Former Republican Senator Jeff Flake just endorsed Democrat Jon Ossoff. Flake says he is still a conservative Republican, but character matters more than party. Flake warns Mike Collins would be a rubber stamp for Donald Trump. #GASen #CharacterMatters
Taking my time to really listen and learn from the very valid concerns of the MAHA movement:
Memento (artemis) Morty 🌙@mementomorty.bsky.social · 4h agowe should hear MAHA out about this they might be onto something
DURBIN: You wrote an article in which you claimed 'Black inmates are most like to become sexual aggressors.' Why should people of color believe you've changed? CRONAN: I co-authored the article. I haven't re-read it in a long time. DURBIN: Do you believe it? CRONAN: I'm not in a position to opine
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.

I love it when Mtrs. Betty Bowers gives Trump a good old roasting.
Mrs. Betty Bowers@mrsbettybowers.bsky.social · 3d agoHey, 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FYI: Blanche rescinded the ORDER establishing the slush fund, not the underlying “settlement.”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.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · yesterdayWhitehouse: "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
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.
