The point where all of this matters was in 2024 where a metric shit ton of voters abdicated their responsibility and left marginalized people in this fascist hellscape.
area denial weapon@cuyama.bsky.social · 20h agoliberals will really be like "i would rather let this country burn than vote for the person who won my parties primary" lol, you guys are so cooked
Good job Germany didn't send Ukraine those Taurus missiles. It really helped prevent an escalation.

Susan Collins announcing she'll vote against a controversial nominee is basically the moment it becomes clear that nominee will be confirmed. It means Thune has enough votes to confirm, and thus, Collins gets a pass to look independent.
she's deployed this strategy again and again, only deviating where her vote was a deciding one, a la Kavanaugh

I am so glad @willsommer.bsky.social did this, he’s just reporting out what we’ve all been thinking youtu.be/NU9eTaRdJSQ?...

But he is the progressive wing lol. He literally was a DSA member who does performative bs all the time & quit them because of the outright pro-Hamas rally before Israel even retaliated after 10/7. His opponent was endorsed by the CBC. Y’all gotta make up your minds with these dumb labels. 😂
Rep. Chuck Edwards, R-N.C., has dropped his reelection campaign after the House Ethics Committee released a report alleging he had persistent, unprofessional, and inappropriate conduct toward two young female staffers. Rep. Edwards has called the allegations baseless.
I don’t think Jesus would like this one bit, but it’s not like Mike Johnson is actually a follower of Christ, rather he is a power-hungry, lying sack of shit.
Kyle Griffin@kylegriffin1.bsky.social · 9h agoMike Johnson tells Politico that he's standing behind Republican Max Miller — despite the "serious" domestic abuse allegations against him.
My equally ice cold boring take is you underestimate The Bernie Left's obsession with attaching apocalyptic overtones to every race one of his acolytes wins. The margin of victory and the character of the person who wins - hello, Graham Platner - is irrelevant.
Matthew Gertz@mattgertz.bsky.social · 7h agoMy ice-cold boring take that will definitely not go viral is that a primary result with a margin of victory of roughly 1 percent tells you precisely nothing about The Future Of The Party.
Neither faction is dominant, securing a Senate and House majority will rest on voters from both backing candidates of each.

Doctors say that you should eat a balanced diet that includes whole grains and fresh fruits and vegetables. A guy who snorts cocaine off toilet seat seats and doesn’t wipe his ass says you should subsist entirely on sauerkraut and steak. For a busy eaters it can be hard to know who to trust.
The thing about Medicare for All is do we trust the Trump regime of any future Republican pres empowered by SCOTUS’ “Unitary Executive Theory” to administer, manage and fund it fairly and appropriately? If he has full control over Exec branch, what’s to stop him from firing everyone and impoundment?
Did you see how Apple, Amazon Walmart and other big companies are refunding the billions of dollars they got back from the federal tariff settlement to their customers, who ultimately bore the cost of higher prices? Yea, me neither.
Ha ha, Sawant lost! Hopefully she’ll finally stop running for office, nobody wants her narcissistic, do-nothing, sanctimonious bull shit.
And now my state is cloaked in a suffocating blanket of smoke as our forests, towns and homes burn. These fires and this smoke did not happen when I was a kid—this is the impact of man-made climate change that Big Oil has spent millions to hide. Can’t hide it anymore assholes!
Of course. they dirty deleted and I'm sure Black voters won't get the apology we deserve.😒 bsky.app/profile/admi...
Malcolm P. Johnson@admiralmpj.bsky.social · 24h agoThe New Republic got ahold of itself and deleted this post, but...I still got a screen grab of it:
Republican legislators, strategists and donors are the creepiest, most perverted, corrupt and creepy ass mf’ers—from their involvement with Epstein and the Epstein cover up, to their *obsession* with inspecting child athlete genitals, all the sexual abuse, and domestic violence. Rotten to the core!!
Calling this party weird barely covers it. The further the world gets from this putrid administration the weirder it will look.
Rhon🌻✌️☮️📎🦋👂🙉@hollyhockcottage.bsky.social · yesterdayFormer White House aide Max Miller earned the nickname "The Music Man" because he was tasked with playing show tunes—including "Memory" from the musical Cats—to calm down President Donald Trump and prevent him from getting angry
Y’all are racist as HELL. And you really think we can’t see you saying this mess in👏🏾broad👏🏾daylight👏🏾 Your coded “low information voters” rhetoric translates to indignation that we have the nerve to think for ourselves—you resent that you can’t get us to fall for the okie doke. Racist and dumb.
Black voters are the most informed voters of any demo I will die on that hill
I guess @newrepublic.com deleted their post on here. Is the article by the 22 year old white lady explaining how Black voters are stupid still up on their site? and will they ever apologize?
Florida Chris@chrislongview.bsky.social · yesterdayI wish I found it hard to believe that you hired a very white lady to say Black voters are stupid instead of finding a Black writer to explain the litany of concerns they address when Black people choose their candidates.
I saw a poll from Michigan showing almost 70% of Black ppl are voting for Stevens. Why? My guess it's because it polls show her beating the Republican. Black ppl are pragmatic voters. There is no reason the Dems shouldn't win the Senate. But between Platner and El-Syed it's gonna be tight.
Doesn’t matter which days or how many days, when it only took Max Miller a few minutes to commit this monstrous act of corporal violence against a very small child.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 24h agoRep. Max Miller: "When I was reported for child abuse of my daughter for a broken collarbone, my daughter was in my ex-wife's care 9 out of the last 11 days and she took her to the emergency room, which is a contempt violation from our shared parenting plan."
