condemnations of political violence are well taken but it does feel as if some prominent political commentators are of the view that violence isn’t a part of the history of American politics and that is very much not true.

Let’s make one thing clear from the start: Charlie Kirk was the victim of a shooting in a country where he, along with other right-wing extremist influencers, have been inciting violence for years. — Kirk is neither a martyr nor a hero, he is a cause.

60% of American households can’t afford a minimal quality of life. Meanwhile, the 19 richest households saw their wealth increase by $1 trillion in 2024 — the biggest one-year increase ever. Our problem isn't a lack of resources. Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.

The supreme court just barely upholds one of our country's fundamental principles, please clap
WSJ headline that reads "breaking news: the supreme court declines to allow state funding for religious charter schools. The vote was 4-4, with justice Amy Coney Barrett recusing herself"

Sure, let’s dissect the mental and physical acuity of the former president who sought to make lives in America better while minimizing the reality of a deranged arsonist dismantling the country we’ve known and loved. What a failure to meet this moment.

People will say this is the result of a presidential election, and that’s partly true. But the Constitution does not delegate tariff power to the president, and he is only able to impose these ruinous, peace-destroying taxes because Congress has let him do so. Congress can end this at any time.

Pretty sure one of the whole ideas behind Congress was to stop a mad king from doing inexplicable things on a whim. Seems like maybe they could use a stronger reminder.

Tweet from @dril with an edit. Original says:

“Food $200
Data $150
Rent $800
Candles $3,600
Utility $150
someone who is good at the economy please help me budget this. my family is dying”

The edit is that the candles line is crossed out and replaced with “Tariffs: $6 trillion”

Hey NBC and Seth Meyers, y’all need to book the largest possible venue in D.C. on April 26th and do a competing fundraiser and comedy show that actually celebrates the First Amendment. Televise it. Make Amber Ruffin the central act. Send a message that free speech is non-negotiable.

When you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public

I need all of the Democratic leadership and big money donors to give @chuckschumer.com the same unyielding pressure to resign and pass the baton like they did to Joe Biden since Chuck is clearly no longer able to effectively do the job of minority leader.

It is not required for any other Senate Dem to vote with Schumer. Stand up for the people. Stand up for the party. Unite against this and lead where he won’t.

Let’s face it, Schumer has been terrible even before this. It is time for new leadership. He isn’t the person for this moment in history, and the longer he clings to power the worse off we all are.

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. “What can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.
