Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

Oh MG, the day one says “quiet piggy” back to him! Sure you’ll get fired but people would donate millions to that go-fund-me

"I imagine one of the reasons people cling to their hates so stubbornly is because they sense, once hate is gone, they will be forced to deal with pain." This James Baldwin quote is hitting harder than ever.

If the Supreme Court okays third terms, Obama should hold his 2028 Election Night Landslide Victory rally not in Grant Park, but right on the Ellipse, just south of the Epstein Ballroom and Catering Venue.

The new editorial board is abysmal. They’re just begging subscribers to cancel.

8?? They’ve been talking about a republican replacement for the ACA since it passed…in 2010!

JFC these people have no shame

THIS is truth. #DeportTheAssholes

Do these “agents” have ANY training?

I borrowed the best seller #LuckyLoser from the Alexandria city library but didn’t get a chance to get into it. But when I tried to renew or re-enter a hold request, the title was suddenly not in the catalog. Did someone make them pull it from their shelves?

If by Reichstag they mean a fake emergency used to initiate crack down, they may be right. But what a Freudian slip!

I’ve seen enough.

Impeach Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

“Alternative facts”

After a half century on this planet I’ve come to realize that’s the kids are right, we’re right, have always been right. About Vietnam, about Wall Street, about Bernie, about Gaza. Maybe instead of demanding they join us in the moderate seats we should let them drive the bus?

Decades of US diplomatic efforts being unwound.

Yes girl. 😣 I’m from Louisiana and they *still* have prisoners working in the capital cafeteria and governors mansion. It’s downright plantation and utterly shameful.

What do you think phase 2 of alligator Alcatraz will entail? Cheap labor rented out to local farmers. And everyone will just nod along as black and brown people get conscripted into indefinite servitude.

Literally the hero we need

The Mothership Vortex: An Investigation Into the Firm at the Heart of the Democratic Spam Machine How a single consulting firm extracted $282 million from a network of spam PACs while delivering just $11 million to actual campaigns.

I couldn’t read anything after learning that less than 2% of $$ raised by these former DCCC staff-turned-fundraising consultant & PAC founders actually goes to candidates. @democrats.org need to stop this now before it kills the party.

Being anti-Netanyahu, anti-settler, anti-IDF, anti-Gaza genocide =/= antisemitic.

Catherine, why is collective action so hard? Surely they see that he’s not gonna stop with any deal they make. The blackmailer’s play is to keep coming back. And Trump has admitted he sees contracts as starting points rather than binding.

Did the Nat’s win or something?

Right? Was it fireworks? @alxnow.bsky.social

Apparently I’ve been mispronouncing “mien” my whole life. #nytconnections
