When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. Guitarist, damaged skateboarder, Saints and Pels fan.

The Saints will finally return to the playoffs next year I'm calling it now

[hottiepants @punishedpants]

the fact that centrists continue even now to attack el sayed for things like "not having a high enough margin of victory" instead of begging hat in hand for forgiveness that they were foaming at the mouth to send a republican to senate instead should tell you a lot

Scott Colom calls out Chuck Schumer for taking credit for his win

"It's not accurate to say he recruited me. The people of Mississippi recruited me. You think I would listen to somebody who lives in Brooklyn?"

[Ian @HomesickWhoDat]

This is like giving all the credit for a Super Bowl win to the team owner.

[Igor Bobic @igorbobic]

Fetterman says he doesn’t know “why there's a conversation other than Schumer as the leader” after Dems won big.

“And what is Van Hollen's record, other than yelling about a lot of anti-Israel stuff and embracing and visiting the wife-beating guy?”

[Ian @HomesickWhoDat]

@TheFrugalBanker Yes.

[Rory Blank @BoneJail]

I think Jensen Huang having time to fuck around on his wife is ultimate proof that CEO is a bullshit job and CEOs don’t really do anything. I work a pretty normal 40 hour a week and can’t imagine having the time for an affair.

[MaceAhWindu @MaceAhWindu]

Van hollen spent the last like week talking to democratic senators he would not have launched a bid for the leadership if he didn’t have at least 26 of these guys ready to vote for him

Jameis Winston with the funniest snap count in NFL history 😂😂😂

whispering: guys... i think this is going to fucking work...

PSAKI: How many other private pledges of support do you have?

VAN HOLLEN: We have a lot of people.

PSAKI: More than 10?

VAN HOLLEN: More. We have a lot of people.

@GerritD And it's not even their fault we desperately need a way to teach media literacy in this country.

@mattyglesias @Brendan47339896 @_ericblanc Populist rhetoric isnt simply bold promises or running on affordability.

You pair that message with an enemy (in this case billionaires), explicitly and frequently place blame on them. Dems did the 2nd part this year and thats the difference.

[Ian @HomesickWhoDat]

@mattyglesias @Brendan47339896 @_ericblanc Wow Yglesias doesnt actually know what populism is. Explains a lot really

[. @Omgemeraldddd]

how fucking stupid is it that we have all these supposed billionaire geniuses running around and their greatest innovation of our lifetime has been stealing all our data to sell us Ads.

[Ian @HomesickWhoDat]

Bye

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

I welcome any discussion about the future of our caucus and the important work ahead. I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished together—55 seats and counting is an amazing result—and I have the votes to continue serving as Democratic Leader.

I look forward to leading our new Democratic majority and delivering for the American people.

[Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen]

In this election, Americans called on us to unrig an economy rigged against working people & fueled by political corruption.

To deliver, we need new leadership. This isn't about any one person – it’s about answering that call.

That's why I’m running for Senate Majority Leader.

Don't EVER stop saying Haley Stevens Democrats

[Tom Ruby @bgcts]

I've been saying since I arrived on Twitter that future historians will look back in several hundred years and look at the 80 years between 1950 and 2030 and try to figure out what the heck happened. From expecting to work for a few decades and get paid the rest of your life to dispersing to large lot homes and growing big lawns to poisoning ourselves to actively killing our people to worshipping people we don't know to the list goes on. A wild 80 years.

If the Pelicans front office doesn’t send Dejounte home or trade him immediately, they’re forfeiting the season with 70 games left…

[Isaac Saul @Ike_Saul]

TMZ reporter Charlie Cotton saw Rep. Jonathan Jackson on the Capitol steps recording a social media video about Hegseth’s impeachment while the vote he missed was happening, which is an incident that sums up this moment in history better than anything I could write.

[Reggie B. @reggiebblue]

Abdul El-Sayed absolutely destroys Donald Trump.

Q: You recently called President Trump the dumbest effing guy who ever was president.

AES: True.

Q: You've also said Democrats should drop the decorum and treat the president as the unserious fool that he is.

AES: True.

Q: Why are you taking that approach?

AES: Because he's a bully alongside being a narcissist. And the only way you deal with bullies is to stand up to them. Bullies don't bully you because they necessarily care for the thing you have. They bully you because they like to bully you because it makes them feel strong. And the way you take on a bully is to bully back. Because then they learn that this does not make them feel strong. It makes them feel weak and they don't like to feel weak. So they back off. And the more you let a bully get away with bullying, the more they signal to everybody else that this person cannot be stood up to. And so I think it's important for us to stand up to him.
