Always question authority. Iowa blue dot. Taking no shit or prisoners. Ex social science data wonk and community organizer. Historically this began as an Against Chuck Grassley account. It still is. No, YOU calm down. #UnboughtUnbossedUnafraid
all that "abundance" nonsense spewed by the likes of Ezra Klein? It's laundered fossil fuel propaganda courtesy of the Kochs: consumerwatchdog.org/front-group/...
The Breakthrough Institute: Who Funds It
An “environmental” institute that accepts the science — then argues Big Oil shouldn’t pay for it. Its fossil fuel funding, record and Supreme Court arguments.

Maybe John Eastman or Rudy could help. Wait they were disbarred. Maybe Jim Jordan can help...wait he didn't pass the barr. Maybe that cracky crack kraken lawyer can help. Oh wait her plea deal might be a problem.
Just look what Stacey Abrams did in Georgia. She is the obvious choice for DNC. She knows how to organize!
"We're Democrats. We don't abandon minorities." That's it. You don't even have to know how you'll respond to any given minority's specific issues to be able to say it. "I don't understand trans issues, but I don't have to. They're people, they're Americans, and I've been elected to rep them, too."
My working title for this was 'Green Economic Populism: The Road to Victory'. We've still got a ways to go before we get to the end of that road, but it is clear that more and more electeds get it: the cost of living and climate crises are linked, and taking action on both is imperative
Climate and Community Institute@cplusc.bsky.social · 5d agoBREAKING: The 2026 midterms exposed an emerging pathway for a new type of climate politics. We scored every candidate for House, Senate, and gubernatorial races. Those who tied climate to cost of living did well up and down the ballot.

This diabolical white supremacist dickhead is behind ICE’s racist fueled human rights violations. He must be investigated, prosecuted and IMPRISONED. Then, perhaps, this nation can begin the healing process.
Marco Rubio oversaw the “deals” and payoffs and pressure to get tens of thousands of people expelled to countries they’ve never been to, including thousands of Cubans living in Miami. He is at least as responsible as Stephen Miller — maybe moreso — for the ongoing third-country removal disaster.
Lauren Ashley Davis@laurenmeidasa.bsky.social · 4d agoUS Secretary of State Marco Rubio is reportedly preparing to resign from Donald Trump’s cabinet to launch a bid for the 2028 Republican presidential nomination. www.independent.co.uk/bulletin/new...
Sorry but Jeffries and Schumer are not the people to lead! Jeffries reminds me of Fetterman & Schumer is too old and they were both paid off! If you can’t vote for Medicare for all and disbanding ICE, why are you here?
They could also join the ICC And start signing extradition agreements
It seems Donald Trump was right, the Iran war did achieve regime change. Emilio Bedin, Narre Warren @theageaustralia.bsky.social letters
Abolishing ICE is the floor, the bare fucking minimum. If Jeffries and other "centrist" Dems can't meet this moment, they need to be gone. ICE is a syndicate for institutional hate crimes, and everyone involved must face a punishment so severe that future Nazis won't dare try this shit again.
This is important. Chuck Schumer cannot be the leader of the Senate.  All of the hard work people standing in line cannot be disregarded and sabotage he knows he his ass that’s why he’s been laying low, but he wants to work with Trump  
Defense contractor PACs also backed Jeffries: -Lockheed Martin: $10,000 -Northrop Grumman: $10,000 -Raytheon: $10,000 -Boeing: $10,000 -General Dynamics: $10,000 -L3Harris: $10,000 -BAE Systems: $7,500 -Huntington Ingalls: $6,000 -Leidos and Textron: $5,000 each

Newsweek: Cleveland Grover Meredith Jr., a man pardoned by Trump after being charged following the J6 Capitol insurrection has now been charged with making threats to execute federal judges. This comes as a surprise to no one. #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed

This makes me smile, thinking about white supremacist Elon Musk making a big stink about moving to Texas because California is “too blue.”
Phil Lewis@phillewis.bsky.social · 5d agoWASHINGTON (AP) — Democrats take control of Texas state House after historic wins for governor, U.S. Senate.
To be very clear: NONE of this means we’ve “saved democracy”. It means we have a chance to begin repairing an enormous amount of harm that didn’t begin and will not end with Trump.
"They have gotten me wrong for 12 years, but I don’t care. It doesn’t matter.” It kinda seems like it DOES

Ellison: "Trump demanded we turn on our Somali neighbors, and we said 'no way, never!' He demanded that we turn on our immigrant & refugee neighbors, and we said, 'never!' He demanded that we turn on our trans neighbors, and we said 'absolutely not' ... tonight, we showed up for each other again."
We went from one Black governor to FIVE overnight.

BREAKING: Mexico closes its border to massive caravans of MAGA Texans demanding asylum.
Now the media is trying to tie tomorrow's stock prices off Dems winning and, presumably, being bad for AI... as if AI's own financial numbers aren't the reason to run away from AI stocks.
