Not in India at the moment, but ✊ Queasy to watch the massive and all-encompassing state repression, but all strength to everyone pouring out onto the streets right now.

They’re live-streaming the execution of the person they think they can get away with doing that to first. It’s a test. If they can do that, they’ll expand the margins of permission.

It saddens me to think that it took gas prices for Republicans to leave Trump and not that his name is in the Epstein files 38,000 times.

The first wave of Democratic candidates to understand that “The Supreme Court is a corrupt cesspool of pro-Trump reactionaries and there is only one way to fix it” is a winning message will become stars in a hurry

Democrats Who Are Still Afraid of Supreme Court Expansion Need to Grow Up
Democrats are finally grasping that their voters do not like the Supreme Court and do not want to be represented by politicians who defend it.

The Democratic Party has let a consulting industry exploit elderly donors in its name, wreck its reputation and finances in the process, and walk away rich whether the party wins or loses. When a mirror is held up, the instinct is to break the glass rather than look. On why the press looks away:

This is a story about the Democratic Party captured by its consultants, and about what happens when the pro-democracy press is asked to say so.

When you hear “exploiting the elderly for donations” you might think that’s something like hitting them up for $50-100 once every week or two. But often it’s on the scale of this guy- charged up to 88 times a day. Over $32,000 extracted in just FOUR MONTHS data4democracy.substack.com/p/the-bulwar...

As someone with deep personal experience relevant to this story, I have thoughts. Children born with severe congenital heart defects can have long, wonderful lives, if they receive $10Ms of lifelong medical care. Who will ensure this child's care is paid for? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

It's absolutely insane we've somehow let the Covid recriminations debate become like "why didn't we reopen in person schools before there was a vaccine" and not "why did none of the trump guys go to jail for stealing PPE from New York hospitals in March 2020"

Ok and I'm sure this has been covered but Trump's wall of texts has exhausted me: We all agree the 'gash' he keeps talking about are just tire tracks from where he insisted on driving his motorcade THROUGH the empty pool for some damn reason, right?

@mayor.nyc.gov @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social tarnishes himself and what he stands for with his continued association with Morris Katz, who worked for John Fetterman and avidly supported Graham Platner. He should think better of this, because his refusal to do so harms us all.

I geniunely do not think this is true, and not just because I am closer to these candidates on some axises. The successful DSA insurgents have governed as more or less normal left-libs once in office. Mamdani and AOC have been affable institutionalists. Nithya Raman is a technocrat.

It's hard to offer anything even remotely like praise of Andy Byford these days as he fronts Trump's scam to hoover tax money out of NYC in return for a useless "new" Penn Station built no-bid by his cronies, but, man, the trains did run faster and now they are slower again.

Anyway a federal judge fucks a cop repeatedly in chambers so law clerks have to hear it, yells at the law clerks, lies to the Chief Judge about it, and escapes public or meaningful consequences, you’ll forgive my skepticism about the rIgors of the judiciary self-policing.

9 years was not an excessive punishment. Peters was a county official who used someone else’s security badge to let a fellow election denier access the whole county's voting data. That is an extreme breach of public trust for the purpose of undermining our democracy; harsh deterrence is vital.

Election denier Tina Peters committed serious crimes, but her prison sentence was too harsh.

Hearing the head of the WHCA—who just days ago participated in a Paramount dinner “honoring” Trump— say tonight that the First Amendment is “fragile” because of a random shooter rather than because of the president sitting next to her on the podium is, I guess, exactly as pathetic as you’d expect.

The position “American shuls are presumed valid targets unless they proactively disavow Israel” is as wrong as “American Muslims need to proactively disavow Islamist violence to be considered good, loyal Americans.” Both are racist, and both are wrong.

If you're strapped for time, here's the highlight: I'm a stupid moron with an ugly face and a big butt and my butt smells and I like to kiss my own butt.
