I'm a bit late to the game on this, and I'm not even a hard-core Halo fan. The show was OK-ish.
I will stand ten-toes down on one thing though: Red vs Blue did it SO MUCH BETTER.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social don't you dare fuck this up! @repjasmine.bsky.social had better be the new chair of the oversight committee. DO NOT REPEAT PELOSI'S MISTAKE. And speaking of @pelosi.house.gov, you stay out of this!!!!

Learning Mandarin so I can curse up a storm like they do in Firefly has been super cathartic. 10/10 recommend.

So, I'm a voter in the district you're running for. I'd like to know what made you switch from conservative to running under the Democratic ticket. I've had a chance to peruse your website and I share similar thoughts on the issues you highlighted. Just curious why you flipped. Thanks!
When I ran in 2016, I was a conservative. Even then I spoke out against the executive branch having too much power in response to the many people admiring Trump and his approach to the presidency. This is not a partisan issue, the president shouldn’t have this much authority. It’s time, #impeach

The IMF warns that the global economy will enter a "new era" of "significantly" slower economic growth because of President Trump's economic policies.

They forecast that global growth will decline 2.8% this year and 3% next year because of Trump's tariffs.

The Utah State Constitution does NOT say that "parents have the primary responsibility for the education of their children.”

That statement appears in Utah Code 53-E-2-201.

Rep. Pierucci came up with Utah's school voucher program that was just ruled unconstitutional.

So many people are basically saying "we have to defend Abrego Garcia's due process rights so they'll give white people due process rights when they come for us" which is appalling, actually, because THEY CAME FOR HIM AND PEOPLE LIKE HIM ALREADY AND THEY ARE HUMAN BEINGS WHO SHOULD BE DEFENDED.

Bernie, it would go a LONG WAY if you DIDN'T remove pro-palestine protestors from your rallies. In a time when our freedom of speech is being suppressed, it would mean a lot if you showed grace and support for those protestors instead of letting police silence them.

Maybe, but who has the time? And having the police do it seems like a waste of resources.
This is very weird.

Sen. Mike Lee usually posts on Xitter like an attention-starved teenager hopped up on caffeinated soda.

He hasn’t posted in the last 16 hours.

Someone needs to do wellness check.

I'm not a die-hard fan of @booker.senate.gov but the man deserves his flowers. He was literally doing the job he was elected to do and he helped elevate more than just his constituents voices. My senators certainly don't give a shit about my voice. Thanks for the moral boost. 👍🏻

I helped build a government AI system. DOGE fired me, rolled the AI out to the whole agency, and implied the AI can do my job and the jobs of the others they've fired.

It can't. But, what DOGE accidentally revealed about themselves in the process is fascinating. 🧵

Now that I am finished screaming into the void about schooling for kids with disabilities being assigned to RFK: understand what this means.

He’s lumping accommodations into HHS, meaning those needs are now considered medicalized. Different from everyday education.

This is eugenics.
