🔥 Jon Stewart Defends Democratic Socialism: “When you call it SoCiALiSm, I think it’s a misnomer — It’s about strengthening a safety net for a country that has suffered too long overvaluing capital and money, and undervaluing labor and work. That’s it.”

Been saying AOC should run in 2028 since I saw her speak at the DNC in 2024. Every argument against it has echos of the arguments against Obama running in 2008.

I read all 77 pages of the Supreme Court ruling upholding state bans on trans athletes in sports. Justice Sonia Sotomayor, writing in dissent, said that to the court's majority "the facts do not matter, even though the consequences are serious." She also pointed toward another way:
A screenshot of the following text: Sotomayor cited a case largely ignored by the majority opinion: United States v. Virginia, in which the court, by a vote of 7-1 in 1996, found that women could no longer be excluded from the Virginia Military Institute. Even if many women wouldn't be able to make it at VMI, the exclusion of a minority of women was still enough to declare that a fix was necessary. "Unresolved factual differences matter," Sotomayor wrote, "even if the classes of people to whom they might be relevant are themselves small."

Ossoff: "Handing an out-of-control executive even more unfettered power just makes it even more vital that we restore checks and balances and constrain this president using our power as citizens as voters in these midterm elections."

This is interesting. More than 200 of the world’s political, financial, and tech elites registered for a private retreat organized by Dialog, the secretive invitation-only network co-founded by billionaire investor Peter Thiel.

Why are republicans so fucking obsessed with people's sexual parts? And mostly those of teenagers and children?

Buttiigieg: "Look, when you are this deep into your second year, if your reflex is to still be trying to blame the previous administration, it really shows that you are out of ideas, out of solutions, and unwilling to take ownership of your own choices."

Thank you Stephen Colbert for your willingness to speak truth to power. Staying far from timid. And never bending the knee to a wannabe king.

he's right and he's right to say it
screenshot of a Facebook post by Corey Robin, which says: "By the way, did you all notice how Zohran made affordability a central issue of his campaign without selling out trans kids or shitting on immigrants? Might be some lessons there. Just a thought."

No time for theatrics: defector.com/no-time-for-...
Chuck Schumer is one of the most powerful figures in the Democratic Party because this is how he processes events: Politics is a series of transient messaging opportunities, set up in sequence to position the party and its officials for some real political action somewhere over the horizon. Everything is a gambit or a distraction; nothing is the thing itself. 

In this case, the message was particularly absurd. The Supreme Court supermajority is certainly made up of partisan hacks, but those hacks didn't hand down their anti-trans decision to finesse the midweek news cycle to take some heat off the Republican Congress's efforts to pass an unpopular budget. They handed down their anti-trans decision because they took up an anti-trans case because they are against trans people, because they are bigots with a lifelong organized commitment to inscribing their bigotry into constitutional law.

"I want people to be safe and protected. I want to live on the right side of history. I am an immigrant. My parents are refugees from Chile. We fled a dictatorship and I was privileged enough to grow up in the United States after asylum in Denmark. I stand by those protections, always."
