I can’t get over Trump, a born-with-a-golden-spoon, notoriously contractor-stiffing, adjudicated sexual abuser and grifter who never shuts up about how unfairly he’s treated … criticizing hard working, came-from-nothing immigrants for “complaining” and “contributing nothing” to the U.S.!!

"Literally no one thinks prayer is a substitute for action."

Then why is prayer, literally, *always* the substitute for action, you willfully obtuse asshole?

Someone should tell Trump that arresting Putin in Alaska and delivering him in shackles to The Hague would be the quickest way to end the war in Ukraine and win a Nobel Peace Prize.

Trump is afraid of a House Democratic majority, so he's asked Texas Republicans to redraw the maps nearly a year out from the election.

This is just a corrupt & brazen power grab.

If this is how Republicans want to do things, Democratic states should absolutely respond in kind.
Trump on Texas redistricting: ‘We are entitled to 5 more seats’
Democrats are trying to block the redraw in the state by denying the state legislature a quorum.

if I were to run on the Democratic ticket, my main point would be:
1. every person in the United States is entitled to to basic health care, free of charge.
why do Democratic candidates who make this pledge not win elections?

When a network lays off one of America’s greatest satirists, it’s not because he failed. It’s because he succeeded too loudly.

If Bill Clinton was a member of Jeffrey Epstein’s child sex trafficking ring, he should rot in prison forever.

If Donald Trump was a member of Jeffrey Epstein’s child sex trafficking ring, he should rot in prison forever.

That wasn’t so difficult, was it?

What's up with Justice Jackson? She started making her mark and speaking out early, and some of her dissents are so pointed Kagan and Sotomayor don’t even join them. The far right is out for her, and even Republican justices are getting snarky.

So what's up? Here’s my take 🧵

Can you hit repost? Marjorie Taylor Greene doesn't want you to know the name of her opponent but will try every desperate attempt to save her seat.

My name is Shawn Harris. I am a Democrat, husband, father, Retired Brigadier General, farmer, and I'm running against MTG. Can you share and follow me?

STEP ONE: Reform the Democratic party with new leadership and make way for a new generation of leaders free from billionaire control.

STEP TWO: Take America back from the fascists.

Well-meaning folks on Bluesky who dismiss sportsball as some kind of distraction to What Matters Now are missing a key point in creating an alternative to X: Sports for better or worse dominates American culture. You ignore enormous swaths of potential allies when you dismiss sports.
Since the NBA season ended last night, here's my self indulgent take on where Sports Bluesky is atm. The TLDR is that crappy Resistance accounts are working like antibodies to flush casual sports ppl off this platform and the devs should address this if they actually want sports to take off here.

"If the Republic fails it won’t be primarily because Republican elites were craven, or because elected Democrats didn’t play perfect baseball. It will be because Real Americans were manifestly unworthy of their country."
We're starting to see more press stories of the formula "Trump voters who think he's doing great except for this one thing that affects them personally." This, by @jvl.bsky.social, angrily and correctly points out the sorts of questions that the press should be asking these people.
Meet the Worst People in America
They voted for Trump and now they are very upset that Trump is destroying one of their friends’ lives.

The US makes its military equipment in the US.

ANY journalist in US who is focusing on Biden's cognitive issues (when he never made factually-moronic statements like this), and not Trump's ....
Trump: "We're not looking to make sneakers and t-shirts. We want to make military equipment, we want to make big things. We want to do the AI things with the computers. But the textile -- you know, I'm not looking to make t-shirts, to be honest. I'm not looking to make socks."

We will not win the battle for democracy if those in the pro-democracy movement prize caution over taking risks. We cannot permit ourselves to be deterred by the defeats and public criticism that are inevitable along the long path of restoring democracy. Now is the time for fearless leadership.
The Survival of Democracy Depends on Our Willingness to Fight
Justice Riggs is right. We should not have to fight for democracy. But the reality is that we must.
