Can you imagine having the fucking audacity be white and complaining about being bruised by LAPD at a protest. When the LAPD has been gleefully beating and killing Black folks in the streets for decades and GETTING AWAY WITH IT.

Do you remember Rodney King?

The shit that white people are experiencing at protests is only just a fraction of the pain and the trauma Black people have experienced from the police for CENTURIES.

Did you know that Gavin Newsom’s father helped to bring Nazi scientists to the United States? Weird how the ultra wealthy are never more than a step or two away from Nazis.

Samhain Goldstein @goldstein.bsky.social · 2h

Newsom is now trying to pretend he grew up poor, eating wonderbread and Mac and cheese. This is pathetic and fake af. He was literally featured in news articles about the children of the rich back in the day. Honestly, this sort of pandering is condescending af.

Not really a comparable situation. VA is coming off the national far right hangover and the current one from Youngkin. Youngkin was an outlier win for modern VA. Any status quo Democrat would be crushing this race.

What's happening in NYC is unprecedented.

How many people will say Mamdani should be a national model for Democrats while ignoring the fact Spanberger, a moderate former CIA officer from the suburbs, will likely do far more bonkers numbers?

Clearly trans women do these things but there is something so bleak about defining womanhood as only service to others

The reality of being a woman!

tweet by someone called June Slater:
These trans women. Do they ever do things like women actually do, run a home, cook, put the washer on, get the kids to school, visit relatives in care homes, budget the bills, clean the house, chauffeur kids about? You know the reality of being a woman!

Remember when the Supreme Court gave a pass to a state that created a private right of action crafted with the purpose of evading federal law and judicial review?

States should experiment with a similar law to allow damages actions against federal agents in state court.

That'll go over well.

On Thursday (10/23), as I was walking back to the office with my lunch I stopped to heckle a crowd of National Guard and federal agents. I was then tackled to the ground, slammed against a squad car, arrested and held in a cell for several hours.

It annoys me when people say “they’re on SNAP but their hair and nails are done and they’ve got tattoos”. It’s extremely normal to do your own hair and buy press on nails, and tattoos literally last forever. What do tattoos someone got 10 years ago have to do with them needing to eat now

There's a particular kind of doomer on here who's like "and then SCOTUS will install him as president for a third term, and the military will back him up" as if that's the end of history.

Friend, there's still an "and then" after that.

It's cool how the last thing the United States Empire did before collapsing in utter embarrassment is bankroll and coordinate a genocide that was wildly unpopular with its population and achieved nothing but shattering what little trust remained between the populace and its government.

Semafor newsletter via @willsommer.bsky.social. I have expired. I am deceased.

Washington Post CEO Will Lewis has largely stayed out of the public eye as the paper has scaled back its staff and altered the direction of its opinion page. But that hasn't stopped him from recruiting. In recent months, Lewis attempted to hire the Free Press reporter Olivia Reingold, two people familiar with the situation told Semafor, an idea that he discussed with owner Jeff Bezos, who supported the move. The idea was for Reingold to serve as one of the first new faces in the paper's overhauled opinion section, with Bezos' new focus on free markets and personal liberties. The attempt to hire Reingold to create written and video opinion content is part of the Post's push to make the paper's journalists engage in different mediums; the paper announced earlier this year that it was launching a creator network and hiring staff to create more personality-driven content. Reingold declined to comment; a spokesperson for the Post said the paper doesn't comment on hiring discussions.
