So I'm leading, now, everyone.
Follow me, or at least read my badly threaded instructions for our next steps. I really think I've got this. I can't explain it, but I won't let us down. I really do think we can do this! And it should be fun.

Ongoing Slaughter @ongoingslaughter.bsky.social · Aug 5

Honestly, me! I will do it.

Tomorrow, go to your nearest busy intersection, by yourself of with others, with a sign indicating you are fighting for America. Stay for an hour.
Please send a pic of your sign and a brief report.
Wed: Call Representative
Th: Call both Senators
Tell them HOW YOU FEEL!

Such an important point & one of the things I love about Zohran is his support for trans folks has been unequivocal.

From Evan: it's a huge night of hope for the trans community. The Republicans went all in on anti-trans ads in multiple races and so far there's no sign it got them anything.

Perhaps the page can be turned on blaming us for Harris' loss last year.

adding to this: I think anti-trans ads will still play a role in GOP primaries (b/c they're transphobic). & *some* Dem pundits will still blame trans ppl (b/c they're transphobic). but hopefully most voters now understand these tactics as scapegoating & won't fall for them

What I learned tonight is the future of the Democratic Party is a trans Muslim CIA agent wine mom who wants to eliminate capitalism and barter with people on the free bus.

Democrats are currently ahead in 63 (!!!) races in the Virginia House of Delegates.

If this holds, it would be one of the largest state legislature swings in the last 4 years.

Its an absolute bloodbath for anti-trans Republicans.

Politicians should probably get on Bluesky to get better in touch with the American electorate.

The entire right-wing propaganda machine came after Zohran Mamdani.

The president and his allies came after him.

Democratic leaders, by and large, did not have his back until the last minute.

He still won, turning out historic numbers and inspiring young voters.

His politics can win anywhere.

I’m just a small-town political scientist, & it’s still relatively early, but it appears that The Actual Democrats did not Need To Do any of the Things or Learn any of the Obvious Lessons that Ezra Douthglesias said they Must Do & Learn.

Young people in NYC absolutely showed out and there should be 1000 articles and profiles about this. Because we have had to put up with 1000 MAGA diner stories for years now.

Looking forward to learning all about how the right should move left to win elections tomorrow. They should maybe dye their hair pink, learn to love pronouns.

They are still abducting people in Logan, including a worker from Reno like 20 mins ago. If you live in the area, maybe take a nice long walk with your whistle for lunch?

Body cams apparently show Border Patrol agents joking about tossing tear gas at a nonviolent protest, with one agent saying "Hey, throw it [tear gas] for fun."

Agents then tried to drive away, but there was apparently so much tear gas they were overcome, couldn't drive, and had to leave on foot.

Gregory Pratt @royalpratt.bsky.social · 10h

A Border Patrol agent was caught on video telling another to throw tear gas “for fun,” according to a court filing. They also mocked protesters and residents who were getting gassed.

My brother Mike (pictured below) has been wandering the streets for days now. He keeps trying to hold pretend press conferences but then insists he doesn't know anything about anything. It's very sad!

If you have seen him, please let our family know!

Was doing ICEWatch tonight in DC and on the way home, came across a potential ICE checkpoint.

Feds had pulled over a father with a young child in the backseat. It looks like they may have been trying to pull over more cars but neighbors immediately turned out.

People were on the corners…

Some amazing quotes in here from Judge Ellis, who reportedly had to intervene in Gregory Bovino's deposition on Thursday when the latest in a "revolving door of attorneys" for DOJ was unprepared for questions.
