Am I understanding this right that it funds Trump priorities for a year and everything else thru Jan 30?

Wait, this funds Trump priorities for a year and everything else for 2 months?

Credit to Soglin for clocking the political mood.

But if you think candidates hand-picked by a 79yo, 5+ term mayor, who’s been *the* political establishment in Madison for 50+ years are “INDEPENDENT, NON-MACHINE” options…

I mean come on

This in particular is fantastic.

Telling a compelling story requires making and naming enemies!

2024 results if Dems talked like this instead of the triangulating, consultant-tested freakspeak

Thank god we have an opposition party ready to channel the energy!

This is the Dem establishment’s problem. They LOVE the rules. Seniority! Wealth! Revolving door!

When they had a choice from 2020-2024 between maintaining the rules or leaving the door open to fascist policies, well…

Re-upping post flight crash.

At the convention hall, one booth is screaming that black people are causing plane crashes.

The other is somberly reading the “hearts go out” statement we’ve all read 100x

Wonder which will draw & stick with more people, @whstancil.bsky.social

This is what happens when you don’t contest the space!

An absolute layup that D silence has allowed to turn into a GOP attack.

There are no points for decorum!

This, unequivocally, ain’t it @govevers.wisconsin.gov

This is an illegal order. Fight it and ignore it, don’t request clarity or a “pause”

I know someone with HIV. This freezes that funding, and he can’t afford meds on his own. This order may kill him.

AND YOU JUST WANT TO PRESS PAUSE ON THAT?!?

Most important chart in US politics.

A supermajority(!) of Americans have been unhappy with the country's direction for ~25 years.

This is not a world where you want to be the status quo party.
