Andy Beshear should say he spoke to Mitch for 20 minutes and Mitch told him to appoint someone else. Prove him wrong, Mitch. Prove him wrong.
Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good. I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

Ukraine drones struck a sprawling oil refinery that provides 40% of Moscow's gasoline. All airports were temporarily shut down and drone strikes injured at least 17 people in Moscow. Zelensky: If Ukraine burns, then your Moscow will burn as well. #SlavaUkraini

Trump ended free admission to national parks on Juneteenth. To celebrate Juneteenth and America's 250th birthday, California is giving away FREE Historian Passports for unlimited visits to 32 state historic parks through the end of 2026 🏛️🌲 reservecalifornia.com/passes/advancepasses
It’s wild to talk to folks about Missouri only to hear someone blame “the Democrats.” What Democrats? We’ve had a Republican legislative supermajority for over two decades and haven’t had a statewide elected Dem since 2018. Everything you see in this state is due to Republican authoritarianism.

If there is any woman out there who thinks for a second that the Republican Party will not strip you of your right to vote, just recall how quickly they acted to ban abortion and take away black folks’ ability to vote for the candidate of their choice. #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy
Can we just step back and realize how messed up it is to put your name on someone's memorial in the first place???
