For a land of shooters, Americans really suck at shooting.

This is a pitch perfect response from @aoc.bsky.social -- she mocks their whining, she brings the receipts and then she uses this move as a sign that Democrats are moving to offense now.

Reporter: What do you make of Republicans saying that Virginia— AOC: Wah wah wah. We have asked Republicans for 10 years to ban partisan gerrymandering. And for 10 years, Republicans have said no. What they’re just mad at is that they have been accustomed to a Democratic Party that rolls over.

If you show up to this, you deserve the humiliation

Anyone who shows up for this travesty is knowingly choosing to act as a prop for authoritarian kabuki because they’re too cowardly or amoral to pass up vapid schmoozing and free drinks. They deserve your contempt, and possibly a few pieces of rotting produce.

If you really want to see the Green Party have an extraordinary election - then you have to go out and vote. There's too many close calls where it's Labour Vs Green - time to show Starmer the door and end Rip Off Britain. greenparty.org.uk/get-involved...

Turkish FM Hakan Fidan says Israel may seek to designate Turkiye as a new adversary after Iran. He also said Iran and the US remain 'sincere' about reaching a ceasefire despite no deal in Pakistan-mediated talks. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.news/czjcze

This is like watching a liberal dad explain to his incel son why hating women because they're women is wrong

How is any country still having diplomatic relationships with let alone selling weapons to Israel?

THREAD. This single headline in the NYT contains two outrageous claims reported as fact: 1) Vance "tried" to end the war; and 2) he "opposed" it. Neither is supported, but the thing to understand is: why is lying about the *intention* of powerful people so key to propaganda?

a functional press would explain to the reader that these are all propagandists and rank opportunists who hold no real fixed values outside of the pursuit of wealth, attention, and white supremacy

Pretty wild that basically every DNC pundit and insider has been spending the past week debating if "Hasan too far left for the left" while the fascist pedophile president is openly announcing genocide

I can't tell if Tucker Carlson's game plan is just getting attention or if he's running for President, but I do know he is an opportunistic engagement parasite with no fixed beliefs suddenly pretending they weren't central to bringing us to this moment

The fact that nobody seriously believes there is an institution in this country that will check the president—that we’re all just sitting here hoping that he gets distracted and fails to follow through on his genocidal threats—is the most damning indictment of our political system I’ve seen yet.

Can't tell you how many members of Congress who *at best* had nothing to say when I asked about the Minab girls school attack. There is a profanely cold detachment inside Capitol Hill, a mode completely unrecognizable to common human decency I wish I could properly convey to you.

Read this lede from the NYT - Netanyahu in the Situation Room, Trump not sitting at the head of the table, etc - & then tell me again how antisemitic it is to dare suggest that Israel has undue influence over our government & helped push us into this war of choice. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/07/u...

Hey everyone, in the heat of things, I originally saw this quote in a piece in the Nation, and their quote has since been updated to specify that it was specific to Joy Reid, Michelle Obama, etc. But Kirk’s clearly anti-black statements speak for themselves: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
