Reposting this, because getting closer to midterms, the populist rhetoric and misinformation from people with their own, selfish agendas is growing exponentially and getting even more ridiculous.🍸🍸

Apropos of nothing (lol), after diving deep into some of the polling with midterms coming up fast, just a random reading suggestion for a large swathe of my white sistren. Enjoy!🍸🍸

One of my favorite people, one of my best friends, and an amazing old broad who I am lucky enough to also have as my grandma, turned 96 today. She was surrounded by her kids, grandkids & great grandkids while she feasted on my spread of quesadillas, tacos and lots of cake. What a perfect night.🍸🍸
My grandma who turned 96 today. Amazing, smart as a whip and a truly crazy old dame. No one better to share a great laugh (or cry) with. Just such a special woman. You’ve come a long way, baby.

I just watched the speech in Gander from former Canadian Prime Minister Jean Chrétien. Absolutely incredible. At 92, a bit wobbly and unsteady in appearance, but his words were honest, powerful and needed. I watched live on c-span, but well worth tracking down. Canada should be so proud.🍸🍸

Hello to my peeps! One quick request. If you are going to use terms like centrist, establishment or even corporate, particularly on my TL, be prepared to define your terms and name names. I am seeing these words too often weaponized and meaning ”Dems I don’t like.” Seems like a reasonable ask, no?🍸🍸

I just broke up w/ my Persian restaurant, and I am more upset than any break-up I have had, lol. For over a decade, it‘s been my go-to to feed the fam, with drop-off for my grandma, but mainly for the only dish I can eat on a chemo night. Well, for “business reasons”, the dish is gone. And so am I.🥲

A lot will be said about Gloria Steinem today, both good and bad. She was one of my earliest heroes and a true guiding light for my mom when she needed the courage to forge *her* own path. I will remain forever grateful. Fair wind and following seas to one of the most fearless women I have known.🍸🍸

I love this tribute so much.🍸🍸
The reason why the Muppet's Christmas Carol worked was Micheal Caine accepted his co-stars as serious actors and treated them as peers.

The reason Muppet Treasure Island worked was because Tim Curry accepted that he was a muppet and treated them as peers.

RIP Tim.

Good Lord on the *fact* that too many people have zero idea of the job of the minority leader/Speaker. Nancy Pelosi was *not* known for her amazing speeches, lol. But, she was probably the best Speaker of all time. Has everyone simply memory holed that?🍸🍸

This thread is important. Too many not understanding the role of House minority leader combined with a certain faction/ the very online & their pet pundits spreading falsehoods about Jeffries has been insidious and destructive populist garbage. And the motives seem pretty clear to many of us.🍸🍸

Sigh. I am going to say, again, the labeling being used to push narratives is extremely stupid. There are not only two groups, left or centrist. It is like asking someone if they are a child or a senior citizen.

It is hard not to think that, while awful, unpatriotic and criminal, Nixon’s crimes feel almost quaint watching the level of corruption, greed and pain causing decisions made by Trump and fully enabled by the GOP. Today seems like a great day for the press to take a good look at itself, as well.🍸🍸

At this point, I think people who think M4A is the only option for universal care might make my head explode. It is one method, and not one the majority of the successful universal care countries use. Without the bizarre purity focus on M4A, we could truly be so much closer to universal care.🍸

So much love & appreciation for Joe Biden. On a personal note, I held a hilariously petty grudge against him for calling me “little lady” when I first met him on a Senate elevator in the 80s. Now, there are few people I hold in higher esteem for service to their country & love for their families.🍸🍸

Out of my lane, but GOP electeds better start paying attention. Trump‘s endorsement doesn’t carry the same weight (see Ogles) and those on the way out, have rude awakenings coming. If looking for cushy jobs, note that some big Trump donors and corporations are starting to hedge their bets.🍸

Real question: Is it possible to post a thread about Trump & the GOP that does not turn into a Dem attack/whinefest thread? It is an insidious, knee-jerk reaction that should really be stopped, at least through midterms. We are not the press. We can say the GOP sucks with no equal time needed.🍸

Hot takes: Like him or not, the mayor of one city is not the future of all politics & one PAC and their donations should not be a litmus test for all evils in the world. The fans of one who are the same ones pushing the other are some of the silliest sounding populists at almost Trump like levels.

My hot take: You can like something someone says or posts without automatically saying they should be president. I would far prefer Reps do their jobs and work on building coalitions before even*considering* a run. That is why they were elected. Not for their next job.🍸🍸
