Years ago I wrote this essay, and the clamor for compromise and one-sided pandering marches on, and of course David Brooks is a standard-bearer in the parade. As Jamelle Bouie notes, what if they are Nazis?

"Jon Ossoff, my advice to him is, if you start calling your political opponents Nazis, maybe it's time to shut up. That's just not what we do here in this country." -- David Brooks, this evening. Remember, Brooks still gets very handsomely rewarded by the fossilized media for saying shit like this

Here is some great Democratic messaging created by a group of activists that designed signs in red with simple and yet devastating anti-Republican messaging. You can order the signs on-line.

Louisiana, Alabama, and Arkansas are suing states with shield laws, which provide immunity to health professionals who deliver legal abortion care, in an effort to prevent citizens of their handmaiden's tale states from being able to seek an abortion in another state.

"To Elisabeth Frost, chair of the litigation department at Elias Law Group [...] the lawsuits seeking to force states to turn over their voter rolls show an administration that is 'obsessed with getting voter data in any way, shape or form it can.'”

With this monopolized media empire comes not just size but unprecedented power. The power to throw workers under the bus. The power to price-gouge because consumers have few alternatives. The power to decide which stories get told, but more importantly, which stories DON'T get told.

Tks Marc! Using a drop-box again. (CO is great about emailing confirmation.) My dad - full of quiet strength & integrity- worked for the USPS for 34 years. Hope to think that most of the postal workers there are still fighting the good fight. What I see of the postal union confirms that it is....

🚨 BREAKING NEWS: A federal judge just HALTED the destruction of Big Bend. This is a massive victory for the landowners, local communities, and everyday Texans who stood up to protect one of our state's greatest treasures. The fight isn't over, but today, the people won.

Graphic from the Center for Biological Diversity over a scenic view of Big Bend. Large text reads, “MASSIVE WIN FOR BIG BEND.” Below, it says a federal judge has frozen all destruction throughout the Big Bend region until the project’s legality can be determined in court. The graphic adds that the Center will continue fighting to save Big Bend and asks supporters to join them.

Zohran Mamdani explains his definition of socialism to Theo Von: “Socialism to me means you’ll have whatever you need to live a dignified life and that it is the government’s job to deliver on that. When people say dignity we’re talking about the things that allow you to take a

I can't disagree. However, I will add that decisions made about what vehicles are produced here are more made by various CEOs and corporate in collusion with each other, partly from the same small group of people being on those boards.

A list we personally blocked would be a nice tool. My account -a while back-ended up on a general blocklist labeled as a maga-type group. I had followed/blocked folks on 1 of those before I realized what was happening...someone was nefariously creating lists w/ fake 'bad' accounts & adding us.
