This is a very good thread. I don’t know if I agree with every single particular, but the one piece I want to drill down on is this: if you say policy is the only thing, you are quite often saying “here is a list of words that, if you say them, I’m ride and die for you.”
Vibecession Forever@ghazelleberner.bsky.social · last mo.So there’s a famously pugilistic poster on here (who has me blocked) who said, essentially, that character doesn’t matter when choosing to vote. Only policy. And I think that is just fundamentally backwards and, ultimately, the reason why the online left keeps falling for lying grifters. (Thread)

Since this still pops up: After 14 years of litigation a judge has ruled last month that the recording violated both state and federal law and nobody is allowed to listen to or use the tapes. Buttigieg's decision has been proven correct after all. youtu.be/St_w8Jv37p8

Jonathan W. Gray@elmcitytree.blacksky.app · last mo.The reason there’s no controversy section is that white people don’t count cowardly appeasing racists in your community as a scandal.
Pete sent out a really nice email to supporters this evening -- no fundraising talk or donation links, just some heartfelt words of appreciation & hope for the future 🌊🌈 #TeamPete
I truly hope they are able to trace this back to whoever did it and charge them. I get so angry every time I think about this. The trauma will stay long after people who thought this was funny have had their laughs. abcnews.com/GMA/News/pet...
'We just can't go on like this': Pete Buttigieg speaks out after child services swatting incident
Buttigieg spoke in a new interview with "Good Morning America" co-anchor George Stephanopoulos.

Yeah, I'm sure the reason why all those people in the audience touched their faces or were visibly crying when he talked about it the frist time on stage was becasue it was "consultant speech scripted by donors".
@jedr.blacksky.app · last mo.it was consultant speak, scripted by conservative, corp. donors. THAT is what makes it so galling. Plus, has Buttigieg has EVER been a part of a grassroots community of ANY kind, L, G, B, T, Q, I, A, + - EVER? Dude grew a beard to look masc, FFS. He's a cardboard mockup taped over a MIC heart.
Pete Buttigieg has been out front on structural democratic reform for a long time. 👇 Pete in July 2019: "You're telling me we can't reform our democracy in our time? We have to. Or we'll be having the same argument 20 years from now."
Great visit to Western North Carolina this week - from learning about Jamie Ager's small business while visiting his farm, to making the case for the campaign underway.
Buttigieg in Toronto today: "If I were to sit here and say the US political system is broken, it would be the least memorable thing I’ve said all day. It’s said so often that it’s a cliché. The question is if everybody agrees the system is broken, how much longer can we go on acting like it’s not?"
What REALLY Happened with the Keegan-Michael Key Pete Buttigieg Endorsement I probably shouldn’t be saying this… but it’s been long enough. This is the inside story of a Keegan-Michael Key Pete Buttigieg moment that almost turned into something much bigger, and then didn’t.
Lovely introduction of @petebuttigieg.bsky.social by @warnock.senate.gov at the 140th Anniversary Worship Service at Ebenezer Baptist Church this morning. It was a wonderful service —> www.youtube.com/live/Ruyzl6e...
Buttigieg: “JD Vance is gonna have a lot of work to do if he’s gonna be the new fraud czar…Given the fraud convictions of the Trump organization, Trump figured out that he should outsource the investigation to somebody else in the administration. I’m a little worried about what’s in store.”
Racist garbage continues to emanate from this President and his White House.

Amid these dark moments, something important is beginning to shift. It's clearly the result of healthy political pressure - which we must sustain, and build.

They lived, worked, served—and hundreds of them gave their lives—side by side with American troops. Anyone who served in Afghanistan knows how much this mattered, and we will never forget.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 7mo agoTrump on NATO: "I've always said, will they be there if we ever needed them? That's really the ultimate test. I'm not sure of that. We've never needed them. They'll say they sent some troops to Afghanistan and this or that. And they did. They stayed a little back, off the front lines."

President Trump flipping off an autoworker is just the latest insult after a long line of broken promises to American workers and manufacturing communities.
I think a lot of people who have never made a point in their lives that was heard and received by anyone who didn’t already agree w them have no conception of what Buttigieg is doing here—aiming at ppl who don’t know what to think yet—and are unfairly lumping him w Concerned Letter Writing Dems.
Brian Tyler Cohen@briantylercohen.bsky.social · 7mo ago@petebuttigieg.bsky.social: "We have an ICE agent who should have been trained not to be in front of a vehicle and never to shoot into a moving vehicle, and yet this happened on [Kristi Noem's] watch. The whole POINT of Homeland Security is to make this country more stable and safe."
"Iron laws of the world"? Some of America's most important national accomplishments are about leading humanity away from this kind of bullshit. If we let ideologues like Stephen Miller drag us back into a world where brute force is all that matters, all of us will be less safe.
