"In this climate, fighting back bad history that attempts to wash the blood from settler-colonial hands is not merely an academic pursuit but a moral imperative." A helpful rebuttal of that garbage 'myth of the stolen country' piece: https://t.co/PhWRGe9CkT #twitterstorians

The Lincoln Project convinced Democratic donors to part with $39,384,397 in Q3. It burned a staggering $13 million on operating expenditures, made $23.9M of IEs (mostly routed into its founders firms), and ended with $13.2M on hand. https://t.co/wvOXUYp7ed

This analysis got somewhat lost in the shuffle, but Charles Koch is going big for Barrett — not bc he hopes she'll destroy Roe or the ACA, but because he hopes she'll destroy the planet 1/https://t.co/dT4mTg1u6d

Amy Siskind. I followed her for a while, on FB, I think.

I have a better idea. How about we track down Koch, Murdoch, Adelson, and Mercer, and hang them by their balls.

That is such an Amy Siskind thing to recommend. Fuckin’ liberals, man. Always into the symbolism without accomplishing any goddamn thing.

I like Nathan’s tweets. I’m always hearting them. I gotta figure out a way to customize my twitter feed.

Trump YET AGAIN publicly bragging that he sent in his marshals to execute a criminal suspect without trial, not even pretending there was an attempt to arrest him. This is pure dictatorship stuff, I don't understand why this story isn't much, much bigger.https://t.co/wi3w59orUO https://t.co/HS5IiFnNEb

In the 19th Century, socialists argued that the right to guaranteed work stemmed from the right to life. The closing of the commons and the transition to industrialism denied the possibility of independent basic sustenance outside of such a guarantee. https://t.co/K3FDuWqJ0V

The idea that progressive voters want things to be “perfect” and are naïve/ too demanding is propaganda intended to disguise the extent to which politicians purposefully avoid doing the bare minimum at their donors’ behest.

When most people were [nervously waiting to see if they'd lose their health care], Pete Buttigieg started [finding a way to monetize his campaign based around preserving the corporate health care system].

This is a good thread

Neoliberalism's starting gun went off on 1973, when a US- and UK-backed fascist military deposed Salvador Allende, the incredibly popular, democratically elected president of Chile.

It’s the 25-year Rule.

If it happened over 25 years ago, it’s okay to talk about because it’s ancient history and has no reflection on the current power structure. Bad Apples.

You won’t see that guy running a thread on Yemen, or Libya.

That guy was probably aiming for protesters and got all hyper on adrenaline, and launched himself through the “wrong” people.

But that sure isn’t a protester move we’ve ever seen. Nearly 100 cases of rightwingers doing it this year. Zero cases of protesters doing it.

He takes a hard left hand turn, couldn’t have even seen his target until too late. And the guy in the bed of the truck looks like White ISIS. That isn’t a protester move. That’s “friendly fire.”
