its very telling that the mainstream media narrative is that dsa has wacky and unreasonable positions when the republican party position is that abortion should be banned, latino families should be put in concentration camps, black people should be shot by cops and transgender people shouldnt exist
I have, with my own eyes, watched my tax dollars in the form of missiles as they hit buildings inhabited by civilians. I'd much prefer subsidizing a grocery story I don't use.

The “Sold Out” crowd in Greenfield, Indiana turned out to number in the dozens. Meanwhile, the counter-protesters marching nearby numbered in the hundreds. Even in Red State Indiana, MAGA’s influence is shrinking by the day.

Sen. Bernie Moreno Doesn't 'Know' if Embattled Rep. Max Miller Should Stay on Ballot
The senator’s daughter accused Miller of domestic violence. Miller denies the allegations, but they’re making his reelection race tighter.

Hurling F-bombs at an 85-year-old scientist who won’t fight back doesn’t make you tough. Staying silent after your own daughter accused Rep. Max Miller of holding a gun to her head, pushing her against a wall, and fracturing your granddaughter’s collarbone makes you a coward.

Musk’s assertion that Economist Editor Zanny Beddoes is a “traitor to the West” was in reply to another former South African who fled the country as Apartheid was falling. Officially racist SA is their paradise lost. Now they are trying to recreate that land in the U.S. and UK. …

BREAKING: SAG-AFTRA, the actors union comes out in opposition to the Paramount-Warners merger. Plenty of actors & SAG members have been a part of our #BlockTheMerger coalition from day 1 but still, this is big. My hometown of Hollywood does not want this misbegotten mashup & neither does democracy

WHOA!! Rep. Zach Nunn (R-IA) just STRUCK a person asking him a simple question about rural hospital closures. Reporter: Do you still think rural hospital closures are a myth? Nunn: I said I'm with a constituent. You should protect their privacy! *SMACK*
So nobody has the authority to go to the fuckin hospital and see if Mitch McConnell is dead or alive? This is some bullshit man.
Folks complaining the actors in The Odyssey don't look Ancient Greek are oddly nostalgic for the era when John Wayne was apparently the most qualified Mongolian on Earth.
Sending ICE Agents to intimidate voters at polling places, declaring martial law to try to delay or cancel the election, seizing ballots-As he gets more desperate, there's nothing he won't do to try to save his pathetic orange ass. ALL states should preemptively prepare to defend Democracy! 🇺🇸 ✊
“Donald Trump and Republican legislators have threatened Canada over fires affecting air quality across a wide area of the United States. Because—and this is a great surprise to Republicans who have long argued to the contrary—there's only one atmosphere, and we all have to share it.” …
Where there's smoke, there's flaming Republican stupidity
Massive summer wildfires are the 'new normal,' but of course conservatives think it's a Canadian plot against them.

Unearthed records just revealed that Ken Paxton owns 15 homes on a government salary. This includes luxury real estate in Hawaii, Utah, and Florida.
Tonight's Presidential address is so D.O.A. its sister's being named to the Senate.
@ejeancarroll.bsky.social: "I don't understand how people can be afraid of a fat elderly man who wears apricot makeup, his hair done up like Tippi Hedren in The Birds and sits in a court room and moans and groans and complains”
“If we acknowledge that Trump is trying to destroy democracy it could discourage midterm voters,” is a seriously stupid argument. Ignoring the threat won’t make it go away.
Trump seriously seems to think that saying Lindsey Graham wanted to pass the SAVE America Act will get Senators to vote for it. No.
