Zero Republicans call for Benghazi-style hearings. No rightwing media outrage. Republicans dined off of 4 dead Americans in Benghazi for a decade, and yet 3 dead Americans at the hands of a GOP president who promised no new wars gets no pushback. Fuck these fake outrage ghouls.

Forty years ago, 90% of media outlets were spread across 50 companies. Now, just 5 companies control 90% of the media market. This consolidation hurts consumers and helps oligarchs. 🧵

Tech billionaires know that climate change is real, income inequality is horrific, and war is worsening. They want to accelerate it—to bring us to the brink of collapse—in hopes of ruling the ashes. Their ignorance is blinding. They think we’ll turn on each other. The truth: we’ll turn on them.

I am against gerrymandering, but I am also against unilateral disarmament. Gavin Newsom’s plan to redistrict in California, to get more seats in 2026, and stop Trump in his tracks, should be replicated by Democratic Governors across the country. We need to actually fight here.

It’s coming to light that even some of the trade deals that are “done” haven’t actually been signed. They are frameworks, or supposed verbal agreements. This is all looking very shaky.

I truly hope this puts a definitive end to the perpetual insistence by Democrats that they can compromise with Republicans. You can't. These people are extreme, depraved, and shameless. They just stripped healthcare from 17 million people to give themselves a tax cut.
