I listened to this yesterday, it was a good primer on what the DSA is and is not. I found it very informative. Good information for anyone in your orbit saying DSA needs to run their own candidates- spoiler- the DSA is not a political party, but an organizing non-profit. This particular leader is from the NY organization, they are all local so you will find different chapters doing different things.
Yes, it is a link to a podcast but you can also try the transcript
Garrison talks with Grace Mausser, co-chair of the New York City chapter of DSA, about the chapter’s on-the-ground organizing strategy, DSA’s relationship to the democratic party, and what their electoral wins could mean for building working class power.
JOHN CORNYN DOES HIS SUSAN COLLINS IMITATION: The Texas senator yesterday, on Todd Blanche’s promise to kill the slush fund: "In this case, we have no alternative but to take his word for it."
THE FUCK YOU SAY SENATOR! YOUR FUCKING ALTERNATIVE IS NOT TO CONFIRM DONALD FUCKING TRUMP’S PERSONAL DEFENSE LAWYER! WHY IS THIS HARD??
Just met David Crowley, the other person in the WI dem gov primary and he is impressive. First black Milwaukee county executive at age 33. He has real charisma.
I sent her some $$$ the other day - the race is not well-known but i really want her to win - the woman who cuts my hair knows her and told me about her
Or, the control that billionaires' cash exerts over all members of Congress and the electoral process is at the core of most of our problems as a nation.
That, and the propaganda on TV, radio, and the internet, most of which is controlled by the same billionaires.
Are the Rs really going to confirm another broadly opposed and hated nominee? These morons really do hate America. And love losing. But hey, let’s make it as painful as possible.
Good morning. Tapper has that look on his face like he's getting ready to write another BS book about Biden in that video. How the hell are we all today?
I knew this was his MO but for some reason this popping up at my face this morning absolutely sent me into the stratosphere. I shouldn't speak ill of the dead but...I'm gonna anyway
Imagine if you dedicated your entire career to serving your country and the job you end up with is making sure an feeble, deranged old man doesn’t get lost at the airport.
Wouldn't shock me. We learned this lesson in WWII and in Vietnam - you have to rotate out capital ships if only to do maintenance and repair. Some things can't be fixed without a naval base or repair ship nearby.

"Why this poop-propelled ‘headless chicken monster’ is the ninja of the deep sea"
some times it is better not to know
so much fancier than the one we had in the tank in the museum. It looked like a pink chewing gum cigar(old people reference)
it's body(?)/head(?) is ALL GONAD!!

Apparently I need to give this some thought
And here I was thinking, “What a cute puppy.”
Cool...but why aren't they called sea zucchinis or sea courgettes?
or sea gonads
Babby marrows, eh what?
Hey! I wore my pink shirt to work today! It's kismet!
Pink, not to say fuchsia, and damned proud of it!
faaabulous
That reminds me, I have a bunch of land cucumbers that need pickling.
From this day forward, they shall be known as land cucumbers.
So do I. Our weirdly aggressive snails are chewing holes in mine.
with WHAT do they chew?
Sheer will power. You will respect it.
That reminds me, that jar of raspberry preserves has been in the fridge since COVID started. I better feed it.
No kidding, it may be becoming angry with you!
Thinking about making a break for it...
Oh rats, I thought this was The Blood Clot the just has that one job.
Mmmmm. Laver bread and sea cucumber sandwiches.
Good for you, Pink Sea Cucumber for being proud. You are beautiful!
I love her little "cape".
and then 'she' just FLIES AWAY

Mrs LS pointed this out to me ... uh ... I can't even with this stupid today.
Every time I see Max Miller I get confused because that's also the name of the host of Tasting History.
I love that show!

The Tate brothers' lawyer is breathlessly screaming on X that if his clients get extradited to the UK they will be executed.
One slight problem - the UK abolished the death penalty for all crimes in 1998.
Definitely what a lawyer is supposed to do when one is trying to claim your clients innocence……..
Gormless.
That's a great word.
The stupids who love them don't know that though!

I had to laugh this year when we taught "checks and balances". By laugh, I mean I almost broke out in tears.

Delighted to see that Social Democrats have taken Michigan.

I'm surprised they didn't announce that he was dead at 12:01 this morning. I guess that would be too obvious. Maybe later this morning.

Just don't provide X in Australia. Problem solved. What a greedy, lying bastard.
And ignorant, also too. You sue where the company is headquartered ... of course Elno knows that.
