On a private call, Todd Blanche said his goal was to make the "Dobbs decision permanent in every single state." This isn’t just a confirmation vote anymore—it’s a roll-call vote on which Senators endorse BANNING abortion in ALL 50 states. I’m voting NO.

CEOs are raking in $17 million a year, 300 times what their own workers make, and John Husted’s answer is “learn to budget.” Sherrod Brown wrote the law that got over 100,000 Ohioans their stolen pensions back. Vote for who fights for you, not who lectures you. #BlueWaveIn90Days

El-Sayed: "If all Mike Rogers got is that 'his name is Abdul, and my name is Mike,' you're gonna be surprised how many people are like, 'Yeah, but that's the Abdul who wants to bring down the price of my groceries and make sure I got healthcare. So yeah, I like Abdul over your Mike from Florida.'"

NEW from me: I think this is the perfect time to use Rachel Maddow’s oft-repeated phrase - ‘watch what they do- not what they say.’ Ignore Ellison's PR pitch, but look at what's happening at CBS News including directing reporters to add “facts” that did not exist. open.substack.com/pub/jennifer...

David Ellison can’t be trusted with CNN

We've already seen how Ellison has wrecked CBS. Don't fall for his PR push on CNN.

I can remember in 2008 the sense of how the arrival of a better America would accompany this man's election. I still believe his message of hope is the right one. It is a strategy. Happy birthday, Mr President!

Reading Chamique Holdsclaw’s story honestly made me kind of sad. She and so many of the women who built this league deserved so much better. We’re all enjoying today’s WNBA because they kept pushing through moments like these. ❤️ #WNBA

I wish I had more neighbors like this.

What's even worse about this is that the Knicks owner, James Dolan, was caught specifically tracking trans women for years, including when they went to the bathroom. No suspension there but speaking out against transphobia nets you a 5 game suspension. www.them.us/story/jim-do...

MSG Security Allegedly Tracked a Trans Woman’s Movements, Including Bathroom Breaks, Down to the Second

A bombshell report in Wired details an extensive use of the venue’s facial recognition system.

Seattle Storm co-owner suspended for 5 home games. The WNBA has chosen a side. Now, transphobic protesters have an incentive to goad players, team staff, and fans into reacting to get them kicked out or suspended. sports.yahoo.com/wnba/article...

Considering how badly Covid was mishandled, they're probably going to regret the decision to make Fauci's personal diary and journal public. We're going to see how it was handled from the insider, from Fauci's point of view... based on you know...science.

They are trying to take away a woman’s right to vote. This deserves way more views than it has.

This makes me physically ill. What is wrong with these women? Yes, they are all white. Dang, the cult brainwashing is strong in these evangelical families. I mean seriously, this is beyond Waco Koresh Jim Jones Manson shit! Something has to give. This is so wrong. #Pinks

This is not getting enough coverage.

WNBA suspends Seattle Storm minority owner for being rude to transphobic shitheads:

THIS 👇 HERE TOO.......

Has anyone looked at the Seattle Storm’s comments lately? They’ve been flooded with alt-right accounts. Sophie needs to address this immediately. Are we really going to let this become part of the W? I thought this league was our escape from all of that. #WNBA
