Husband/girl dad with faith that democracy is the way to go; still idealistic enough to believe it's achievable. The only thing I'm selling is democracy. Banned (3x!) by the fowl site for calling out GOP lies.

Russian propagandists have a convenient habit of showing the devastation caused by Russia while omitting the inconvenient fact that Russia is the one launching the drones and missiles striking Ukrainian civilians.
We don’t need the White House to swear in the new president We don’t need the White House to govern We don’t need the White House at all Let him go in his bunker, seal it from the outside and move on with our lives

SCHIFF: You told my staff you stood by your article in white nationalist website VDARE where you wrote, 'Muslim immigrants & their kids seem prone to terrorism' C: I wrote that article in support of Trump's travel ban S: Do you stand by it? C: I stand by that article S: That's all I need to know
Jenifer Lewis said it best: 35.9 million people sat out 2024, and we don’t let that shit happen again. Not this time. Not with 90 days on the clock and everything on the line. Speak out, knock louder, make it impossible to ignore. It’s on all of us to flip it all blue. #BlueWaveIn90Days
Dying at the right-wing activists that (1) held a call with Todd Blanche in which Blanche made a lot of anti-abortion promises, (2) said "uh this is off the record" like doing so would magically ward off journalists, and then (3) UPLOADED IT TO THEIR YOUTUBE CHANNEL www.politico.com/news/2026/08...

Donald Trump wants to spend your taxpayer dollars separating families and building new ICE prisons. In 2016, I voted against reopening this prison in Appleton. In the Senate, I'm not going to send one more penny to this lawless, out-of-control agency. Let's rip ICE apart.
What a pathetic failure of federal government.

Notice DOJ doesn't talk about its efforts to obtain state voter files anymore. They are 0-20 in those cases and today is the beginning of the quiet period -- states can no longer do systematic removals of names from the voter rolls. TLDR: We won!🥳
In the 1950s we had 700 different chemicals in our food Today we have over 10,000 in our food In Europe, they only have 700 still today. Kelloggs makes the safer Canadian version and the American version. Two different options, same manufacturer. Americans have been sold out sadly.
ECU President @tiffanymuller.bsky.social was on The Campaign Workshop's podcast, How to Win a Campaign, to talk about all things corruption and ways to root it out. Here's a snippet:
President Trump lashed out at ExxonMobil and Chevron for “making too much money" amid record profits. But these companies can thank Trump for the windfall, from his war in Iran to the enormous corporate tax cuts from his tax laws. itep.org/trump-exxon-...

Another GOP incumbent not seeking re-election. They’re all panicking about the midterms.
We're organizing to get money out of politics — and we are WINNING.
Don’t be fooled by the weasel-worded statements that Acting AG Todd Blanche posted on the DOJ website and tweeted out late Sunday night. They are clearly intended to give a false impression that a stake has finally been driven into the fund’s heart. It hasn’t. www.thebulwark.com/p/dont-belie...
Don’t Believe Todd Blanche About Trump’s Slush Fund From Hell
The attorney general nominee did not kill off Trump’s egregiously corrupt fund, even if he duped Sens. Cornyn and Tillis into thinking he had.

During his four-month medical absence from Congress this spring, Rep. Tom Kean Jr. gave few indications of where he was or what he was doing, but there was one action he was still regularly taking: signing off on his stock transaction reports. www.politico.com/news/2026/08...
Back in action, Tom Kean Jr. faces a new source of scrutiny: His stocks
The New Jersey Republican says he has no personal involvement in any stock transactions, but that hasn’t muted Democratic criticism.
