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.
El-Sayed: "Mike, I'm gonna say it right now, I know you're gonna say no because you're a coward: Five debates, alright? ... By the time we're done, you are not gonna have safe quarter from people holding you accountable to what you've done for them here in Michigan. We will send you back to Florida"
Notice DOJ doesn't talk about its efforts to obtain state voter files anymore. They are 0-20 in those cases and today is the beginning of the quiet period -- states can no longer do systematic removals of names from the voter rolls. TLDR: We won!🥳
El-Sayed: "My commitment to Jewish safety is the same commitment that I have to the safety of my own daughters. Because if there is one question of political philosophy that ought to animate us all, it's what would we do if we treated all our kids like they were all of our kids?"
A disappointing decision. A federal judge reluctantly dismissed the remaining criminal charges against eight Oath Keepers charged with seditious conspiracy in the Jan. 6 attack after the Justice Department requested the case be thrown out.
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...

Blanche is lying about the slush fund, and NOT LYING labout making Dobbs the law of the land, eliminating reproductive healthcare for women. It’s past time to show this grifter who he’s fucking with. Call your senators NOW to vote NO‼️ #ReproductiveRightsAreHumanRights #WomensRightsAreHumanRights
Acting AG Todd Blanche went mask-off, promising hard-liners behind closed doors to roll back abortion access further and make Dobbs “permanent in every single state.” Another reason to #SayNOtoBlanche. Source: flip.it/wFl4wM

As Immanuel Kant wrote, the consequence that flows from assassinations as a war tactics is that it complicates or makes it impossible ever to form an enduring peace. But this, precisely, is why Netanyahu is to attached to assassinations as a tactic.
The Minnesota GOP is all in for the military occupation of Minnesota and brutalization of its people, because this is what Dear Leader wants. They're indifferent to the fact that 80% of Minnesotans oppose this. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3h agoEvery single Republican candidate for governor of Minnesota (including Mike Lindell!) makes clear that if Trump tried another Operation Metro Surge in the Twin Cities, they would support his efforts to brutalize residents
Now mixing in paid advertisements into his normal corruption.
it's not why *everything* sucks, but having all three branches of the federal government captured by thieves, abusers, bigots, and cowards is definitely why a lot of things suck
Awww….That idiot (aka Putain de Merde) in the White House missed the legal deadline for screwing up birthright citizenship. I liked the cartoon. I don’t care who boots him out of our country.
This is so true. Texans you have to turn Texas back to blue. You have to want better.
