You know why they were never referred? The coup never ended. Period.
Democrats: You pay taxes. We spend the money on you Republicans: You pay taxes, we spend the money on tax cuts for the wealthy and corporate subsidies This is how wealth is transferred from us to them. The same is true for tariffs. We pay the higher prices, but the corporations get the refunds.
Higher prices are already starting to work their way into the cost of everything from stuffed animals, diapers, and baby wipes to crayons, bottled water, soft drinks, and clothing.
The Iran war’s other bill—and you’re paying It
The costs go way beyond gas. Delivery fees are up and diapers, baby wipes, and stuffed animals are likely next.

They’re gonna roll McConnell’s corpse in there to confirm Blanche, aren’t they?
Healthcare workers belong in hospitals, not detention centers. Over 100 nurses rallied outside Maine Medical Center in Portland on Aug 5, forcing ICE to release Debora Kapisha on Aug 6. Organize, speak out, and demand permanent protection for essential workers. 🎥NowThisImpact

Story of many many Americans lives.. the medical stuff shouldn’t be political But somehow that has become Toxic too????
Notice DOJ doesn't talk about its efforts to obtain state voter files anymore. They are 0-20 in those cases and today is the beginning of the quiet period -- states can no longer do systematic removals of names from the voter rolls. TLDR: We won!🥳
El-Sayed: We live in an era where we continue to see a few very small people try to define America as being as small as they are. We can't control the past 250 years. What we can do is build the next 250
The problem is, even if there is a process, it relies on people being transparent and the senate enforcing the rules. And that is clearly not going to happen in this regime.

I’m old enough to remember that Obama didn’t have to give Iran $330bn in unfrozen assets, lifted sanctions, and a wealth fund in order to get them to agree to nuclear inspectors.
Today is the first day since 2018 that medication abortion is locally available in Missouri after a judge permanently struck down a majority of the state’s abortion restrictions. This win is possible thanks to voters protecting reproductive freedom in the state’s constitution.

Spain just became one of Europe's cheapest power markets. Here is how.
How wind and solar quietly pushed gas off the margin, and the wholesale price followed.
