Opening our National Parks to private developers is a red line we cannot cross.

I’m fighting to protect Yosemite and put an end to the administration’s brazen efforts to put profit above one of our most iconic parks.

The fact that the Democratic senators are agreeing to a continuing resolution until Dec 11th with NO compromises for them is absolute political malpractice and head scratching.

Why not even try to ban like…. The arch? Anything!

@bsky.app @support.bsky.team @safety.bsky.app Please rethink your ban on Popehat @kenwhite.bsky.social He's one of the best accounts here. Frankly, the fact you've banned him makes me question being on this site—I've followed him for years here & on Twitter & never seen him post anything banworthy.

As someone who has been flying for years, I can tell you that over the past few years, the entire experience has gotten worse.

More delays, more unreliable aircraft, worse service.

A great microcosm of America's enshittification. Meanwhile, the airline CEOS all make $$$.

Why is anyone debating whether or not to “let Marjorie Taylor Greene into the tent”?

She has not asked to be in a tent with you. Nothing indicates that she wants to be in it. She is positioning herself to appeal to people who hate your tent, and possibly to peel off a few people at the edges of it.

For all those who think Dems should rule out impeachment if we re-take the House in Nov because Trump won't be convicted...you have short memories. Trump was impeached before the 2020 election and then he lost. Hearings and investigations matter. Airing the truth matters. The Constitution matters.

Trump is not fluent in any language, including English
Trump: After I'm finished with this, I can go to Venezuela. I will quickly learn Spanish. It won't take too long. I'm good at language, and I will go to Venezuela. I'm gonna run for president.

November is Native American Heritage Month, and I’m honored to represent a state with such a rich history influenced by indigenous communities. Arizona’s 22 federally-recognized tribes each bring unique contributions to our culture, and our state wouldn’t be the same without them.

This is Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY). He wants to repeal the Affordable Care Act. Over 63,000 of his constituents to lose health insurance, if the ACA was repealed.

RETWEET to let New York know that RepMikeLawler wants to take away their health care!

We are bailing out Argentina while Argentina’s farmers sell soybeans to China in the place of American farmers which is putting them out of business, so now we also have to bail out American farmers while Argentinian farmers make bank.

According to Tom Homan, for the crime Tom Homan allegedly committed, Tom Homan should have his citizenship stripped away and be renditioned to a foreign prison without receiving due process in the courts.

Sorry, Tom Homan, but those are Tom Homan's rules.

It would be great if he would resign on his own, but we're calling on our elected officials to *impeach and remove* him. I would love it if our elected officials would stop being passive and instead take *action*

I know these “interviews” with Justice Barrett are carefully scripted. But if she’s going to keeping urging Americans to “read the opinions,” and not just commentary, it sure would be nice if someone would ask her what we should do when—as is so often the case these days—there’s no opinion to read…
