Whoa- that’s it? Total lack of serious people, as you have told us many times 🥺

phillippa.bsky.social @phillippa.bsky.social · 08/07/2026

Thank you for your insightful analysis. I often wonder when I read you in the Atlantic whether you or you editors hear back from people in the administration and if so how they defend their total lack of strategic thinking?

Did he say that the presence of a library signaled gentrification - in other words, did he blame local governments for not placing libraries in marginalized communities? I could see that as an issue.

Love this for Bari. She’s having quite the week! 😉

I wish Congressional Dems would form a shadow cabinet so there is a designated spokesperson on every topic who can clearly articulate an alternative position and vision of a different future. This is how it’s done in the UK. Despite not being a Parliamentary democracy, I think it could work here.

I’m going to the UK in September and thinking about getting my annual flu shot there as they may have the updated one, and I’m not sure we will here in the USA.

Former elected official here (I retired at 72 to make way for younger folks) and committed Democrat. I’m pretty tuned in and have to say that Ken Martin has been underwhelming. Who is he? What is his vision? Why is he not speaking to us? Until I have faith he’s the right leader I’m not giving.

Important article that informs many of us who intuitively believed that racism and misogyny were key to Trump’s election, with actual data. Thank you for sharing.

I admit disappointment in this article. It tells the how, but not the why? I still don’t get what these people think society will look like, or how regular government functions like roads, bridges, air traffic control, or food safety will happen. Will seniors be kicked out of nursing homes? Explain!

Just wait until Moms and Dads start back-to-school shopping. Shoes, clothes, backpacks, school supplies - all made in China. Trump will be excoriated by every parent in the US.

I just voted NO to advance Frank Bisignano's nomination to lead the Social Security Administration. NO SENATOR should vote to confirm someone who will enable Trump & Elon to DECIMATE SSA and make it harder for Americans to get the benefits they've paid into their entire careers.

What is stagflation? Why are we talking about it right now? (And what does it have to do with anchovies with ketchup?)

Seattle Art Museum currently has a special exhibit of Ai Weiwei. Stunning and so very prescient re: the current situation.

Just got an email telling me that a blanket I ordered has not yet been shipped due to the tariff situation. So now I’m stuck trying to decide if I should cancel the order and look elsewhere.

I think this is called a shakedown. A technical term he learned in Queens maybe?

Just wait until moms and dads need to do back-to-school shopping. Kids shoes p, clothes, backpacks, pencils, pens, notebooks -almost all made in China. Someone should draw up a shopping list with prices now and compare with prices+tariffs.

This does not allow younger members to gain the experience required to lead. This must change! We as voters should demand this in every town hall and in phone calls to our elected representatives.

I was a local elected official and decided when I turned 73 that it was time to announce my retirement and help recruit and mentor my successor. It was the right thing to do! The problem with national Dems is that the whole committee system in the house and senate runs on seniority. 1/2

50%of Trump supporters = less than one quarter of voters. So there is that.

Only posts that cheer me up these days are from Canada, and since Hegseth and Vance spouted off, also now from Europe.

Ex reporter here. If I were a White House reporter now I’d be on the phone or online the minute a news conference was over and send everything I had to my friends at AP, so they had equal opportunity to report whatever godawful thing just occurred.

Every member of Congress—myself included—was elected to write our nation's laws. Why on earth would we confirm Russ Vought to uphold those laws after he has made perfectly clear he has no intention of following them?

This is not being sponsored by a credible organization. Unless someone can identify who is behind this, I’d advise staying away.

Please don’t wait until Monday AFTERNOON to speak out. We need you to take this all much more seriously! Be at the Treasury first thing in the morning and get the media there!!!
