​With the midterms coming up & everything that has happened the last 9 months, I felt like I needed to post something. Ignorantly, in the past, I only voted in presidential elections. Now I am voting in any election I can. Alex stood up for his community so now it is time we stand up & fight back.

Ashley Hinson hired the Golden Girls 2.0 from Florida to play “concerned Iowa women” in her new ad.

Raskin: "When historians look back on this miserable period of our history, they might say that the first problem was disregarding all those women who told us back in 2016 that they had been sexually harassed or assaulted by Donald Trump."

Donald needs some new material. His tired bag of tricks is almost empty. And the people stupid enough to believe this were *always* going to vote for him anyway.

If your response to this is the 2/3 conviction requirement, thank you, but, I know. That said, (1) there is a lot more to this than the final vote and (2) we — Trump, Democrats, Republicans, the country — are in a very different place than we were in Trump 1.0.

JFC. Did no one tell her what the Trump administration is trying to do to California, literally as they spoke?

Trump on Somalia: "Remember I made the statement? Shithouse countries ... all they do is go around and kill people all day long. Pirate ships. Kill people. I'm surprised they can pirate the ship"

We should all support this effort. www.zeffy.com/en-US/donati...

We are facing a crisis of impunity. That's why we built The Rule of Law Project — to investigate unlawful conduct by federal officials, and work with state and local prosecutors to hold them to account. Watch Mark Blumberg and Brad Adams launch this new initiative on MSNOW with Nicolle Wallace.

Courage: 1. Retribution: 0.

It's no longer left versus right, liberals versus conservatives or even Democrat versus Republican. It’s now democracy versus oligarchy. Freedom versus dictatorship. Right versus wrong. Know the stakes. The midterms are here.

She said it was God’s will for her to ultimately end up with Paxton, proving that God can sometimes be cruel.

If we lived in a sane country, he'd be forced to flee the country to a non-extradition nation using a fake passport.

You're a sucker if you're not getting the wealth. I'm looking at you MAGA audience

Trump’s regular efforts to subvert American democracy haunt our politics, but from a legal standpoint, they've been failures

Just when you thought that things couldn’t get anymore weird, they do something like this 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

Every rally he goes to he talks about the candidate’s ass, so she probably wanted to get out of there quick before he began his evaluation.

#Auspol, if you want to hear truthful, kind, informed, and up-to-date commentary on what is unfolding daily in the USA, I strongly recommend David Rothkopf as a trusted source, whether it be directly or via @thedsrnetwork.bsky.social. My household listens to them every day.

Absofuckinglutely!

The bad: measles cases in the U.S. are more than double what they were last year, with 96% of cases being unvaccinated. The good: Pennsylvania has so far administered 14,000 more vaccines this year than last. The dream: The anti-vax movement is deservedly shunned and everyone gets vaccinated.

One of the infectious disease physicians who I always read, & whose views/guidance I trust the most, is @jakescottmd.bsky.social This is a superb Op-Ed, laying out how RFK Jr’s latest vaccine injury initiative is designed to DISTORT data on vaccines—he’s collecting biased data to fit his opinions

Now THIS is awesome public health (and, yes, it is everything that RFK Jr and his anti-vaccine MAHA movement are not)

There was a time, not so long ago, when Republican George W. Bush appointed a Muslim doctor and outstanding scientist Elias Zerhouni, born and raised in Algeria, as Director of the National Institutes of Health (nominated 6 months after 9/11).

A party of performative morons disinterested in policy.

Warsh has made a point of saying less. His Fed colleagues are speaking as much as they were a year ago “It’s probably the worst of all possible outcomes,” says @claudia-sahm.bsky.social. “Nobody can force him to talk for the committee. And frankly, he can’t force other committee members to shut up"

"It is a disturbing and shameful abandonment not only of a would-be ally in need, but of the best and noblest traditions of American foreign policy dating back centuries."

Harvard keeps graduating complete idiots. Maybe it’s time to cut down those legacy admits.

Kind of funny, in an Ancient Greek Hell kind of way, that this guy handed Trump the presidency in 2016, and as a reward Trump is kicking him in the teeth forever. www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...
