It's always something at the Trump FCC. Of course politely asking Brendan Carr to deny a campaign weapon to Club for Growth is, well, somewhat quixotic. But "Republicans have a plan to deluge your phone with AI slop calls" seems like something Dems should want voters to hear.

Jon Lovett is struggling with the word Zionism, which is fine. When Michael Moynihan presses him on how he is struggling because the word has been redefined for political use, he makes an entire argument to why everyone should be a Zionist. He was so close.

Tweet from @NairYasmin

So many people are forced to work through their sickness are often not allowed to even mask in their workplaces. AOC could have easily sent a clear message: "Covid is serious, and since I can, I'll work remotely and minimise the risk. Everyone deserves my kind of privilege."
Yasmin Nair (One Tenacious B.) @NairYas... • 14h
AOC is setting a terrible example. She can choose to work remotely, make sure she's well enough to travel, and not potentially infect others. Instead, she's sending a message to Americans that's it's not only okay but necessary to spread the virus. 1/2...

Do we all agree on what he slogan Free Palestine” means? I took screenshots of an illustrated post by Jordyn Tilchen on Instagram explaining how it was designed to be vague & sow chaos by not having a 100% clear definition. Please read this through this thread & understand the manipulation at work.>

THE PROBLEM WITH
"FREE PALESTINE”

It's probably the most successful slogan of the last decade.
It's also one of the least specific.
That's not a bug. It's a feature.

In July, ICE kidnapped 700 people in Washington State. They are taking people with no criminal records at grocery stores, gas stations, and on their way to pick up their kids at school. This is cruel, plain and simple. ICE must be dismantled.

Aside from certain other obvious factors, one reason why so much online propaganda tries to make you angry at Jeffries and Schumer is because Republicans have seen what they can do in the minority and are pants-shittingly scared of what they'd be able do in the majority.

IDGAF if someone has an "unfair advantage" in children's sports because the point of children's sports is for children to move their bodies, play, and build team skills. They should be co-ed anyway, because in the big grown-up world boys and girls and thems need to work together.
