Tim Walz privately arguing for Democrats to “be more visible on television presenting an alternate vision of governing — not just complaining about what Mr. Trump is doing.”

The USA has had two major plane crashes in the last 4 days.

The USA had previously not suffered a major plane crash for 16 years.

‘DEI’ programs have existed for decades.

So what was it that changed in the last 14 days or so to suddenly cause so many crashes?

Marco Rubio is visiting Panama this weekend to try to annex the Panama Canal.

Panama is currently bracing for an American invasion and is warning there could be mass casualties.

The U.S. is acting like Russia when it invaded Ukraine—and is making the world less safe in the process.

Just a reminder of some of the context around the TikTok ban: In 2020, Trump tried to ban it via executive order a couple months after K-pop fans used it to organize fake signups to Trump’s Tulsa rally, which led him to publicly overestimate how large the crowd size would be.

the TikTok algorithm is so good that it even served up the perfect video to act as the background for its ban announcement

If Trump brings back TikTok, Dems are fucked.

What a stupid thing to do.

BREAKING: Judge Cannon has blocked the release of Jack Smith's report to the public.

This is absolutely shameful. The public deserves to see the report.

85% of Democratic voters support Medicare for All. Yet, it’s not a part of the official DNC platform.

ABC (Disney), Washington Post (Bezos), Meta (Zuckerberg), LA Times (Soon-Shiong)... all bending the knee to Trump, all obeying in advance, all sucking up to the Dictator-in-Waiting.

This is (part of) how democracies die. This is the Orban, Putin, Netanyahu and Modi playbooks.

It's really disappointing how quiet the democratic leadership has been since their loss. Like this is when people need to be stepping up...

Thou shalt not pretend that wanting everyone to have healthcare is “radical.”

If you're more upset with Biden being forced to consider the extraordinary step of peremptorily pardoning his own officials then you are about Trump appointing someone who’s promised to use the federal govt to exact personal retribution for Trump, then you need to think a little more critically.

Ford pardoned Nixon. GHWB pardoned the Iran-Contra crew. Clinton pardoned Marc Rich and his half brother. Trump pardoned Steve Bannon, Mike Flynn, Roger Stone, and Charles Fucking Kushner!

Joe Biden pardoning his own son doesn't come close to any of those truly controversial pardons. Get a grip.

Some Democrats think the party has gone too far left and needs to readjust towards the “center.”

Rubbish.

Where’s the center between democracy and oligarchy, and why would Democrats want to be there?

The fact that China doesn't like people switching to Bluesky seems like another sign that it's a great thing

I love that history is meant to help us learn from our mistakes and yet I seem to remember learning about another time period where tariffs were largely used. I wonder what happened back then? Can't wait to live in the equivalent of a Hooverville... 😍
