Our beloved Alice Wong has joined the ancestors. It was one of the great honors of my life to call Alice my friend, co-author & co-conspirator. She was a true genius, a force of nature the likes of which the world has never seen before. I love you, Alice, and am equal parts grateful and devastated

It’s funny that Harvard has been a consistent target for reactionary campaigns, and not one has been dedicated to ousting Larry Summers, an openly political figure who was friends with Jeffrey Epstein; meanwhile, it’s a fine-toothed comb for *checks notes* Black women.

People in this thread are misinterpreting the fuck outta this. It's a rhetorical question, and he's pointing out that it wouldn't be a progressive.

Like, yeah, Schumer has to go, even just as a message. But Bernie isn't wrong here, nothing will change because sensible people are in short supply.
JAKE TAPPER: Do you still have confidence in Chuck Schumer as leader of the Senate?

BERNIE SANDERS: If Schumer steps down, who is going to take his place?

I'm here outside Speaker Johnson’s office because he is starving families and gutting health care to cover up the Epstein Files.

Change my mind.

ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections

every phone, laptop or other similar device should be required to have battery that takes no more than 1 standard screw driver to remove, and should have a hardware cut off switch for any cameras and microphones.

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador.

Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

It was abundantly clear from the data available that “mass deportation” would never be about catching the “worst of the worst” criminals. I knew the stories to come would be terrible, but there’s really no way to emotionally prepare for the reality of it.

Going forward, I'm going to steal whatever I want until someone expressly tells me they would like to opt out from me robbing them.
