@ossoff.bsky.social is the only Dem Senator up for reelection in a state Trump won in 2024. MAGA is spending millions to defeat him—and will drop hundreds of millions more by Election Day. Chip in at electjon.com to protect this seat! #BlueWaveIn90Days
He should not be taking Telesterion shots, while being a nutjob abuser. 😒
Tapper: "There are now three women who have accused you of violent behavior…Are all three of these women who don't know each other lying?" Rep. Max Miller: "Yes…It's all hearsay." Tapper: "It's not hearsay if it is firsthand testimony from women."
I imagine you are calling your publisher to add a red banner with white letters saying BANNED IN TEXAS.
Honestly, at this point, Democrats should be thrilled with this -- Miller has set himself on fire and if the GOP wants to hold him close, so be it.

The Wall Street Journal@wsj.com · 18h agoNew York City’s business elites are long accustomed to direct access to City Hall, where even Democratic mayors felt the need to court the city’s wealthiest and most influential corporate leaders. That access is getting shredded by Mayor Zohran Mamdani.

This is basically the implicit argument to trump made about January 6. I haven't been punished for it so it can't have been that bad

The prep isn't as bad as it used to be -- pills, not the drink -- and you'll have one, uh, busy evening and then you go in and get the greatest nap of your life and then eat a glorious meal. Get yourself checked out.
Jessica Luther@jessicawluther.com · 19h agoWell, I am of colonoscopy age now and I got my first-ever one yesterday. The prep wasn't fun but not as awful as I'd imagined. My appt was at 6am on Monday, I was home just after 7am. There's no recovery except catching up on the sleep you missed. So, if you need a nudge to get yours, this is it!
It is a GENIUS messaging strategy to link AI and data centers to dick swinging toxic masculinity and I want more of it.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 5h agoEl-Sayed: "Mike Rogers is a guy who wants to put a data center in your backyard so he can make himself feel a little more manly by making an AI video ... he's a guy who went back to Florida so he could lick every single boot Donald Trump owns to bet for his endorsement."

FOX: What's your big message on the economy? TRUMP: Tariffs have been incredible
WTF. Incredible for whom? Not average Americans! 🤬🤬🤬
They've really enriched the oligarchy while fucking over the American people, which is great news to the worst people we know.
