Imagine being a US Senator pretending to care abt the child rape of the Epstein files; and then hiring Todd Blanche to help protect the rapists.
It’s official: @abdulelsayed.bsky.social wins the Democratic Primary for Senate! The People Prevail Over Corporate Profits Once Again!
After the Kansas Supreme Court ruled abortion is legal in the state constitution, the GOP has tried to change the makeup of the court. A measure to directly elect justices, thereby making it about money & partisanship failed yesterday. #ProudBlue#Voices4Victory #OneV1 www.nbcnews.com/politics/202...
Kansas voters reject GOP-backed measure to directly elect state Supreme Court justices
The Republican-controlled Legislature referred a constitutional amendment to the primary ballot after the state Supreme Court ruled against the party on issues like abortion.

One soldier's concerns about soldiers’ survival in the drone-dominated combat of the future initially led him to start tinkering with electronics he bought online. Now, he's putting the finishing touches on a drone detector that soldiers can wear like protective gear. Learn more:

If you're having a bad day, please realize that you're having a much better day than Max Miller's comms team.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 20h ago🤯 Rep. Max Miller's interview with Jake Tapper was one of the most self-destructive things I've ever witnessed on cable news. Here's the whole thing:
It’s terrifying that deranged chaos agent RFK Jr admitted on national tv that he has no idea how to stop a future pandemic and what’s worse is that he truly doesn’t give a fuck either way. We went from having top scientific medical experts leading US Health to this looney basket.
📌Susan Collins is voting "no" on the repulsive Blanche because she has been given political cover by Thune. Her vote doesn't matter. This isn't a heroic decision, it is pure politics, and whether anybody wants to admit it or not it's how she has survived like a parasite in that chamber for 30 years.
Senate to confirm a rioter sympathizer as AG?? PATHETIC!! Full breakdown — rioter payments, Max Miller, Todd Blanche, Epstein survivors: www.standingourground.us/p/theyre-pay...
They're paying the rioters. They're protecting the abusers. And nobody's stopping them.
A typical week for the Republican Party

It’s Worse Than You Think for the Middle Class
Since Nixon, Republicans have shifted wealth from working Americans to the morbidly rich. Dems should repeat that simple affordability message everywhere, every day, without apology or hesitation…

🔥 Here's Whitehouse's entire remarkable speech opposing Blanche: "What's left of this committee when we don't demand straight answers? How many times has DOJ been asked what became of the $50k that the FBI reported it handed to Homan? ... our R colleagues see no evil, hear no evil, & speak no evil."

Minnesota will stand as a firewall against any and all attacks on reproductive freedom. We were the first state to establish an ironclad right to abortion after the Dobbs decision and we will remain an island of freedom for those seeking to make their own healthcare decisions.
FactPost@factpostnews.bsky.social · yesterdayActing AG Todd Blanche plans to outlaw abortion nationwide: We're working to get solutions so that the Dobbs decision becomes permanent in every single state. We're putting policies in place so that states can't do things like mail abortion drugs. We will have victory, and it will be permanent.
Founders: We made the legislature Article I on purpose. The Constitution gives Congress oversight powers and requires the president to faithfully execute laws. And Congress is the only one with power to override or remove officials from other branches. Cornyn: What I presuppose is… maybe it doesn’t

Digital Warrior - Combat Disinfo@digitalwarrior.bsky.social · yesterday1/ Republicans are running a psych operation on Democrats. They warn us not to nominate populists. But leaked GOP memos prove they’re actually terrified of populist candidates. Trump said it himself: Bernie was the one he didn’t want to face. 🧵 #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy
I am sorry to say this but I do not think that Chuck Schmuer and Haychim Jeffries are our best marketing faces. We need energized people who take bold stances.
