Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 03/10/2026This admin is going to end this country. They are setting up income streams with public money which will run indefinitely. The Dems have no intention of prosecuting anyone. We will be a big huge version of Russia within a generation. 001

Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 14/09/2026Lol I didn't say joy - I made the point very clear - but I so knew someone on here would respond like you did. 111
Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 14/09/2026One thing that's struck me with Mamdani. He says "Enjoy your city." That energy - both enjoy and your - is nowhere in the rest of politics. They talk about grim and minimal "delivering", at best. It's revealing. 1130
Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 14/09/2026There are interesting possibilities in the rage ppl have. I think the powerful are unprepared for what happens when institutions and individuals fail/betray on this scale, when impunity is so blatant, when ppl with power make clear as they have, that they are pretty much fine with this status quo. 060
Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 14/09/2026I think it will be worse and better. I think places like the Atlantic & the entire political press as we know it are done - there won't be another generation of those ppl - there's no 25 yo who will be the new Yglesias, Klein or Haberman. Dems and GOP survive or not together. 140
Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 05/09/2026speaks with the world’s deepest thinkers about matters of enduring human concern 030
Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 23/08/2026It's also fully in line with our entire adjucative process which rests on individualized determinations. 010
Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 23/08/2026It's time to face it. D electeds yelling about losing the Republic for the last 11 years was just a grubby GOTV scam. These ppl are not going to fix anything or hold anyone accountable. We need a Plan B. 011
Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 10/08/2026Oh the story is too good. These things actually happen in the UK which, I am convinced, is why they have such good comedy shows. 140
Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 10/08/2026They are just the best little beings. If you believe that they evolved partly in response to what ppl like it's sort of a hopeful statement about humans. 0140
Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 04/08/2026That sigh and the glib pose of victimhood. The more women who know to stay well clear of him the better. 021
Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 04/08/2026Bc he's a criminal intent on converting all assets owned by the public to his property 000
Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 03/08/2026The center-left failed and it's imperative that they don't hold the reins. Not taking them on is just laying the ground work for further destruction of the country. They can't be allowed to continue. 030
Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 30/07/2026I hate to tell them but the theater in this building looks like some sort of dormitory for very rich convalescents. 000
Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 30/07/2026My strongest sense memory of March and April 2020 is hearing ambulance sirens every 15 minutes. The quiet plus the sirens. 4174
Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 27/07/2026You're not following. The Reuters story said an "Islamist" was being sought. I'm not aware of an authoritative or even generally agreed definition of Islamist. Odd for a news outlet to use it and not explain what it means. Which is what Reuters did. The story you clipped is not Reuters. 100
Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 27/07/2026Lol. But that's not what it says in the Reuters article. So sort of off topic as to the use of the term by Reuters. 100
Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 26/07/2026But the entire gop voter fraud thing is a lie. Paxton hasn't spent years trying to eliminate it. He's spent years lying about non existent voter fraud so that elections are always in doubt and in service of voter suppression. 010
Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 26/07/2026WTH Reuters? "Police identify Islamist"??? Define Islamist please. Oh your reporting actually says a Berlin police spokesperson said the suspect is "part of the Islamist scene" in Berlin. Whatever the hell that means. 330
Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 25/07/2026I agree. Just noting bc I liked this - he did, once, admit he has almost no good traits. Lol. “I’m not a drinker.

Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 24/07/2026They didn't believe him. They calculated it was in their interest. That's why they're saying "we got fooled and shucks we feel just awful.' They know it's not credible. It's their story and they're sticking to it bc they think it's enough to minimize harm to their job prospects and/or legacies. 010
Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 22/07/2026The tough part is that everything you said applies to Biden and crew as well. In a relatively short time, that will be acknowledged by Dems. 000

Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 12/07/2026He tried to get GA votes -- only certain counties -- *thrown out*. He is on audio pushing for that. He should have gone to jail! 000
Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 12/07/2026How many obits will mention the *audio* of him pressuring GA to throw out votes? 000
Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 12/07/2026Pushed for multiple wars that badly damaged the US and the one we're currently trapped in, which has done irreparable harm. 010

Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 10/07/2026"Absolutely fantastic at being aristocrats. Like they were born to it!" 000
Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 06/07/2026Ultimately I don't think it matters. It does for the seat count but for the larger argument. That's over. Mainstream Dems have shown the only thing they will fight is "leftists" (as if we have those in the US lol). Neera can keep up her schtick but the parade has gone by. The realignment is here. 010
Elissa @elissa4.bsky.social · 06/07/2026"vote vote vote" but they are quietly dying and somehow refusing to step down 030
