Keep the phones out people. I don't even know if a positive outcome in the midterms can stop this shit but they clearly learned from Bovino's style and are pivoting without a practical difference. Video is the only balm right now.

Good. I'm surprised it wasn't made of wet cardboard. Wet, Russian cardboard.

It would be great to see you show your appreciation to us state workers by not stripping us of telework benefits and by instructing your bargaining team to show us the appreciation we deserve by helping you meet this metric

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 02/07/2026

...with the help of California state workers, who you are AGGRESSIVELY fighting AGAINST getting any increase in wages while also ending telework #unions @seiu1000.bsky.social #progressive #progressives #democrats #voteblue #bluewave #blacklivesmatter #leftist #democraticsocialist #feelthebern

I'm all for preserving history but seriously why are they not destroying these statues after they take them down??!? Surely we have a painting or some shit of this guy for historical record. Melt these bitches down.

@briantylercohen.bsky.social We really need a pro-worker candidate after almost a decade of the middle class taking hits. We need someone who will stand up against AI and for a populace that has been pummeled and remained so strong in the face of fascism. We need help.

@briantylercohen.bsky.social Hey Brian, I am a longtime subscriber and fan. I'm also a state employee in California and I notice you interview Gavin Newsom quite a bit. I am humbly asking you to push him on some of his anti-worker and anti-union policies, especially telework. 🙏

I will obviously still be voting for Democrats but...damn. This hit me hard. Why waste all this time and cause so much pain without knowing damn well u had the support? @schumer.senate.gov - I'll be supporting Independent liberals from now on

@adamschiff.com @schumer.senate.gov Hopefully when my 3 year old is an adult, she will at least get to see a Democratic Party with some spine. So far, she hasn't.

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 10/11/2025

@democrats.senate.gov uhhh... wtf are you guys doing? U do realize if u give up now, right after the election, ur basically handling the GOP their own talking point, that this was purely political, which means Dems will incur the wrath of ppl hurt by the shutdown, right?

010

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 06/11/2025

Voters showed up for you all last night. Don't let us down. Keep fighting. Hold the line. @bera.house.gov as someone who lives in your district, I implore you to stand by the position you took last week at your town hall.

000

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 06/11/2025

You will be confirming all of those (I believe) unfair impressions of Democrats. Don't squander the energy last night triggered by caving and thus proving GOP right that this was all a political performance, you'll be playing right into their hands.

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 06/11/2025

@bera.house.gov @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social If you really want to know why the Dems lost to Trump again, it's because Dems are widely regarded as being 'fake'. Yall have done a lot to start chipping away at that impression but I gotta say, if you guys cave on ACA subsidies...

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 06/11/2025

@bera.house.gov Was at your town hall call last week and was very glad to hear your commitment to seeing thru the shutdown until GOP caves on the ACA. Voters did their part last night now we need u guys to keep doing your part. Prove this shutdown wasn't a performance! No caving!

I know you guys have a vetting process you need to go through as actual journalists but the stuff that would normally outrage people is happening NOW and is imo not getting any visibility while it CONTINUES

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com Can you explain to me why MSNBC, one of the last vestiges of truth on cable news is not showing more of these ICE arrest videos from Chicago? I just watched a child... a CHILD... tackled to the ground by an ICE agent after they nearly drove into him

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 24/10/2025

Nothing apparently though I actually think he likes the idea of building a gigantic thing right next to the White House to show that it's bigger by comparison. But ya... give him his third term and I bet he'll just build a palace made out of asphalt or something stupid out of sheer boredom

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 05/10/2025

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social If you and the Republicans are to go back to the table, please shift focus from healthcare to imposing new restrictions on these ICE raids. The videos we are seeing are CLEARLY illegal behavior by law enforcement but at bare minimum, ICE should be defunded

000

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 05/10/2025

@bera.house.gov Rep. Bera, after what we are seeing from these raids by ICE, as one of your constituents living in Fair Oaks, I am BEGGING you to please change tact right now and urge leader Jeffries to instead shift focus on reopening the gov't to defunding ICE or passing some kind of LE reform

Hey #AmQuerying and looking for agents looking for New Weird speculative/literary SFF who might take a chance on a query from a debut author. I know… Im either a masochist or I just like a good challenge!

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 02/06/2025

California citizens: please support state public servants. Gov. Newsom is following the DOGE playbook, imposing RTO mandates and cutting state worker pay. This is anti-union and anti-democratic. Please let him know our party and our state won't stand for this: www.gov.ca.gov/contact/

You can contact the Governor a few different ways. The best way is through his online form.

Interesting the author mentions thumos… wasnt there a parable about the two horses, one thumos and the other reason and that we as the rider had to balance both to effectively pull the chariot? Rage is easy to conjure but pretty useless as a governing strategy. Imbalance is toxicity.

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 26/04/2025

Oh god… as a public servant I know full well that even on a good day, govt HR errors can be… something more than just tricky… what the fed workers have been dealing w is like psychological torture. When these utter incompetents are voted out of office, I hope an effort is taken to make them whole

@vanhollen.senate.gov while our country put him in this situation to begin with and thus, ‘proud’ is not the right word, for the first time in a long time i actually felt a pang of patriotism seeing that picture today. Thank you for that.

So counterintuitive but true, that even science and medicine despite objectivism still require a leap of faith. In this case tho, its faith in humanity, history, truth and that in all the chaos there is an underlying order; it is beautiful, it is real and it is measurable.
