🧵 Let's talk about campaign emails!
Misleading emails like this one from my opponent are exactly what’s wrong with Democratic fundraising. In reality, there’s no May 31 FEC deadline (the next one is June 30) and these fake deadlines are used to create a false sense of urgency.
Why?

![BISS FOR CONGRESS
We set a big fundraising goal for May, and thanks to supporters like you, we're nearly three-quarters of the way there.
[BAR GRAPH WITH 0% to 100%, filled at 73%]
Now we've just got a few days left to close the gap. These early milestones matter -- it determines what kind of campaign we're running and what we can build next as we plan our strategy for the summer and beyond.
We can't fall short now. Can you chip in today before our deadline and help us finish the month strong?](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ats4shmeia7i7ildqm3denmd/bafkreibpb3izc7mgyk5u2kxrvvmal4uvv75pfjjlokeoxueiubudwnbpmy@jpeg)

there was a brief period of time where i thought jordan peterson would be a big threat to the left but i now view him as a harmless jester that dances for our amusement
This is genuinely so bad, he can’t even answer basic questions from budding teen atheists lmfao. It’s like that scene in game of thrones when all the children ganged up and stabbed grand maester pycelle to death

whining out loud during a televised interview that the reporter should let you lie bc they owe you for the interview is pretty wild
This exchange is so very telling.
Trump repeatedly claims the photoshopped MS-13 on Kilmar Abrego Garcia's knuckles is real, Terry Moran keeps telling him it isn't, prompting Trump to say this:
"I never heard of you. I picked you. You’re not being very nice. He had MS-13 tattooed... Just say yes!"

Q: "How do you respond to Governor Newsom?"
Sen. Van Hollen: "I think Americans are tired of elected officials or politicians who are all finger to the wind...Anybody who can't stand up for the Constitution and the right of due process doesn't deserve to lead."

the addition of the pride flag at the end is such the perfect representation of why we critique rainbow capitalism. he doesn’t give a shit about queer people but only when he has to pivot to try to turn a profit. otherwise he has no problem throwing queer folks under the bus

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.
Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow
As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

I really do love that Penn Jilette was a lifelong libertarian anarcho-capitalist who was just like "whoops! Yeah, sorry, completely wrong on that one. Bullshit ideology for losers" in 2020. I really do! An inspiring lack of ego on him

Really enjoying the stories about congressmen getting yelled at about DOGE shit in their town halls. Not because I feel like it's necessarily going to move things in the right direction in the next election cycle or two, really. I just like stories about congressmen getting yelled at I think.

I feel like Catch 22 is one of the most obviously leftist books just bc the protagonist is a smart guy who understands the insanity around him in perfect clarity, but nobody takes him seriously because it's also turned him into a miserable, high-strung neurotic

Pretty telling that the comparison here is “someone scolding you via a video you saw on Facebook that you found annoying” and “complete disregard for legal protections and long standing peaceful cooperation between nations”. It’s actually pretty accurate to how conservatives view the world
"...if American democracy can survive 10 years of Greta Thunberg scolding you guys can survive a few months of Elon Musk," VP Vance tells the Munich Security Group.

If we draw & quartered elon, we could give every American $1100
Elon Musk is calling for the CFPB's remaining account balance of $711,586,678 to be returned to the American taxpayers.
That you give everyone $2-$3.
But returning Elon Musk’s money to taxpayers would give everyone about $1,300 each.

This is not just a musing from a dude with some various ideas. The next step is to hollow out the judiciary and also not follow their rulings, which have been against Musk’s efforts. This is a very obvious coup, for those not paying attention.
