After months of Anti Muslim HATE, the RW HATE machine has zero interest in fact that the hero who disarmed a Bondi Beach shooter & saved lives was Ahmed al Ahmed, a Muslim. When the facts break the RW narrative, they just pretend it didn’t happen. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

Bezos’s paper ran a piece asking why Democrats are “quiet” on Trump’s immigration war while a whole movement is terrorizing people’s families into silence. As a retired cop, I’ve seen this movie: stop asking her why she didn’t scream. Ask who turned the siren off. www.xplisset.com/p/stop-blami...

Trump called Somali immigrants “garbage.”
The coverage wasn’t just different. Itwas three different realities.

I got to know Quinta when we were both working at BuzzFeed and she has always been wonderful, bold and fierce. And kind. She inspired me to think bigger about what I wanted for myself and others. It means so much to her escalate her vision.

Can you imagine Mitch McConnell saying something positive about Joe Biden in 2021?

The reason you can't is because Mitch McConnell was good at his job and Hakeem Jeffries isn't.
Jeffries: "The border is secure. That's a good thing. It happened on his watch. He wants to claim credit for it, of course he'll get credit for that. In terms of making sure that we actually deal with the issues that matter, including on immigration, there's a lot that's left to be desired."

Pinning the blame on Admiral Bradley - when Hegseth gave the order to kill everyone - is a gross abdication of leadership. He's not qualified to serve as Secretary of Defense.

Florida quietly purged 400+ books. Haiti’s TPS just got an expiration date. A consent decree vanished, an EPA rollback reappeared, and a $75M civil-rights “deal” slid in under the radar.

GTFO with this WaPo “digital media army” nonsense. They plaster Dr. Heather Cox Richardson’s face dead center on the artwork… then never mention her name once in the article. You didn’t just miss her, you ERASED her. I broke down the receipts in today’s XVOA post. www.xplisset.com/p/waspost-pu...

Something that must change in Democratic politics is the belief that democracy is “drama.”

Primaries and challenging leadership aren’t “drama,” it’s democracy.

Hesitation to participate in democracy only leads to an erosion of it.

Sometimes the mirror you need is the one your enemies hold up.
