Hamilton Nolan@hamiltonnolan.bsky.social · 7d agoThe left needs a candidate it can unite around in the 2028 primaries and AOC is the only real choice. Nobody else checks all of the boxes. Every other option is worse. If she doesn't run, it's a missed opportunity of historic proportions. www.hamiltonnolan.com/p/aoc-must-r...

I’m not all that comforted by the fact that the president‘s plan to steal the midterms is incoherent.
Micah@rincewind.run · 3w agocooked, low energy, things of that nature in all seriousness: I’m not going to say we aren’t in trouble because we are obviously in trouble but whining about the SAVE Act is not the act of someone with a coherent plan to steal the elections and when he tries it’s going to be a haphazard shitshow
This article is well-researched and expertly written. There are satellite images and time-lapse photos. And it only exists because the president clings to a preposterous lie. How much productivity has our economy lost due to Trump’s BS? wapo.st/3REsxis
