"American innovation" now refers to making a kind of atrocity cronut by combining insider trading with war crimes.

Hi Bluesky - I'm Massachusetts' Attorney General. You might know me from suing President Trump nearly 50 times, beating Uber and Lyft in court, or being the first woman of color elected to statewide office in MA.

I officially left X today - help me find my MA people?

Worry, Don't Panic, Over Trump's Efforts to Subvert the Elections America's system is quite foolproof but he can still try to delegitimize it

His attacks on the midterms are real and dangerous… and aren’t going to work. Running down the case for an optimistic threat assessment @theunpopulist.net :

This would disenfranchise me as it requires voting in person for foreign residents, including active service people stationed outside the US. You better BELIEVE I’m making noise about it!

Time to call your Senators and tell them they must oppose this blatant voter suppression tactic.

(202) 224-3121

This doesn’t solve an actual problem. It creates an(other) utter lack of accountability for those currently holding office.

Melt their phones.

The SAVE Act just passed. Every vote for the SAVE Act was a vote to disenfranchise Americans.

call congress to reject the SAVE Act!

The SAVE Act, at its core, aims to disenfranchise voters and undermine U.S. democracy.

My own experience, which is not inconsiderable, allows me to put out Captain Dan's Tear Gas Laundry guidelines.

Specifically, this is for your street clothing that has been exposed to tear gas in smoke/aerosol/dust/particulate form.

Turning Points and Authoritarian Escalations

Is America’s descent into autocracy accelerating or is the Trump regime struggling to break through the democratic defenses?

In Minneapolis, the tenets of the white nationalist worldview are being refuted.

Some thoughts from my new piece:

We recommend avoiding general and often dehumanizing "the" labels such as the poor, the mentally ill, the French, the disabled, the college-educated. Instead, use wording such as people with mental illnesses. And use these descriptions only when clearly relevant.

Can't say too many times: Bolts and @taniel.bsky.social are really the best thing to happen to political reporting in the last decade at least. This stuff matters so much and gets so little attention.

I keep thinking about the number of people that have to be involved to kidnap a small child, transport him to one facility or another, then an airport, then a plane, then another facility. Did no one on that chain stop and say hey what the fuck?
