Call your Senators and let them know to BLOCK BLANCHE. He's coming for your reproductive rights.
@katiephang.bsky.social lays out how nominee for AG Todd Blanche is saying the quiet part out loud: The Trump admin will use every lever they can to restrict abortion, in every state. Call your Senators and tell them to vote NO on Blanche. 📞 888-380-2711 https://www.youtube.com/shorts/vXNF98NXAjg
Abdul El-Sayed was outspent 9-to-1 by AIPAC and corporate Super PACs in the most expensive Senate Democratic primary of all time. Last night, he proved that organized people can beat organized money.
* It's unreal how terrible Trump's nominees are * DURBIN: You wrote, 'Feminists advanced a theory that rape is meant to perpetuate male domination.' Do you still oppose Violence Against Women Act? CANDEUB: I haven't really thought it D: In 2023 you did an interview & decried harassment laws ...
BREAKING: The New Mexico Department of Justice has sued Acting AG Todd Blanche and the DOJ, requesting the court for access to unredacted Epstein-related investigative files that the DOJ has been withholding.
It won’t, but it will make racists feel better because instead of delving into the nuanced reasons for higher costs of groceries or gas, it’s much easier to blame minorities.
It is more important to MAGA to be racists than to put food on their tables for their families. Fact.
It will raise prices, because everything is more difficult, and unsafe.
It’s bad. Ukraine is still effectively hitting both inside Russia and occupied Crimea almost daily, but Putin (as usual) is targeting population centers instead of legitimate military targets.
I heard boos when Kobluchar said $70B shouldn’t go to ICE, but go to your healthcare & childcare. The few that did boo are ok with violence, even against their own families & think healthcare isn’t important. Just wait until they get terminally ill & refused treatment because they have no insurance.

The ONLY question every Republican, Democrat, or Independent should be asking this Midterm: “Will the person I’m voting for stand up for me . . . or lay down for Trump and ignore his corruption?”
No, vote for me and ICE will terrorize other people in evil liberal areas
Vote for me, I’ll have masked men terrorize your neighbors?
So every Republican has disqualified themselves. What a shock.
It's amazing how many Republicans just seem to viscerally loathe the major population, economic, and cultural centers of their states.
Klobuchar responds: "None of my opponents on this stage condemned what ICE did. Not a word. Two innocent people were killed, shot in the back. We had many people arrested when they weren't supposed to be arrested, and we need reform to ICE."
Every single Republican candidate for governor of Minnesota (including Mike Lindell!) makes clear that if Trump tried another Operation Metro Surge in the Twin Cities, they would support his efforts to brutalize residents
SHOUT OUT to Mike Luckovich: one of the all-time great political cartoonists. 🏆 With corporate media doing such a poor job in these most perilous of times, his work is more vital than ever! THANK YOU @mluckovich.bsky.social!!! 🙏

🤯 Rep. Max Miller's interview with Jake Tapper was one of the most self-destructive things I've ever witnessed on cable news. Here's the whole thing:
🤯 Max Miller's interview with Tapper is an utter trainwreck 🤯

All that’s left for Max Miller at this point is to publish a book called, ‘If I Did It.’
Damn. This is so disheartening. Judge Mehta has dismissed the Seditious Conspiracy charges against the Oath Keepers.
"Reluctantly," a federal judge dismisses the Oath Keepers seditious conspiracy cases. Trump DOJ "excuses criminal acts that caused a centuries-long pillar of our democracy—the peaceful transfer of presidential power—to buckle." "The court cannot write a different ending," he adds. buff.ly/NvVKnaW
Sen Adam Schiff (D-CA) is final speaker before the vote Here’s Schiff’s statement about Todd Blanche: “He’s sought to compensate cop-beaters with your money”
Capital One has asked a federal judge to dismiss a lawsuit from the Trump Org. over the closure of hundreds of bank accounts in 2021, arguing that the shutdowns were the product of a monthslong anti-money-laundering review — not retaliation for the Capitol riot, as the Trump businesses have claimed.
