i am, i think, generally a pretty congenial center-left voter. i’m not a radical. i’m not a reactionary. but i have spent the last ten years watching the fed government be taken over by right wing reactionaries and i am increasingly convinced we should use the tools they are building against them
if republicans and a handful of democrats in congress are willing to authorize a full blown paramilitary guard, and we do nothing to stop them well, i want control of that guard. drag the heritage foundation board into guantanamo. deport jesse watters to CECOT if laws don’t matter, they don’t matter

it is -10 here today. I was supposed to go do a volunteer shift standing outside loading groceries into people’s cars to deliver to families stuck at home. just got a call not to come in because they have too many volunteers already. if you were wondering if the cold would stop us.

You can smell the air change on 94 as you get a little bit south of 24th. Im a car with the windows rolled up on a very cold day. The gassing is that bad.

Members of congress cannot even stand up against military action against a city in their own country.
Members of Congress should be openly stating right now that military action against Greenland will result in impeachment and removal of the President and the Vice President.

It's worth reminding each other every couple days that every delay you create, every horrible opportunity you deter means someone gets home to their family, might even mean someones actual life is saved. All of it is worth it.

a lot of people are being radicalized by ICE this week so please remember that the most important thing when someone comes to any kind of radical politics is to immediately scold them for doing activism wrong as someone who has been doing it much longer

They hate Minnesota because we are a people who believe that "we all do better when we all do better."

Minnesota is one of the wealthiest, safest, and cleanest states in the country *because* of our openness and generosity.

Our quality of life is a direct challenge to their zero-sum worldview.

ICE killed a woman in our City today. We need everyone to stay safe, stay vigilant, and to look out for your immigrant neighbors. Help your immigrant neighbors buy groceries, shovel their sidewalks, and look out for them in this moment. Get involved in your community at defend612.com

I heard there was a Cohen song,

And all the Christians got it wrong,

But you don’t really get the meaning do ya?

‘Cause you see its about getting laid,

It’s sex, and love, and Jewish faith,

But all the gentiles heard was “hallelujah!”

Indeed workers are voting this afternoon to authorize a strike next week. Follow the link to email the boss that if they go on strike you will respect the strike line at the taproom & will boycott the products at the stores. Pass this to anyone you can think of who supports workers.

I’ll keep pushing this line of analysis because I’m increasingly convinced the clearest path out of this mess is for Dems to adopt a relentless anti-corruption, anti-inequality, anti-oligarchy, pro-democracy platform. The Dem leadership hasn’t realized it yet, but they’re now a reform party.

Time to repeal Virginia's right to work law. Should be the first bill.
Looks like the Dems will pick up 12 seats in the VA House of Delegates, which will go from 51-49 to 63-37 D-R. That's an honestly shocking result.

yes I am a Spanberger-Mamdani democrat and we are the future
the future of the democratic party is a coalition of the wokest people on tumblr and absolutely dead-eyed pursuers of the national interest and the maximization of GDP
funny that the two groups in the political class who have been the least enthusiastic about trump term 2 are like neocon blob guys and economists

I’m ecstatic Mamdani won. I’m also loving the fact that Spanberger and Sherrill destroyed their Republican opponents

Democrats won big all across the country and THAT is incredibly important to me
