Something real is happening in rural Iowa. Voters who backed Ernst, Grassley, & Trump are turning out for Josh Turek because they’ve finally had enough. That’s not a fluke, that’s a movement building right in front of us, and we’ve got 90 days to keep it growing. #BlueWaveIn90Days

Cat Alyst 🏳️⚧️🇨🇦 (they/them)@catalystmeow.bsky.social · 15h agoThis is important to note! Republicans scheduled their Medicare cuts for January 2027. They want to say, “Look!

Last year, Republicans cut Medicaid by $1 TRILLION. Now as working people face the reality of this betrayal, Republicans claim it was about fighting fraud. Give me a break. Republicans cut Medicaid to pay for tax cuts for the billionaire class. Don't let them rewrite history.

John Pavlovitz@johnpavlovitz.bsky.social · 6mo agoStunning words by Michael Dubois.
We’ve been saying this for a while now many of the people being targeted are just fishermen. Evidence now supports that the United States has killed individuals who were not involved in drug trafficking during its “counternarcotics interdiction operations” in the Caribbean and Pacific.
