BREAKING: Tennessee legislators just voted to further erode the rights of Black voters across the state by redrawing our congressional districts. Voting rights and representation are not up for debate. We’ll see Governor Lee in court.

When Trump pulled out of the international nuclear agreement with Tehran in 2018, Iran lacked even a single bomb's worth of uranium. Since then, it accumulated 22,000 pounds of enriched uranium. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

I don't know how widely understood it is that the US is now conditioning lifesaving, utterly essential health aid to African countries on access to minerals and other ~sweet deals. I probably only know about it bc of the @unbreaking.org team that tracks it. healthpolicy-watch.news/ghana-rebuff...

Reminder - the White House already has enormous entertaining spaces, ones that can host many hundreds of people and that have been sufficient for Presidents for generations. Am w/Graff here - Trump's manic desire for this illegal, unnecessary "ballroom" suggests dark, illiberal aspirations.

Trump’s “complicated relationship with the Bible” is a lot like my complicated relationship with Charlize Theron

Trump: "Millions of American small businesses, including corner stores. What is a corner store? I've never heard that term. I know what a corner store is but I've never heard it described-- a corner store. Who the hell wrote that?"

Ossoff: "Trump apparently promised pardons for entire WH staff, which is what you do when you run it like a casino. Maybe the West Wing is too busy placing bets on the war to care, but American are getting hurt...in Trump’s America the well-connected get stock tips & everybody else makes sacrifices"

Trump quote for the ages: “you don’t need a backup plan.”

Trump’s latest comments on Iran make clear he’s still trying to bullshit his way through it

PSA: *reporting* Israel is bombing “Hezbollah” in Lebanon is like saying Israel is only bombing “Hamas” in Gaza — when we can all see them hitting civilians, apartment buildings, ambulances etc… all you do when you use their preferred words is sacrifice your own credibility.
