The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.
The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.
The fact is that the supporters of this regime will NEVER accept/admit they’re supporting, at best, an unserious person whose administration will do harm to this country for generations. I’ve given up trying. The mental gymnastics and cognitive dissonance are too strong.
With the news this morning, the reality is that I’m once again disappointed. Disappointed because I believe it still won’t matter. We’ve all seen this movie before, but plenty of people are pretending the reboot will somehow be different.
Terrible movie with terrible characters and you don’t want to root for any of them. The fact that people find this romantic explains so much about our society.
Days like today are when I really miss my mom. Because all the energy spent on trying to make the world a better place and feeling like it’s still getting worse… I could use some sort of pep talk. To say that, even if it doesn’t feel like it, it will get better and it’s worth the fight.
Speaker Johnson has literally said he's "not promising anyone anything."
For once, I believe him.
I know that guy!!!
"The man who is not yet mayor is to blame for a shooting that happened under the watch of an ex-cop mayor who's thrown every available dollar at the NYPD," insists sex pest
Those people are terrible and need a life.

I’m also hearing the same thing… directly from many of those people
Agreed. I’m really looking forward to living in some normal, boring times. But I’m also not sure that’s ever going to happen.
In his campaign for Gov, Bob Fergusom promised to "stand up for working families and the most vulnerable in our state." Instead, he's fighting to preserve Washington's 2nd-in-the-nation most regressive tax code. Join our mass state worker rally on 4/9 at Olympia. #WaLeg #WashingtonForAll #TaxTheRich
We are at a tipping point… we will either stand up and legitimately fight back (none of this performative bullshit the left usually does) or we submit and live out our days as peasants in service to our feudal masters. I’m ready… are the rest of you?
She was exploited by every corporation, government entity, religious institution… they stole her labor, her energy, her time… and when she was of no further use to them, they cast her aside like garbage. Coupled with everything going on in the world… what’s the point? Will it ever get better?
I’ve spent the last six days cleaning out my mom’s house… and it’s so fucking depressing. But not just because of grief, but because it’s a reminder of the broken system we live under. This was a woman who worked her ass off, played by all the rules, did everything asked of her… and nothing worked.
Most everyone agrees that every single DOC reentry center in Washington is needed.
Yet both the House, the Senate and Governor Bob Ferguson have proposed closing them.
Let's make the rich start paying taxes before we skimp on public safety, @governorferguson.bsky.social.

Why is everyone so shocked Pikachu that the Fox News guy, who is covered in Nazi tattoos and assaults women, is completely incompetent and a terrible human? Why are we surprised that anyone in this fascist regime is absolute hot garbage? I’m not.
We are truly in the dumbest timeline… and now I’m like “will
I die from measles? E. Coli? Plane crash? Bridge collapse? Executed for standing up to the fascist regime?”
Jeffrey Goldberg thinking he was being pranked and then realizing he was actually just in the war plans group chat is such a good microcosm of how it feels to be alive right now, everything seems fake until you realize it’s actually real and incredibly stupid
Every day is shut the fuck up Friday for Chuck Schumer
Come join us to demand a #WashingtonForAll!
Good lord. WE WANT DISRUPTIONS.
I’m not 100% convinced that the machines didn’t wipe out humanity during COVID and this is just a broken matrix. Or we’re in a torture purgatory, like in The Good Place.
Did you ever watch the TV show “The Good Place?” The Good Place Committee is today’s Democratic Party… evil demons running around destroying everything and they’re obsessed with “process” and strongly worded letters!
Check the date… you all knew exactly what he was going to do, and you let him. I hope it haunts all of you until the end of days.
The lawsuits and holding up appointments are definitely something. But it’s not enough. The working class needs to organize and get to work. Slowdowns. General strike. Work to rule. We need job actions at every worksite across the country. Show them who actually keeps society going. Hint… we do!
Oh look. A President, a Governor, a Mayor - all at the crash site at the Chesapeake Bay with first responders. Not swimming. Showing empathy and leadership.
Along those lines… so glad all the fucking Seattle Dems and Shasti pushed out Hilary Franz in favor of Bob (because she was TOO conservative?)… who is now governing to the RIGHT of ACTUAL Republican governors.
We have huge majorities in both houses and every statewide elected office, yet they refuse to do fuck all for the working class.
BTW… I’m strongly considering releasing some of our endorsement interviews to publicly call out certain politicians who’ve turned on us less than a week into their term.
