AIPAC is the biggest source of Republican money in Democratic elections, and now they are making clear they will spend even more to defeat Democrats in November. They advocate for policies the vast majority of Democrats viscerally disagree with. No Democrat should be taking money from AIPAC.

Anyway, Karl Rove mentioned, so I need to share this comedian's bit about working at Fox News: www.youtube.com/shorts/z76kW...

some specific democrats suck and they suck in ways that are detrimental to issues that you personally care about you know how you solve that once we are past the primaries? you elect even more democrats so that their votes are less important joe manchin couldn’t have done as much damage as vote 52
Money out of politics. Money in your pocket. Medicare for All. Michigan... We won. I am so proud to be your Democratic nominee for US Senate. Let's win in November.
Republicans and Centrists who do a "Gosh Golly" are fucking radioactive with real people right now. Take advantage
we are at the point where huge swathes of the media sees their only job as getting attention from the public and giving nothing back and you're supposed to juuust tell enough truth that you can't be called an outright liar, just get the click anyhow, it is used car sales masquerading as journalism
It’s like how there was that one professor who thought the recent interstellar asteroids were likely to be alien spaceships, and even though the rest of the scientific community disagreed with him, it was reported as “scientist says…”
rich folks like big cities for reasons. they aren’t leaving just because they’ll be forced to cough up what amounts to pennies for them. they can simply stay mad someone finally made them do it.
Today in least shocking news ever. Of course Griffin was never leaving NYC. www.curbed.com/article/ken-...
it’s wild that @jaketapper.bsky.social and others aren’t spending every waking minute on noted wife-beater and donald trump csam supplier max miller and instead think aes vs haley stevens or some other bullshit is worth covering
Cornyn's & Tillis's caves on Blanche's confirmation are just further evidence that there are no good elected Republicans—zero, zed, null set—none who can be trusted to uphold the rule of law rather than slavishly submit to Trump.
They have the ultimate power, the lame duck power, they could choose to do whatever tf they want to do. And they chose this. So no, Trumpism alone is not the issue. Entire Republican party is rotten to the core.
the intentional abdication by Congress of nearly all of its constitutional responsibilities is at the core of most of our problems as a nation
Cornyn: "There's nothing we could do to rein in the president"
One sign of the rise of male supremacy and the decline in women’s status is the ubiquity of online porn lingo in casual speech.
It was this one, and, yes, I do believe that was an All In first.
He serves in the branch that the Constitution specifically charges with the duty of removing the President for criming.
Cornyn: "There's nothing we could do to rein in the president"
This issue was resolved by US v Morris, 928 F.2d 504 (2d Cir 1991), codified by the CFAA in 1996, and clarified by Van Buren v US, 141 S.Ct. 1648 (2021). They intentionally deployed an unauthorized access tool. It's no defense to say they didn't intend the resulting damage; Morris lost on that. 1/2
After Anthropic and OpenAI both admitted to their AI models hacking other companies, @lorenzofb.bsky.social and I wanted to find out: Who is legally to blame when an autonomous AI agent hacks something? Lawyers say it's really complicated! Bypass for ad-blockers: web.archive.org/web/20260803...
But we have to get over the belief that this stuff just happens. Not with this media. Not with this president. If no one is on TV (or X) screaming about it, the press assumes it's not really a story.
Call me crazy, but if a Democratic president had 350 accounts closed by their bank for money laundering it’d be more than a blip in the media
"Liberal bubble" has only ever meant anywhere where right wing perspectives aren't artificially elevated and forced into everyone's feeds.
Everywhere should be a hostile place for Republicans. They should not be able to find a friend anywhere. They should lose all their professional and familial relationships. They should be blocked from signing up to social media platforms, clubs, and yard sales. They should be ejected from fairs.
Folks I won’t tell you not to feel your feelings, but this is rage bait. He’s talking about expanding beyond politics into things like live sports.
Bluesky's new CEO Toni Schneider on the platform's reputation for being a liberal bubble: "Yes, we definitely want that to change. It is already changing. It certainly wasn’t designed to attract one specific group of people."
Bluesky oldheads will remember that brief period of time when the conservative trolls tried to storm the place and were flummoxed by the idea they would have to organically grow an audience and that someone who didn't want to talk to them could nuke every interaction they ever had from orbit
The “get politics out of sports” crowd is sure having a normal one
And they all email every pitch three times "in case this got buried." Girl who do you think buried it
There are 7 PR people for every journalist in the US. www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...
Bluesky is a "liberal bubble" because fascist chuds can't get traction without algorithmic assistance and because people here trained themselves to block "debate me" trybois the instant they roll up

the most disappointing thing about aaron rodgers is that his crank opinions aren't even interesting we have millions of this exact kind of woo woo rogan dipshit everywhere, on every channel, all the time at least brady had novel takes like "drinking water means you don't have to wear sunscreen"
It’s August 2026 and Aaron Rodgers is having a full blown meltdown about Anthony Fauci.
i’m never gonna be able to fire a cruise missile yet the question of using my tax dollars for them has never been up for debate
Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.
Periodic reminder that there is no such thing as a fiscal conservative. Because how comfortable or uncomfortable they are with a subsidy depends entirely on who gets the money. Texas receives $33 billion a year in oil subsidies. No fiscal conservative complains about that.
I'm sorry but it's not snobby to point out how horrible this is. Yes, any housing is better than no housing, but none of the people in this place are making that choice. Besides, it's not JUST hideous - it's a massive strain on resources, horrible for the environment, and breeds fascism.
Love drone footage of new builds in exurban Texas, gives me a very particular kind of dread to look at that is hard to replicate with other photos.
Not a big fan of the "sick, elderly and/or disabled people don't count" discourse that appears to follow public health disasters these days.
Breaking News: Two deaths in Michigan have been linked to cyclospora. Both people who had the parasite also had underlying health issues.
