The “Why would a woman I’ve made worry that I will hurt her if she displeases me cook to placate me?” question is only asked by the least self-aware domestic abusers.

🗣️ 🗣️ 🗣️ Hundreds of protesters marched through #Fishers, #Indiana in opposition to #GregBovino ’s “ #MassDeportationRally,” with demonstrators condemning the event and calling for immigrant rights and due process‼️

I wholeheartedly concur with this post.

I love it when Mtrs. Betty Bowers gives Trump a good old roasting.

Hey, get in line behind *millions* of people, including Native Americans driven from their land and slaughtered, kidnapped Africans who were enslaved and lynched, women treated like property, LGBTQ people demeaned and treated like they didn’t matter, you crybaby, self-indulgent loser.

FYI: Blanche rescinded the ORDER establishing the slush fund, not the underlying “settlement.” The settlement says any changes must be agreed to by ALL parties, not just Todd. This “rescission” isn’t worth the paper it’s printed on.

knocking on doors, making phone calls, talking to neighbors, and building the grassroots movement to elect progressive candidates like Pramila and all of the state and local candidates she’s endorsed here in Washington.

A massive win in the face of mountains of corporate PAC/AIPAC cash no matter the margin

When generals start emailing the ranks…begging for “creative and unconventional” ideas, you’ve moved past confidence …and into desperation. That’s not the sound of a winning strategy. It’s the sound of leaders…searching for an exit.

Blanche must not be confirmed. Even Pam Bondi admitted he was the go-to fan nap stop in charge of hiding the Epstein files.

Whitehouse: "It's really hard to not have Jeffrey Epstein stick to people who vote to confirm Todd Blanche"

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

It’s official: @abdulelsayed.bsky.social wins the Democratic Primary for Senate! The People Prevail Over Corporate Profits Once Again!

Big money spent $70 million to try and defeat Abdul El-Sayed and it didn't work! POWER TO THE PEOPLE!

Two wins for abortion rights: Voters in Kansas and Missouri easily defeated ballot measures that could have threatened abortion access in their states

Happy birthday @barackobama.bsky.social ! Honor of a lifetime to have been on your team!

On nights like this it’s kinda wild that @abbydphillip & @CNN don’t feel the need to mention @ScottJenningsKY’s podcast bosses at Salem Media are running a pro-Israel influence operation — and that he gets paid by them while he’s on CNN trashing Bernie, @AbdulElSayed, etc

Thank you to everyone who voted today. And a special thank you to everyone who volunteered and helped at the polls! 💚

Kansas voters rejected a ballot measure requiring state Supreme Court justices to be elected instead of appointed by the governor, another setback for Republican lawmakers trying to overturn the ruling that established a constitutional right to abortion.

Missouri voters reject Amendment 4. The Republican-backed measure, designed to make it far harder for citizen initiatives (like abortion rights, marijuana, etc.) to pass by requiring majorities in all 8 congressional districts, has failed. Simple statewide majority rule stays.

Ukraine struck Russia's Syzran oil refinery again. Russian oil refining has now fallen to a 24 year low.

Brown University has a widget that tracks the cost of the Iran war to American consumers (as contrasted to whatever the Pentagon is spending). Per-household cost now exceeds $600. iranwarcost.watson.brown.edu

Trump’s threats are a big yawn. This is reality today: We've used virtually all of our long-range precision missiles fighting Iran, per Reuters. Every time this kind of leak drops, the response is 'fake news' and 'treason.'

El-Sayed is projected to win the Michigan Democratic Senate primary and will go up against Mike Rogers in November

I could have sworn "stolen valor" was a thing Turns out it was just something else Republicans never actually gave a shit about Draft-dodging PoS

University of Michigan voters have a 100% El-Sayed precinct right now.

Here Are 19 - Yes, 19! - Ways Trump and Republicans Are Plotting to Rig and Steal the Midterm Elections

Attacking immigrants and Black voting power. Gutting election security. Voter purges. Threats of arrests and raids. And so much more. Trump’s assault on elections is truly unprecedented.

The left: we want the Epstein files The right: we want the Epstein files The center: we want the Epstein files Trump: best I can do for you is Fauci’s diary, some lies about the reflecting pool, and a failed war in Iran

We see that our political system is broken, then keep behaving as if it worked. We need serious change, and it's time to take bigger swings.
