Hmmm wonder if that’s because there’s a massive right wing disinformation campaign to spread this bullshit

[hasanabi @hasanthehun]

a critical moment for us media. this is exactly what happened in turkey with erdogans initial rise to power. regime loyalists bought up all the private media outlets.

[Moe Davis (U.S. Air Force, Retired) @ColMoeDavis]

I’m not saying Graham Platner should or shouldn’t be a candidate for a Senate seat, but I am saying that the media’s treatment of Platner as compared to its treatment of Ken Paxton is the same as the media’s treatment of Joe Biden as compared to its treatment of Donald Trump. The media bolsters the MAGA narrative that there’s never a decent Democrat nor an indecent MAGA Republican.

[Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias]

Collins here underscoring the case for Platner, she can't give a simple "no way" to an obviously unsuitable Trump nominee — a guy who has zero qualification for the job other than his demonstrated willingness at FHFA to engage in abuses of power.

[Zaid Jilani @ZaidJilani]

Donald Trump literally has a whites-only refugee policy. If you're fleeing Syria, Venezuela, or Sudan, you're not considered a real refugee. If you own a McMansion in South Africa, you're a refugee.

Yes Jon Ossoff is correct. The Trumpy GOP is white nationalist.

[Lyndon Baines Johnson @lyndonbajohnson]

More seriously, if you're Talarico you ignore the attacks and keep it focused on Paxton being a crook. Make the case in as many venues as you can. I'd even go on Fox. Because Ken is never going to debate, and never going to an outlet outside the right wing media world.

[Joe @electionsjoe]

Yeah that statement from the article boggled my mind considering the post college grad unemployment rate. And that's not even looking into the amount of people with degrees/specialized skills that are working min wage jobs because they're not able to find jobs in their fields.

Being an American right now is just waking up and being told how much more money our president is stealing and having to go about our day like normal.

[Tim Miller @Timodc]

Obama expressed empathy for Trayvon Martin and @benshapiro had a decade long tantrum. Imagine if instead he had stolen $1.8 bil from taxpayers and had BLM dole it out to whoever they wanted. Because that's what Trump is doing but for insurrectionist whites instead.

[Jon Favreau @jonfavs]

Does this include the $1.766 billion you just stole from taxpayers or no?

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

The evidence is clear: Chief Justice John Roberts is a political actor who is leading the most partisan Supreme Court in American history.

[sp6r=underrated @sp6runderrated]

David is totally correct about this.

The GOP is openly trying to design the US government so that it has a permanent conservative tilt.

Democrats can't passively accept this unless they're willing to just give up on liberalism.

And if they are I have no use for the party.

[Patrick @pattyp___]

@BrettErickson28 @DeanBaker13 Especially suspect given they found the guy who bet on the Maduro capture in what, a few weeks? They know and they don’t care because it’s them.

[Patrick S. Tomlinson @stealthygeek]

And now we know why Trump fully pardoned Hernández after he'd been convicted of smuggling hundreds of tons of drugs into the US.

They're trying to Orban the entire hemisphere.

[scary lawyerguy @scarylawyerguy]

Once you've literally stolen an election in plain sight via an unsigned opinion you go out of your way to say has no precedential value and then *three* of the people who worked on that case now sit on the Court, stripping voting rights isn't a very heavy lift

[Micah Erfan @micah_erfan]

The Republican Party *just* packed the Supreme Court of Utah after it enforced the state's gerrymandering ban.

Never let Republicans lecture you about extremism.

[hasanabi @hasanthehun]

imagining a world where they cover the epstein affiliates with this much fervor!

[Joe @JoePostingg]

The Court is empowering itself to procedurely tap the breaks or gas on each new map, and shepherd maps toward their preferred outcome on a gas by case basis.

[Eric Michael Garcia @EricMGarcia]

AOC says Democrats should respond to SCOTUS weakening the VRA by doing their own redistricting until a national gerrymander ban passes

[Aaron Reichlin-Melnick @ReichlinMelnick]

We’re approaching 200 people killed without any investigation, trial, or sentence. And the deaths keep climbing, despite no independent indication whatsoever that the killings are having a significant impact on drug trafficking.
