This is not the first time Ed Sheeren has revealed himself. He's also a scab. The Starbucks Workers Union is still trying to get a contract. The boycott is still on.
Facebook Post from Fight For a Union

Remembering when Starbucks brought in Ed Sheeran for a PR stunt while the real employees were asking him to support their union efforts (he sided with shareholders)

IT'S BOYCOTT STARBUCKS SEASON🍁

Inage of Scab Ed Sheeran holding a Starbucks cup.

Looking weak is Democrats biggest problem. And the triangulating BS doesn't bring in new voters, it makes voters trust them less. Just stand up for what you believe! People respect that more!

I got an interesting email from @repdelbene.bsky.social It turns out she is not philosophically against forcing votes that will ultimately be unsuccessful. This vote failed 19-18. She just doesn't want to impeach Trump. Which is why she has voted to protect Trump from Impeachment THREE times now.

I move to have WA CD 1 be dissolved and integrated into WA CD 7. Today @jayapal.house.gov voted to support impeachment and posted in support of Macklemore and Palestinians. I want a not entirely useless rep.

For the record, here is how the @wadems.org Congressional Delegation voted on the @algreen.house.gov impeachments the last two times. You'll notice that @marilynstrickland.bsky.social @adamsmith.house.gov changed. @repdelbene.bsky.social took the coward's Yea. H/t @jonathancohn.bsky.social

One of the reasons I voted against @repdelbene.bsky.social in the primary is her first loyalty is to the tech industry. bsky.app/profile/path...

It's a politician's responsibility to secure votes and build winning coalitions, actually. You should yell at them when they're failing to do that, not the disillusioned people being thrown under the bus.

According to Jeffries, the current plan is open collaboration with a fascist government.
Arrested Develeopment meme:

Tobias Fünke: There are copious examples in history of the liberal parties openly collaborating with the fascists in an attempt to appease them and maintain long term control of the levers of power.

Lindsay Bluth Fünke: Well, did it work for those people?

Tobias Fünke: No, it never does. I mean, these people somehow delude themselves into thinking it might, but... but it might work for us.

There are 8 Democratic Congressmembers from WA that can force a vote of impeachment on Trump, Homan, and Miller over this at any point. All alone. Don't need permission from Jeffries. Yet, none have. Put the pressure on them to do their duty.

@repdelbene.bsky.social posts about tariffs a lot. She thinks they're bad. Here she even acknowledges some are illegal. But the Constitutional remedy is impeachment, not posts. And as a House member who has power to force an impeachment vote on this, not doing so makes you complicit.
Screenshot of Bluesky post by Rep Duzan DelBene. She links to article from Politico headlined, "The White House is digging in on tariff refunds" about administration slowdown on processing refunds for illegally collected tariffs. 

DelBene comments, "Trump took money from American families and small businesses with his illegal tariffs. Now the President is doing everything he can to avoid paying it back."

They literally did the same thing in 2000. Why wouldn't they think it would work again? Hell...Roberts, Kavanaugh, and Barrett participated and they're on the Supreme Court.
Screenshot of article. Image shows a bunch of pasty white, treasonous losers rioting in Florida inside the Miami-Dade election office on Nov 22, 2000 to shut down the Presidential election recount in order to illegitimately install George W Bush as President.

I will no longer be arguing with somebody who thinks Jeffries has done an ASTOUNDING job. That person is not serious and does not understand the political moment we're in.
Screenshot: @emptywheel.bsky.com posts "Should people assessing [Hakeen Jeffries] behavior also be expected to have any knowledge of it?

He has done an ASTOUNDING job as Minority Leader; Johnson hasn't had effective control of his gavel since July. He has gotten near-unanimity. He got a vote for ACA subsidies in the minority.c

Got mad enough at the Boomers yelling about e-bikes/e-motos that I did some math.
Graph comparing the speed necessary to approximate the death rates in pedestrian crashes in a car vs e-bike/e-moto. A car traveling 20mph has a 5%fatality. An e-bike/e-moto would need to travel 89mph to have the same impact. A car traveling 30mph has a 45%fatality. An e-bike/e-moto would need to travel 133mph to have the same impact. A car traveling 40mph has an 85%fatality. An e-bike/e-moto would need to travel 178mph to have the same impact.

Jamie Hererra Beutler was the "moderate" Republican who held the WA-03 seat before MGP. But if you compare GovTrack ideology score, MGP is actually to the right of JHB. You replaced a Republican with a Democrat who is more ideologically Republican than the Republican she replaced. Is that good?
Overlapping scatterplots showing ideological scores of members of Congress from GovTrack. Democrat Gluesenkamp Perez is to the right of Republican Herrera Beutler.

Incredibly disappointed in @wslc.bsky.social in this last minute endorsement of previously, and rightly, unendorsed MGP. MGP has been on the wrong side of almost every issue. April Sims full statement makes clear that our union leaders are still operating out of fear. That's how you lose.

Chair of the DCCC, Suzan DelBene, is worth over $142million. Up from $53million when she self financed her campaigns with $4.5million to buy a seat in Congress. The 2nd place Dem at the time ran on concerns about Super PACs. DelBene now rakes in millions from corps & PACs for herself & the DCCC.

This is funny. The "independent" candidate in WA-01, who has no campaign structure, is trying to hail mary into the top two with a Krist Novoselic endorsement. They must know each other from libertarian circles b/c about 25% of James' independent expenditures come from the Novoselics.
Screnshit if instagram reel. Krist Novoselic stands with James Etzkorn who is running as an independent for Congress in Washington's first district.

DelBene voted against impeachment twice, voted multiple times to fund genocide, actually voted to give ICE more powers...heck, she even voted to honor Charlie Kirk b/c the last thing she wants is to stick her neck out. She hasn't even uttered the word fascism. I'm voting @huntergordon.bsky.social
