Hey @elizabeth-warren.bsky.social what’s going on here? Not what I would’ve expected. Can’t believe this needs to be said but could you please stop kowtowing to the Republican agenda?
Just heard disappointing news that @warren.senate.gov will co-sponsor the Kids Online Safety Act again despite overwhelming opposition from LGBTQ, human rights, abortion rights, and racial justice groups.

This is a horrific betrayal of her constituents, particularly trans youth and their families.
Why Are Some Democrats Backing MAGA's Anti-LGBTQ+ Censorship?
From late-night host cancellations to removing LGBTQ+ history from government sites, politicians in both parties are contributing to the overwriting of the internet — a place where lots of queer and t...

Donald Trump’s approval rating has tanked and Republican suffered heavy losses in last week’s elections. There’s never been a better time for Senate Democrats to cave on the ACA extension.

I cannot believe the senate democrats are going to cave. The level of cowardice is off the charts. I just want democrats who actually believe in trying to better the world and holding the line against legitimate evil apparently is a bridge too far for some of these schmucks.

Omg. Ok folks. You need to do this—big feeds, please amplify ( @kevinmkruse.bsky.social maybe you can too)
Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

Pissed at Voya Financial — after making me wait through the dumbest AI phone tree of all time, I finally get through to a human. Human gets me the document I need to do a rollover — which is fax or snail mail only.

If I have to talk to your AI, I ought to be able to do an online rollover.

Nothing says “Democratic Leader” quite like “I will not tell you who I voted for in a general election.”
Q: It's election day in NYC. Did you vote for Mamdani or Cuomo?

Schumer: "Look, I voted, and I look forward to working with the next mayor to help NYC."

i hope to see enterprising democrats announce their intent to retire schumer and gillibrand over the next two years.

Not that I thought a lot of the @washingtonpost.com prior to this but holy fuck, the barbarity is insane, have you people no shame? Maybe we ought to feed our children with all of the excess we have. Maybe we ought to have a minimum standard of living in this country.

What's up with Justice Jackson? She started making her mark and speaking out early, and some of her dissents are so pointed Kagan and Sotomayor don’t even join them. The far right is out for her, and even Republican justices are getting snarky.

So what's up? Here’s my take 🧵

Less than a year ago @nytimes.com was sent hacked data about Trump's vetting of JD Vance, which they refused to publish.

But Mamdami's hacked college application gets an exception because of interest from random online Nazis and Chris Rufo, the NYTimes' de facto executive editor.
Arguably if NYT wanted to get ahead they could have written that story, about Nazis trying to start a race controversy with hacked data. But as it turns out, they wanted to be the Nazis.

Perhaps the elder millennials amongst us might recall in 2007 when John McCain quoted that old Beach Boys tune “Barbara Ann” by saying “Bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran” — he was an asshole then and Donald Trump is one now, 18 years later.

In April, President Trump and Salvadoran President Bukele shook hands in the Oval Office to celebrate a deal to ship gang members to the notorious CECOT prison.

But a new ProPublica investigation found there’s more to the story. 🧵👇
