"…succumbing to a culturally manufactured ‘consensus of stupidity’ that could prove our ultimate undoing"
Curious as to how this plays out across cultures, not just Western countries.

I'm running against the number one threat to our democracy, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and we're gaining momentum.
Our campaign enters its next phase. Can I count on you to chip in to ensure we have the resources to reach every single voter in every corner of the district and retire MTG? (Link in bio)

If we weren’t distracted by an oligarch funded pseudo-revolution by MAGA, we could have a real revolution against the plutocrats who are running this country.

There is a religious war in our country. Patriarchal christofascism vs. the rest of us. Not angry here. Furious.

Detroit received $826 million through the American Rescue Plan Act in 2021, and in 2023, the city allocated a small slice of the money to a handful of community-based programs working to reduce gun violence in the neighborhoods that suffered from it the most

Steven Beschloss @StevenBeschlossThink your vote doesn’t matter? AZ AG Kris Mayes, who just announced the indictment of fake electors and the WH advisors (including the despicable Rudy Guiliani), won by 280 votes. There’d be no indictment or investigation if Democrat Mayes lost.01:08 AM - Apr 25, 2024

Just a thought: If a president violated the Espionage Act, all of his Supreme Court picks should automatically be removed and replaced.

Related: if TFG is found not immune and convicted, all of his Justices are suspect, right? So isn’t their judgement already compromised and they should recuse themselves, because otherwise they are just protecting their own asses, not interpreting law for the nation?

Apropos “Happy Birthday Melania”: Trump and his Slovenian escort spent years calling for Obama’s birth certificate. I am calling for her immigration papers. How did she get an “Einstein” visa for extraordinary abilities, despite her blatant lie under oath about college degrees?

A little reminder for all those who, strangely enough, always think it’s a good idea to interview him: Bill Barr was the Attorney General Donald Trump wanted because Jeff Sessions wasn’t servile enough.

Absolutely. But why stop short of naming the traitor to democracy who allowed this: Garland. These insurrectionists shd have been investigated, indicted, tried immediately.

The US is right to agonize over 45. If he wins Putin's threats will no longer be empty as 45 would sell us out in a heartbeat.
