What gets me about this line is the entitlement.

There are so many more ways to “be in politics” than “become a US senator.”

Graham Platner to @daveweigel.bsky.social:
"How do you expect to win back men when you go back through somebody’s Reddit history and just pull it all out and say: ‘Oh, my God, this person has no right to ever be in politics?’"

DSCC Chair Gillibrand: “It’s up to the voters of Maine to decide.”

Exclusive: Several quantum-computing companies are in talks to give the Commerce Department equity stakes in exchange for federal funding.

can you imagine being sent to a country you never have been to before and be incarcerated with no charges? That is what the USA is doing to people.

A Cuban man deported by the U.S. to the African nation of Eswatini is on a hunger strike at a maximum-security prison having been held there for more than three months without being charged or having access to legal counsel under the Trump administration’s third-country program.

Sen. Jeff Merkley has been speaking on the Senate floor since 6:20pm last night — protesting Trump and warning that "tyranny has arrived."
