People are naysaying this but this seems like a huge deal. California's arguments FOR the merger are PLAINLY unreasonable. They can't justify it beyond "Gavin wants it." Really feels like Bonta was sending a message to the judge when he said he couldn't support it but was settling anyway!

I wasn't sure about the absolute necessity of Nithya defeating Karen Bass soon but after the Paramount merger bullshit and now this, California centrists need to eat shit and be utterly defeated

I think Libs have to get better about talking to Trump voters (like not citing studies...they don't care!) but I also believe this is partly the media's fault. We tell people all the time black plastic or whatever will kill them without explaining how science works! Why would they trust this stuff

"I don't think Trump would," Bovino said of the president. "I think if Trump knew what they had done and what they would do to Border Patrol agents or ICE officers or anyone that disagrees with them, I think he would have an absolute panic attack or a heart attack."

The one and only thing I will continue to enjoy about a Trump admin is his need to hire the worst people in the world then fire them in the most embarrassing way possible and also take huge dumps on them on the way out

This from Abbas Alawieh, on Jake Lang and connecting him to Mike Roger's and the Trump, is incredibly powerful, and not that hard for any self identifying Democrat.

One last Dolly Parton thought. Everyone thought Dolly and her work was FOR them. Men, women, folks in the country, queer people. And Dolly WAS for all of them. She loved us all. Her life reminds me of one of my favorite hymns: They'll Know We Are Christians by Our Love

What do you do when you've launched a moral panic about transgender athletes in the WNBA, but there has never been an active trans player in the league? Simple: you start a conspiracy theory about every single woman on the court.

This is a chilling development in this case. My friend @replamonica.bsky.social was just doing her job, conducting critical oversight, and fighting for her constituents. 

I’m proud to stand in support as she fights this attempt by the Trump admin to target their political opponents.

so I guess the sequence of events is: —complain about trans women in the WNBA —turns out there are no trans women in the WNBA —have a guy say "I'm a woman lmaoooooo 😉😜🤣 let me in the WNBA" —WNBA says "no, that's not how that works" —turn to camera and say "but you see this proves my point actually"

Can someone explain what they think is getting Americans to rally around this issue in particular? I'm having a hard time putting a finger on what this is all about. If it's environmental concerns, are they talking about water use? Are they worried their power bills are going up? Like what is it

The fundraising texts you delete are working on someone. It’s infuriating and heartbreaking. An 85yo in Ohio gave more than double the value of his home. A 91yo in an Indianapolis senior facility gave 25K times. The DCCC/DSCC don’t just tolerate the spammers who exploit seniors. They take part.
