I don’t understand why the NY Times let me rant against the Times on its own website. Healy seems like a sincere person, and I give him credit for making it happen. But the NY Times needs to stop pretending this is some brief detour in American politics when, in fact, a dictatorship is descending.

No joke. I think this is the most important video I have ever seen about mobile games. This guy breaks down how this game psychologically profiles you, and makes the game harder or easier in order to show you ads

I want to wake up on Nov 4th and hear @democrats.org leadership talking about accountability. Not unity, not moving on, not "this isn't the time." I want Miller, Hegseth, et al to lay awake at night sweating their reckoning. I want Trump to see everything with his name taken down. #VOTE

there is not enough outrage over what Trump has and continues to do to Minnesota and our representatives. state politicians were targeted and one was assassinated along with her husband. Ilhan was assaulted, has been harassed, and most recently raided in a desperate attempt to sway elections.

Trump's continued attacks on @repilhan.bsky.social the Somali American community, & our Muslim neighbors are a heinous attempt to distract from his complete & utter failure as president. Every American should be chilled to the bone: these are the actions of a dictatorship not a democracy.

Federal agents search Rep. Ilhan Omar’s D.C. home
 The search appears to be the type of action that law enforcement officials typically avoided so close to an election in the past.

I’m outraged by this attack on Representative Omar. Trump and his DOJ have a bizarre obsession with tearing down Minnesota, our leaders and our communities. This latest action, even as voting has already started in Minnesota, is a transparent attempt to interfere in our elections.

If the lessons Democrats (& democrats) draw from DOGE is “right idea, wrong implementation,” we are doomed. Everyone involved in the unprecedented crime that was DOGE needs to go to jail forever, & Democrats need to rebuild all of the programs & agencies first, not do digital management consulting 🤦‍♂️

Ossoff is hitting hard bc we are all furious and he knows it. The corporate press can elevate those loud, minority of voices praising what’s going on as much as they want, but most of us are angry and tired of being forced into living in pain.

@rbreich.bsky.social I appreciate how clearly and consistently you are in calling out Trump and the administration for corruption. Since you won't run, what Dems do you think are best poised for recovering after this. (you can DM me if you don't want to say publicly, haha)
