Husband, father, grandfather, justice matters, rule of law matters, “It’s a republic, if you can keep it”. Also, Fuck cancer!
We proved it in Wisconsin. We proved it in New York City. We proved it in dozens of special elections over the past year. People power over money!
Robert Reich@rbreich.bsky.social · 8h agoAbdul El-Sayed was outspent 9-to-1 by AIPAC and corporate Super PACs in the most expensive Senate Democratic primary of all time. Last night, he proved that organized people can beat organized money.
The fact that the Democratic senators are agreeing to a continuing resolution until Dec 11th with NO compromises for them is absolute political malpractice and head scratching. Why not even try to ban like…. The arch? Anything!
Dozens of gas-burning power plants are being built across the country, solely to power data centers. These plants could emit as much planet-warming pollution as half of all passenger vehicles in the entire country in a single YEAR. We need a data center moratorium — now.
The Golden State's self appointed “rivals” had the largest increases in job losses. Texas was #1 — up 108,000 Florida was #2 — up 79,000 Meanwhile, fewer Californians are out of work!
Sanders: The irony is that the proper criticism of communism is that the Soviet Union was an authoritarian society. And then you’ve got the most authoritarian president in the history of this country. So I suppose when he says, “I’d be a great communist,” yeah, I think there’s some truth to that
Young people under 40 better wake tf up- this 80 year old dirty stink is destroying your future. The 5 guys running this country put this party fluffer in charge of “cosmetics”, so you don’t notice them.
A new humiliation. ICE is calling in Haitian immigrants in Ohio only to shackle them with ankle monitors that require constant, degrading charging routines. As leader Vilès Dorsainvil warns, treating legal, hard-working residents like criminals isn't policy—it's pure human degradation! 🎥HaitianTimes

In a country with a president who is such a destructive sore loser, politicians who are both helpful and gracious in defeat is a greatly appreciated novelty.
If you thought John Mitchell or Bill Barr were bad… just you wait.

Gill: All 100 senators last week passed a non-binding resolution condemning any pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell. They're simultaneously considering confirming the guy who met with her and moved her to a low-security facility as the top cop in the United States. That is so insane to me.

El-Sayed: "They think they want to use my whole name against me. Mike, listen man, If you can't say the name -- it's Abdulrahman -- keep the name out your damn mouth."
It was over for Max Miller politically when he said his wife couldn’t have been abused because she offered to make him dinner 6 days later. He may not have known it when he said it, but that was the end. You have to be a sick bastard to come up with that as your defense.
El-Sayed: "Mike, I'm gonna say it right now, I know you're gonna say no because you're a coward: Five debates, alright? ... By the time we're done, you are not gonna have safe quarter from people holding you accountable to what you've done for them here in Michigan. We will send you back to Florida"
Rare credit where it’s due. This is the correct headline.
Story of many many Americans lives.. the medical stuff shouldn’t be political But somehow that has become Toxic too????

You could have voted to impeach in January 2000. Instead, you voted for no witnesses and no documents to be allowed at trial. You are a failed person, Cornyn.
