Labor deserved a better party.

Labor was holding itself together with kleenex and spit in 1999 and it was still the backbone and bulk of Dem organizing.

Looks like he knows it too.
Holy shit. Simon Rosenberg, the longtime Dem lobbyist for Silicon Valley, has been trying to edit his own Wikipedia page under the user handle SimonWDC. Specifically, on March 13, 2025, he tried to delete this politically damaging paragraph from his biography:

"They are punishing Black women because they believe we radicalized white women." - @tressiemcphd.bsky.social

This is the best assessment of our current state of affairs evident by today's headlines about women in the NYT. #blacksky
It’s bad enough how many losses there have been in federal jobs, but the private sector should be ashamed of itself for being complicit in this process.

From a good friend in Minneapolis: "Target is allowing ICE to stage in their parking lots, use their restrooms, and abduct people from inside their stores - so if you weren’t boycotting already, now is the time." They were staging in Chicago as well.

We are far past the stage of permissiveness with white-supremacist violence inside DHS. We are witnessing ICE transition into a death squad.

This cannot be reformed. The only question is who will fight to abolish it, and who will accommodate it instead.
Either ICE Is Abolished or It Will Kill Many More Renee Goods
Minnesota is just the beginning of ICE's transformation into a right-wing death squad. But it can be the end

Wondering how I did it?

I boiled water and added two tablespoons of vinegar, baking soda, and lemon juice.

I soaked it for 20 minutes, and after that, it looked the same, so I bought a brand new one.

The reactionary centrist logic is simple: if the left does something bad it’s the left’s fault, and if the right does something bad, it’s also the left’s fault for making them do it. It’s a simple formula and once you see it every one of their arguments is the same

Democrats will continue to vote for Republican judges (like this guy, who refused to say who won the 2020 election) until Democrats are punished for voting for Republican judges
Alexander Van Hook is confirmed 53-40 to be a District Judge of Western Louisiana. According to @senatepress.bsky.social, the Dems yeas are Dick Durbin (IL), Maggie Hassan (NH), Tim Kaine (VA), Amy Klobuchar (MN), Jeanne Shaheen (NH), and Peter Welch (VT). Angus King (I-ME) was also a yea.

Remembering today that having your heart broken is a necessary step on the path to becoming fully human. Whichever heartbreak is your first, it’s probably critical that a state break your heart so that you can develop a political imagination. If this is your first, I’m sorry and also welcome.

Right after Renée Good’s disgusting murder, a ICE goon was filmed kicking her memorial candles.
Absolutely vile.

Today taps into the core problem much older than ICE. There's the obvious visceral fear of being hurt by agents of the state---but it's also having to live daily life alongside and in total deference to armed people who could kill you, lie to justify it, get away with it, and be celebrated for it.

It was not "domestic terrorism.” It was state sanctioned violence.

A family will forever live with the pain caused by the admin's reckless and deadly actions.

Abolishing ICE is not enough. They must be held accountable.

An all timer of bad messaging and horrible horrible timing, as ICE murdered one of Amy’s constituents at about the same time this went out.
The White House is laser focused on threatening a military takeover of Greenland.

Where’s the same focus on lowering costs?

Today is one of those days where I’m struck anew by how *bad* the internet has gotten. It’s almost unusable. Clouds, apps, advertising — nothing is where it should be and it’s nigh impossible sometimes to do basic tasks online.

Between his CNN interview and his new tweets, Stephen Miller has now come out for unshackled American imperialism underwritten by assumed western civilizational supremacy. His relitigation of 1965 immigration act (which I wrote about) are functionally a way to call for some species of recolonization
Stephen Miller also very plainly believes he's awakening Kipling's Saxons from their Jewish hypnosis. He's just figured out a slightly more disguised way of saying it
