Refugee from the Elno disaster.

I try to reskeet responsibly, not flooding people's feeds. Let me know if it's a problem before unfollowing me.

If people want to understand why American politics went bananas in 2012, the reason is that the moderate black President took a modest but consequential step toward decoupling healthcare from employment and every billionaire immediately poured their entire portfolio into race-hate media

Wow — Senators Van Hollen, Smith, Murphy, Sanders, Warren, Markey, Merkley, Heinrich have created an official internal "Fight Club."

They're challenging Schumer & Gillibrand's leadership, arguing the party is using an old, corporate-friendly playbook insufficient to take on Trump or win elections.

Yeeeeeah Microsoft has been under the impression that they're the only game in town just because corporate inertia favored Office.

But you fucking push somebody and they're going to realize Office-style software is pretty straightforward to make and there are gobs of competitors in that space.
The International Criminal Court is ditching Microsoft Office, saying it’s too dependent on US tech, in favor of Open Desk, a German open source alternative.

The move comes after Microsoft revoked ICC head Karim Khan’s email access when he was sanctioned by the US for the warrant against Netanyahu.

If they win too much, imagine how hard it's going to be to find enough Krystens Sinema and Joes Manchin and parliamentarians to sabotage all the good things they'd totally love to do if they just had the votes.

"Is it smart for the democrats to keep pushing the Epstein issue as we go into the midterms??? Should the party downplay the international child trafficking ring reaching to the top of government? How well is not feeding kids to rich pedos polling in Iowa this week? Can we triangulate this somehow

See, I told you. I TOLD YOU that the freaking filibuster is why the Democrats caved in and gave Republicans everything they wanted!

Democrats sold out the country for an institutional privilege that doesn't even help them.
Heaven forbid the Republicans get rid of the filibuster…

A deal blocking Trump from doing an already illegal thing is not a 'deal' b/c (1) it was already illegal, (2) the admin does not give a shit if you make it double illegal, and (3) the ppl you're making the 'deal' with claim they have no power to force the admin to obey laws to begin with.

Since the Democrats worked extra hard to hide who actually supported this, I think the No Kings/Resistance position should be to primary every Democrat unless they publicly call for Schumer's ouster this week

Either they go into total rebellion mode, which they won't, or the people will

okay, so, with Dems successfully keeping anyone up in 2026 for voting for this turd let's take a look at who's up in 2026 anyway:

1. Cory Booker - apparently involved behind the scenes, constantly looking for bipartisanship. I don't dislike him personally but he doesn't have what we need. Primary.

They caved in March so they could get a better deal now. They’re caving now so they can get a better deal in some indeterminate future. The better deal is always just beyond their reach, but continuing to cave will get them there. And if you don’t agree with that, you don’t understand Politics,

This is part of the tragedy of a surrender now. It invites more pain and suffering by emboldening the regime. Why should they listen to a weak opposition?
Schumer and the Dems are about to teach Trump the lesson that they’ll cave whenever he abuses power to sufficiently hurt people.

For those who don’t know, Lina Khan gave tech bros hell AND her ass to kiss when she was FTC chair. She was busting monopolies left and right. Gave Amazon and Meta the finger too.

This is an EXCELLENT addition to his team.
