if you too want to know the joys of walking around in a circle, talking **** about your biggest opps, a picket line might be the place for you

That was one big performance by the NYPD and it backfired spectacularly. Their goal was to make Luigi Mangione look like a Batman villain. Instead it made him look like a folk hero who fought back against the system that puts profits over our own lives.

I’ve seen one too many death videos that I didn’t ask for on “new and improved X.” Let’s connect on Bluesky. @bankonjake

You need to seek immediate mental health counseling if you look at Trump's victory and are somehow more mad at a few lefty podcasters than you are mad at the Democratic operatives who lit $1 billion of campaign cash on fire as they piloted Democrats' campaign into the ground.

The party who lost the House, Senate, White House, and the popular vote for the first time in 20 years is re-electing leadership. Completely irresponsible.

Somehow, some way, the media and the people who run the Democratic Party will figure out how to blame this all on Bernie Bros. That train is always on time.

I’m so angry right now. Biden should not be running. Fascism is here. There’s no real opposition. The DNC has to take off the rose colored glasses if they don’t want to be complicit. For the good of the nation we need a new candidate. #debate

As a survivor of gun violence myself, when Dr. @lj_punch came to us for a grant to help expand The BRIC (Bullet Related Injury Clinic), I knew we had to get it done. I’m proud to deliver $3 million in funding for North St. Louis—16x the amount requested—to help save lives.

Huge thanks to @CoriBush for having #Teamsters backs and reminding @AnheuserBusch how crucial job security and retirement benefits are to workers in St. Louis and around the nation 👊 bush.house.gov/media/press-r…

Guess nothing notable happened with the #volkswagen corporation before 1949. #SuperBowl2024 – at St Louis, MO

Just watched the press conference clip with the chief of police. He says, “thank his none of these officers were hurt”. Well, someone was hurt, one of the bar owners got beaten up by the cops. No mention of that. – at St Louis, MO

High ranking Israeli officials continue to openly call for the ethnic cleansing of Gaza. This language isn’t new. This has been the goal of Israel’s right-wing for decades. The US cannot continue to be complicit. #ceasefirenow
By all means, let’s send this government more money and weapons without delay What on Earth are we doing here

The White House cannot have it both ways: calling on the Israeli government to uphold international law while bypassing Congress to send weapons that are leading to violations of international law. How many innocent people must die before @POTUS will demand a ceasefire?

Tonight it’ll be a week since SLMPD’s assault on Bar:PM. To recap — 1. SLMPD refuses to apologize; 2. @stlcao refuses to drop the charges; 3. @saintlouismayor refuses to ask @22ndCircuitSTL to release body cam footage. Pretty pathetic responses to blatant police misconduct.
