You know what's discriminatory? The fact that if a woman or person of color were on that Signal chat, they would've been fired immediately (but these yahoos get to stay in their roles). #signalgate #dei #notjustaglitch

The FCC is investigating Disney for checks notes…

DEI programs.

The same people screaming about “big government overreach” are now using the government to punish companies for hiring diverse talent.

Totally normal

not hypocritical at all.

In 2020, Gavin Newsom dedicated the entirety of his State of the State speech to homelessness, which was to be THE priority for his administration. Five years later, to everyone’s relief, there is so little homelessness in California that the governor can devote all his attention to podcasting.

Nothing like having your reality tv president do a Tesla infomercial on the White House lawn. So cringe. #trump #elon #corruption

Moments like this should be shared as widely as the terrifying shit.

Not because they’re proof we have nothing to worry about. Because they indicate that he cannot in fact do whatever he wants, whenever he wants to. Recognize people who are doing their jobs rather than following his whims.

So...I'm thinking a general TSA strike would do more to ground airplanes even than a lack of air traffic controllers.

Love him or hate him, Trump has mastered the art of grabbing people's attention. What can the Dems do differently to pique people's curiosity and get out their message (preferably without the lies and circus-level drama that have become so central to the MAGA movement)?

SOTU reminded me why the Romans organized gladiator fights in the Colosseum.

Distract the plebs. Give them some entertainment and they'll complain less about their living conditions.

It still works to this day.

Just popped into the #SOTU for a hot second.

It was dumber and meaner than I thought it would be.

We are being governed by the kids who were bullies because they couldn't make the sports teams or get the academic scholarships.

They are neither smart nor team players.

We. Are. Fucked.

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why.

What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?
