Jon Husted looked this mother in the eye, and promised he wouldn't vote to cut her daughter's health care. One week later, that's exactly what he did.
Dr. Abdul El-Sayed: Rep. Haley Stevens and I shared a call this morning. She loves democracy like I love democracy. Whatever differences we might've had in the primary pale in comparison to what unifies us. All of us have to come together to make sure that we never let Mike Rogers see the US Senate.
"I shouldnt be at 42% approval" Good news! You're not.

The Max Miller interviews will continue until morale improves
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 9h agoRep. Max Miller on his ex-wife: "It's sad to see that the only person this affects is our daughter, someone I don't think she cares about very much"
Abdul El-Sayed’s lead is shakier than a cup of cafeteria Jell-O
Two more GOP amendments go down to crushing defeats, both in MO. #4 would have made future ballot initiatives impossible to pass by requiring winning a majority statewide *and* in each congressional district. #5 would have eliminated the state income tax.
🚨 Kansas voters once again reject GOP efforts to trick them into losing abortion rights. The no vote prevails on an amendment that wouldve replaced the indy commission with direct (partisan) elections for Supreme Court justices — which the AG promised would "slowly & quietly" let GOP stock the court
When even your Wiki “early life and education” section is incriminating.
![Miller grew up in Northeast Ohio and graduated from Shaker Heights High School in 2007, where friends described him as "very belligerent, very angry," and
"super misogynistic." It was during his time in high school that, at a party, he pushed a female classmate through a door and down a staircase when she rejected his attempts to touch her.?! He attended the University of Arizona from August 2007 until December 2009. In August 2010, he transferred to Cleveland State University, where he earned a bachelor's degree in history in 2013.?]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:kdphmaoqeaouax2kis27556e/bafkreiac4gfvwoqmfgtqgc6u2agle7jsvyx3cn3ql3tmqzhtnrvhk2ac7q)
🔥 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."
Whitehouse on Blanche: "Today is a sad and embarrassing day"

Whitehouse: "Today I think is a sad and embarrassing day for this committee as it looks like on a party-line vote we are going to advance out of this committee probably the most discreditable person ever to seek the office of attorney general. Let's start with the Epstein files ... "
That’s what you get when you vote Republican. And this November, we’re gonna choose something else

Lots of really horrible Republicans in what would normally be safe red seats, but the thing about wave elections is Democrats have a good chance of knocking out some of the worst ones. In 2018, Kendra Horn and Joe Cunningham both won Trump+13 seats. And we have good candidates you can donate to!
Continuously a race I have my eye on, OK05 is R+17.5 and is moving our way. Bice has been a bit overrated in terms of incumbent strength
@thependulumcometh.bsky.social · 4d agoNew poll of OK-05 (R-Bice). Challenger Jena Nelson is tied at 39-39 but then leads an informed ballot test 44-40. Sample ID is R+19! jenanelson.com/press-releas... Kind of an insane internal I don't see getting much motion.
A good reminder of how utterly useless any and all Republican senators are

I voted for Trump three times so far. But don’t you dare call me a Trump supporter
If ICE detained an immigrant with this history of violence and unlawfulness, it would be all over FOX News and DHS's social media accounts. Instead this is a current GOP member of congress who remains in good standing with his colleagues and party.

Went to an arcade in Halifax that had a framed portrait of Shigeru Miyamoto looking like he's about to be at the center of a murder mystery in the pacific northwest
Things I and friends have done to calm an angry abusive man from further escalating and killing us or our children: -Smiled -Kept normal schedules in order not to trigger a fight -Appeased with kind acts (cooking, cleaning, favors) -Forced friendly tones and words
The Bulwark@thebulwark.com · 3d agoRep. Max Miller: "My former wife has claimed that during a custody exchange at my home that day, I assaulted her…If I had assaulted her, would she have offered to cook me dinner six days later?"
we are talking about covid because their base is pissed and telling pollsters they won’t show up and the racism dial is already turned as far as it can go but they think maybe there’s a little blood to be squeezed still from the fauci stone. that’s it. that’s the only reason we are doing this.
you should be in jail, but instead you are describing an incredibly common abuse dynamic where the victim tries to keep the abuser happy to avoid another explosion this guy makes me sick
The Bulwark@thebulwark.com · 3d agoRep. Max Miller: "These are incredibly serious criminal accusations. If these accusations were true, I would be in jail — I would be. My former wife would not have been offering to cook me dinner and inviting me to playgrounds. Think about that."
