Hurling F-bombs at an 85-year-old scientist who won’t fight back doesn’t make you tough. Staying silent after your own daughter accused Rep. Max Miller of holding a gun to her head, pushing her against a wall, and fracturing your granddaughter’s collarbone makes you a coward.
If we actually had an administration that gave a damn about free speech or ‘viewpoint diversity’, or an opposition party or a media that did, this would be a huge story. Canceling a speaker because of vague concerns about unidentified posts about Israel. That’s all it took.

Big Oil is using the Iran War to rip off Americans at the gas pump.
Let’s end the Iran War & pass a windfall profits tax-NOW.
SCOTUS decided, to inject itself into an ongoing election & at this point no one can say otherwise.
It has historically used the Purcell doctrine to ensure that courts aren't meddling in elections, and yet this court felt comfort in doing so.
Everyone needs to understand this.
How is this being treated as normal?
A Republican governor is declaring a state of emergency to cancel an ongoing election for Congress. If you think this is ends with redistricting, you are not paying attention.
Gaza is for sure part of it, but this is a big reason the DNC won’t release their 2024 autopsy. The Harris campaign took a billion dollars from us to defeat fascism, and then used it for shit like this. The consultants who made bank off that failure don’t want you to know.
People like DNC Chair @KenMartin73 are why people despise political operatives so much.
He spent years condemning the DNC for not releasing its "autopsies" after election losses. He explicitly vowed he'd do so if he became DNC Chair.
Now that he's Chair, he's hiding the 2024 autopsy and, when asked why, he just refuses to admit he's doing exactly what he vowed never to do. Instead he offers smug clichés designed to evade the question. Repulsive.
We could metaphorically say that in the era of the “digital triumph,” political action that is truly oriented to the common good requires a return to the “analogue.” Perhaps this is the real antidote to a politics that often shouts, consists only of slogans and is incapable of responding to people’s actual needs.
In a very MAGA part of north Texas, this homeschool sports league hired a known child sex offender and this was the waiver they tried to get parents to sign acknowledging this. You’ve really got to read this
The fact that the majority of Americans preferred republicans on the economy for so long has got to be one of the most successful propaganda campaigns in modern history because every time a republican gets in office they ruin the economy and everybody is worse off.
