the problem with "Dems need more than one message" is that Dems HAVE more than one message but any time one of their messages isn't a message you personally want to hear, everyone explodes into a million tiny pieces AND ALSO pretends that was the only message being communicated

if you vote for another cent for this you are a collaborator. this is a litmus test for every politician for the rest of my life
Yesterday, these incompetent fucks were just going door-to-door in a neighborhood near my house at 8:30 in the morning. School buses were driving through trying to pick up kids, people were out walking their dogs, and people were taking out their trash cans.

I love when you tell people how terrible Newsom is, they're always like, "Well, it's nice to have ideals, but if it comes down to him or the Nazi in the general, *I* am going to vote for him"
WE'RE TELLING YOU HOW TERRIBLE HE IS NOW SO IT'S *NOT* A CHOICE BTW HIM & A NAZI, CARL. THAT'S THE POINT.

Trump’s message to America.

Trump’s message to America.
Journalists should heed this; news consumers should demand it. A terrific 🧵:
My Stop the Presses newsletter calls for a dramatic change of tactics by major media to produce "radically truthful” news that defeats the right-wing disinformation industry. Right now, the media are getting slam-dunked by fascist liars. Here’s a thread with my 10 main points. 🧵🧵🧵
How to build a radically truthful news outlet
The old ways don’t work. Time to declare war on the liars.

In all seriousness he should never be able to make another public appearance without someone shouting pedophile at him. Do it at the State of the Union if you really want some fireworks. He’s not a well man and something’s gotta give eventually.

They refused to probe a murder. The people with consciences walked out.
🚨 NEW: At least four leaders of the DOJ Civil Rights Division resigned because the section's head, Harmeet Dhillon, decided not to investigate shooting of Renee Good.

Tillis is spot on. The Senate can't confirm a Trump toady to succeed Powell at the Fed. The rest of the game is now out in the open, and it doesn't end well.

“ICE needs more training” is an echo of the weak circa 2003 democratic stance that “we need more body armor in Iraq.” It’s a wish washy poll tested bit of pablum meant to appeal to some mythical middle. Like ending the Iraq War the only real position is to abolish ICE.

There is no attitude for which legacy journalists are more often rewarded by their bosses than "Everybody needs to calm down." It is a preening announcement that you are the adult in the room, immune from emotion or overreaction or "hysteria." And it is the worst imaginable priority for this era. >

Lmfao what an awesome proposal. One reason you need a 90% income tax rate at this level is these guys are too stupid to have the amount of power they do. Like giving a glock to a 4 year old

I'm gonna be real dog, I think you're right that there will be a mostly fair election in 2028 (it's remarkably hard to rig our elections given how de-centralized voting is in the US), but there is a legitimate threat that they won't peacefully hand over power if they lose.
This kind of thing does point out a real ethical dilemma: block or mute?

im sorry i know it sucks but journalists are going to have to be willing to get fired for simply describing what they see happening with their own eyes, you look like fucking morons
"Was the officer struck by the vehicle, as President Trump insists, or did the car pass by or around him?"
If we only had some trusted institution that could adjudicate between competing claims by relying on facts.
