We are BARELY a two party system. Our party system sucks, it's the worst

The only thing that can fix this is institutional reforms that mimic proportional representation & turn us into a multiparty democracy. And they need to be ready to go starting in January 2029:

🆘DON’T KILL 🐶COOPER

1 y/o Cooper is the superstar of doggy playgroup. See his video.

ACC admits he’s friendly and super social; they’re going to kill him for his puppy ways. He IS a puppy.

He entered ACC w/exuberance and despite being caged, has managed to stay joyful.

The Washington Post is strictly a Bezos-oriented propaganda machine now, nothing more as you can see from the headlines!

They think you're stupid.

Several family members, varying widely on the political spectrum have turned anti-Israel. I think a sign of a US realignment to come.

Not content with starving military personnel, Hegseth would also like to make them get sick. His commitment to lethality is unequaled.

Happy 89th Birthday George Takei!

George Takei, born on April 20, 1937, in Los Angeles, California, is an actor, activist, and social media phenomenon who has lived one of the most remarkable lives in American entertainment.

As a child, Takei and his family were forcibly relocated to Japanese...

In Virginia?

Vote YES on Tuesday.

Um... a good number of Democrats also voted to confirm trump's misfit toys, Hakeem.

this is just one example of the VIP facilities at hospitals where congressional republicans, their wealthy donors, and their families benefit from first-class healthcare — while they vote to cut ours.

Chris Murphy: “This is the most incompetent, incoherent war America has fought in the last 100 years — this administration has no idea what they are doing

I have great sympathy for our soldiers & our military leaders — they are being given directions by a senile old man who is losing his mind”

Just think, the 25th Amendment can save us from a 250 foot arch. Seems like a deal!

In the same manifesto, Palantir's owners argued that we need a national military draft, that soft power is over, and that we were too hard on Germany and Japan after World War II. I don't think that company should be allowed to exist anymore.

“Too hard” on Nazi Germany is a …. Very hot take to say the least!!

Palantir Posts Very Long X Post Denouncing ‘Vacant and Hollow Pluralism’ Best case scenario: maybe Palantir is super psyched about abundant and solid pluralism.

Palantir should not be allowed to have any government contracts at any level because it is fundamentally opposed to the basic concepts of liberal democracy.

I don't think I've ever read a sentence as unappealing as "Jim Caviezel is Jair Bolsonaro."

do not forget that we the people have the power to chart a different path than this

Sarah Longwell: We are committing superpower suicide in real time. Trump is making China Great Again. Poll: People in *every single one* of the top US-allied countries now believe it’s better to depend on China than on the US. The global balance of power is clearly tilting away from the US and toward China.

A new world

Concur.

It has always been a performative act to gain earthly money and power.

for that day will not come unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, who opposes & who exalts himself over every so-called god or object of worship, so that he sits down in the temple of God, proclaiming that he himself is God.
2 Thessalonians

Things go better if they can keep him out of the room.

This is true for so many infections... viral #hepatitis is a case in point - for #HCV we have fantastic, safe and curative medicines, & for #HBV a robust preventive vaccine & effective suppressive antiviral medication. We need more innovation, but education, implementation & advocacy are key. 🧪

RFK Jr.’s No-Good-But-Maybe-Not-That-Bad Week The CDC is in line to get a normie director—but it will still be tough to escape Kennedy and his anti-vaccine crusade.

RFK Jr.’s No-Good-But-Maybe-Not-That-Bad Week open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa... -- he is the one of the most dangerous men in America with his insane anti-vaccine stances. Hurting children and adults alike!

Among the many should-immediately-end-this-presidency daily scandals is the fact that the current administration is dismantling research on the most incredible new scientific advance in the last several decades. Literally killing people.

@teamlabouruk.bsky.social You allowed the Daily Mail to publish articles like this. When Covid actually is officially airborne, many have restricted access to vaccines and therapeutics and suffered online abuse.

In just over a week, Donald Trump has threatened to wipe out Iranian civilization, picked a fight with the Pope, and posted an image of himself healing the sick as Jesus Christ.

Now, former allies have turned on him and claim the president has gone insane. ⬇️

If this actually happens, it may rank as the single most corrupt act in the history of American politics. I cannot believe this is even under discussion.

the president of the united states is personally looting the treasury to the tune of literally billions of dollars and that he is not being immediately removed from office and tried for high crimes against this country is a devastating indictment of every part of our political system
