She could have had a long and useful career in the House. I think she got out over her skis.

I wanted Porter to win for Senate (Schiff is too corporate for me), and I've been equivocating between her and Swalwell. My income is nowhere near 100K, and this idea strikes even me as nonserious.
Swalwell it is then.

This is on every Senator who voted to confirm Hegseth.
I’m as liberal as they get it but I will support the right’s demand that people who engage in or incite terrorism on US soil should lose their citizenship and be deported BUT on one condition. That is we begin with every MAGA terrorist involved in Jan 6 starting with trump. Deal?
He should be primaried - if only because 1) he's maneuvering to hand off the seat to his child which seems undemocratic, and 2) Jeffries dangled a leadership position to him, meaning he'll support Jeffries for Speaker which, gah, Jeffries has been so spirit quashing as Dem leader.
And RCV would solve the horrific situation in the loathsome jungle primary in California that might structurally allow a runoff between two candidates for governor whom the voters DO NOT WANT and block out candidates they'd prefer to those two.
another illustration of why ranked choice voting is better. Here, the majority isn't going to Stevens, the establishment choice, but it's being split between the other two.
RCV allows voters to vote for their favorite and still have a fallback vote to block who they DO NOT WANT.
one of many reasons I've conflated Israel with MAGA in my brain.
NCIS Sydney is my guilty pleasure. I know it's dumb, but I like it anyway.
I thought we stopped using leeches in medical care.
In 2024 disaffected Dem focus groups: "in 2020 you told us to turn out to protect our freedoms, we did and still the bad shit happened anyway. Now you're telling us that same thing again?" 2025: "Dems say 'fire, fire, fire' but then don't want to break down the door to rescue us from building."
Is it "explosively controversial" that bank robbers act like they own all the money in the banks?
Tech asshats must be taught that they don't own everything that exists and aren't allowed to chew it up and spit it out at their whim.
I think the fact you care shows what a good mom you are :) Also, can you ask your kids what they think? They might be proud of your amazingness.
Simple joys. Hurray for Prop 50! It's so wonderful to go from being represented by the Odious Kevin Kiley to this guy.
"it's more fun" says the sadistic psychopath
I'm sure Jack Tapper is writing his book on Trump's mental decline right now. Right?
Not surprised. You seem to have too much integrity to work for CBS in its current iteration.
Here’s something you might not know if you’re not super rich.
Today is the day that people who make $1 million a year stop paying into Social Security.
Working people pay all year, but the rich get a break.
Lift the cap and pull millions of seniors out of poverty.
If you're still caucusing with the Republican Party as an independent (which is what he's doing), then that means you're still a Republican
Well said, Congresswoman Clark. Thank you.
Andy Ogles doesn't belong in public service.
Trump's getting Trumped by Netanyahu.
ooh good to know. I've been thinking about watching that.
Steyer is a gadfly, and there's no accounting for him.
But Becerra is a responsible public servant, and I hope he'll consider that for him and this race, it would be better to retreat and fight another day.
Heh. But then, that would assume that AI has agency. If it can be blamed, it should be able to take responsibility.
So I think it comes back to the people who choose to use it - instead of a thinking, human, responsible mind - to make decisions.
