Just like a lot of pundits have internalized the idea that conservatives are the only real Americans, they have internalized the idea that right wing christianity is the only real American religious tradition

That’s The Vivienne, who’s British and passed away last year. All 4 were contestants on RuPaul’s Drag Race. Someone in that PAC is a (closeted) fan.

Ashton Pittman@ashtonpittman.bsky.social · 4h agoI'd just like to point out that the Cindy Hyde-Smith campaign and Republicans spent a lot of money to portray Scott Colom as "The Transgender Defender." He never took the bait and never responded to it. And it failed. In Mississippi. People just didn't care.
The framers of Mississippi’s 1890 constitution openly said that their intent was to block Black political power. The system they set up has been incredibly effective at achieving its original goals. On one major aspect of the structural racism Scott Colom and Mississippi voters just overcame:

When Beijing allegedly targeted the CEO powering the global AI revolution, intelligence alerted the White House—and the president chose silence over national security.

Adam Smith told @gregsargent.bsky.social "I am firmly in favor of impeaching Hegseth in the majority. I think we should do this. I will push for it. We want to do it right, and we want the caucus to be as unified as possible." I hope we add everything below and Signalgate as well.
Ron Filipkowski@ronfilipkowski.bsky.social · yesterdayLots of things left out of Massie’s resolution that can be added by Dems. Refusal to allow transfer of Patriots to Ukraine, pushing out women, illegal tampering w/promotions, polygraphing officers, political speeches to troops, weapons contracts to cronies. We can do this better.
With Scott Colom, Mississippi has elected a Black senator for the first time since 1881. Just six years after retiring our Confederate state flag. www.mississippifreepress.org/cnn-projects...

Rep. Thomas Massie has successfully forced a second House vote to facilitate the release of files related to Jeffrey Epstein.
Massie Successfully Forces Another Epstein Files Vote
Rep. John Garamendi was the sole Democratic holdout before he signed the discharge petition Wednesday.

Massie is leaving Congress with no stone unturned. A bipartisan effort to get to the bottom of one of the most disgusting scandals must move forward. We deserve the truth, and Epstein’s victims deserve to see the monsters who abused them face accountability.
The fact that the threatening letter came from the White House Counsel Will Scharf and not the DOJ tells you that it’s a political rhetorical document. It’s an over the top one as well: there’s not the faintest possibility of a crime by the incoming Democratic legislators talking oversight.
It is also a self-own: The ignominious Scharf letter will very likely damage the Trump administration in any litigation that Congress pursues in courts. Full letter obtained and provided here by @punchbowlnews.bsky.social: punchbowl.news/wh-hill_lett...
Will Scharf is the Waylon Smithers of the White House. He’s the guy who hands Trump the meaningless executive orders. He can be safely ignored, and should be loudly mocked wherever he goes.
🔴 ⚠️ BREAKING: Nvidia prepares to replace CEO Jensen Huang - WSJ. $NVDA
The scene on the ground in DeSoto County following news of Colom's projected win:
🚨BREAKING: Democrat Scott Colom has won Mississippi’s U.S. Senate race, unseating Republican incumbent Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith, CNN and others are projecting. Colom will be the first Black senator to represent the state in over 140 years.
Scott Colom will defeat Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith in a major upset to become the first Democrat that voters in deep-red Mississippi have elected to the chamber in more than four decades, CNN projects.
The preparation & planning that led to this was years in the making. Congrats to a phenomenal campaign, @scolom.bsky.social. The people of Mississippi are in good hands, after generations.

"Their activists" is astounding to me. Pure projection. To a hack, anyone who disagrees with you must also be a hack.
