A guy with a keyboard, talking about politics and race relations. I was calling myself a liberal back when FOX News tried to make it a slur.

If you're ever questioning just how deeply embedded the racism is in the Republican party, just remember that they chose to smear Obama on his birthday for no reason. The entire party takes pleasure in attacking Black ppl for just existing where they don't think we should exist.

I need a racism-index on these polls that's like the margin of error in most stats...lol I'm not getting my hopes up until someone points me to some evidence that the racism that guided the GOP to majorities across the country is being suppressed in order to put Democrats in charge.

Dems strongly favored to take the House in our new election forecast. Senate just better than a tossup: Iowa: 41% Dem Texas: 48 Alaska: 51 Ohio: 53 Maine: 68 Michigan: 69 North Carolina: 84 Georgia: 94 www.gelliottmorris.com/p/democrats-...

Just gonna point out that there's more stomach and fight in establishment Democrats to hurt PoC as an olive branch to Republicans than there is to stop giving money and weapons to a country spearheading a genocide.

I really wish Leftists would stop talking about abolish the police bc yall are not about that life. You don't have what it takes to live a life where cops are not a phone call away. You want the police as much as right-wingers do.

I love the pivot from Ms Rachel. She went from "I just want the kiddies to be safe!" to "this bitch is getting funded by AIPAC so she can keep funneling war dollars to the MIC that keeps us in a perpetual state of war for the benefit of their shareholders. Also, Stop 👏 Killing 👏 fuckin 👏 KIDS!"

Your votes as politician should factor into your professional ethics review. If you're a doctor who stands by appointing anti-vaxxers to healthcare roles, that should be a factor in stripping you of your licenses. If you're a lawyer who lies in an official capacity, that should get you disbarred.

The real conversation that needs to be had is demanding if these losers will put their pride and hubris aside to put the people who speak for the moment in charge? This is literally what we mean when we say failing upwards. Talk shit about Jaime Harrison all you want, but he didn't fuck up this bad.

Democratic National Committee is horribly struggling. Republican National Committee is sitting on nearly $130 million. While DNC is $2 million in debt. Bad management of DNC but also another sign that the energy in the Dem base is for change--not the establishment. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/26/u...

Lol... Bro is speedrunning directly to "dystopia where humans are herded like cattle for the needs of the elite" "test therapies on the clone" is a fucking wild ass proposition to put out there like that's not literally dehumanizing a living person.

Nothing would be more fitting for Mitch McConnell than Gov Beshear hijacking governing norms to create a situation that deprives McConnell of his usual rights & privilege. After all, that's what McConnell orchestrated against Obama.

Literally the most pathetic display of servitude I've ever seen. Pro athletes show more courage with less responsibility for safeguarding democracy than these pathetic bootlickers. "He put my family at risk" is all the defense you need to not keke it up with orange menace and no one would blame you

Remarkable camera angle of President Trump as he listens to Wall Street Journal reporters receiving an award for their investigation into Trump’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein — which they pursued despite Trump’s threats and lawsuit.

Politics right now is a race to the bottom to see just how much pain the Right can inflict on their base under the guise of sticking it to the Libs before they revolt. I don't think anyone was expecting this clear of a runway tho...

It's wild how we spent decades shaming Black folks for underage pregnancies and out-of-wedlock birthrates only for the current stance of Republicans to flip to "White ppl need to get those numbers up!"

JFC... The Left's compulsive need to fight over who has the best term to describe the situation. If I step over someone that's bleeding in the street, that doesn't make me a better person just bc I wasn't the one who stabbed them. It's irrelevant to debate if the USAID cuts were murder or not.

well it’s not murder unless we get Elon’s comms and see that the neo-Nazi cyber criminals he hired to dismantle USAID did it on purpose. otherwise it’s only one million plus cases of negligent homicide

"why is everything a remake, a sequel, or some other established property*? Where are the original ideas in Hollywood?" But also, "why are they pushing so many stories about non-White ppl that I don't care about?"

With ll the jokes about expired seasoning in cupboards right now, what seasoning gets the biggest upgrade when you replace an expired bottle w/ a fresh bottle. Fresh Old Bays makes you think you were committing a hate crime using that expired shit.

If I was advising Democrats, I would counter the voter ID discussion w/ gun control discussion. There are more kids killed every year by guns than there are cases of voter fraud. Americans are just as "adamant" about gun control legislation as they are about voter ID laws.

Dem establishment: I don't *want* to side with these people who willingly greenlit the murder and disenfranchisement of Black and Brown residents in America, but if the DSA keeps calling the healthcare industry evil, do I really have a choice?
