By moving to the “center,” Democrats have failed to fight the forces that led us to Donald Trump: widening inequality, economic insecurity, and the unchecked political power of corporations and the rich. Political centrism is nonsense. There is no middle ground between democracy and oligarchy.

folx, I’ve been working on AI "ethics" for almost a decade now & hate to tell you there’s no such thing as "ethical AI" the only "ethical principle" that works is regulating the shit out of the industry & to take back control of our autonomy, fundamental rights, freedoms & right to exist w/out AI

"So what needs to happen now - and it needs to happen now - is that Democrat-led states need to set aside procedure and redraw the maps. New York, New Jersey, Washington, Oregon, Illinois, Maryland, and Colorado need to get it done. Do it in 2026 if possible. By 2028 is non-negotiable."

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com Despite what the Trump administration says, the president’s most lethal policy will almost surely be his 71% cut in humanitarian aid from 2024 to 2025, our columnist Nicholas Kristof writes of U.S.A.I.D. “The world’s richest men are crushing the world’s poorest children.”

I realize this is obvious to most but allow me to rant: At the core of Trump's base love for him is a simmering resentment over their mediocrity and gratitude for him making it permissible to be arrogant whilst mediocre. Everything in this cult can be traced back to that. (thread)

On a more serious note, this does show the necessity of a big-tent single-issue pro-democracy coalition. Autocrats lose when anti-authoritarianism is the opposition-uniting priority, and win when they can play divide and conquer on lesser issues.

Donald Trump’s deranged threat to destroy “a whole civilization” in Iran is a threat to commit war crimes and genocide. Republicans in Congress must prevail upon VP Vance, now campaigning for Putin’s puppet Viktor Orban in Hungary, to return to the U.S. and invoke Section 4 of the 25th Amendment.

"Only about one in five Republicans said they disapprove of his overall performance in the White House, little ​changed from about one in seven last week" That's a 6-point swing (from 14% to 20%). How that "little changed" but the 7% swing on the econ q they highlight significant?

the fact the president of the united states is even thinking about asserting emergency powers to disrupt an election - just a few years after he incited an armed coup attempt - should be the top issue. but the media mostly shrugs and the opposition doesnt focus on it.

🚨 Baltimore: Out of an abundance of caution, we’re advising neighbors to be prepared for a potential increase in ICE activity in the coming days. Based on observed logistics shifts — vehicles and expanded operating space — alongside the recent 287(g) ban, a federal ramp-up appears likely.

You don't deploy this creature to make citizens "safe," you deploy it to make citizens afraid. The point of ICE isn't "safety" or "immigration," it's intimidation and control. Removing his mask won't make him less dangerous or change the reason he's there. You can't reform that, @schumer.senate.gov
