Has anyone asked him if democracy is the top issue yet?

Joe Kahn (May 2024)
It’s our job to cover the full range of issues that people have. At the moment, democracy is one of them. But it’s not the top one — immigration happens to be the top [of polls], and the economy and inflation is the second.

Joe Kahn (2024)

To say that the threats of democracy are so great that the media is going to abandon its central role as a source of impartial information to help people vote — that’s essentially saying that the news media should become a propaganda arm for a single candidate, because we prefer that candidate’s agenda.

Independent. NOT Democrat.

Bernie Sanders is serving his fourth term in the U.S. Senate after winning re-election in 2024. His previous 16 years in the House of Representatives make him the longest serving independent member of Congress in American history.

Hey @clarajeffery.bsky.social what is this dreck? Example: The link in the 1st sentence of this graf is a story about Bernie Sanders, WHO IS NOT A DEMOCRAT.

They did not rescind their endorsements when reports revealed Platner’s tattoo of a symbol used by Nazi paramilitary organizations, including Adolf Hitler’s SS police

Aozora@aozorasf· Jul 6

So I get frustrated because so many people refuse to understand why rigid gatekeeping of who can run for a seat in the US Senate is so goddam critical.

So I get frustrated because so many people are pouncing on Platner as an excuse to call for even more rigid gatekeeping of who can run. When he's an example of why we need more people from varied backgrounds running.

"Abolish" is not a synonym for "reform"

Screenshot from DSA 2021 platform:
Abolish USAID, NED, Voice of America, and other governmental agencies that cynically disguise capitalist control as aid and journalism

Did you even read the story that you clipped that from?

But when it comes to Israel, her detractors on the right see her as insufficiently supportive of the military campaign against the Hamas terror group and closer to the Democratic Party’s progressive wing, which has become increasingly critical of Israel. Critics of Israel on the left share that assessment of Harris — but see it as a positive.

"The main function of the majority and minority whips is to gather votes of their respective parties on major issues."

Wikipedia

The minority leader serves as floor leader of the opposition party, and is the minority counterpart to the speaker. The minority leader also speaks for the minority party in the House and its policies, and works to protect the minority party's rights.

The assistant majority leader and assistant minority leader of the House, commonly called whips, are the second-ranking members of each party's leadership. The main function of the majority and minority whips is to gather votes of their respective parties on major issues.

Hey @lmcgaughy.bsky.social The perpetrator pled guilty to assault. WTF is “alleged“ doing in this sentence?

James Talarico Attacks Ken Paxton Over Handling of Child Sex Abuse Case
The case, which resulted in a short jail sentence despite years of alleged abuse, has drawn outcry in Texas. So have the attempts to politicize it.

“More parts of chicken may be available.” I think that menu is mainly for non-Japanese guests. It’s been a while since I’ve been there but the clientele & staff are mostly Japanese. It’s the best I’ve had in the States.

Maybe the Center for Integrity in News Reporting should hire a proofreader.

The “reporter” uncritically regurgitated Republican lies. She should‘ve used the “truth sandwich“ to contain the smear campaign. If our constitutionally protected free press doesn’t get its shit together we are doomed. @daralind.bsky.social @titonka.bsky.social

I truly cannot believe this website is dunking on an article about the way the Republican Party in the Trump era wields masculinity as a weapon, written by a reporter who specializes in gender in politics, as if it is somehow parroting the GOP party line.

Boomers are people, but looking at that chart it’s pretty hard to see how it’s mathematically possible to arrive at an $8000 median.

Yes, it limits access to diversion. Personally, I’m ok with restricting access for someone convicted of human trafficking, among these other changes.

This bill would require the court to find that the defendant’s mental disorder was a significant factor in the commission of the offense only if the mental disorder had been diagnosed within 5 years of the current offense. The bill would add to the list of crimes for which a defendant is prohibited from being placed into a diversion program to include, among other things, attempted murder, kidnapping, carjacking, and human trafficking and would prohibit a defendant with 2 prior felonies or a prior offense under the Three Strikes provisions from being granted diversion.

Oooooh. She "apologized." Okie dokie.

Illiterate twits.

Why? For most people, the only way to see Antarctica is by getting on a cruise ship. So if seeing Antarctica is on your bucket list, you get on a cruise ship.

The ship left Ushuaia, Argentina, on March 20 carrying about 150 passengers, bound for Cape Verde by way of Antarctica, the Falkland Islands, South Georgia and a string of remote South Atlantic islands
