This is crazy and criminal. Senator John Hickenlooper has a slam dunk reelection in 2026, yet his campaign feels the need to scam Talarico donors?!? Hick's digital agency built an ActBlue page to look like Talarico's to game SEO and AI search, but his campaign takes 100% of the contributions!!!

Just 2 cycles ago, Wisconsin Republicans had a better shot at a supermajority in the legislature than Democrats had at a simple majority. This Nov, we have a real shot to flip both chambers. Let's gooo!

50,000 followers is cool. 500 organized voters who actually show up on Election Day is... cooler. I spend a ton of time on TikTok talking about politics and elections in Wisconsin. The goal isn't to get famous — it's to organize people. To move them from "I'm scrolling" to "I'm voting." >>>

PSA: Reddit AMA's can be so valuable for some political campaigns. And absolute disasters for others. The hard part isn't running one. It's knowing whether or not you should.

One reason I hate death penalty cases is that capital punishment is incredibly stupid and irrational. It's cruel, expensive, and serves no deterrent effect. It's rarely imposed, except against a tiny minority of unlucky defendants—and in those cases, racism almost always plays a role. Just end it.

Good content matters. No question. But if there's no conviction behind it, the best content in the world falls flat. Every time. You can play a fighter on the internet. But if you cave on every vote, people notice.

Dear god. Very, very serious allegations of mass civil rights violations at the State of Florida's Everglades immigration detention center (officially known as "Alligator Alcatraz").

Attorneys representing immigrants held at the “Alligator Alcatraz” detention site alleged Friday in federal court that guards beat and pepper-sprayed detainees after a protest over lost phone access — allegations they argue show state and federal officials defying a recent court order protecting detainees’ civil rights. In a court filing in Fort Myers, lawyers with the American Civil Liberties Union Foundation and civil rights groups said officers at the controversial Everglades facility entered a unit earlier this month and physically assaulted detainees. One man was thrown to the ground and “severely beat,” according to his attorney, who submitted photographs to the court showing her client with a black eye. The attorney, Katie Blankenship of the legal-services organization Sanctuary of the South, wrote in a sworn declaration that officers broke another detainee’s wrist and “pepper sprayed everyone in the cage.” The violence, the attorneys say, erupted after site employees abruptly cut off detainees’ access to phones on April 2 — eliminating what they described as their clients’ only connection to legal counsel and their families. The day-long prohibition came less than a week after Middle District Judge Sheri Polster Chappell issued an order expanding Alligator Alcatraz detainees’ access to their lawyers and their ability to use phones at the remote pop-up facility.

RESULT: The right took over the Francis Howell school board, a large MO district in the St. Louis suburbs, earlier this decade; followed book bans & restrictive policies on LGBTQ students. Tonight, the slate endorsed by the teacher's slate swept, and the last remaining conservative was ousted.

Funny thing about American mass media is how woke content is broadly popular, routinely pays for itself, and sometimes goes blockbuster, whereas right-wing content is a narrow niche that rarely reaches breakeven, never goes blockbuster, and usually requires immense subsidies for it to exist at all.
