I support Major Watson, an Air Force major arrested for speaking out against the president, facing court-martial for it. Not going to pretend this is simple. Civilian control of the military is a real constitutional safeguard. #GTS #Blues #Proudblue m.youtube.com/watch?v=jPwP...

This @bjpols.bsky.social paper on women's support for left-wing parties by @gdilandro.bsky.social just won the 2026 GESIS Klingemann Prize! Congratulations Gonzalo! So proud of you! 🎉

I am not usually this person, because y'all know I think the blue-shirts red-shirts view of politics is what got us here, but my god this man voted for Trump BECAUSE of his stance on immigration lol. He just thought it was going to be the brown & Black people, not his red-nailed lily white wife.
