We screamed in Atlanta. We shouted, we protested, we signed the largest petition in city history. All to ask you not to give more money and infrastructure to a growing police state. And a Democratic run city laughed in our face. All to ignore the screams. And now we’ll all hear the screaming forever
Atlanta activists helped elect Dem president and two Senators, including first Black Senator in the Deep South since Reconstruction. One of those Senators backed Cop City. When the Dem mayor suppressed votes against it, the other Senator did nothing but write a letter that said nothing.

Please stop using language that suggests that people with criminal records are appropriate targets for this administration's violence. One in three adults has a criminal record. Stop playing sacrifice games with fascists. Stop surrendering entire categories of people in your own mind.

MAGA is fueled by the delusional belief that white guys are victims. Their leader is the most powerful victim in the world.

Oftentimes they mean when a (white) person faces any consequence at all, including criticism, for wrongdoing.
A reminder that when most people talk about being "cancelled" or "ruined" or having their careers "destroyed", what they mean is having to face even the possibility of having to live like a normal working person
There's a vast continuum of employment between "West Coast editor for VANITY FAIR" and "unemployable pauper." There's nothing in the world preventing Olivia Nuzzi from taking a certification course and getting a job as a medical technician, or a locksmith, or an accountant.

A lot of people are going to walk away from the Ghislaine Maxwell coverage with the impression that our prison system isn’t punitive enough but I’d say it highlights how most everyone else is treated with *deliberate* cruelty.

The parent is at fault for being unhoused, the teen is at fault for wanting braces, and the victim is the rich and powerful white guy who's suffered no legal consequences.
A teenager in Florida with a homeless parent wanted money for braces and ended up having sex for money with powerful men, setting off a chain of events that would have a dramatic impact on her life and help upend the political career of Representative Matt Gaetz. nyti.ms/49PSkL9

According to the car wash owner, agents arrested employees before they could obtain their documentation from their work lockers. So many were likely here legally.

This perfectly encapsulates how I feel living in the US. The republican party is an insane death cult, the democratic party is 3 corporations in a trench coat, and the "socialists" are just the completely normal left-wing capitalists you'd find in any of 2 dozen European nations.
Europeans recognize Zohran Mamdani’s supposedly radical policies as ‘normal’
Critics of New York City’s mayor-elect have said his pledges of free bus service and universal childcare are unrealistic, but in Europe it’s a given

white America is and has always been powered by fascism, and I’m not sorry if saying that upsets you

It really is amazing that when a popular young Democratic politician who wants to solve real problems for people beats an old-guard institutionalist Democrat in a primary, the institutionalist Democrat just stays in the race and basically runs as a Republican.

The likeliest net result of comparing Mamdani to Nazis isn't going to be that every Democrat is suddenly convinced Mamdani is a Nazi but that all of your accusations are meaningless and more Zohrans will get elected

Relatedly, the same thing is true for Dem Party consultants and donors.
one way to understand media coverage of the second trump administration is that, this time around, it's really only tracking with the bottom right chart

That Bannon and Sanders have the same anti-immigrant program makes clear that the “socialism” advanced by Sanders, and his supporters in the Democratic Socialists of America, has nothing to do with socialism.

MSM ignore the hard edge to have "civil debates" with the pundits about the rights and humanity of marginalized people.
This is the hard edge, while the “we must abandon identity” pundits are the soft edge of the same movement.

Dems still would rather lose with a fash lite coalition than move left and win.
Duh. Those of us on the ground last year actually speaking with middle class/working class voters and who heard from these voters every single day the same - “Trump is an asshole, but Democrats are out of touch” - could’ve saved my new political party a lot of time & money producing this “report.”👇

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.
Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net
