Remember: The recipe for economic growth isn’t tax cuts for the rich. It’s investment in our people — in health care, infrastructure and education — to build a strong middle class.
You don't grow the economy through trickle-down nonsense.

"'They’re spending more money than I would even tax them,' [Mamdani] said in an interview with MSNBC last week."
This is the message. Make it clear that these billionaires aren't just worried about losing money. They're worried about losing the ability to exchange their money for power.

Still thinking about that Pages catch that should have been a disaster. That wedged ball from last night. Error after error after error. A Kershaw inning. An 18 inning war of attrition. An extra innings game 7. Shohei Ohtani & Mookie Betts DOG SHIT. WILL KLEIN?!??!

Yoshinobu Yamamoto is the first pitcher in MLB history to win 3 games ON THE ROAD in a single World Series.
Yoshinobu Yamamoto is the first pitcher to win 3 games in a single World Series since Randy Johnson in 2001. Johnson won Game 2 and Game 6 as a starter and Game 7 as a reliever. Yamamoto did the same.

Kristi Noem is flat-out lying when she claims no U.S. citizen has been arrested in her violent crackdown. Do a web search on “immigration citizen arrested” and you’ll see. Here’s one of the many documented reports we found.

BREAKING: Democrats just tried to pass a standalone bill to fund WIC & SNAP to make sure families don't go hungry during the Republican shutdown.
Republicans BLOCKED it. So Trump won't use emergency funds to keep SNAP running, and Republicans won't let any bills pass. Shameful.

This may be a bit myopically focused on policy and material outcomes, but I think it points mostly in the right direction. You can make the public care about ALL KINDS OF THINGS, but you’ve gotta be willing to “stoke conflict and controversy” first.

Wait, he reached nine times? Nine fucking times?
I know people on here and on the broadcast are doing the whole "Ohtani is not hitting aside from two games" thing, but now that it's him winning three games being borderline the solo offense, I don't think it really applies.

I've been working with Demos to turn the Verification, Deliberation, and Accountability (VDA) Framework into a report that lays out how it can be used to diagnose the state of democracy and build solutions around building the capacity for those functions in institutional and public spaces.
🧵 Across the world, democracy isn’t just under pressure, it’s facing epistemic collapse: a breakdown in the shared ability to know what’s true, to reason together and to hold power to account.
A new guest paper by @eliothiggins.bsky.social and @drnataliemartin.bsky.social explores how to fix it.
