This — very much this. It’s crazy how Platner yields “Dems in disarray,” when action is taken, and crickets about the right when nothing is done with Miller. Another great example about how the media’s default frame is actually right-friendly.
David Roberts@volts.wtf · 2w agoIs any high-profile media outlet going to run a story contrasting how Platner was treated by the Democratic Party (run out on rails) with how Max Miller is being treated by the GOP (protected, supported) and drawing the obvious conclusions?
Guys if you are sharing a NY Post headline deliberately mischaracterizing an out of context Hillary Clinton quote from a podcast to make it sound like she's attacking the left, *she* is not the one who is hurting her own side
I spoke to Gil Durán about his new book THE NERD REICH, on Silicon Valley fascism and its roots iin a combination of extreme wealth, messianic narcissism and batshit right wing ideologies. www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...
‘If we don’t fight back, we don’t have a future’: the journalist taking on the ‘tech fascists’ of Silicon Valley
As Elon Musk, Peter Thiel and their peers have grown richer and more influential, Gil Durán argues they have all but abandoned democracy – and found the perfect government to enable them

Drove past this today in Butler, PA. At first didn’t know what was going on then I noticed a group of people waving flags. I wonder if 47 even gave it or the murdered firefighter a thought today ( of course I’m joking) www.cbsnews.com/pittsburgh/n...

Gov. Shapiro said it best: the President doesn’t run our elections. County officials do — Republicans and Democrats alike. Trump can give all the speeches he wants. He still doesn’t get a vote in how Pennsylvania counts its ballots. #LoserTrumpsElectionLies #Pinks
The smoke from the #Ontario fires are really bad here in southwestern Pennsylvania. I hope everyone in Canada is being safe.

Track AIPAC is an evil propaganda outlet that is stirring up paranoia and anti-semitism. In reality, Ossoff has taken no money from AIPAC.
Screwworms eradicated in the US in 1966. Measles eradicated in the US in 2000. Both are back because of this science denying administration.
Messaging advice: Link Trump’s crimes and failed policies to Republicans over-all. The party is a cult of personality, but Trump’s not on the midterms ballot, and a lot of Republicans are likely to cosplay as moderates in the coming months. Don't let them temporarily disassociate from Trump.
seeing some vibes and let's be crystal clear: if you call yourself leftist or liberal and you're stumping for Marjorie Taylor Greene over AOC, you're a fucking mark and a dipshit and I consider you as low as a Republican
Any "leftist" taking MTG's side over AOC's is either an op or the biggest mark at the carnival
So I see the attacks on Josh Shapiro have started already. The same people showing their antisemitism & spewing the same buzz words they used in 2024. The same culprits, the bots and dividers. I’m tired of their bullshit.
Republicans want an astonishing, debt-exploding $1.5 trillion military budget, more for ICE, billions to bail out failing airlines, and $400 million for Trump’s ballroom. They are looting the treasury and fleecing taxpayers to pay for Trump’s endless wars and vanity projects.
Even when this dark chapter finally ends, I will never forget the immorality, the criminality, and the pure cruelty we’ve seen in service to one of the worst humans to ever walk the earth.
Yikes! Always something… We better wake up to what’s happening online. The right isn’t just posting anymore; they’re scaling influence with AI. 📌 AI-generated pro-Trump “influencers” are surging on social media and are starting to shape what people see and believe.

Forcing the Artemis crew to speak with Donald Trump was part of a NASA training exercise to prepare future astronauts for encounters with less intelligent life forms.
Further away than any people have ever been from the planet before! but they still can’t get away from effing Donald Trump
Reminded of this classic: NASA astronaut Leland D. Melvin with his dogs Jake & Scout. He had to smuggle them into NASA-JSC for the photoshoot in the back of a van.

It is because of people like Franklin Graham that many atheists want nothing to do with the church. “The greatest single cause of atheism in the world today is Christians who acknowledge Jesus with their lips, walk out the door, and deny Him by their lifestyle.
Supporting Platner at this point isn't just some hapless strategic miscalculation, it's indicative of deep moral rot.
Ruben Gallego@gallegoforarizona.com · 6mo agoGraham Platner for Senate is the kind of fighter Maine has been waiting for. He tells it like it is, doesn’t answer to special interests, and shows up every day for working families. A Marine who embodies Maine’s grit and independence. Proud to endorse him.
It’s HBO being part of the Paramount WB merger that’s killing me. Some of my favorite shows are on there like The Pitt, GOT, The Wire, Oz 😩
