The most important political task in America is clawing back wealth from the very rich. The most important ballot measure in America is the California billionaire tax. Oligarchy is at the front door. Time to stop fucking around. www.hamiltonnolan.com/p/the-war-ag...

Pretty clear to me there’s a very good case against this man for mass murder, and I’m saying that in as measured a fashion as I can. He’s order the killing of 234 people under no plausible war or legal justification. I am skeptical he will ever face legal accountability for til his but he should.

BREAKING: Israel snatched an American teen from his West Bank home in the middle of the night — just days before his birthday and during his critical national exams. He's now been held for 3 months, with no charges. Netanyahu just came to the US for the *eighth* time since Trump took office.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: I think we can bully Elon enough that he saves us from the Elon problem himself. Getting this movie seen by as many people as possible is a big step towards a Muskless future.

The lifecycle of a Conservative monster is fascinating. You prop up one disgusting idiot to put forth your horrible policies. Then, once the public hates him enough, you shed him like an old skin. All in time to prop up the next one. America keeps getting worse, and you keep thriving.

Clinton & Obama's cozying up to W since 2016 has been ugly & deeply shameful. He's been totally absent in the authoritarian moment, & now he's actively stumping for it. Again, all the awful stuff keeps happening bc we never do elite accountability & haven't since at least Iran-Contra, if not 1865.

when the republicans are weak, the establishment dems will weaken themselves also so as to not win by too much. if they had future sight and knew which policies would result in a resounding victory and which would result in a nailbiter, they'd pick the nailbiter policies every time

Her family also raised a shit ton of money to create America First Legal to sue others. Her husband has helped weaponize the DOJ to sue others. Using the legal system to intimidate and threaten people or force them to adopt MAGA views is a core tactic of these people.

The key to getting low-information voters to vote for Democrats or just to sit out elections is to do everything possible to brand Republicans and especially Trump as stupid losers that are embarrassing to associate with. Make them the NY Jets fans of politics.
