I am strongly supporting @ronpdavis.bsky.social for the 46th District House seat against Gerry Pollet. He’s the true progressive in the race. Accept no substitutes. Especially one who clerked for Kavanaugh

I figured living next to an ai data center would be harmful, but I didn’t expect it to be a literal Analog Horror Noise Generator
this is why there’s been mass revolt and opposition to data centers being built in communities. it is genuinely a health hazard to live this close to something emitting this much sound. these need to stop being built
The Secretary of State attending a UFC fight while wartime diplomatic negotiations fail would generate an explosive, front-page, above-the-fold headline for any previous administration

You know what would be amazing, if Vance can negotiate an agreement where Iran doesn't enrich above 3.67% (far below weapons grade); gets rid of 98% of its stockpile of uranium; has weekly inspections by the IAEA; and commits to all of this for at 10 years. Oh, yeah, that was the Obama Iran deal.
The Dream Team failed. Total shock. We sent two of our most mediocre real estate developers and a fraud. Who could’ve guessed this outcome?
Don’t. Print. Lies. In. The. Newspapers. What are we doing here? It’s not journalism, whatever it is.
Marathon talks? Compared to what? It took years for Obama to deliver a detailed Iran deal. The Trump admin are packing it in after 20 hours. (H/T @bgrueskin.bsky.social)
Again there's simply no comparison between the scope, scale, & tone of the JOE BIDEN EPICALLY AND INCOMPETENTLY FAILED IN AFGHANISTAN coverage of August/September 2021 & the "just the facts, very measured" reporting of what's going on with Iran & Trump now.

I have a bipartisan bill to ban Members of Congress from stock trading — with colleagues on both sides of the aisle. It is so important that we find these openings for bipartisan collaboration, even as we hold Republicans accountable for their refusal to protect our checks and balances.

And to be clear, everyone was very aware that this was illegal, but Trump officials and DOGE didi it anyway. Multiple IRS acting commissioners were removed when they raised concerns. Pretty much the entire C-suite resigned. From last year: donmoynihan.substack.com/p/this-tax-d...
Breaking news: A federal judge found that the IRS violated federal law “approximately 42,695 times” when it shared confidential taxpayer addresses with immigration enforcement officials last summer.
Today in “neither our media nor our political system is designed to deal with a far right authoritarian party.”
the fact the president of the united states is even thinking about asserting emergency powers to disrupt an election - just a few years after he incited an armed coup attempt - should be the top issue. but the media mostly shrugs and the opposition doesnt focus on it.
Hey Washington state! Yes, it's me. That annoying guy who keeps telling you to email your legislators AGAIN about the data center regulation bill. Guess what you need to do now? That's right, send another email! Before Tuesday at 130 🙏 @troublemakers.bsky.social actionnetwork.org/letters/wash...

It’s not “deeply concerning.” It’s not just ICE agents. It’s not <like> authoritarianism; it <is> authoritarianism. It requires immediate impeachment & removal, & I wish Obama, along with Clinton, GWB, & yes even Mitt Romney, had the courage to get in front mics every day & call for that explicitly.
Obama: "The rogue behavior of agents of the federal government is deeply concerning and dangerous ... the sort of behavior that we've seen in authoritarian countries and we've seen in dictatorships, but we have not seen in America."
