the people lamenting Marjorie Taylor Greene’s departure from Congress—and celebrating her as some kind of principled maverick—are going to end up eating their words when she reemerges in 2028 to help lead a pro-groper, pro-Fuentes “America First” faction of the GOP.

This is very fucking concerning.
President Trump’s appointed EEOC chair, Andrea Lucas, is shifting the agency’s priorities to fighting anti-Christian bias and diversity programs. And now she has the power to do more.

I cried in Texas tonight...same way I did in 2008 when Obama won the presidency. Happy tears. Proud tears. Hopeful tears. I am so excited to watch what Mayor-elect Mamdani does for NYC and ultimately, for our country.
AOC/Mamdani will be an amazing ticket one day.

We need a new generation of leaders who are the voices of democracy, freedom, social justice, & the rule of law.
A new generation that renews the “we” in “we the people.”
Instead of fretting over Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic Party should embrace him as part of its future.

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions
"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

Today marks 30 days of the Republicans’ shutdown.
Now, 42 million Americans, including 3.5 million Texans, are at risk of losing access to SNAP.
Enough with the games. It’s time for them to show up and do their damn jobs.

Are any of the national grocery chains lobbying on behalf of SNAP recipients?
Maybe we should all stop buying food until everyone can. Stick to what's absolutely necessary...

"For every meal that a food bank provides, the SNAP program provides nine. There's no way we can meet that gap. There's no way we can replace every single one of those meals. It is not sustainable for food banks to fill this gap. We were not built to do this."

This dark time should wake us up to the bankruptcy of the corporate Democratic Party. It should mark the birth of the people’s Democratic Party. Zohran Mamdani and others like him are its future. Some thoughts...

🧵🧵 MPOX

Three cases of Mpox Clade 1 confirmed in Los Angeles this month, none with recent foreign travel.
That suggests *local spread* is happening.
People here already have it and have transmitted it.
This is concerning - let’s delve in.

A potentially more severe strain of mpox may be spreading in L.A. County
It’s the first time this particular type of mpox, known as “Clade I,” has been found in the United States among people who had no history of traveling overseas to high-risk areas.
