February 28, 2025. This was the day the party of Reagan officially became the cult of Trump.

Corporate spending on elections has already topped $500 million this year. That's one third of the $1.58 billion in total that corporations have spent since Citizens United in 2010. Hawaii and Montana both have plans to neutralize this disastrous SCOTUS ruling. Other states must get on board.

Anti-ICE advocates rallied outside the DHS office near Cincinnati after Haitians losing TPS were summoned for mandatory check-ins. Protesters report officials are fitting people with ankle monitors and issuing new court dates. Community members stand united against these aggressive tactics!

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.

This is Katie Phang From the Midastouch network. Pulitzer is inevitable, but more important, she is hanging the DOJ and Todd Blanche out to dry. Well done Katie, a true hero. -Jack Cannon

“The president and first lady seemed totally unfazed about whether there was an abuser—another abuser—in their workplace. There was no follow-up from either of them to see if I needed help or protection. There was no investigation ordered. No effort to get to the bottom of this ....

I made dinner for my abuser a bunch of times. You have to play nice while you're planning your escape so you don't get dead. Max Miller is a textbook abuser.

NEW: Sen. Bernie Moreno has finally broken his silence, accusing Rep. Max Miller of being “a danger” to his daughter, saying he “needs serious psychological help,” and that he “should not serve in the House of Representatives.”

My books will be on my shelves where they belong. A few friends used to laugh at me for keeping what they called obsolete things like vinyl records and old books. They all agree it was a good idea now.

Hinojosa: That is Greg Abbott’s record. That’s why the polling shows people want change. They know Greg Abbott. They know he’s been there 12 years, and they will not elect him to another four. That’s the opportunity we have in this election.

Ohio GOP Rep. Max Miller announced he’ll be making a “special announcement” at 10 am this morning. His ex-wife Emily Moreno—the daughter of Sen. Bernie Moreno—alleges Miller had threatened, struck & scalded her with boiling water. She also claims Miller broke their 2-year-old daughter’s collarbone.

Crazy to think a decade ago I was completely apolitical, enjoying my straight white guy privilege, oblivious to 99% of the world around me. And now, because yall radicalized me on twitter (according to my family), I'm more in tune with the Michigan democratic primary than the NBA offseason.
