Emmer chickened out. Chapin showed up.

Heartland Signal@heartlandsignal.bsky.social · yesterday

"Far too many members of Congress... seem to be content to stay in Washington, away from their constituents." MN DFL CD6 candidate Doug Chapin called out U.S. Rep. Tom Emmer (R) at #Farmfest for skipping the event and dodging rural voters in his district.

My mom isn’t someone who talks about herself much so every now and then she does a crazy lore drop like the time she was a bookseller and ran into a drunk Erica Jong at a trade expo

This is something you can (and should) do if you don't live in DC as well. It's a righteous cause and a bullshit move by DoorDash.

Mark Joseph Stern@mjsdc.bsky.social · 2w ago

Just canceled my DashPass and sent this email to DoorDash. I encourage you to do the same if you support D.C. home rule. press@doordash.com and ir@doordash.com

I posted for DC folks earlier but @keyachatterjee.bsky.social is right by replying to me that ANYONE from ANYWHERE can show DC solidarity and delete your Doordash account. Even better, email or message them to let them know why you did it. Nobody's going to save us but us.

This was the worst Congressional attack on DC Home Rule we've seen, and Doordash admits they instigated. DELETE YOUR DOORDASH Account. Mobile: In the app, go to the Me tab. Navigate to Manage Account → Manage Account and enter your login credentials; then, select Delete Account.

Free DC@freedcproject.bsky.social · 2w ago

For the last year and a half, DoorDash has been silent as delivery drivers in DC have been hunted in the streets and even killed by ICE and other federal police. Now, the company has come out in support of #HR9720 — the blatant attack on DC Home Rule — just so it can earn more money.

Please call House Oversight members to let them know how angry DC residents are about H.R. 9720, which upends the Congressional review process for DC's finances and is the THIRD time Congress has come for DC's $$$ docs.google.com/document/d/1...

I don’t know a ton about this race but attacking El-Sayed because his wife’s practice doesn’t accept Medicare and Medicaid feels pretty weak.

L.J. Hummel@ljhummel.bsky.social · 2w ago

FULL financial disclosure. And Liz was all about Medicare for all but the candidate’s wife reuses to accept Medicare & Medicaid. Strangely, she keeps supporting candidates whose alignment with the working class is limited to speeches and attacks against actual Democrats who actually get results.

It is weird to see posts about the arrests of the Tate brothers that are focused on what Andrew was wearing and what he looked like in the photos.

@erinbiba.bsky.social sorry if I’m doing this wrong but here’s another Platner supporter/rape apologist for the bin

Walter Robards@alouicious.bsky.social · 4w ago

I never once suggested she was "asking for it". I was questioning the concept of "revoke consent at any time". You can say no at any point in the process and it should be respected, but there are point at which saying no is meaningless. You cannot say no AFTER the fact and have it be a valid excuse.

Y’all, the Platner campaign would like your feedback on them getting a say in Maine’s new Dem senate candidate. Here’s the link! 😇 www.surveymonkey.com/r/9XL7GGG

Ok blind man hater.

This is from the NYT story about Platner being a creep: “Ms. Racicot also said that in 2021 he arrived at her house drunk, after she had asked him not to come over. She declined to elaborate, but said she cut off contact soon after that episode and found his behavior ‘reckless’ and ‘unsettling.’”
