Pass it on.
Is it a giant wooden horse
On this day in history, March 19, 2003, the Iraq war began.
Three or four of these despicable group chats have become public, but here's the thing: It's absolutely certain that there are HUNDREDS of group chats just like them that we'll never learn about. There's an entire generation of groyper Republicans, and in a few years they'll be running the party.
This sounds like an ad, but it's about murder.
FT comments section this morning - saying what everyone else is thinking, right?
Hey that’s about the cost of the SSI Restoration Act, which would cut recipient poverty by 60%, eliminate marriage penalties, and modernize draconian asset limits.
We have always been at war with Eastasia
That's because Canada is still going forward and we're going backward.
Rep. Summer Lee will deliver the Working Families Party response to the State of the Union! She's a powerful speaker. Check out her keynote at our conference. Go @summerlee.bsky.social! #SOTU
Getting shown up in the arena of elite impunity by *the British monarchy* is an incredible “America at 250!” achievement
All the college and university "leaders" who chose to surrender in advance on this, take a bow
And then get in the fuckin sea
2026 off to a solid start
Sigh. Free Don Lemon.
There needs to be an effort to monitor for cases where lawful, 1A protected speech gets punished through even small administrative actions like denying enrollment in Global Entry or TSA Pre-Check. We already know that they have publicly slandered peaceful protesters as "domestic terrorists"

Courage begets courage
Two democratic members of congress being assaulted reminds me of the time Sarah Huckabee Sanders was politely asked to leave a restaurant
Just a reminder that both Ilhan Omar and Maxwell Frost have been attacked this week.
No outrage by right-wing media or even corporate media.
Now imagine if this were done to Republicans.
The entire system is rigged in favor of conservatives, folks. The double standards are just wild.
Trump’s fundraisers are now using the threat of dispatching ICE against citizens as an email engagement tactic.
a lot of Democratic officials have asked the protesters to be careful to not "give Trump what he wants" and I think it's fair to ask them to do likewise
The reason I'm so deeply disappointed and frustrated with so many Dems members of Congress - especially leadership - is that they'll post that they're outraged, outraged! And then propose nothing, or worse, propose something so far below the threshold that meets the moment, that it reads as farce

"There is joy in connecting with strangers who love their community the way you do. There is solidarity in a city where every head is on the same swivel. There is hope in people running toward danger, if it means keeping neighbors safe. "
HOLY SHIT. Democrats now have a TWENTY-TWO POINT advantage on the general ballot. Dems had a 14-point advantage leading up to the 2018 election which netted us 41 seats in the House alone.
I can’t go to the grocery store alone right now because ICE is racially profiling and abducting people who aren’t white
