So much of the discourse around protecting our democracy amounts to "We need to trick the average American hog-person to vote for Good instead of Evil. How can we do that?" Really seems to call into question the value of universal suffrage itself!

this really is impeachable for any president, but really grotesque coming from a regime that cut life-saving development aid because they said it was not efficient

Former state candidate here. I tried to do that very thing and ended up being outspent by the online gambling and sports betting industry’s blue-washed SuperPAC by 2:1 in addition to my opponents’ spending. The SuperPAC, American Future, spent over $2 million in Maryland’s Democratic Primary.

Evergreen reminder that the online gambling and sports betting industry spent over $2 million via a SuperPAC in Maryland’s Democratic Primary to prop up Senate leadership and its allies.

Hey, ProPublica reporter Jake Pearson here. I’m taking over the account to tell you about my new story. For months, I posed as a problem gambler on DraftKings to test the company's "responsible gaming" safeguards. Spoiler alert: They made me a VIP — and I lost $10K. Here's how it all went down. 🧵

People who want to move somewhere to improve their lives (whether that be their career, escaping social conservatism, or both) is basically a force of nature. You cannot fight against it and it would be easier to just build more housing despite how difficult that can be.

There isn’t a federal sales tax. This would be damn near impossible to implement fairly due to variance on the state level. Some states don’t even have a sales tax.

Friendly Neighborhood Mouse @missmouse.bsky.social · 06/09/2026
Friday morning, I was gardening when I checked my phone. A request had gone out for help. For 25+ hours, ICE had been laying siege to a quiet neighborhood in Frederick, MD. Community members were afraid, some didn’t want to leave their homes. ICE vehicles seemed to be lurking on every corner.
ICE vehicle - black Nissan Maxima with plate cover - posted up in a spot that also serves as an elementary school bus stop. Another ICE vehicle, black Dodge Durango, lurking around the community. Two more ICE vehicles - black Dodge Durango and a white SUV, unclear on make, model - on a quiet residential street, being quietly creepy. Note that the white SUV has its plate covered. Yet another ICE vehicle. Black Nissan Pathfinder. They were all over the neighborhood.

Even if you take the argument that this was what critics were asking for (it’s not— we wanted them to explicitly endorse impeachment), the efforts didn’t amount to much in Blue Maryland where the primaries become de facto generals that decide many state-level races yet turnout was abysmal.

A lot of people thought No Kings was the goal. We wanted to save our Republic by stopping the dictatorial power grab of the orange fascist criminal. Now we find out that #NoKings was just a tactic. There is only one way to restore American freedom and democracy, impeachment and removal.
