I want a presidential candidate who promises to construct Union memorials and statues all over the country.

And yeah, North and South. Blanket Virginia with statues of Thomas, who actually chose the right side.

Hell, put one of Sherman in the middle of Peachtree Park.

Dems. Wanna get your polling out of the gutter? Stop talking about redrawing house maps in blue states and do it. Go big. Don't match them seat for seat. Blow them out of the water. Then endorse Mamdani. You're welcome.

Love, Allison

Judith Butler is 100% correct. The word "woke" is pure reactionary bullshit. Its contemporary meaning also distorts history by making it seem as if every positive cultural change of the past 200 years has happened naturally, without agitation by people considered, at the time, dangerously "woke."

Donald Trump has not yet taken office. It is going to get worse, much worse. We need to stand up an opposition not for a month or two but for four years or more. To do that, we cannot allow ourselves or our leaders to be too tired. We must insist they have courage or get out of the way.

“Washington is broken” is such weasel language. It’s not the city itself that’s passively broken, it’s that people get sent here from Pensacola and Knoxville and Texarkana to come actively break it.

I think might be hard for other folks to understand the community-wide trauma Jews are feeling in relation to the Hamas attacks. It’s because the phrase “existential threat” is not a euphemism for us. For us, it means exactly what the words imply.

Home sick today & watching the house garland testimony. The behavior of the GOP members is literally frightening. Like it makes me (a 62 yo high school principal 🤣) feel scared.
