When your party leader is a president with historically low approval ratings, who has raised prices through tariffs and wars, uses disaster relief and science grants to punish states that didn’t vote for him, and has agents shooting people in the streets, this is what you do.
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 · 11h 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.
Reading the question has me curious what a measurement of Jose's penis might reveal. 🤔
It took quite literally all of existence to get the landscape we enjoy. Once they start there is no getting it back, nature will forever carry the scar of the Anthropocene.
Trump is leaving nothing for us. He’s taking everything for himself. Our National Parks are supposed to be ours, belonging to all of us. They are supposed to be protected from bulldozers and construction crews. This makes me sick. The whole administration makes me sick.
So sick and unnecessary. These assholes just don't care about anything!
The damage this regime is causing is incalculable and irreversible It’s outrageous that it is not being stopped
Mainstream media isn’t talking about it, but bulldozers and construction crews have descended upon Texas’ Big Bend National Park as the Trump administration moves forward with its border barrier project. The project will permanently damage one of our nation’s greatest natural treasures.

ICE set a record in July. 51,000 arrests. Yet…we watch the biggest criminal in US history…walk around unscathed.
Today, in 2025 there are Americans that think Canada is the threat and Russia is their ally. Like for real. (There are some idiot Canadians who believe this too, wow)
This is genuinely astonishing: a piece by the Globe and Mail’s editorial board lamenting the “new normal” of wildfires and summer smoke and no mention whatsoever of a) climate change, or b) the burning of fossil fuels that causes it. #cdnpoli www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/edit...

The topline from Abdul El-Sayed’s win is that his platform for change still managed to win despite grotesque levels of outside campaign spending and a racist smear campaign to paint him as un-American. The grassroots desire to upset the status quo is that powerful.
The booing of what sounds like a foreign (and no doubt in the man's mind, 'Islamic') name, really speaks volumes about the mindset of some Trump supporters. Even when Trump is gone, this white Christian nationalist section of US society will still remain.

Q: Is there any chance of Trump administration giving Ukraine PAC-3 missiles? SEN. COONS: Chance? Yes. Am I confident they will? No. Because every time Trump suddenly becomes persuaded that maybe we should side with Ukraine, he has a call with Putin, and changes his mind again.

On this day in 1944, the Gestapo found Anne Frank and her family in their Secret Annex. Her diary stands as a warning against hatred and persecution. Eighty years later, we should recognize the warning signs before it’s too late.🙂↕️
