Jenifer Lewis said it best: 35.9 million people sat out 2024, and we donβt let that shit happen again. Not this time. Not with 90 days on the clock and everything on the line. Speak out, knock louder, make it impossible to ignore. Itβs on all of us to flip it all blue. #BlueWaveIn90Days

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
Corporations spent $60 million trying to defeat Dr. Abdul El-Sayed, who overcame a 10-to-1 spending deficit and won anyway. The man ran on simple ideas: end aid to Israel, Medicare for All, and end big money in politics. The people want solutions to problems. Thatβs it.
BREAKING: U.S. wages and salaries fall to 43% of gross domestic income, near the lowest share since records began in 1929β¦ Youβre not imagining it, youβre being deliberately ripped off, by the Epstein class. Simple as that. Mad yet?! πβ¨
πSusan 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.
Never forget: republicans not only sold their souls, they sold out the country, the rule of law and your freedom. Itβs their job to rein him in. They chose not to.
Microsoft: $101 BILLION in profits. $12.5 BILLION in tax breaks. $176 BILLION in stock buybacks. 4,800 workers fired this week. 9,000 workers fired last year. Please don't tell me trickle-down economics works. It never did. Nothing trickles down.
Americaβs chain of command is just billionaires tugging on Trumpβs leash from different directions.
'The proposal ... would cut the number of Election Day sites to 176 β about a 45% decrease from 316 day-of voting sites available in the 2022 midterms. For early voting, there would be 42 polling sites instead of the 50 available in 2022.' #VoteThemOut
Lon Burnam, a former Texas House Democrat, was carried out of a chaotic Tarrant County commissioners court meeting by deputies. The meeting centered around a proposed reduction in voting site locations for the November elections. bit.ly/4c01rcy
A month after Air Force Major Jason Watson was arrested on the Capitol steps calling for Trump and Vanceβs impeachment, D.C. prosecutors have declined to pursue the criminal charge against him. He still faces action from the Air Force.
Iβve been thinking about a couple I met, Larry and Wendy, from Galveston, Texas and how their postcards written by hand to people in North Carolina and Texas are acts of patriotism in these dark times.
Sunday thought: Real Patriotism
From Texas to North Carolina

Wicked men in high office lie and corrupt the law to serve this presidentβs schemes against your voting rights.
The US National Debt has now crossed $40 trillion dollars. That's an increase of nearly $4 trillion since Trump took office. Remember those campaign promises about cutting spending? Remember how DOGE gutted education, highways, health care, and other areas? So, where is all that money going?
Imagine getting roasted hard and the judge basically says, βYeahβ¦ thatβs fair.β He lost the lawsuit, and now itβs part of the public record.
RFK Jr: Dana, you probably don't understand this because you're not a scientist BASH: Well you're not either! RFK Jr: I know you're flustered now
The rest of your natural lifeβand then some. That's how long we'll be cleaning up the mess of Trump and MAGAism. The nation as it was before is lost. It won't return. What we seek to save now isn't what used to be. It'll be something else altogether. It'll be what we make it.

Can someone explain how Axios could publish this and not note that DOJ has lost 18 of these cases and not won a single one? 0-18 is smart brevity.
Why on earth are we sending our nationβs seniors yet ANOTHER bill? This is inexcusable. Trump is literally making prescription coverage more expensive for millions of seniors.
Exclusive | Trump Administration to End Medicare Drug Plan Subsidy
Program that held down premiums wonβt be renewed for 2027, resulting in higher costs for some seniors.
