They caved *because* of Tuesday’s election results. The ultra-rich control the leadership of both parties. These 8 senators are political class boomers who faithfully serve their pocketbooks and billionaire friends. This fight is the top 1% vs. the bottom 99%, not left vs. right.

In Dallas there is 1 religious institution per 900 people, which works out to being about 1,475 churches. The latest estimate is that there are 3,541 homeless individuals in Dallas. We just need each religious organization to adopt 3 people in need of food and shelter. We must do better. #momsky

After my ex left, I needed help paying rent and called Gateway church, but benevolence was only for members. I’d have to attend a class to become one so I did it. I also had to meet with their “care pastor”. I left that meeting feeling lower than dirt. Truth 👇🏻 www.tiktok.com/t/ZTMtV4v7o/

I’m so proud of my state and our leaders. New Mexico is the first state to offer free child care and Albuquerque has free bus service. These are two issues that mayor elect Mamdani is considering. Imagine, a small blue state, setting standards for all. 😊 Thank you @govmlg.bsky.social

The entire right-wing propaganda machine came after Zohran Mamdani. The president and his allies came after him. Democratic leaders, by and large, did not have his back until the last minute. He still won, turning out historic numbers and inspiring young voters. His politics can win anywhere.

Hot take: Maybe Egypt used to be a bunch of mountains and the Egyptians hacked away at them to form the pyramids and that’s where all the sand came from. It’s all just construction dust.

During my divorce, I earned just barely enough to not qualify for SNAP. My card declined at the register as I was trying to buy the lactose free formula at Whole Foods that my twins needed. The cashier had compassion and gave me a tub. My ego was bruised but I accepted it because my kids needed it.

If you want or need SNAP benefits, literally the only barrier should be...signing up. "But what about fraud?" My sibling in red, white, and blue, THE PENTAGON HASN'T PASSED AN AUDIT IN YEARS AND MONEY IS FAKE. I don't care if too many people have food assistance.

Forcing people to worth without pay is slavery. White Christians so quickly forget the scriptures. “Don’t take advantage of a hired worker… whether that worker is a fellow Israelite or a foreigner... Pay them their wages each day before sunset...because they are counting on it.” Deuteronomy 24

Solutions are plentiful. If only we had the courage to act. What’s always been done can change. What once was doesn’t always have to be. We have the power. Anyone who says we don’t is just afraid. Borders are invisible lines. Numbers are ideas. Laws are made up rules that our ancestors wrote.

While neither man is in jail, as they both should be, at least the UK took steps to penalize a child rapist, Prince Andrew, I mean, Mr. Windsor, whereas the United States continues to protect one, Donald Trump.

Vance's speech was far more extreme than anything on Mamdani's platform or his comments about the American promise. Peters quoted only his reference to union soldiers, but Vance here suggests that ancestors of Confederate soldiers have "a hell of a lot more claim over America" than creedalists./7

If you think about it, identifying America just with agreeing with the principles, let’s say, of the Declaration of Independence, that’s a definition that is way over-inclusive and under-inclusive at the same time. What do I mean by that? Well, first of all, it would include hundreds of millions, maybe billions of foreign citizens who agree with the principles of the Declaration of Independence. Must we admit all of them tomorrow? If you follow that logic of

America as a purely creedal nation, America purely as an idea, that is where it would lead you. But at the same time, that answer would also reject a lot of people that the ADL would label as domestic extremists. Even those very Americans had their ancestors fight in the Revolutionary War and the Civil War. And I happen to think that it’s absurd, and the modern left seems dedicated to doing this, to saying, you don’t belong in America unless you agree with progressive liberalism in 2025. I think the people whose ancestors fought in the Civil War have a hell of a lot more claim over America than the people who say they don’t belong.

A Nazi Tattoo Exposes Democrats’ Greatest Weakness www.nytimes.com/2025/10/29/o... @tressiemcphd.bsky.social is unmatched. Read her latest piece—and everything else she writes.

A screenshot of a block of text with a black background and white serif font. The text reads:

“I don’t particularly care about the symbols people use to signal their membership in a group. Maybe you do need a terrifying tattoo to be a real Marine. And maybe sometimes that terrifying tattoo might resemble Nazi iconography. If you are willing to accept that from a distance, as many Democrats say they are, a person may not be able to tell the real symbol of hate from its doppelgänger, that is for you to live with.

But, I do care about the political trade-offs we will ask people to make in the name of pragmatism. If the Democratic future requires us to exchange our discomfort with casual Nazism to advance a political agenda, I am not interested. Maybe other voters are — some polling suggests that young voters still support Platner. And maybe Platner will find a way to redeem himself. No one owes him that chance, but there is still a way forward. It’s called doing the work.

But don’t tell me that excusing that tattoo is good politics. It is the exact same politics that the right is selling, in a different outfit.”
