I did a double take realizing I just saw LaRosa's name on the Islamophobic petition against Mamdani attending the 9/11 Memorial.

I’m so sick of people wanting to be coddled and comforted. You’re in the fight to break this “Status Quo” or you’re not. We need competent leadership, not vibes!
This is a fake tweet. 9-year-old Zohran Mamdani didn’t tweet this 9/11 joke 5 years before Twitter was even created.

‘But what kind of future are we really hurtling towards? Increasingly, it is looking… like the one anticipated by the drugged-up 1960s oeuvre of Philip K Dick, filled with deranged billionaires, machines that claim consciousness, hallucinated worlds & political breakdown’ www.ft.com/content/bdcf...
I’m sorry, but I disagree. Discussion around this topic for some reason always comes back to they don’t want to vote like this, but they are “afraid” or they are “cowards.” It’s pattern of behavior and it suggests to me they WANT all of this. After 2016, I finally understood the Republican Party. 
Blanche’s confirmation underscores a simple truth: a handful of Republicans in Congress could stop this chaos tomorrow. They simply choose not to.
Doesn’t look like unconditional surrender. At least by Iran. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/08/w...

“Unity without accountability” is just manipulative gaslighting rooted in the same supremacy and steadfast colonization that powered plantations. Except this pattern is less obvious and more painful… A “blue 🌊” under these current ⛺️ circumstances won’t change shit if we don’t call a thing a thing🤷🏽♀️
NBC: New Mexico sues the Dep't of Justice and Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, saying the federal gov't blocked the state’s ability to investigate the sex crimes of Jeffrey Epstein at a ranch there. There is nothing more deep state than covering for a pedophile. #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed
Wildfires don’t recognize borders, and neither does compassion!🇨🇦🇲🇽 Thank you to the courageous firefighters from Mexico who have traveled far from home to help protect British Columbia! Your bravery, sacrifice & solidarity will never be forgotten!❤️🔥 #BCWildfires #ThankYou #Canada #Mexico #SheShed
The Democratic Party needs to get comfortable with a certain kind of ruthlessness.
Talking about how out of touch you are with how it all works but BIG talkers - like Maga you listen to hype over any real facts … We will win in the midterms because the opposite party always does .. But when they don’t deliver will go back to Republicans- learn some history .. and how it all works
"What kind of country manufactures prosecutions against political opponents?"
We need to stop GOP sharia law. It already has taken away the freedom of women in 13 states where they have total abortion bans. Their goal is total domination. GOP sharia law is NOT compatible with a democratic Republic. It must be defeated!!
Hey Republican Senators – a vote to confirm Todd Blanche is aiding and abetting a cover-up of Epstein's and Maxwell's crimes. Full stop. You are all accomplices.
Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski don’t get a pass for voting against confirming Blanche because they always vote this way when they know the Democrats don’t have the votes. Filler votes. 🤬
Because they are inviting Piker to campaign and speak at rallys with them
Piker has crossed the line many times for years. Lied on and smeared and mocked VP Harris and Biden. Said he didn’t care about Black voters (using vile language) Was swearing and abusive to an immigrant who fled communist country, the list goes on
He already has. Many times. “America deserved 9/11, dude. F— it, I'm saying it.” (August 2019 Twitch livestream). “I'm a lesser evil voter and therefore I would vote for Hamas over Israel every single time.” (April 2026 Pod Save America interview). www.threads.com/share/_lVeU5...
Piker is really, really toxic and Democrats and *especially* DSA folks need to internalize this now before he says something that crosses the moral event horizon.
Hasan Piker's call for unity lasted less than 24 hours. Predictable. x.com/i/status/208...

An immigration enforcement system that punishes people for the government’s own delay is a system which destroys its own legitimacy. People are being thrown in handcuffs and put in ICE detention despite having done every single thing the U.S. government asked them to do.
This couple came legally. They applied for asylum before their visas expired, wanting to do it all by the books. After six months, they applied for work permits to stay afloat, passing background checks. They worked legally and paid taxes while government delay dragged on. Then ICE came for them.
The couple’s arrest outside Midway Airport aligns with what immigration attorneys across the country have observed in recent months: an increase in ICE arrests at airports of people traveling domestically with expired visas but pending immigration cases. www.chicagotribune.com/2026/08/05/c...
Sounds like he realizes that Republican ratfuckers are the reason Stevens didn't win the primary outright. With this margin, it wouldn't have taken many.
