I propose a new debate format: candidates are wired up and shocked with increasing voltage each time every time: - the real time fact checkers find a lie - they deflect, change the subject, or refuse to answer the question - a candidate interrupts or talks over another candidate's answer

The right's propaganda machine is working hard to demonize candidates like @katmabu.bsky.social and @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social, but they represent the idea that America still has the potential to be a place that takes care of our neighbors and fights for those ideals on which we were founded.

"He's Guilty" of what?! Does Donald just not understand how the law works? Is that why he ignores it wherever it's convenient? He can't even come up with a coherent distraction from his increasingly obvious involvement in Epstein's child rape Ring.

My millennial ass is old enough to remember what a circus the Monica Lewinsky scandal was. The president cheated on his wife and that was enough to get him thrown out of office. If only the Dems had a tenth of that zeal and pursued justice for any one of Trump's many impeachable offenses.

The problem presented so clearly: Grok presenting demonstrably true facts and it being labeled "woke cuck libtard". These people cling to their fantasy world so hard, not even the most obvious truths will shake them loose.

NASA is more than rockets and moonwalks. NASA is behind much of our everyday technology. From space discovery, to Air Jordans, to CAT scans, NASA has played a role. We get it all on less than a penny of every federal dollar. Now their science may be gutted by 50%. #NASADidThat

The change in grok happened so fast I wouldn't be surprised if they just hired some Nazi to reply to messages as grok. It's a typical Musk move, like that time he showed off his robot which was just some guy dancing in a robot suit.

This speech has never felt more appropriate. We will not allow fascism to annihilate the American experiment. We will not go quietly into the night. We're going to fight on. As MLK, one of the best Americans we've had, said "the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice".

His problem is that they removed the tax credits for EVs, so he's mad that it doesn't make him ENOUGH money.
Elon Musk tweet that says: "It is obvious with the insane spending of this bill, which increases the debt ceiling by a record FIVE TRILLION DOLLARS that we live in a one party country - the PORKY PIG PARTY!!"

Not only is ICE committing crimes at a record pace but they're also about to go broke.

ICE could run out of money next month and is already $1bn over budget
The Department of Homeland Security has requested an extra $2 billion to meet its needs by the end of September
