Newsom is a bad person and I’ll leave that bubble empty before I vote for him, but if he spends all day on tv tomorrow calling Schumer a coward and it normalizes the call to primary him among lowish information democrats, godspeed.

The senate need to be abolished. Not only is it wildly undemocratic, but look at this fuckin BULLSHITcoordinated perfectly to avoid repercussions for selling us out. 6 years is way too fucking long. I have to look at @schumer.senate.gov and @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social and FUCK them.

I think the left should have a big tent policy because everyone who didn’t vote for Mamdani is WAY more confident that he’s going to pull off everything he says than anyone I know who did and we need that kind of positivity and optimism on the left frankly

I’ve seen just one counter-protester at No Kings San Diego. He’s got a Trump 2024 flag and this guy has been following him around for probably an hour playing Benny Hill and circus music.

This is the nugget. There’s no ‘casual’ nazism. It’s not something you flirt with, or just hang out with someone who is.
In a world of nuance, it’s a binary.

There's the academic terms, and they matter, absolutely, and then there's the public discourse, where if you have twelve people drinking and laughing with the unrepentant Nazi you have thirteen Nazis.

Dunno man, seems a little misleading to write an article about Trump describing activity in Portland and Chicago as “insurrection” with a 33 year old photo of a burning donut shop taken in the 1992 LA Riots (sans caption explaining that) as the header on all your posts about it.

Visiting friends in Wisconsin was eye-opening. I was completely thrown off by many people just having no idea of what is happening. No idea about the kidnappings- nothing.

Just thinking today of all the colleagues who called us alarmists and cranks when we pointed out that Trump was talking and acting like a fascist in 2016
