John Fitzpatrick @fitz4cbd.bsky.social · 06/09/2026If a Dem wins the presidency in 2028, they should rename the White House Ballroom “The Ida B. Wells Memorial Ballroom.” And then put gold (leaf) plaques on the back of every chair to dedicate them to the memory of a great civil rights leader. That would cause a satisfying kerfuffle on the Right. 010
Reposted by John FitzpatrickMatt Ford @mford.bsky.social · 06/09/2026This has been clear for a few months now. Trump lacks the ability and credibility to agree to anything with Iran at this point, so it’ll have to fall to his successor. And if it’s a Dem, the right will pillory them for fixing what Trump broke. 32689135

Reposted by John FitzpatrickJustin Wolfers @justinwolfers.bsky.social · 09/05/2025There's a reason the White House didn't reveal the text of the "agreement" when making their big press splash announcing their agreement: It's a cup of tea without the bag. Congrats to the journos who breathlessly reported on a US-UK deal that isn't. You got played (again). 34843298
