Wild that David Friggin' Jolly can figure out how to do this but @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social apparently cannot.
Allison Gill@muellershewrote.com · 3d agoDAVID JOLLY: “I reject socialism, I’m a capitalist, but I support Angie. She’s a fighter. She leaves it all on the field. She talk about what I talk about: affordable housing, can you feed your kids… Angie is out there fighting for the same values. We’ll see how the voters sort that out in November.

This is the precise reason why I am no longer a Democrat.

Today Hakeem Jeffries went on Sunday shows to attack progressives. At the same time, we are being gaslit that the establishment doesn’t even exist and that anyone who says so wants to divide Democrats. oh okay 👍

Adopt a shelter animal! ❤️🐾 These little cuties are looking for their forever homes at the Humane Society of Lincoln County in Ruidoso. Grateful to the good people (and their furry friends) for the tour yesterday and for their leadership in supporting the needs of our animals!
The 1972-74 Oakland As were a wonderful team. They had it all.
Jenny In Exile@jennyinexile.bsky.social · 7d agoI watched part of the "Field of Dreams" exhibition baseball game last night. The Twins and the Phillies played, but before the game, they brought out a bunch of Hall of Fame players. Rollie Fingers still rocks the best-ever 'stache in the game.
Two Black mayors took cities that the country loves to write off and made them measurably safer. That’s not a fluke. That’s a blueprint. Chicago and Baltimore just posted numbers that should be front-page news. They’re not. We need to talk about why. 🧵 www.theroot.com/opinion-blac...
This Albuquerque resident argues that public funds should be directed toward education, ensuring children have enough to eat, expanding access to healthcare, supporting working parents caring for sick family members, and helping families struggling to make ends meet despite having 2 working adults.
Not sure why Claire McCaskill decided that this is the point she needed to make but it reminds me how glad I am that she's not in party leadership anymore.

McCaskill insisted that despite their criticism, liberals would have been “glad” to see the same security maneuver used to protect a Democratic president.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2w agoTrump: "At one year, you should have 5 separate visits for vaccines rather than getting them all in the same day. I've seen proof of where they have a vaccination thing that looks like the size of a bottle of soda and pour it into a little child's body."
Another sickening chapter in the seemingly endless saga of Corporate America trying to fuck over the American public as thoroughly as it can. You and I are legally mandated to carry insurance but, apparently, insurance companies aren't held legally accountable for paying claims.
If You Get in a Car Crash, the Risk Is Growing Your Insurance Won’t Pay
Auto insurers didn’t pay out on 45% of auto liability and medical claims they resolved last year, according to a Wall Street Journal analysis.

A Senate candidate talking about the Powell memo???? Pinch me, am I dreaming????
Team Talarico@teamtalaricohq.bsky.social · 2w agoJames Talarico: 50 years ago, a corporate lawyer named Lewis Powell circulated a memo around DC — a blueprint for how corporations could amass political power, reverse the gains of the Great Society and the New Deal, and rig the system for themselves. And it worked.
“What happens when a government operates entirely in bad faith, never telling the truth about what it is doing or why? Inevitably, officials in such a government don’t merely lie to the public: they lie to each other too. As a result, they can’t govern effectively, even in the pursuit of evil.”
Lying Liars Lie to Each Other Too
A bad-faith government is also an incompetent government

The ethos of the GOP is "Whatever We Can Get Away With..."
capitolhunters@capitolhunters.bsky.social · 2w agoSeems bad? Sen. Boozman of Arkansas is now voting for Mitch McConnell, claiming that McConnell talked to him and gave him permission to cast his vote. The photo on the article here is old, from before McConnell's crisis. No one's seen him. No reporters talked to him. But people are using his vote.
