Seattle Sun tonight. Booooo

A caucus of violent, drunk ex-husbands controls three branches of government and both chambers of Congress.

Rep. Max Miller: "My former wife has claimed that during a custody exchange at my home that day, I assaulted her…If I had assaulted her, would she have offered to cook me dinner six days later?"

I was so lucky to get to do vocal improvisations with my dear friend Amy Denio and these fucking legends in Seattle and Portland when they were on tour for this album! If you’ve never heard this eX-Girl record stop everything and listen now. And then thank me. youtu.be/U9WAVi_HPcs?...

If he won’t defend the United States of America from a country he’s attacking, he should be removed from office. Hard to think of a anything that could be less controversial than that.

This is a crisis of federalism. Tim Walz is asserting as fact that Iran attacked water infrastructure in Minnesota and several other states. And Trump is saying it's Minnesota's own fault they were attacked as part of a war he started.

The Permanent Apportionment Act of 1929, which froze the House of Representatives at 435, using the 1910 census because of racism, sexism, and hatred of cities (which eclipsed rural areas for the first time in US history in the 1920 census). I must see it dead before its hundredth birthday.

What is an extremely nerdy/obscure/specific thing you hate with a white-hot wrath?

There is absolutely no reason for any trans person to give Democrats cover to abandon full trans equality on any issue, in any region, in any race, to even the tiniest iota.

just so we’re clear, America banned transgender people from sports before they banned guns from schools

this is how dumb you sound, democrats, when you accept the absurd premise that this is an issue that you need to campaign on

Trump: "We had transgender for everybody. Men in women's sports came ravaging through our cities."

This movie is hitting harder every time I watch it.

The fact that VP JD Vance and Richard Grenell went to Romania—on behalf of the Trump Administration— to advocate for Andrew and Tristan Tate, who by all accounts, were rapists running a coercive sex ring, then permitted them to come to Florida, should be a crazy, crazy scandal.

AQI in Minneapolis is now 530. It’s over 80 degrees at 11pm. For neighbors without air conditioning, and our neighbors experiencing unsheltered homelessness, these are incredibly dangerous conditions. I’ll be out tomorrow with masks and cold water, checking on neighbors. Please do the same.

Watch out LA, this is an ICE vehicle spotted in Echo Park. IceWatch confirmed. Details in the alt text

The news should be covering ICE like a serial killer on the loose

I don’t think it’s good that ICE is on a murder spree

remember, be careful what you post on a day like this. If you do it right, you can get illegally fired for being disrespectful to Lindsay Graham and then win a massive lawsuit about 10 months from now and retire with 2 million in your pocket

We never have to hear another word from that asshole ever again.

He said what he said.

I don't think the government of a democracy should have masked secret police that roam the country murdering people, with their actions treated as totally outside the law.

📣 A reminder that if you donated to the Graham Platner campaign via ActBlue within the past 90 days, here's the instructions on how to request a refund: help.actblue.com/hc/en-us/art...

"Why didn't she come forward until now?" I don't know, maybe because she hoped at least one of MANY OTHER RED FLAGS would be enough to give you fuckers pause and she wouldn't have to disclose one of the worst things that ever happened to her to POLITICO so you all could pick at it like vultures.

the platner situation is a good reminder that when everyone with the worst political instincts in the world all line up behind one candidate that’s actually a bad sign

alright I'm sick of reading about platner let's get back to what matters

If roughing up a girlfriend and locking her in a room was a virile, authentic a rejection of “smoothgroined” “HR lady” politics, but a rape is too far, then what’s at stake is not a principled rejection of violence against women but a cynical assessment of how much violence a man can get away with.

Oh its OVER OVER

He lied about every single thing. Everyday. He ran knowing full well who he is while presenting himself as someone else (poorly). He wasted everyone’s time & money & shattered people’s credibility. He used the political process as a vanity project to the detriment of the folks he wanted to represent

L.A. going off like a war zone. I love it.

It is time to end the rule of men.

i kinda love this answer, it’s very illuminating. it’s not about female athletes at all, it’s about the fragile egos of delusional psychopathic parents who want returns on their perceived investments

personally I think we should immediately impeach supreme court justices who are willing to lie about the plain meaning of the 14th amendment

the owner of my bar just showed me this “report” he wrote for sunday school when he was a kid. i am fucking crying
