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!

Russia is providing Iran intelligence to target U.S. forces. Not surprising. What IS surprising? Our response: easing oil sanctions on Russia.

The reason why our stockpiles are seriously depleted is not because of Joe Biden. It is because the Iran War is the SEVENTH bombing campaign by Trump in the past year. And that doesn’t count the Venezuelan boats. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Landed in Canberra to meet with Prime Minister @albomp.bsky.social.

This is the first bilateral visit by a Canadian PM to Australia in two decades. In a more uncertain world, we turn to our long-standing partners who share our values and our ambition to build.

Ansari: "The DOJ was caught red handed withholding explosive and credible FBI witness interviews of a woman who accused Donald Trump of sexually assaulting her when she was a minor. Shouldn't we hold hearings on that? Shouldn't Pam Bondi be here, forced to testify about why she's violating the law?"

“At the end of the day, she didn’t sound any better than some of these ultra-conservative people who were demeaning Black and Brown folk on a regular basis,” said Rev. Rodney Sadler, a Bible scholar and longtime community activist in Charlotte. “It felt like a betrayal of the utmost.”

Cunningham’s comments proved so problematic for Sadler that he said he realized that she was “no longer worthy of being our representative” and he had to run against her. “It drove me to a point of saying, ‘She needs to go, and she needs to go now,’” the 58-year-old pastor, who works at Charlotte’s Union Presbyterian Seminary, told Bolts.

this guy challenged a sitting Democratic lawmaker in yesterday's primary, angered by her pro-ICE vote, and he ousted her 70% to 22%.

Huge slap in the face to democracy. Democratic Colorado governor, @colorado.gov, just publicly signaled clemency to Tina peters, convicted of election interference. If election crimes have no consequences, why would the next denier stop?

The Trump Administration is trying to strip veterans of their reproductive freedoms by banning the VA from providing abortion counseling and care.

I'm pushing the administration to respect their service and reverse course on this draconian attack on our veterans' health and freedom.

Meanwhile, the other Republican Senator from Montana is calling it quits on re-election?

Remember when Rep. Greg Gianforte, now the GOP governor of the state, body slammed a reporter into a table?

We probably need to shut down the Montana Republican Party entirely until we can figure out where all this violent rage is coming from.

Yes, of course, since the ghosts of the dead were supposed to appear before his boss (ideally on camera) and grip him by the hand with tears running down their ghostly faces, saying "Sir, sir, it was an honor to die for you...!" ..And yet somehow *this isn't happening.* The media must be to blame. 🫤

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem testified that detainees receive medical attention within 12 hours.

That’s just plain false.

Listen to the U.S. Citizens who were wrongfully detained and denied critical care.

Melania Trump, wife of Donald Trump Leads UNSC

Melania Trump, wife of Donald Trump Leads UNSC

The US showed its contempt with the world, international law, and UN by having Melania Trump, with no actual experience, lead the UN Security Council as the war of aggression against Iran continues to spiral out of control.

Love @jamestalarico.bsky.social framing here both for Texas and national moment.

Much of what MAGA does is flagrantly illegal. Some of it is legal.

All of it is corrupt.

Year round Standard Time (not an option on the survey) would have been the choice of most people I suspect. It not being, people chose year round Daylight Time instead.
