Time to introduce myself to Bluesky. I'm chris. The more important one behind me is Shelby. I'm a PhD student in higher education policy, tw*tter refugee, & recovering alcoholic & fundraiser. I talk about politics, gay shit, education, addiction, Florida, and my life.

Welcome. Nice to meet you.

"If they could snap their fingers and eliminate the ACA marketplaces altogether, they would. And they haven’t arrived at a consensus on what the insurance system would look like in their preferred world, beyond a bunch of vacuous bromides about 'choice' and 'patient-centered care.'"
Republicans are completely full of it on healthcare
And it becomes more obvious every time they talk about it.

The fact that protests now feature people who don’t normally have to worry about what might happen to them in an adverse encounter with security forces is a HUGE DEAL.

It means that the “real” victims don’t have to suffer alone. It means that some people care about something more than themselves

Someone in my mentions is upset because these people haven’t suffered the worst at ICE’s hands and therefore they shouldn’t be praised for being out on the streets?

Yeah, no. To push back on these people we need everyone — especially those with relative privilege — to get up and get involved.

Police officers who publicly declare that they’ll quit if a mayoral candidate they dislike wins the election are (1) usually bluffing—sure buddy, toss away that paycheck and pension—and (2) exactly the sort of cops cities would be better off without, ones who don’t see themselves as public servants.

MAGA is dressing in plain clothes and trying to incite violence at protests.
They are desperately trying to help Trump. It’s not a widespread problem, but you should be aware. If you are new to protests, listen to the local resistance community when they spot a cosplaying agent of chaos.

From our Editorial Board:

A Medicare funding scandal.

A charity founded by the state's First Lady.

A fierce push to defeat a recreational marijuana amendment.

It's going to a grand jury — and Florida's attorney general is wrapped up in it all.

A grand jury probe into the Hope Florida scandal begins next week. Attorney General James Uthmeier, who is neck deep in the scandal, ought to take a voluntary leave until his name is cleared.

This seems like confirmation
Then Mr. Trump won the presidency back, and the Biden administration was determined to get a cease-fire in place by January, before it left office. It drafted a peace plan, much of which was quite similar to the “20 point plan” Mr. Trump recently issued. There was slow progress: More than 130 hostages had been released by the time the January cease-fire took place.

“We handed over a cease-fire that silenced the guns, had hostages coming out and aid going in, along with a day-after plan to make it permanent,” Mr. Blinken said. But when the new administration took over, “the moment was squandered,” he added. “Israel and Hamas went back to war for eight months.”

Israeli officials tell a different story. Mr. Biden was a lame duck, they noted, and disengaged. Mr. Trump was a known entity, less likely to lecture Mr. Netanyahu in private or public. They put their money on a new president, and a new negotiating team

Again, it's very weird how everyone--Democrats, Republicans, media, everyone--just pretends Republicans can't just eliminate the filibuster and past the CR today.
Ted Cruz: Gavin is deliberately lying. 

To fund the government takes 60 votes in the Senate. There are only 53 Republicans. We need at least 7 Dems. 

We keep voting to open the government. Dems keep voting to shut it down.

@GavinNewsom
 knows that. And he’s lying to you.
