People will try to tell you it’s “just a joke,” but it’s much more than that: This is a test. Our democracy will not collapse in a single moment. It weakens when the public becomes numb to rhetoric that would once have been unthinkable. We cannot allow ourselves to become numb.

“We’re not doing this double standard shit anymore… this is a prime example of being able to dish it but not take it. Scott Jennings has built a career out of being a smug, condescending asshole on TV.” @adammockler.com responds to @GeraldoRivera’s absurd defense of Jennings

I think it’s time we call politicians like Jeff Landry, who supports a national fascist government project, what he is: a fascist.

If you were horrified watching elected leaders run & scramble because of gun violence, just imagine how my daughter Jaime felt in school running from an active shooter before she was killed. Now, become a part of the solution & only vote for people determined to address gun violence in America.

Will voters EVER understand the big lie about "scary democratic (small D) socialist policies?!" Bernie has told us for decades, and Mamdani is showing us now. We can instantly fund a WAR but have TO DEBATE for decades about healthcare for all - GEEZUS! They've LIED TO US FOR PROFIT for decades.

What I Saw Inside the Kennedy Center
I spent 10 months working at the institution because I thought I could help protect it. What I observed there is far worse than the public knows.

Watch this clip. Professors will recognize this kid as the student who didn't do the reading but still has very strong opinions about how it's all "bullshit," except this time he's not the callow student who's going to fail your course, he's the reviewer who's going to cancel your grant.

Demonstrating that Trump believes his cult will believe anything he tells them to believe, the White House announced that the shockingly racist meme posted on Trump's Truth Social account was posted by "a White House staffer." It was posted in the middle of the night, so which "staffer" is that?

Powerful white men once equated Black people with monkeys to justify their abduction, deportation, enslavement, lynching and segregation. The heinous image that Trump shared is explicit racism. There is no nowhere for his supporters to hide. Supporting him is incompatible with basic human decency.

As we noted at @americasvoice.bsky.social last year, $170B in anti-immigrant funding could instead have built more than 7,000 new elementary schools, paid for more than 1.5 million young Americans to attend an in-state public college for four years, or funded Head Start for nearly 14 years 👇🏽

The deputy White House chief of staff, Stephen Miller, called Pretti a “domestic terrorist” and an “assassin.” In fact, Pretti was a registered nurse working in intensive care at a Department of Veterans Affairs hospital. This is who he really was.

Weird to be commemorating the 250th anniversary of the Am Rev while living under a government that has a) sent armed troops to occupy cities perceived to be too rebellious, b) rendered largely irrelevant the representative branch of government, and c) claimed imperial right to rule other countries.

This is literally what they do whenever a Black person is killed by police. No matter how solid the evidence is, they will keep pushing that lie, not just to poison the conversation and make sure the killer walks free, but to reassert the political idea that these people deserve to be killed.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.
