- every interview with this guy makes me tear up
- Pepe Mujica, the anarchist guerilla who became president of Uruguay, has passed on. He leaves behind as good a legacy as it's possible to leave. So it goes. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...

- Not about Mujica, but the novel Cantoras is about several lesbian women in Uruguay surviving the dictatorial regime before him, and helping shape the country with him after that.

- The Tupamaros guerrilla he lead would rob the Banks not for the Money, they got the archives. They later published the names and fortunes of some corrupt political leaders that showed themselves as middle class workers but had fortunes in the bank.
- Canada, meet your new Cabinet. This is a team that is empowered and expected to lead. Together, we will create a new economic and security relationship with the United States and build a stronger economy — the strongest economy in the G7.
- this would be the kind of scandal that demands resignation if these people had any commitment to public service!
- WTH man? Real World bro also serving as Transportation Sec Sean Duffy reportedly changed his wife's flight to avoid Newark and then went on TV to broadcast it's safe to fly in and out of Newark. @paleofuture.bsky.social w the details. ↘️

- my kingdom for anyone on the “dems should take culturally moderate positions” to explain what this actually means in practice? www.thebulwark.com/p/hard-calls...
- About that:
- I’ve said this so many times I’m nearly blue in the face, but even rural Democrats don’t want moderate policies. The only people calling for moderate policies are Republicans — Democrats get scared when they hear them say we should be more moderate. Don’t. Swing left. Swing hard.

- I spoke at an Empty Seat Townhall for Congressman Sam Graves in Marceline, Missouri, population 2K. Sam hasn’t met with constituents since 2012. He’s been in DC for 24 years. This group would like to send him home.

- I think it's important to note that John Ewing Jr. didn't just win in Omaha, he won big. www.wowt.com/2025/05/14/e...
- Little known fact that Grover Cleveland used to ride around the world in the Statue of Liberty and have sensitive national security discussions inside it, before taking possession of it himself after he left office.

- Who the fuck just starts shooting into a car because they're in front of your house?
- Just a reminder folks, that them white people come in 2 categories: 1. Sane 2. Batshit lunatics
- This is a very good question.
- Firing side shot into the yard: Lost privileges at the range I go to. Firing AT SOMEONE DOING WHAT YOU ASKED, hey - lose privileges to the whole outside for a while.
- I’ve seen too many gun nuts(not gun owners, there’s a difference) basically salivating about waiting for the day they have the tiniest bit of perceived justification for taking someone’s life.
- It's always a little dick Republican looking for an excuse. What a fucking pussy, scared of a burrito delivery. He should be in prison. #coward
- they’re transvestigating the new pope
- Hahahahaha oh my god. These people are so ridiculous.
- Public officials should not be able to make anonymous comments to the press. Stand by your words or fuck off. If they want to talk shit and keep their names hidden, fine. Assume every Democrat except Thanedar and Green said every one of those quotes.

- Also because it’s angering me how little reporting has been done on the articles themselves, which are extremely strong, you can read them here. If you don’t have much time, I would just read Article VII: Tyranny. It’s about a page and a half.

- If you're shocked about corruption in American politics, I invite you to take a gander at our campaign finance "system."

- An Ohio man checked out 100 library books & burned them. "The books were reportedly on Jewish history, African American history, and LGBTQ+ education." Librarians, pls consider NOT letting patrons take out more than 5-10 books at once. These are dangerous times. www.cleveland19.com/2025/05/12/m...
- Three Wins Today (May 13, 2025) 1. @allisonjriggs.bsky.social has officially been sworn in!!!! 2. Protesters lined the room and hallway outside the @energycommerce.bsky.social hearing on the cuts to Medicaid. @repgreglandsman.bsky.social told me this is what is giving him hope right now 1/
