Historic opioid settlements were supposed to be a lifeline for underserved communities. But much of that money is flowing to law enforcement.

Fear is contagious, but so is HOPE! Grateful to spend time discussing the upcoming midterm election with @hcrichardson.bsky.social and the need for everyone to exercise their constitutional right to vote!

Good luck, Mr. Smead.

Don’t do it!

The man who took out full page ads demanding the death penalty for five Black and Latino teenagers falsely accused of rape is out here worried that the seven majority white Cornell frat boys accused of rape "won't get a fair shake".

Florida voters are fed up. They made it clear that they want someone who will fight for the change that actually helps their lives such as lower costs, higher wages, Medicare for All, and a people-powered government that prioritizes families.

Feels like billionaires are trying to sort democrats into far left and far right factions. Keep your eyes out for it!

GO BUTLER, PA! Democrat Brandon Dukes appears to have FLIPPED a house seat beating Timko by 88 votes in a special election. Trump won the district by 19. The last republican rep won it in 2024 by 30 points. Rs outnumber Ds 2 to 1 in the district. butlerradio.com/dukes-upsets...

If you voted against Missouri Amendments 4 and 5, you have to finish the job by voting against every Republican on your ballot in November.

Aside from support from within his own party, Ossoff has garnered a notable amount of support from conservatives both in and out of Georgia. www.usatoday.com/story/news/s...

When Justice is blind, bad guys take the fifth. When justice is corrupt, good guys take the fifth. Feel free to share.

If you're an 8th District voter have you ever seen Jason Smith in person? Are you fed up with his shilling for Trump or his votes to cut Medicaid, SNAP, public education, rural hospitals while bringing next to nothing to the district? We can change that. Vote Barnitz.

GALLEGO: Would you say as a former auditor you pride yourself on catching waste? DENNIS: Yes G: Let's do a test. Is $600m on a ballroom, half paid by taxpayers, is a good fiscal decision? D: Oh, I'm not going to get involved in what the WH is doing G: As HUD CFO, this is literally the job

This is Colorado GOP nominee for Governor, Victor Marx, claiming that he can exorcise demons over the phone "like Jesus did and banish the demons." (So, he thinks he's like Jesus. Wow, just wow...)

Mr. Bezos, Go where there are no people, build your own electrical grid, dig wells, build a landing strip and don’t interfere with Mother Nature.

John Ossoff. He’s a keeper.

I wonder what would happen if she shaved her head. 😣😩😡

I will never understand a woman voting for a Republican. Don’t you understand they would literally sign your death warrant to force you to deliver a pregnancy? They stand with rapists. They stand with domestic abusers. They stand with pedophiles.  Women are second class citizens to Republicans.

While President Ineptstein and RFK jr. defund most of our research ability….

Josh Hokit’s slur against Michelle Obama concluded an evening already teeming with vulgarity. "Let reminders of it attach itself to every oligarch, Republican, Trump family member, and corporation that went along with this cage fight."

It’s sad and scary that we can all predict where this slide is headed before reading about it and that the media treats it as business as usual: ‘And then his speech slid into a fantasy rewriting of the history of his war on Iran and his decision to launch it.’

If anyone knows how *really awful* and guilty you are, it's your defense attorney.

Perfect. Thank you, Governor Hochul.
