Republicans vigorously defended Kyle Rittenhouse when he murdered two people with an AR15, but they wanted Hunter Biden to go to jail over lying on a form.
The fact that Republicans will just switch positions whenever it benefits them is why I think Biden's pardon was justified.
I firmly believe that Democratic politicians like AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Pete Buttigieg, and others who can communicate messaging while not sounding like politicians are the future of our party.
Bluesky has undoubtedly become the No. 1 place to read breaking news, if not for the simple fact that Twitter suppresses outside links and Bluesky doesn't. I hope more reporters join soon!
I want to take a moment today to remember the 26 beautiful lives who were lost 12 years ago today, at Sandy Hook Elementary.
In the face of an unthinkable tragedy, many of the survivors have honored those who we’ve lost with action.
We will end gun violence in our lifetime thanks to their efforts.
Happening now in Boston!! A massive anti-Trump rally calling for an end to Elon’s coup and billionaires controlling our government. This is AMAZING to see.
👋For those who don’t know me, let me introduce myself.
My name is Sam Schwartz and I’m 20 years old. I became involved in politics after my cousin Alex was killed in the Parkland shooting. (That’s us below).
Now, I fight to end gun violence. Give me a follow if you’re with me!
Trump is not even president yet and he has threatened to invade Mexico, take over the Panama Canal, and annex Canada.
Still no word on how he will lower the price of eggs yet.
The White House is pulling Elise Stefanik’s nomination because they know they’re about to lose control of the House.
They are sweating over a deep red R+20 district.
Never in my life have I seen something more repulsive than what Trump and Vance just did to Zelenskyy in the Oval.
Lecturing someone who is defending his country from a brutal dictator while siding with Putin at every opportunity.
Just absolutely shameful in every way.
If we’re making Greenland and Canada U.S. states, why don’t we also add Puerto Rico and Washington DC?
If you need some good news- the NRA is bleeding cash and members.
They’ve liquidated $45M and nearly all of its assets.
It’s about damn time!
Genuinely unreal turnout in Boston for the #HandsOff2025 rally.
Americans are taking to the streets in a MASSIVE protest against Trump/Musk.
2026 is going to be a reckoning.
MAGA went from “no new wars” to “let’s take over the entire continent of North America” in the span of about a month.
Cory Booker is displaying true leadership right now, and every elected Democrat needs to be meeting this moment like this.
This is NOT business as usual and your actions need to reflect that.
The Trump Administration has officially closed the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention.
This is a crushing blow to all the significant and historic work we've made over the last 4 years.
Biden's work on guns has saved thousands of lives- the Trump admin is trying to reverse that.
Starting today, Democrats should start messaging that Republicans are only fighting for billionaires, CEOs, and corporations.
We should not wait until "election season."
I believe this is a strong, simple, and cohesive message that every American can get behind.
I firmly believe that Democratic politicians like AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Pete Buttigieg, and others who can communicate messaging while not sounding like politicians are the future of our party.
We have a very deep bench of qualified and amazing Democrats that could seek higher office.
The key is, we need to be investing in liberal media to support these people and make sure we can spread their message!
Otherwise, it’ll be a repeat of 2024.
A convicted felon is about to be the president.
The guy who staged a coup on the U.S. government is about to become president.
We need to keep saying it, because this can’t become our “normal.”
