Today we’ve got Jordan for Minority leader, RFK defending Russell Brand, and now this guy calling for Diddy to be free? It’s almost like there’s a theme.

Headquarters@headquartersnews.bsky.social · 50m ago

New Republican Congressman Anthony Constantino says that Trump should “free Diddy” because he made “New York exciting” and “he was a job creator”

anyway jim jordan is a monster who should never be in a position of power over anyone ever again

I'm too angry to type this out again

in the next P he says "So we don’t always have to be talking about trans sports or climate change or border security. There are lots of ways for people to develop these complicated appeals" He starts from "who do we socially kill to prove to the right we're tuff enuff?" and works backward from there

Now that the entire centrist argument about electability seems irrelevant in light of recent election wins they are finding new and exciting ways to be weird off-putting guys

Adam Jentleson of Searchlight Institute recommended in his Ezra Klein interview today that Democrats embrace spanking children as a "a very powerful signal" that connects with voters "on a values basis." I didn't think I could dislike the man any more than I already did, but lo!

To my colleagues at NVIDIA, I owe my family and all of you an apology. I was unfaithful to *borat voice* my wife. My actions hurt her and our children. There is no excuse for what I did. I am deeply sorry. Throughout my life, my family has given me love and support. *end borat voice* They deserve

just out of curiosity has nbc or anyone else major done a “hey a bunch of transsexuals living in terror who could not even afford to flee texas have finally exhaled after years of holding their breath and are now wondering if only for a moment if their homeland might not destroy them” piece or nah

“I didn’t think Atlanta’s hand could reach this far.” For conservative voters who moved across the country to escape blue states, recent Democratic victories in Texas and Georgia have shattered their sense of a political safe haven.

The narrative that defends gargantuan CEO pay is that these guys’ brains and judgment are so important that they are worth BILLIONS compared to anyone in their company restocking a vending machine or driving a truck, all of whom know their own phone number or when a romantic partner is using them.

Men who offload all the work of their life onto their partners (usually women) and still excitedly claim a leadership position Tend to be really vulnerable to manipulation bc they do not remember how to take care of themselves physically or psychologically

Just because a Jewish person is in a senior role does not mean it’s good for the Jews. Few people have done more than Miller to normalize the white nationalist, antisemitic, & racist conspiracy theories that have fueled deadly attacks against Jews & so many others. (via @juliaioffe.bsky.social ⬇️)

Gotta say, Dan may have just dropped the most robust post-election analysis to date. Props to Dan.

Even now, over a year out from the death of Silverio Villegas González, I find many people do not realize ICE killed a man just days into the start of Operation Midway Blitz.

"Days after the start of Operation Midway Blitz in Chicago, an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer fatally shot Silverio Villegas González in the suburb of Franklin Park."

Images of memorials to Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and Lorenzo Salgado Araujo covered in "I Voted" stickers went viral last week. But there was one memorial you probably didn’t see in news clips or on social media.

Abolish ICE. Fire them all. Prosecute their crimes.

Elise Wang@elisewang.bsky.social · 2d ago

Reading between the lines, ICE brought a prisoner who needed med attn to the hospital, and when doctors refused to let them into the examination they retaliated by blocking off the ER and forcing ambulances to be rerouted for two hours. ICE has to be the new congress’s first priority.

You can tell AI is a very real industry by the way it implodes unless a sympathetic political party has totally unchecked power

New JStreet poll of Jewish Americans Israel’s actions in Gaza increase antisemitism in US: 80% AIPAC’s spending against israel-critical candidates increases antisemitism: 66% Jewish orgs that say criticism of Israel is antisemitic are exploiting antisemitism to defend unpopular Israel policy: 60%

Voting to get an adult to molest every girl doing extracurriculars in order to fuck over fewer specific children than you can count on two hands. Shameful doesn’t begin to describe it

OPB@opb.org · 5d ago

At least half the states in the country have some kind of restriction on trans girls in sports. But Washington would be one of the first to require medical testing to verify birth sex. Other states with bans require only proof of birth sex via a birth certificate.

You’re locked inside a movie theater for 24 hours. You can only watch movies starring one actor the entire time. Whose filmography are you choosing? If not just because it'd be ironic to watch the movie Inside (2023 ) in that scenario but also, my man has been in a lot of fucking bangers lol

GOP leaders say the Iran war cost them the midterms. But voters I’ve talked to this week say that’s only part of the story. Even lifelong Republicans seem to be losing patience with what they see as petty rhetoric and grift by current and former Trump officials.

When a congresswoman signaled that Greg Bovino could soon face a congressional oversight hearing, the former Border Patrol commander seized the opportunity to hawk his bourbon brand. The $99 whiskey bottles feature “Chief Bovino” in his government uniform.

Jeffries needs to stop characterizing it as "revenge" rather than accountability

Kevin M. Kruse@kevinmkruse.bsky.social · 6d ago

I understand the impulse and Jeffries didn't help with his comments on Morning Joe's Centrist Zoo Crew today, but if you look at the committees and committee chairs that matter when it comes to oversight, they seem ready to roll. Still, doesn't hurt to call your reps and push them there.

Penzey’s Spices currently drafting a newsletter that ends with “the streets will run red with the blood of our enemies”

This is not about party politics. This is about a trillionaire who made it his life's mission to kill poor and brown people by taking away lifesaving aid, to make the world unsafe for trans folks, and to install fascist governments. Olive branch my ass. Fuck him and his enablers. Now and forever.

I've been saying this for months. The pitch by conservatives after the failure of Trump will be "the Jews stole your victory from you." It's their stab-in-the-back reup.

Joel S.@joelhs.bsky.social · 6d ago

American Jewish groups like the ADL so bought into "Republicans are the pro-Israel party who will protect us from the anti-Israel left" that they are unprepared for a world where JD Vance runs on "Israel betrayed MAGA." And unlike Mamdani, he won't be careful to distinguish "Israel" from "Jews."

Win-win: either he doesn't veto and it becomes law, or he does veto and it becomes an even more popular policy for 2028.

Elad Nehorai@eladn.bsky.social · 6d ago

This may sound crazy to some, but Trump has shown repeatedly that when something is popular he is afraid to push back. Democrats should go in with the assumption that popular policies like universal healthcare can not just be passed, but also not vetoed.

I am so fucking tired of "seeking justice" being framed as "getting even." Arresting and/or impeaching people who are legitimately guilty of actual crimes is not revenge. It is justice. Innocent people should be released from detention and guilty people should be in prison. Again, that is JUSTICE.
