She attempted to *!LL members of the previous cabinet but, hey, who can argue with top brass grey coats in our American union that this is how taxpayer money should be blown?

Every day it blows my mind how Rubio, the son of naturalized refugees from a despotic regime, grew up to become founder of a despotic regime that would have incarcerated his parents and stolen resources from his own mouth, had it happened 40years earlier

Highest rated, meaning highest polled? They, like Gavin, are the warriors gaining ground but just like Gavin, wouldn’t be 2028 candidates. We’re rudderless in tumultuous seas. If we can’t come to terms that a great people leader isn’t a vestry-white soul, we’ll continue to get hit with rogue swells

Endless triangulation=indecisive leadership. No one wants more Schumers. Strategic triangulation, however, is how GOP packed SCOTUS, and Project 2025 became our social policy. Authoritarianism doesn’t happen overnight, but with strategic gains. We’d do well to note this in our progressive response

There should not be this much joking from someone so adamantly sure he’s a victim. Victims tend to be traumatized, not preparing for their Netflix standup special. That’s how we know he’s no victim, and that he’s not joking.

While one can personally believe trans individuals deserve every protection and validation of their being that the Constitution can afford any other citizen, if a Democratic polestar plays the middle ground, the consequence of loss of support is more MAGA, aka a deferment of Constitution altogether
