The future of the Democratic Party must be rooted in investing in the American people — not Wall St., corporations, and consultants. Otherwise, Trumpism will continue to use cynicism, racism, and distrust to divide America.

Federal corporate political spending has already reached nearly $650 MILLION ahead of the midterms, according to @publiccitizen.bsky.social. That’s an all-time high — and we’re still months away from Election Day. Big Money is the real threat to “election integrity.”

When the Kennedys were in the White House, they were HUGE supporters of the arts. The greatest artists of the era performed there. It was so right that the DC monument to honor JFK was The Kennedy Center. There is no reason for Trump's name to be included. He has never supported the arts.
Sitting in the car, listening to the last chapter and the beautiful but heartrending description of Terry’s end, eyes very blurry for some reason. Thank you for this, @terryandrob.bsky.social and @rhi.bsky.social - it was a beautiful last gift for us all
Angry Staff Officer@pptsapper.bsky.social · last wk.Currently reading this, and it is an absolute delight. Sir Terry really was the best of us. I love that he got hooked by “Wind in the Willows” and LOTR - two of the works that got their delightful hooks into me when I was young

At the start of the Trump administration, an executive order was released with certain words and phrases that will now be flagged by federal agencies. While an executive order is not law, the OMB ruling or NSF proposal would make it law. Enforcing a political rule where there should not be one.
Dropping blood counts show that Donald Trump has a poorly treatable chronic anemia. Hard data from the White House has been overlooked until now. So, no question he is chronically ill. Systemic amyloidosis is top suspicion. #trump #health #anemia #amyloidosis amyloid47.substack.com/p/donald-tru...
Donald Trump has chronic anemia
White House data proves it. And it’s poorly treatable.

Oooof. Trump promised 5% GDP (completely unrealistic), but 1.5% is yikes. It was around 3% when Biden left office.

Jesse Watters declared that Angie Nixon, Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate in Florida, didn't like white people because she was critical of Charlie Kirk. Criticism of ONE person does not equate to hatred of an entire race. Kirk did make racist statements. 🤷♀️
"Carney spent the past nine months making the case that Canada must fight back against the US to ensure its survival. Trump spent that time posting AI slop and pretending the US has nothing to lose. One of these men has a 30 percent approval rating 70 days before an election." — @lizdye.bsky.social
