@whatmadelinesays.bsky.social Mad props to you (pun intended) for making the effort to apologize to Hasan Piker, not because I was offended by anything you said previously but just because you cared enough to actually say you were sorry. I've never seen anyone in pundit land do that.

Don't forget to go see the Trump banner at the Department of Justice on Pennsylvania and 10th.

They believed that insurgent candidates like Platner threatened their chokehold on the party, so don't hand us this "I told you so" bullshit, because YOU DIDN'T KNOW any more than we did. Hypocrites. This rightwing chokehold on the Democratic Party must end.

Frankly, the Dem centrist/moderate crowd didn't know any more than we did that there was a ticking time bomb waiting to go off. All these issues they raised about Platner had nothing to do with the issues themselves. The centrists simply wanted to destroy a progressive campaign.

All the things brought up by the centrist Dem smear machine—the tattoo, the sexting, etc.—were things that either had reasonable explanations or were behaviors that were now in the past and being dealt with. It wasn't until we got to a credible rape accusation that we finally reached a red line.

I call BS on this "we told you so" hue and cry now going out in Democratic circles about the candidacy of Graham Platner. The centrist/moderate crowd is claiming that we should have known from the earlier red flags that popped up that he was a bad candidate, but this is disingenuous at best.

@melatkirosco.bsky.social: Congratulations on your big win, and may it and that of your fellow left progressives be the opening moves of a national movement that will sweep away the poisonous dregs of oligarchy so that working people can have a decent life for a change.

This doesn't fit the definition of violence for me. I'm totally okay with this.

Frankly, I think that this talk of armed uprising is a lazy way of dealing with a situation with deeply rooted rottenness that needs to be torn out by hard work and loud, nonviolent protest.

OMG, I really love Ann Telnaes. She is a great political cartoonist and walked away from Bezos Post and she is now independent. I think she hit another one out of the park.. What do ya all think? I really love this one.

Permanent, lasting, positive change demands long, hard, work. Taking out Trump or any other individual fascist won't stop the madness. It will just inflame it.

Frankly, the identity of the gunman doesn't matter. As a person on the left, I deplore this attempted act of violence and any and all acts like it. The VAST majority of us on the left feel the same way. To those few on the left who don't: stop all this nonsense about armed revolution.

I just wanted to put this out there. You all have no doubt heard about the incident at the White House Correspondents Dinner in DC last night. Of course, the right wing, as usual, is rushing to pin this on "the left" before anyone knows anything about the motives of the shooter.

Hmm, interesting. I had a feeling it might be something like that. This wouldn't make sense otherwise. Thanks for the response!

Incidentally, Minna had trained as a doctor at the University of Berlin just before she made aliya. Kind of an odd trajectory for a supposed Bundist from an obviously middle class family like hers. Any insights on how someone like this would have fit into Bundism?
000
Kevin Morrow @kevinmorrow.bsky.social · 16/04/2026
Incidentally, Minna did go to Egypt to spy, got arrested, sent to Russia, and then released in 1918 in a prisoner swap, then returned to Palestine and died there in 1925.

Kevin Morrow @kevinmorrow.bsky.social · 16/04/2026
Minna, on the other hand, was Bundist, and she had emigrated to Palestine from Eastern Europe before the war. I'm wondering if you know why Bundists would have been emigrating to Palestine if they were so dead set on blooming where they were planted.

Weizmann's older brother Chaim would later become Israel's first president, but during WWI, he was contributing his expertise as a chemist to the British war effort and then later near the end, he became the go-to guy for gathering Zionist forces in the West.

Kevin Morrow @kevinmorrow.bsky.social · 16/04/2026
I'm working on a book myself about the Middle East in WWI, particularly bout the German-Ottoman Turkish alliance. In 1915, the head of German espionage operations recruited a number of Jews living in Palestine to spy on the British in Egypt. Among them was Minna Weizmann.

@mollycrabapple.bsky.social: I've listening to the interviews you've been doing relating to your new book (which I will be getting soon), but the things you talked about raised a question in my mind, and I'm wondering if your book will address this . . .

Happy Confederate Surrender Day from Minnesota where we still have your goddamn flag and we’re not giving it up. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/28th_Vi...
The 28th Virginia battle flag is a Confederate battle flag that belonged to the 28th Virginia Infantry Regiment. Captured by the 1st Minnesota Infantry Regiment at the Battle of Gettysburg, the flag was brought to Minnesota and exhibited at the state's capitol for several years before passing into the permanent collection of the Minnesota Historical Society after 1896 where it has remained since.

True enough, but let's not make the perfect (abolishing them as an agency) the enemy of the good (diverting them to non-lethal duties) until we can muster enough strength in numbers in Congress to get rid of the ICE problem for good.

Frankly, I'm kind of glad that ICE agents have been taken off the streets. Better that they be standing around twiddling their thumbs in airports rather than brutalizing and killing people on the streets.
