David Rothkopf@djrothkopf.bsky.social · 11h agoWith primaries behind us, it's now time for Dems to focus on winning in Nov. That'll involve something hard: establishment Dems will need to ask what they can learn from progressives, progressives will have to focus on what they can learn from centrists & both'll have to find ways to work together.
On this day in 1876, Mary Ritter Beard was born. Her 1946 book, Woman as Force in History, criticized male historians for ignoring women. She argued that women “have been a force in making all the history that has been made.” A male reviewer called Beard’s book “rather waspish.” #WeTheMen

DESPICABLE! THE PREDICTION MARKET PROMOTES THE OBSTRUCTION FIREFIGHTERS OR FOLKS TO GO OUT AND COMMIT ARSON! It's absolutely nuts!
Notice DOJ doesn't talk about its efforts to obtain state voter files anymore. They are 0-20 in those cases and today is the beginning of the quiet period -- states can no longer do systematic removals of names from the voter rolls. TLDR: We won!🥳
In the 1950s we had 700 different chemicals in our food Today we have over 10,000 in our food In Europe, they only have 700 still today. Kelloggs makes the safer Canadian version and the American version. Two different options, same manufacturer. Americans have been sold out sadly.
@jamestalarico.bsky.social for Texas US Senate gets it - under his opponent Ken Paxton and Gov. Abbott, data centers are running amok in TX. Talarico has a sensible plan to regulate data centers. Texas, he is the right choice for your next senator, not the corrupt, 15 home owning Paxton.
Yay! In a time where one political party relies on dumbing down Americans to achieve their evil goals, having access to books and education is priceless people!

Honestly is anyone surprised? I'm not. This is what you get when you elect a criminal who wants to be king to be President. Project 2025 told us exactly what was going to happen. And here we are.
He really doesn’t think at all about what he’s saying! 🙄
Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto@cortezmasto.senate.gov · 8h agoI’m glad the President has his priorities straight.
El-Sayed: "If all Mike Rogers got is that 'his name is Abdul, and my name is Mike,' you're gonna be surprised how many people are like, 'Yeah, but that's the Abdul who wants to bring down the price of my groceries and make sure I got healthcare. So yeah, I like Abdul over your Mike from Florida.'"

ICYMI last night, DHS is currently being fined every day for contempt of court until it coughs up the cell phone records of officers involved in immigration stops in L.A. last year that looked like racial profiling rather than reasonable cause. short thread -->

BREAKING: The New Mexico Department of Justice has sued Acting AG Todd Blanche and the DOJ, requesting the court for access to unredacted Epstein-related investigative files that the DOJ has been withholding.
El-Sayed: "My commitment to Jewish safety is the same commitment that I have to the safety of my own daughters. Because if there is one question of political philosophy that ought to animate us all, it's what would we do if we treated all our kids like they were all of our kids?"
And that’s how an intelligent and mature adult concedes to a loss. Republicans please take note.
MeidasTouch@meidastouch.com · 10h agoA gracious concession: “I want to congratulate Abdul El-Sayed on winning the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate. He is a doctor, a community health official, a Rhodes Scholar, and a dedicated Michigander. I am proud to offer my support as he takes on Mike Rogers in the general election…
Love it! They never learn. That’s true stupidity.

And another money making scam from our alleged “President “? The level of open corruption, and the willing complicity of Republicans to let Felon47 do it, in clear violation of their oaths of office is why I strongly feel that they ALL deserve jail time. And not just a few years. It has to hurt.

Phang: "Capital One said, 'We don't want the business anymore of the 45th president of the United States, his businesses, his failed sons, and his revocable trust.' So you can imagine -- I am just hypothesizing... but it suggests whatever Capital One uncovered was pretty bad. Makes you wonder..."
