We're a split house, so this is a combo of 38.03 for IU kicking the crap out of Bama plus 74.72 for Nebraska beating Vandy to go to their first ever Sweet 16. Up is down, left is right. Protect Trans Kids. Forever.
benches, buses, and bathrooms. they should be everywhere
I'm in. I think it's a really good option. As a downtown worker, I am stoked to just take the streetcar to a game after work.
Democrats could run, in part, on a national, independent redistricting initiative that would eliminate gerrymandering. It would be aggressively opposed by Rs and give Dems the opportunity to use level playing field messaging they win on. Many people are saying it.
My most liberal idpol radlib take is that I think it's pretty bad that
right wing forces are actively intervening on behalf of the Klan with the full weight of the state legal apparatus
sucks that it’s come to this, but if congressional Republicans wanted to put up a national gerrymandering ban or multi member districts etc, it would pass *for sure*. until then fight fire with fire
I am once again saying that letting fascists back into society when they pretend to be repentant like this will lead to the rise of fascism again. They are upset because Trump has made them look like the fascists they are. This does not mean they are on the side of morality and human rights suddenly
this isn’t an argument for democrats, it’s just cope, republicans can and do seize these advantages all the time and they’re just shitting their pants because they put all their chips on a president who is shaping up to be the least popular of all time
It's notable that Sen. Ossoff is pressing this attack in a tight re-election fight in a purple state. The rest of the party needs to pay attention.
Gonna spend the next two years spamming every elected Dem about the concept of "damnatio memoriae." Chisel his name off every inscription. Build over the various Trump Towers like they're Nero's Golden House. Remove him from physical memory, not to forget but as a sign of disrespect to the man.
Poll: Is your baseball team good rn?
Like for no. Repost for no. Reply for no.
I am so glad I didn't spring for the Royals TV package.
This team is so bad.
Jamal is too nice to say "utter hypocrisy," but that's what this is.
Today's #SCOTUS treats *all* coercive relief against the executive branch as imposing irreparable harm on the government. For that proposition, they cite a 2014 opinion by ... Chief Justice Roberts.
Its absence here is deafening.
Assuming he survives the rest of his term, those that succeed him need to make it their goal to have he and his cronies disgorge every last dollar they took during his time in office.
A small cohort of ("prominent"?) law professors are trying to portray John Eastman as some kind of innocent victim of viewpoint discrimination, and his disbarment as some kind of assault on the First Amendment.
That's complete and utter bollocks. As usual, @gabrielmalor.bsky.social brings receipts:
yeah it is critical that dems win the senate
Yes, there is a reason why you should vote for progressives and people who actually want to help solve problems instead of the old guard dudes who just collect checks from wealthy donors. Direct your votes to the right people. Bend the Democratic Party in the direction that helps YOU the taxpayer.
It shocks me how many businesses still don’t seem to get that Trump’s cultural revolution did not actually happen
Attn: Democrats running for office! Coming out strong on AI regulations will only make me want to vote for you harder and tell all my friends to do the same.
The ultra-rich decided it was cheaper to buy Congress than support public goods because then they could also make Congress shoulder the blame for killing public goods. read the @raxkingisdead.bsky.social essay that scott is reacting to.
The most basic, clear, and easy-to-pass moral and ethical test is the one presented to journalists who are invited to the WHCD. Any journalist who attends that should be forever shunned and ignored. bsky.app/profile/jayr...
That makes me alternatively so sad and so mad.
seriously hope when dems get back in power they go after every single fuck involved with DOGE
The out of control Trump Hating, Washington, D.C. District Court Judge, who doesn’t want to accept a $400 Million Dollar GIFT of one of the most beautiful Ballrooms anywhere in the World, desperately needed by the White House and its future Presidents (Due to time constraints, I will barely get to use it!), wants me to build the “underground” portion of the Ballroom, without the “above ground” portion, but the underground doesn’t work, isn’t necessary, and would indeed be useless, without the above ground sections. The underground portion is wedded to, and serves, the upper portion, including the Bomb Shelters, a State of the Art Hospital and Medical Facilities, Protective Partitioning, Top Secret Military Installations, Structures, and Equipment, Protective Missile Resistant Steel, Columns, Roofs, and Beams, Drone Proof Ceilings and Roofs, Military Grade Venting, and Bullet, Ballistic, and Blast Proof Glass. It’s all tied together as one big, expensive, and very complex unit, which is vital for National Security and Military Operations of the United States of America! The Judge’s decision, which doesn’t even discuss the vital subject of STANDING, of which the plaintiff has none, severely jeopardizes the lives and welfare of the people who work, and will be working, at the White House — including all future Presidents of the United States, and their families. President DONALD J. TRUMP
This is a crazy person
Wow.
Me on the porch.
This is me on the porch tonight acknowledging that life sucks sometimes.
