there is no politician so irreplaceable that we must overlook sexual misconduct because nobody else could possibly fill their shoes

I’ll just be honest because I gasped when I saw this. This is what happened to me approx five years ago — and then he started sending flirty Insta messages, but I immediately backed off for a variety of reasons

There's always some dude who is like "Well, the right got Kavanaugh so why can't we have--"

BECAUSE WE DON'T WANT OUR OWN FUCKING KAVANAUGH, ZERO KAVANAUGHS IS ENOUGH KAVANAUGHS.

Can confirm I saw the messages.

(and I wanted to message Nancy pelosi to let her know what’s up in case she was unaware & so she could maybe lay the smack down)

I’m so sick of middling dramedy films getting a bunch of good reviews so I think I’m about to watch a good movie and instead I’m bored to tears.

Also they rarely touch on the comedy half and too many are middle aged white guy is going through normal life stuff and having a really hard time

Guys! It finally happened, I woke up and it was 1998!! I can stop it, I can fix the future

im just really fucking sick of spending my entire adult life lurching from one worldwide economic disaster to another all because people pretend republicans arent dumb as dog shit morons completely detached from reality

Americans love bragging they can't be stopped from doing something that no one is stopping them from doing.

I was forced to watch TV news when I had breakfast in a diner recently and I strongly resonated with the sentiment that being an intelligent person in America today is like being awake during a surgery.

It’d be cool if progressives didn’t point to fat people like “We can all agree this is a public policy failure…”

It begins…

Mamdani saying he called Trump to get Aghayeva released.

Aghayeva posting she has been released.

Aghayeva has been released.

Mamdani is truly a generational political talent.

MAMDANI: And I just think that there are barriers, barricades, to helping Americans that we can break down
TRUMP: Uh huh
MAMDANI: And breaking down barriers? Reminds me of a certain Broadway show *smiling widely* where they worked together to break a barricade?
TRUMP: *sitting bolt upright* Phantom

Clarence Thomas Just Struck Another Blow to Black Power In his majority ruling in a sleeper case about mail delivery, Thomas opened the door to a new way for Republicans to suppress the Black vote.

In an overlooked decision this week, the Supreme Court ruled that the post office can refuse to deliver your mail, which is KIND OF SIGNIFICANT if you choose to mail your ballot.
To do this work, the anti-democracy wing turned to their favorite “black friend,” Clarence Thomas.

If you have the means, please donate to the Trans Continental Pipeline right now. They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate and they are overwhelmed with requests. Colorado borders Kansas, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out.

Because of the National driver register, since their licenses are suspended, trans folks cannot move to another state and get a new license until they remove the suspension on their existing Kansas license.

They can't even escape this by moving to another state.

If 4,000 coal miners had to move we literally would never hear the end of it

the party that wants to require ID to vote abruptly invalidating a thousand people’s IDs overnight seems like a pretty giant flashing red light

I’ve been waiting for this one. Furious

y’all don’t need me to tell you this but this is plainly unconstitutional under any remotely rational reading of the constitution

😳 “it did cut a section from winner Akinola Davies Jr.’s acceptance speech. He closed his speech by shouting out “all those whose parents migrated to obtain a better life for their children,” as well as “Free Palestine.” The final moments of Davies’s speech were edited out of the time-delayed show”

I’m reading people saying trump does this value meal nonsense because he has to pay out of pocket for food for these types of events and that tracks. Correct me if I’m wrong

President hamburglar strikes again

I’m so living for the side by side photos when Flava Flav posts pics of him partying in Vegas with the women’s hockey team 😈

Bluesky was made for this

It's not only *like* that, it literally is that.

I’m not watching, but this is the point where Dems should have rightly stood up and left the chamber en masse.

Journalists: now is the time to ask Mike Johnson anything and everything! He was there. He saw it. He stood and applauded.

“The Somali pirates who ransacked Minnesota remind us that there are large parts of the world where bribery, corruption and lawlessness are the norm.” —Trump

Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib heckle Trump as he goes full fear-mongering white nationalist

And horsefeathers in Waukegan (once I could drive) was my jam 😆
