Deploying the National Guard into American cities isn't "law and order"—it's an authoritarian overreach. We need community-led safety, not political intimidation. pism.pl/publications...

One of GOP's biggest financial backers is suddenly keeping his wallet closed, & the timing couldn't be worse. Ronald Lauder, billionaire heir to the Estée Lauder fortune & reliable GOP megadonors, has abruptly cut off donations ahead of the midterms. #ProudBlue dailyboulder.com/billionaire-...
NEW from me: I think this is the perfect time to use Rachel Maddow’s oft-repeated phrase - ‘watch what they do- not what they say.’ Ignore Ellison's PR pitch, but look at what's happening at CBS News including directing reporters to add “facts” that did not exist. open.substack.com/pub/jennifer...

Talarico’s argument is simple: Stop treating marijuana like a crime. Legalize it. Regulate it. Tax it. Stop wasting police resources on low-level marijuana offenses. Clear the records of people whose lives have been derailed by nonviolent marijuana convictions.
I don't tell Communist jokes because MAGA may not understand them, and Communist jokes are only funny when everyone gets them.

Actually disgusting that nurses were treated like utter shit, overworked and dying during the pandemic and now RFK is on TV telling everyone that didn't happen. I can't even imagine a more thankless, hostile job right now.
“Ben-Gvir, who presides over Israel’s prisons as national security minister, has said that the idea was inspired by U.S. President Donald Trump’s ‘Alligator Alcatraz,’ the immigration jail in Florida that was shuttered after reports of horrific human rights abuses.”
An Israeli court has temporarily blocked a plan, cooked up by far right minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, to construct a moat full of crocodiles around a notoriously abusive prison that holds Palestinians, over concerns that the crocodiles would be harmed or mistreated.
