In autocratization, independent media are rarely shut down outright. They are defunded, fragmented, & then captured.
Public broadcasting is a target precisely because it combines reach, trust, & autonomy. Undermine that infrastructure, & the informational backbone of democracy erodes on its own.
Oh My GOD . . . 😳

Thank you 🙏 @markhamillofficial.bsky.social
At today's Ohio Redistricting Commission meeting, Dems again presented our fair, constitutional map that would ensure Ohioans are represented in Congress.
With 10 days left before the constitutional deadline to pass a bipartisan map, Republicans continue to run out the clock.
I wish I had this skill! Looks delicious
White words on a black background read: 50+ Immigration agents have the authority to detain whom they reasonably suspect are in the country illegally. We found more than 50 Americans who were held after agents questioned their citizenship. They were almost all Latino. ~130 Agents also can arrest citizens who allegedly interfered with or assaulted officers. We compiled cases of about 130 Americans, including a dozen elected officials, accused of assaulting or impeding officers. ~20 Among the citizens detained are nearly 20 children, including two with cancer.
Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents.

This is what I found.

These were taken at Cleveland Ingenuity fest on Saturday. Very engaging and thought provoking exhibition within a surreal and fantastical art and technology festival

A visitor to my greenhouse required an evac. My trusty butterfly net to the rescue. I’ve never seen a hummingbird fly so far straight upward!

Nature heals. So does calm. So take a deep breath…hold it a second or two… and let it all out. Now stop scrolling and go outside or do something offline.

Two big takeaways from yesterday. First, by “joking” that if the U.S. were at war in 2028 there would be “no more elections,” brushing aside the constitutional mandate for regularly scheduled votes. Then later, when a hot mic caught him telling French President Macron that

I get asked constantly -- from friends, family, random people I meet, from separate friends' parents in the last 24 hours -- how I report on politics, especially now, without giving in to despair and cynicism.
I credit Mr. Rogers.

Meteor shower last night, saw a few bright ones despite the full moon. Relaxing way to spend the evening
Thank you! ❤️❤️

Neighborhood garage sale ended yesterday. I sold some of my glass art, counted monarch butterfly visitors, and had many pleasant conversations with neighbors from all over. Exhausting for this introvert but all in all it reaffirmed some hope for humanity.
