Hate Musk for ruining Twitter. Hoping this is where the cool kids are now (and by cool I mean not Nazis). Work in entertainment, a practical progressive, looking to connect with like minded nice people.
Never watched these guys before (although knew who they were and how they’ve been having lots of right leaning guests on), but listened to this entire thing and Pete just NAILS it. Prime example of needing to go to these spaces and he’s a master communicator. Watch!

It’s hard for me to believe this is a “radical, leftist, socialist, commie” way to think.

“The Trump Crash” - @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social I hope you are strategizing on the phone right now to nail the Dem messaging across the board tomorrow and gathering the entire Senate and House to address Americans demanding Congress take back Tariff power.

Let's repeat it for folks in the back.
When Bill Clinton cut 300,000 + jobs from the federal workforce, he did it with the APPROVAL of Congress after review and a VOTE!
He did NOT illegally take it upon himself to drastically slash entire agencies and programs - with NO plan for continued service.

Why would a leader tank his own country's economy?

It's a key part of the aspiring autocrat's playbook.

Tariffs & chaos mean more power & control for Trump.

But America has no king. The Republican-led Congress can stop this at any time.

Let your reps hear from you.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.

No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.

Trump thought to himself ‘I bet I can make it the GREATEST Depression’

Today is one of those days I don’t want to speak to a single person who voted for Trump (not that I know many but I know a few). My mom is so nervous as someone who lives off retirement funds and small amounts of social security. My industry will be further decimated by a recession. 😡

I feel like we are all on a runaway train headed towards a cliff and all the doors are locked and a madman is our conductor.

Between Booker showing us leadership and Crawford winning (and I’m sure making Elon drown himself to sleep in Ketamine) today may have been the first good day for Dems in 2025. Now I can’t wait for the Tesla report in the morning.

Schumer needs to step aside today and let someone like Booker become senate minority leader.

It’s important that we DO praise Dems when they are doing more of what we want instead of just bash them when they are failing. It will encourage more to follow suit. There is a wide open gap in leadership for any ambitious Dem. And with that - THANK YOU Cory Booker @booker.senate.gov

what booker is doing right now is an example of what i mean when i say things like “we need more ambition right now.” there is room in american politics right now for people with ambition to take big stands and reap the rewards. he’s doing it!

Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary.

I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought.

Our economy is far larger than it was decades ago.

Where have most of the gains gone? To the top.

Any path forward must include a fight to restructure the economy toward more widely shared prosperity.

This isn’t a blue state vs. red state phenomenon. It’s a class phenomenon.

Listen. All I know is this guy and some other random dude showed up to the #TeslaTakedown in Irvine and one of the workers came out and was whispering in his ear. He just held the very generic sign and didn’t say a word when protestors asked why he loved Elon. They accuse us of being paid 🤔🤷‍♀️
