I don't know who needs to hear this, but Tom Steyer spent a record $200M to prove conclusively that even the biggest war chest can't get Progressive ideas in the top 2 in the bluest state in the nation. There is no latent socialist lumpenproletariat waiting to be enlightened. Stop pretending.

This may be a great idea--strategically. Think about it. If DHS has to get restructured, it departs from the Project 2025 script--and the regime isn't prepared for that.
Rep. Delia C. Ramirez has introduced a bill that would abolish not just ICE, but the DHS altogether, repealing the 2002 law establishing the agency and replacing it with one focused on protecting civil and human rights.
Oh no. And poor Enrique Tarrio had assured us all he had an ETA exemption, in spite of his fraud and terrorism and gun crime convictions. Whatever injustice might have caused these travel difficulties?
I will never get what's so hard to understand about this:
Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and the CDC have stopped recommending seven vaccines for children, including vaccines that protect against hepatitis B, RSV, and meningitis. These vaccines have kept millions of children out of the hospital and saved countless lives. I'm suing.
I’m really angry that my dad is dead while Trump is alive.
My sweet dad passed away yesterday, four days after his 93rd birthday. He died at home with hospice, peacefully and comfortably, with my mom by his side. They’d been married 66 years. What a love. What a life. What a guy. I say ye, Bernie Bierman.
Fuck these sons of bitches and fuck the bitches and bastards that raised them.
WE’RE NOT DOOMED 69: Thu Sept 25, 2026 Step away from the fear mongering for a second and hear some stories were we are fighting and winning. Starting in California Read my newsletter for all sources and more details: www.thedailyelm.com/p/were-not-d...
"We did things your way" bud my way was electing 60 Dems to the Senate, at what point did you even *try* that? You resisted the *whole way here*! The best you tried was elevating an ancient socialist and then flame out as he surrounded himself with nutjobs not dissimilar from yourself.
No, the only thing we're "done with" is giving a shit what underemployed Bush-era teenage Republicans say as they approach 40 and cast about for a personality
I kid around a lot on BSKY but these are the top 6 Senate candidates where even a $5 donation will have an outsized impact.
For absolutely no reason whatsoever I would like to reiterate that it is the acme of foolishness to have your healthcare tied to your job.
Stopped by my optometrist because my new glasses need adjusting. “What can I do for you?” the tech said. “I picked these glasses up yesterday and they don’t sit on my face correct...ly...” And then I got up and walked out and I’m never going back and I’ll be changing my name. Farewell.
So ICE agents are getting fired before their probationary periods are up and are having to repay the $50,000 signing bonus. I love this for them.
If Schumer or Jeffries or Hochul or any other NY Dem attended an event with Donald Trump like this and said this quote the DSA would light DNC headquarters on fire.
Mamdani: "We also know the president not just as the leader of the country, but also as someone who has built quite a lot of housing in our city."
ELECTION UPDATES - Independents have a convention next wk in DC Skim through the attendees. You may recognize a ton of the spoiler candidates. Be aware of their agenda as it emerges and how their presence in an election can siphon off votes and help a Republican win the seat.
The more I look into what I'm calling "the Manchin plan" to take the Senate & the House HOSTAGE & Joe Manchin's independent leadership council the worse it gets. LOOK AT THE BOTTOM ROW! Osborn -NE. Bodnar-MT. Bengs -SD. Achilles -ID.
It doesn’t work this way, but I like to imagine that he and Jeffries are trying to deradicalize the left by having him do the same things everyone yelled at Jeffries for doing shortly after the yelling, just to make the yelling look stupid.
I expect to hear a lot of crickets.
Obama: “Imagine if I had pulled Fox News’ credentials from the White House press corps. You’re laughing, but this is what’s happening. It’s unimaginable that the same parties that are silent right now would have tolerated behavior like that from me.” Clip courtesy @meidastouch.com
Finally saw that Converse ad. My dudes, I'm the whitest of white people and even I saw what the fuck that looked like (don't post the ad in my comments, thanks)
Ben Meiselas unloads on Trump losing the Iran war and pretending he's winning: “It’s like they’re running around with shit in their pants and they stink… Dude, you shit in your pants. You stink. We all saw what happened. Stop acting like you didn’t shit in your pants...Stop the insanity, damn it!”
Allegations against Lauren Boebert include sexual relations with Congressional employees, hush money payments, and thousands of dollars in misused official and campaign funds. Here's the redacted complaint: media.coloradotimesrecorder.com/wp-content/u...

Mike Johnson is completely useless. Meanwhile, Dems are unified, let’s spread that message for a change.
