I want to extend my warmest and most urgent congratulations to President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva on his monumental and deeply important victory in Brazil. This election was not just a win for the people of Brazil, but a historic triumph for the working class, marginalized-

Don’t become numb to this. It’s disgusting and dangerous racism and if Rogers wins next month it’ll only escalate.
Sick, sick stuff.

"I don't give a damn."
That's Trump's message to Americans while they have spent $100 billion MORE on gas while Big Oil rakes in record profits.
The rich get richer while you suffer.

Our movement is fighting for a Providence that works for everyone, with an agenda focused on affordability, education, protecting our immigrant neighbors, and celebrating all that makes our city special 🫶🏽✨
TRUMP on HIGH GAS PRICES: We’re making money like we’ve never made before. They’ll say: President Trump is bragging about all the money they're making while people are suffering at the pump. I don’t give a damn. We’re making a freaking fortune.

Me: "Even if it was unpopular, are you saying the Democratic Party should not speak out against the president sending migrants who have committed no crimes to be tortured in a foreign gulag?"
@mattyglesias: "Yeah."
Me: "Just stay silent?"
Yglesias: "I think that sometimes, if you want to help people... you gotta win first."
Me: "They might be dead in three years time, by the time you win."
Despite all the arguments on this hellsite over the exact number of his Piker tweets, this was the part of my interview with Matthew Yglesias that really stood out to me. I was actually stunned by this response. Shouldn't politics also stand for something more than triangulation, polling and 4-D chess strategizing?

He’s a fucking racist and there should literally be no debate about it.
This is racism. Plain and simple.

I’ve never witnessed someone so energetically tie themselves into knots in the service of an overriding commitment to being obviously and stupidly wrong.

Matt Yglesias says people in Minneapolis shouldn't have risen up against ICE.
This worldview is not just cruel and amoral -- it's also deeply divorced from how political change happens. It’s kindergarten-level magical thinking, dressed up as hardnosed realism.

The pedophile protection party’s president is laundering right-wing conspiracy theories through the most corrupt DOJ in American history.
Whenever the news turns bad, this creep reaches for one name: mine. So let’s make it crystal clear. My name has always been Ilhan Omar.
Maybe you should focus on what your VP’s real name is.

Help get @abdulelsayed elected to the senate! Jewish safety depends on a real multiracial democracy—and Abdul is the one fighting to protect it.

We know how much it matters to live in a country where our rights are protected, where the law applies equally to everyone, and where the majority can’t just decide that some people don’t deserve the same freedoms. The safety and freedom we’ve found in America didn’t happen by accident. They exist because of democracy. And protecting democracy means protecting Jewish safety, too.
We know what happens when those protections start to break down. When courts are weakened, elections are undermined, and people lose equal protection under the law, minorities are often the first to pay the price. Jews have seen this throughout our history. It’s one of the reasons so many of our families sought refuge in democratic countries.
That’s why I find it so alarming to see what’s happening right now. When masked government agents are taking people off the streets and citizens are being shot in public, we should all be worried about where things are headed. As Jews, we know that when a government starts targeting certain groups of people, no one should assume they’re safe from what comes next.
Mike Rogers has chosen to align himself with a movement that is willing to attack our democracy. He stood with Trump and refused to accept the results of the 2020 election. And now we’re seeing what happens when a political movement treats the rights and dignity of certain people as disposable. For Jews, these things should set off alarm bells.
Jewish safety is tied to the health of our democracy. We can’t protect one without protecting the other. And in this Senate race, Abdul is the candidate who understands that and is willing to fight for it.

No RIer can watch this video of a man trying to keep his children safe & think the actions of these federal agents are acceptable.
Surely we can acknowledge that traumatizing toddlers on the streets of Providence is a betrayal of our values as Americans.

I’ve been detained by the IDF, along with a group of rabbis & volunteers. We were simply harvesting olives in a grove near Nehalim in the West Bank.
The occupation is a crime under international law. Harvesting olives isn’t a crime under any law I know.

republicans have been calling their opponents terrorists and pedophiles up and down the country but ofc dana bash takes issue with this pro palestine democrat telling his opponent to shut up. what are these double standards?!
BASH: There was a protester during your debate with Susan Collins. She responded by saying 'this must be a Troy Jackson supporter' and you told the senator 'shut up.' Do you regret saying that?
TROY JACKSON: No. I'm not going to be talked down to by Sen. Collins. I'm not going to apologize for that, no.
