The open racism that is now espoused or endorsed by every single Republican is simply beyond my ability to comprehend. There is simply no common ground to be found with such people.
“THAT’S THE BEST YOU GOT?” Dr. @abdulelsayed.bsky.social reacts to Republicans using his full name in a clearly bigoted effort to gin up racist, Islamophobic fear around his candidacy.
SHOUT OUT to Mike Luckovich: one of the all-time great political cartoonists. 🏆 With corporate media doing such a poor job in these most perilous of times, his work is more vital than ever! THANK YOU @mluckovich.bsky.social!!! 🙏
🥴 I’m starting to think he’s not just thoroughly corrupt — I think he’s also really quite dumb

She's been working so hard for her first week with us to get healthy. And the first weigh in went super well. 7 lbs down and she is starting to feel herself again! A long way to go but she is off and running

I told you we[s]t Ireland people we should hold the rain hostage until the UK paid a ransom. Now they're getting it For Free!

Tillis: "Everybody has this view that they are as pure as the driven snow and it's the other side that has a problem. I think we both have a problem, folks. If you want to talk about weaponization, take a look at Biden, take a look at Obama, take a look at Crossfire Hurricane ... "

Strange that there is never this amount of hand-wringing when working people are forced to subsidize tax write-offs for billionaire mega-yachts they will never use.
