Last night's MI Senate primary results are an absolute bombshell for the DNC. The losing candidate had endorsements from party darlings, 4 terms, and outspent the winner ~a zillion to one. And they still lost. The People are done being sleepwalked into fascism with benign neoliberal neglect.

It Appears That the US Military Accidentally Killed Everybody on Board a Civilian Medevac Flight in New Mexico
A days-long electronic warfare drill was one of the causes behind the loss of a four-passenger medevac flight.

Dr. Fauci is a hero. He really is. He helped guide America thru a mass death event. Millions more could have died but they did not, thanks to him. Everyone over 70 owes him a debt. It is disgusting that we live in a country that not only dishonors him but actively smears his good name.

Trump shattered ethics norms. Will voters trust Democrats to fix them?
Democrats are making the case that now is the time to tackle anti-corruption reforms — to serve as a check on Donald Trump and to overhaul a system voters say is co-opted against their interests.

Very upset to learn that Vincent Belorgey (Kavinsky) has passed. His music is, was, special to me. His 2013 EP "Odd Look" changed my tastes in music forever and opened my world to an entirely new family tree of music. What a loss. 😢 www.franceinfo.fr/culture/musi...

The vast majority of our outlets are owned by right-wing billionaires and last night our most prominent political reporters spent an hour chuckling along with a clearly senile Republican president as he insulted them incoherently. Here's why our media has a liberal bias problem.
BREAKING: Justice Department agrees to withdraw subpoenas issued to New York Times reporters in leak investigation related to new Air Force One jet. Withdrawal of subpoenas follows hearing before NY federal judge, who indicated he was inclined to quash the subpoenas.

The platonic ideal of sports opinion reporting. Taking an angle that deepens the humanity between us, reporting about how that ripple effect manifests in different cultures and through different lenses and sharing personal experiences that relate everything back to the micro level. Great essay.
This sums up for me what is so uplifting about the World Cup. For a brief span of time people all over the globe connected for the joy of the game. Even if you weren’t watching, I hope you felt that ripple of connection in the zeitgeist. A Billion Eyes. One Shared Experience.
Anytime some sort of "deal" is announced for the U.S., I wonder which member of Trump's Mafia is getting the benefit. Since this is KSA: is it Kushner?

Our two investigations into Madison Square Garden are now unpaywalled and free for anyone to read.
Yesterday, WIRED learned that Madison Square Garden was suing us for our accurate reporting. We stand by our work. That’s why we’re removing the paywall from two of the MSG stories they don’t want you to read, making them free for everyone.
I wish there were a director's cut of Hail Mary that was an hour longer. If you've seen the movie and read the book, I think you'll agree. Good adaptation, fun movie, but I longed for more time exploring what happens to the supporting cast. [Avoiding spoilers]
ICYMI: The docs that Trump declassified yesterday prove without question that Russia criminally conspired WITH TRUMP to subvert the 2020 elections. China *also* helped him. These are straight from last night's doc drop. Did these fools not read what it said? #trump #politics #USelections #natsec
Trump is 0-43 in court when required by law to disclose actual proof of his election claims. Anyways, he's raped children and is mentioned by name in the Epstein Files over one million times.
The water is boiling and America is the frog. This is very serious. Right wing Fascists, including the Nazi party, universally attempt to criminalize dissenting political opinion to consolidate power. It is a hallmark of right wing dictatorships. Now coming to you live from the White House.
This is the Federal Government weaponized against political dissenters. It’s a direct attack on the Constitution. It means the vital resources of branches meant for defense WILL BE TURNED AGAINST CITIZENS who criticize this regime. Watch for them trying to bypass the courts, that’s the real danger.
It was CBP Agent David Brouillette that MURDERED Sebastian Duran Guerrero in Maine. Brouillette called his ex-wife to help with a coverup. Agents David Brouillette, Jonathan Ross, Jesus Ochoa, Brian Palacios, and Raymundo Gutierrez are killers, walking free, who must be tried for capital murder.
He reportedly called his ex-wife to ask her to "lie for him" and to "cover for his character."
dear democrats: anything short of a concerted policy of scorched earth retribution against every one of these criminals, from the president down to the interns betting on Kalshi, means the end of 'the American experiment'

The payment is an admission of guilt. This should be the biggest news on every platform.
