I really can't emphasize enough that if you care about local politics, all you gotta do is show up. Just a regular schmegular person showing up. Literally just show up consistently in person and within a remarkably short amount of time, you will have a shocking amount of influence.

The General Assembly is busy debating congressional maps and playing political games. Meanwhile, 52 miles of pipeline are about to cut straight thru Marion, Hendricks, Boone, and Hamilton counties.

Trees gone. Yards dug up. Eminent domain on the table. And almost nobody is talking about it.

I am.

The fascist right doesn’t believe that American Jews belong in America. They want us to live in our own ethno-state—not here.

People like Zohran believe America is a multiracial democracy in which everyone should belong.

It’s insane the latter is treated as antisemitism.

What else could possibly be in the #Epstein files that would change anything? What are we waiting for? Who would do anything differently? Republicans are clearly just fine with having a child abuser as their leader.

I’ve had an induction stove for about six months now and I’m still discovering pleasant surprises. I can pick up a pot of boiling pasta water to drain it without hot pads! The handles are not blazing hot from the gas burner. #electrify

Join your county Democratic Party! There are shockingly few people willing to show up and those are the people who get to make decisions

No ballroom.
No bailout.
No taxation without representation.

I just donated because the Democratic Party needs new energy and no one over 70 should be running for a six year term! www.grahamforsenate.com

It’s been a while since I worked in the field, but I’m pretty sure Republicans get infectious diseases also? Save the #CDC

There can’t be any gun restrictions because we have to protect against federal government tyranny, and if kids get shot we just have to live with it. Also the President can send troops to cities because the federal government can do whatever it wants. These two ideas are consistent and reasonable.

you can't say (correctly) "Vote Blue no matter who" and then desert the idea when a left-winger wins, and party leaders even encouraging or winking at opposition to Mamdani at this point are fools
the left very clearly views support for mamdani as a litmus test - does party loyalty run both ways?

Washington DC has 702,000 people, is 45% Black and has 0 senators

Wyoming has 590,000 people, is 86% white and has 2 senators

DC needs a state with proper representation, not a military takeover

DC should be a state.

I almost can't believe that Elon Musk's AI called for the extermination of the Jewish people yesterday, and today not a single Congressional Democrat announced they were leaving his media network.

A party that often claims to act against antisemitism didn't do jack shit about straight up Nazism.

The Texas floods are to #climatechange what Newtown was to #guncontrol. We did not meet that moment and we will miss this opportunity also. We are failing our children.

"The legacies of radical thought are not yours to cosplay.

We’ve buried mentors and friends who gave everything to this work. They held coalitions together across race, religion, class, and creed... They did not sacrifice so you could embrace nihilism."

Incredible, by @bulldogshadow.bsky.social.

It’s almost like shutting down protests, ending funding for scientific research, and blackmailing institutions has done nothing to solve antisemitism in America. Weird.
