Merriweather Post Pavilion 6/30/1985. I was there! (… or at least a previous version of me was.) My sons got me this limited edition 4 LP vinyl for my recent birthday. #NowPlaying #GratefulDead #vinyl #SummerMagic1985

The fuck?

McGovern: Buried in this bill is a corrupt kickback for eight Republican senators, a million dollar payday funded by taxpayers, taken from the treasury and deposited directly into their pockets. What the hell is wrong with this place?

Wait! But I just saw Trump on television last night say he doesn't know who this person is. At least he claims not to have heard the name in a very long time.

Who remains pissed off about what the DNC did to Bernie before the 2016 election? The only time in my life I voted Libertarian was because I was not about to vote for Hillary after the DNC fucked Bernie, and of course, not pussy-grabbing DJT. I remember. Has anything at the DNC changed?

Bernie Sanders has fought for working families since Day One. He's built a movement that is taking on corporate special interests and fighting for an economy that works for everyone. I'm proud to join that movement. I'm honored to have earned his endorsement of my campaign for US Senate.

The Trump Administration claims there is no tariff money. It's vanished, see?

Ron Filipkowski@ronfilipkowski.bsky.social

So he’s saying all the tariff money we took in is gone and we won’t be able to pay it back. There was always a possibility he could lose this lawsuit and have to refund the tariff money. We didn’t prepare for that possibility? He’s running the govt like he ran his casinos.

Democrats had won the shutdown narrative, with a majority of Americans blaming Republicans. These 8 have betrayed Democratic principles, and now the backlash from democrats and independents will be fierce. The 40-day shutdown will be seen as political theater, fucking with lives & gaining nothing.

Trump striving to remake America as Hungary. He thinks it is spelled Hungry.

incredible that these guys have a massive hard on for a country that, if it were a state, would rank behind kansas in terms of wealth and which would be a total backwater if it weren’t economically integrated with more functional countries

Democrats can stop digging for "effective messaging." Mamdani nailed it. And as Frank Sinatra sang of New York, "If I can make it there, I'll make it anywhere." If all America's billionaires wish to leave, don't let the door hit you on the way out. We don't need them. They need us!

Democrats must dissect the "Affordability" message into its components to fulfill its promise and make it more than a campaign theme. Affordability is more than lowering prices. It means serving the General Welfare by raising taxes on the ultra-wealthy and wages for workers to a true living wage.

Yes, and these results should signal to Puppet Speaker 'Mikey Mouse' Johnson to remove his Trump butt plug and call the House back in session. Seat Rep. Grijalva Release the Epstein Files Fully fund the ACA and Medicaid to reopen the government Or pack your bags and be run out of DC on a rail.

Dick Cheney serves as a reminder that standard GOP strategy is anti-democratic, based on controlling the least populated states, thereby manipulating the electoral college and the Senate. Had Cheney lived and run for office in even a mid-sized state, I doubt we'd have heard of him at all.

Speaker Mike "Sock Puppet" Johnson just laid out what should be the Democratic agenda for the next decade more convincingly than any of the current Democratic Party Leadership. I hope they are listening. I would ardently support that platform.

Mike Johnson: "Imagine a scenario where they were in charge and they didn't have the filibuster. We would have nationalized elections, they would infringe on our 2A rights, they'd pack the Supreme Court, and they'd make Puerto Rico and DC states."
