Nobody of consequence. I block Trump supporters. I also block accounts with nearly no posts. If I know you and I block you please contact me elsewhere.

They're holding up a major escalation in Iran and a crackdown on abortion until after the midterms to limit political damage. To the extent that the last two years have been a right-wing smash-and-grab operation, the next two will be worse.

In middle school, I remember envying Frodo Baggins: he had ONE task, to get that damn ring to Mordor. No homework for even one class, much less six. He even had a gardener boyfriend along to feed him.

We desperately need a truth and reconciliation commission. It’s not simply about accountability, which may be stymied by Trump pardons. It’s about fully understanding and processing how far we fell as a nation, accepting that we put our faith in the wrong people, and knowing to never do it again.

Sure, the 2024 election was one too, but 2026 might be the clearest intelligence test ever presented to the American electorate. Taken at face value, he's saying he stole hundreds of billions from the gov't, hid it somewhere Congress can't reach, and he pinky swears he will give you a piece. Really.

Remember when Hitler excused his early invasions as ‘freeing the German speaking population’? This is Putin setting the groundwork for a wider European invasion. We either defeat him now in Ukraine, or tomorrow in Lithuania.

"This election is about the threat of trans kids" is the worst possible messaging for Dems yet so many candidates are leaning into it. No voter will flip R->D over it. Low-info voters read this as "you're focused on bullshit that doesn't affect me" while the base reads this as "you're an asshole."
