It’s Reagan’s fault he/him

This 🧵 is a case study of elected Democrats doing something good, failing to grab the attention of a corporate media stacked against them, and then getting blamed by left wing journalists for not doing anything. We don’t just need a bigger left wing media ecosystem, we need a better one.

A simple Google search says Jamie Raskin, Richard Blumenthal, & Gary Peters all took oversight actions last year re treatment of Tate brothers. Then Yassamin Ansari wrote a letter on July 23--again more oversight. None of those efforts made Moira Donegan's July 27 column claiming Dems were "silent."

He’s doing insider trading as a subscription

"This insider-information scheme will enable Wall Street to profit from the president's frequent market-moving posts on major businesses and cash in on swings in stock prices caused by the president's buying and selling," Raskin says of a planned service by Trump's Truth Social.

“WE WILL GO THROUGH EVERY FUCKING FILE” is the energy I need from every elected Democrat, from now until they go through every fucking file

🖐️ This is me (and most of my Jewish relatives). Not here to be a human shield for anyone’s bigotry.

Chantal James

I can say from observation, a whole lot of actual Jewish folks are incredibly pissed about Zionists, many of them actually Christians, claiming Israel & genocide are supposed to represent them when they want nothing to do with it & it has zero to do with how they think of themselves as Jewish.

It’s not a crime if it’s something only the rich can commit

Only Half Joshing

We have really, as a society it seems, lost the plot on crime and corruption. Crime isn’t just rape, murder, arson and theft, somehow we have lost the plot on institutional corruption. Buying votes, million dollar *gifts* from corporations, favorable deals to children, that’s all criminal too!

Netanyahu wants “to manufacture a security emergency ahead of the October 27 election” to take the focus off October 7, the last security emergency he tacitly encouraged. An endless cycle of violence. It’s all so bleak.

Josh Marshall

key point here. letting the west bank burn and the most violent settlers run amok is basically an electoral movement by Netanyahu. us18.campaign-archive.com?e=f77fda7ddf...

I love this metaphor of the rabbit and the snake. Hollywood loves making Serious Films About Rabbits, just as long as a snake is the protagonist

Rebecca Solnit

Ever since I sat through Phantom Stitch, I've thought that so many movies are about the wrong person, but Hollywood male directors think any man with power is inherently interesting and they're wrong. Of course the rabbit has to watch the snake but the snake can still be boring.

When Elon says “remigration”, he means ethnic cleansing. (He sure as hell isn’t talking about “remigrating” himself back to South Africa.) He’s literally calling for ethnic cleansing and directing violence at anyone who stands in the way. We can’t let this be socially acceptable.

Sunder Katwala (sundersays)

Elon Musk's politics are indistinguishable from Paul Golding of Britain First [except Britain First is more coded on violence, while Musk has been more openly pro-violence as inevitable, necessary, legitimate since Aug 2025] The main pro-Hitler YouTuber "Zoomer Historian" is encouraged.
