delivered a #CupOfJoe w/ a latte truth about the SAVE Act.
It would put more red tape between women & the ballot box.
Why? They’re scared of women voters. Their goal is to take women’s rights backwards.
Fuck that. We will #KeepMovingForward!
This article gave me nightmares!
"The sudden and cascading effects of trade halting through the waterway, according to Braich “really underscores how interconnected everything is, and how fragile … just any small amount of disruption can have huge aftershocks that reverberate all around the world.”
"One senator said he believes the cost is higher since the figure didn't include aspects like munitions replacement."

Sen. Kim: "The people I talk are thinking about their grocery prices, housing prices. They're not thinking about how much money American corporations are going to make off of higher oil prices, because that's just gonna raise all of our prices at home. That's where the president is just so detached"
If you haven't already watched this American Conversation with @hcrichardson.bsky.social and @frost.house.gov on the Epstein files, it's an important and informative one.

100M children are being displaced because of the American regime. 5M children 5 and under in Yeman are severely malnourished. Gaza is hell on earth. There are solutions for all of this...but there are 3 -4 men and thier billionaires who working to commit genocide. They must be stopped.
You love your children. I love my children. There are more than 175 mothers in Iran that will never see their children, again because Donald Trump needed a distraction from the Epstein files.
He's going down. Historically, these types of monsters don't get away with that kind of shit.

This is like watching Trump bankrupt a casino in real time. Except this time we are the casino.
This is our country. Donald Trump doesn't own America. He doesn't own the White House. Everything he does relies on our money.
We depend on Congress to represent our interests. They are failing us by allowing him to exploit our money for his personal interests. He & his party of sycophants must go.
A Haitian asylum seeker detained by ICE died after being refused timely medical attention for a severe toothache.
At least 40 people have died in ICE custody since Trump took office — a two-decade high.
The monstrous cruelty of Trump's police state knows no bounds.
“We’ve got a little hiccup with some of the Hispanic and Latino voters for certain, because some of the immigration enforcement was viewed to be overzealous,” Mr. Johnson said in an interview
"A little hiccup." "Viewed as." They're not going to change policy, they're going to change messaging.
Senate Republicans just blocked funding for TSA, Coastguard, and FEMA because they refuse to reign in this out of control agency.
Officers who defended the Capitol on Jan. 6 asked a judge to let their lawsuit over an honorary plaque proceed, arguing its current placement still violates federal law.
“Hidden from visitors, the plaque’s current location is no better than the basement where it sat for years,” the filing states.
Elon Musk is now worth $845 billion.
Tesla reported paying ZERO federal income tax on $5.7 billion of U.S. income in 2025.
Meanwhile, nearly a quarter of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck and household debt has risen to a record high.
See the problem here?

Today, republicans block Democratic bill to fund DHS agencies other than ICE, CBP. Sen. Patty Murray (D-WA) asked for unanimous consent for a measure to fund the TSA, FEMA, and CISA. It would not cover ICE or CBP. Republicans objected. thehill.com/homenews/sen... #PINKS
Among dozens of companies competing for Pentagon contracts to supply attack drones, one stands out.
Powerus is flush with cash and ballooning in size as it buys up rivals and has one other advantage: It is partly owned by President Donald Trump’s two oldest sons.
1. Horrifying ruling out of the 4th Circuit.
An all-Republican 4th Circuit panel has just ruled that states can compel trans adults to "appreciate their sex" by enacting care bans.
It even directly says that trans adult care bans are legal in the ruling.

We need to know if Russia helped kill Pennington.

Gonna repeat again. We know how 6 of 7 people KIA died, in Iranian attack in Kuwait. That wouldn't need sophisticated intel (they had been watching it w/drones).
But 7th, Benjamin Pennington, was LIKELY part of a precision attack on Prince Sultan Air Base, kind of attack RU would have helped on.
A short time later Ms. Etherington’s vehicle was spotted following the Border Patrol vehicles again. The BPAs made the decision to stop Ms. Etherington, this time with the intent to use the Border Patrol vehicles to box her in. A few minutes after the decision to stop Ms. Etherington was made, BPAs were able to position their Border Patrol vehicles in front and behind Ms. Etherington’s vehicle. The Border Patrol vehicles then stopped Ms. Etherington’s vehicle by boxing her vehicle in the middle of the road. As BPAs exited the vehicle, Ms. Etherington tried to drive around the Border Patrol vehicle stopped in front of her. As she passed the Border Patrol vehicle stopped in front of her, she bumped the Border Patrol vehicle and continued to drive away. The Government has produced no reports identifying any damage to the Border Patrol vehicle. As Ms. Etherington drove from the scene, BPAs reentered their vehicles and began a pursuit of Ms. Etherington that ended when Border Patrol vehicles rammed into her vehicle bringing her to a stop in front of Roosevelt High School. BPAs immediately swarmed Ms. Etherington’s vehicle with firearms drawn and broke both door windows of Ms. Etherington’s vehicle before forcibly removing her from her vehicle.
Gillian Etherington is one of MN people Pam Bondi rolled out as a trophy back in Jan. She was charged w/felony assault of CBP bc they broke her car window and dragged her out at Roosevelt High (same day Goo was shot).
She's challenging her prosecution on several grounds, incl, basically, CMON.
I spent the last week writing up this essay on what it means to be trans in this moment. What it means to live under authoritarianism as the scapegoated minority of the moment and how it feels inescapable as an infinite loop.

Campaign filing showing Eric Schmidt donated $1,041,896 to California Business Roundtable
Lots of new campaign filings coming out in California with tech billionaires spending big.
One new filing I hadn't seen reported on yet was Google's Eric Schmidt donating more than $1M to a committee combating the proposed billionaire tax

That's not Tricia, btw. That's Madison Sheahan, Noem's wildly underqualified Deputy, now running against Marcy Kaptur in OH. She ALSO was part of this grift.
Is there a reason why OGR has not subpoenaed Maurene Comey? She'd need a proper subpoena to get by privilege (but her dad mastered that for his 2007 hospital hero testimony, so she knows how it works). But ... she would have a lot of insight on all this.
Diplomatic staff at the American consulate in Erbil were also forced to shelter-in-place when the facility came under attack from Iran before they were ultimately flown out of the country by the British Royal Air Force due to constraints on the U.S. military, which would normally carry out such a mission, according to the officials. The U.K. Ministry of Defense confirmed to ABC News that the RAF carried "a number of US consulate staff and contractors, at their request" from Iraq to Cyprus.
Trump apparently needed one of those allies he doesn't need anymore to rescue the Americans in Iraq who weren't evacuated before Trump shat the place up.
Meanwhile, Witkoff is meeting with the people who helped Iran do the targeting.
