It’s bad. Ukraine is still effectively hitting both inside Russia and occupied Crimea almost daily, but Putin (as usual) is targeting population centers instead of legitimate military targets.

The Heritage Foundation asserts that women never needed sports in the first place. To prove that Title IX has become a tool of “feminist social engineering.” To demonstrate that women don’t need sports and that “clubs, intramurals, and exercise classes” is enough. open.substack.com/pub/jesspipe...

We would never touch Medicare.” Then they ended the premium stabilizer, delayed Savings Program help, and let the deficit trigger cuts. Fixed-income voters have long memories and short patience. Tick-tock. #BlueWaveIn90Days

ICYMI last night, DHS is currently being fined every day for contempt of court until it coughs up the cell phone records of officers involved in immigration stops in L.A. last year that looked like racial profiling rather than reasonable cause. short thread -->
Fed. judge holds DHS in civil contempt of court for refusing "intentionally and not in good faith" to provide plaintiffs with phone images they intend to use to prove DHS was racially profiling people arrested in Los Angeles without reasonable suspicion. Order from July 28, unsealed today.
Welcome to the Golden Age of Propaganda.
Well, this.
Would love to remove the so-called commander in chief for the same reason.
Why this isn’t getting more attention baffles the heck out of me. Kudos to the judge.
You could think, this Hawaii Supreme Court justice should mind his own business. Or you can recognize how bad the situation must be for him to have devoted a share of a decision to warning about the U.S. Supreme Court's hard-right turn.
To every veteran watching their grocery bill climb while the White House cuts benefits to fund a war that nobody wants: this November isn't optional. Democrats will lower your healthcare costs and protect your Social Security. Republicans will grift for the billionaire donor class. #BlueWaveIn90Days
Rent isn’t high by accident, it’s high because 9 landlords colluded with an algorithm called RealPage to fix prices behind your back. Kris Mayes sued every single one of them. This is what a real fighter looks like, and it’s why she deserves your vote, AZ! #BlueWaveIn90Days

WSJ: “.. One problem Republicans face in this year’s midterm elections is that the socialist label has lost its sting. .. On Monday, Mr. Trump told reporters that U.S. oil companies are ‘making too much money.’ He took the words right out of Bernie’s mouth.” @wsj.com www.wsj.com/opinion/soci...
Schumer/Gillibrand on @abdulelsayed.bsky.social's nomination: "Democrats are united by a common purpose: putting a check on Donald Trump by defeating his Republican enablers and taking back the Senate. We look forward to working with Abdul and Democrats across Michigan to win this seat in November."
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!🥳

The military accidentally killed a medevac crew this year, and hardly anyone is talking about it. New Wired reporting says a medevac plane lost GPS during an Army jamming exercise near White Sands. In low visibility, it struck a mountain, killing all four aboard. #SheShed 🧵
I need to stop hearing centrists say progressives can’t win anywhere other than NY or CA. This is what the Democratic base wants. Change. And this was after he was outspent 9 to 1 because of freakin SuperPACs. Now it’s vote blue no matter who, right centrists? Congrats Dr. Abdul El-Sayed!!
