We’re going to hear about how everyone loved Dolly, and that feels true. But it’s good to remember, and to her credit, that she was attacked for her AIDS activism, her vaccine advocacy, her LGBTQ+ support and even, more recently, for her reading initiatives. She ALWAYS stood firm when it mattered.
This morning in Danbury, ICE was arresting parents at school bus stops. But it’s more sinister. ICE waited until the kids were on the bus so when they are dropped off at the end of the day, they are alone, scared to death they can’t find their parents. I’m heading to Danbury.
A Flock camera was pointed directly at a community pool... you know, for reading license plates of course.
Call me crazy, but perhaps being related to a Senator who died doesn’t qualify you to be a Senator.
JUST IN: The total US debt has officially hit $40 TRILLION for the first time IN HISTORY
Ballou on Epstein Files Hearing: There were just long periods of silence in the courtroom as the DOJ struggled to articulate why it couldn’t follow the law here. I had never really been in a hearing like that, where one side was just silent on their own arguments…
Whoa. Sherrod Brown’s new ad is devastating for Jon Husted. Sarah Bloom Anderson trusted Husted when he looked her in the eye and promised he wouldn’t cut Medicaid, the program that saves her daughter. One week later, Husted voted to cut Medicaid.
Ossoff: I'm trying to make sure that folks in Georgia know the truth about this administration. And apparently in the White House, the truth hurts.
The countdown is on. 80 days to flip the House and Senate, make America affordable, protect healthcare, and send a message. No more excuses. No more sitting this out. Organize. Vote. Win. #BlueWaveIn80Days

We all know this still stinks to high heaven. Gov. Andy Beshear says he still hasn’t received an official update from Sen. Mitch McConnell. “I’ve had no official response. Nothing sent to our office, no letter, no email.”
This is absolutely nonsense. The Postmaster General said during a Senate hearing today that if a proposed federal mail ballot rule takes effect, the Postal Service would refuse to deliver mail ballots in states that do not turn over sensitive voter data to the federal government.
Trump is strong arming the postal service, the FCC, and his party. Something has to give. Rise up people. Rise all the way up.
If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage. The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.” It’s about control.

Donald Trump is the biggest failure in American history.
$2.5 BILLION. That’s how much the Trump Administration has now spent paying companies to cancel offshore wind projects that would have lowered your electric bill. Yes, you heard that right, they are PAYING to keep your energy bills high.
