There is a species of democrat that would rather spend the rest of their lives praying at the alter of any rebublican that says a negative thing about trump than devote one cent or second of their time to a progressive candidate in their own state who has been on the right side of history from jump.

I have long said people don't be hatin Chief Justice John Roberts as much as they should be hatin Chief Justice John Roberts
“Roberts has been embedding white-dominant authoritarianism into the country’s source code for two decades. It’s impossible to imagine today’s crisis without the Roberts court having first undermined the foundations of our democracy.”
This all on the leader of the MAGA #scotus ↘️

Few things bug me more than higher ed leaders saying that we lost our mission and lost the trust of the public, when we have actually been the target of a decades-long smear campaign by the right wing that worked. The moment we’re losing our mission is right now, in capitulation.

Huh. Interesting.
Confirmed: Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) plans to move to censure Rep. Cory Mills (R-Fla.) today.
Plan is to move to do it tonight as a "privileged" matter, meaning it can be brought to the floor for a vote without first going through a committee.

It was Miami Herald local reporter Julie Brown @jkbjournalist.bsky.social who actually covered the Epstein story and blew it wide open. She cared about the victims and Epstein's crimes, not access.
National outlets not only didn't, they refused to. They thought it was tawdry and beneath them.

Covering Jamal Khashoggi's murder was one of the most disturbing things I've worked on. Hearing Trump say he was "extremely controversial" and people "didn't like him" is chilling. Hard to take any other way than he thinks there is moral ambiguity in the murder of a journalist.

I like to read memoirs about people who are not like me. A book by a lesbian professional dominatrix fits that bill. Chris Belcher’s story is riveting and says so much about the interplay between gender, power, and desire in and out of the dungeon.
