Like most Americans, for whom Randy Fine is dripping with contempt, I have no college degree. I wear it not as a mark of shame but as a badge of honor. I grew up in poverty and overcame depression and substance abuse to rise to the US Congress. You call that failure. Others…
I’m a rare Democrat who will choose a painful truth over a beautiful lie. The truth is: the global order is breaking down. America’s future holds more conflict, not less. The truth is: our approach to race and gender is alienating voters. The truth is: we are out of touch with…
If you think @cenkuygur didn't know he "accidentally" named his company after the perpetrators of the Armenian genocide then I've got a bridge to sell you
Abundance and cultural moderation with respect is the winning Democratic Party formula.
I wrote the case for Abundance Democrats to engage in the debate over cultural issues — a key part of the left-populist pitch inside the coalition is the false promise that populist economics will let you get away being out of touch on values issues.
During August recess, Speaker Johnson and Leader Thune plan to call the House and Senate into session every four or five days, with practically no one there, for the sole purpose of preventing Trump from making recess appointments. Here was today’s House “pro-forma” session:
Israel, led by the extreme right wing Netanyahu, needs to end its out of control, abusive and deadly war. Hamas needs to be done away with and its corrupt reign of abuse and terror on the Palestinian people needs to end.
If you think the two sides of the political spectrum shouldn't talk or ever say they agree on any issue (even if they actually do agree), you're going to hate this conversation. If you want Epstein Files released and end funding for Israel's genocide, you'll probably love it.
Thank you.
An Obama-backed Biden 2016 campaign still would've lost to Hillary in the Democratic primary. Biden contended in 2017 that he would've run and perfected Bernie's populist campaign but he never did in his 1988, 2008, 2020 or 2024 runs x.com/DrPresleyFan/s…
Biden LUCKED into the 2020 nomination and damn near lost even with Covid and Floyd happening. Hillary was a better politician who DID NOT have the benefit of four years of Trump to run on.

If Islam is so great, why do Muslims flee to Western countries?
Sometimes I wonder if younger or newcomer San Franciscans are fully aware of one the most mind-bending SF corruption scandals of all time. I'm currently on summer break and have a little time to go through details. So, let's dive into the world of... Leland Yee. Buckle up 🧵
One of the underdiscussed reasons Asians shifted GOP in the city was this.
BREAKING: The NY Fire Prevention & Building Code Council just voted to codify the All-Electric Buildings Act into the state building codes. This is a huge moment for NY, as we lead the nation towards decarbonizing our building stock. 1/
We always knew they were just as bigoted. It’s now fully exposed due to social media.
I think this is an example of how wrong the 00's-10's predictions that the "browning of America" will usher in an era of racial harmony. We are about to learn that brown people are as bigoted and hateful as anyone else.
There is a mass literacy crisis, so maybe you "read" that I was "casually dismissing 'the suffering of a stateless population' as irrelevant" but that is most certainly not what I said. I said Hamas's "cause" was conflated w/ their suffering. Hamas does not care about suffering.
Do I read you casually dismissing "the suffering of a stateless population" as irrelevant? The policies of Israel's government toward Gaza handed Hamas the basis for recruiting both external funding and foot soldiers. And calling the Palestinians stateless is a bit inaccurate.
It doesn’t matter how rich the rich get. The poor in capitalist countries are still better off by far than the poor in socialist countries.
The number one reason I don’t think Bubba did anything wrong: Hillary and Chelsea would have cut him LOOSE if he had. She hit him with a vase and didn’t talk to him for months after Monica. There’s no going back with underaged girls.
The Republican Party is no longer a normal political party. It has become a cult of personality around their lord and savior: Donald Trump. The loyalty of Republicans lies not with the working people of America but with a false god.
Here’s how it’s about to go down: Ghislaine names a bunch of Democrats, maybe tosses in a few billionaires. She says Trump did nothing wrong. MAGA praises her for “taking down the pedophiles.” Trump pardons her… for “telling the truth.”
