10 days left to elect some of the most battle-tested fighters the Democratic Party has ever seen. From Georgia to New Hampshire to Arizona, the folks on the ballot this November are focused and ready to deliver. Let's get it done.

Elon Musk has spent at least $276 million since July to boost Republican candidates, a record-breaking sum. That’s just 0.028% of his total net worth. Oligarchs can rig the system at the expense of everyone else, and only spend pennies doing so. We must get Big Money out of politics.

The person who thinks that he has the ability to decide which science to fund out of hundreds of subfields is exactly the person who should not make that decision. There is a reason that expert committees of scientists review and give recommendations for funding. No one person can know all of it.

LMFAO -- Trump is holding an event at the White House right now but there's no audio because the press pool isn't there. The Newsmax host notes that this is an example of Trump's attacks on the press "backfiring just a little bit"

So a court told USPS to stop screening mail ballots,& instead of stopping, they just went quieter about it? A whistleblower says one glitchy barcode scan can wipe out thousands of ballots at once, right before the midterms. That should make your blood boil. #CorruptTrumpRegime

Public reporting indicates the Trump administration is proposing a deal to give a part of the Yosemite National Park to a private developer. That land belongs to the American people. We will not allow this scheme to proceed — period.

on the one hand, fuck them on the other hand the supreme court explicitly signing off on Ballroom is actually a pretty good weapon to use when it's time to argue for court expansion, and does far less damage than most of their rulings

SCOTUS says Trump can keep building the ballroom. 5-4 with Roberts leading the liberals in dissent: www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

Hillary Clinton compares White House decor under Trump to Saddam Hussein’s palaces, calling the excessive gold embellishments "tacky" & a reflection of "narcissistic personality." 🏛️✨ "Instead of how to get out of Iran... his mind goes to where can I add more gold?"

Kamala Harris: We have a president taking America into a war the people did not ask for, spending billions of dollars without paying attention to the people right here in America who are losing their health coverage because of policies they are pushing to pay for a tax cut for the rich…

Look, LLMs don’t create or originate anything. They parse input, reference it against all available data sources & assemble an answer to said input. To think that they can replace the originality & creativity of humans simply shows you the bias of those who created them.

The president is a liar. He lies constantly & without hesitation. His lies about American elections are among his most dangerous b/c they are meant to convince a susceptible public that democratic outcomes cannot be trusted. They are antidemocratic lies in service of holding onto power. He’s a liar!

With the current federal administration upending years of environmental protections, local communities are stepping up. That’s why we’re supporting a lawsuit defending local governments’ ability to set energy standards and building codes that prioritize renewable energy and limit fossil fuels.

As a research scientist, I am very upset about this attack on science in the US. The current administration is hellbent on destroying everything including scientific research.

🚨 HEADS UP: If you haven't submitted a comment on the OMB proposal yet, there's still time - but it's running out! There are only 6 days left to push back against Russell Vought's attempt to give political appointees unprecedented control over federal research funding. Take Action: zurl.co/O3v0m

Jack Smith interview with @nicollewallace.bsky.social is a beacon of hope for those of us following the attack on the rule of law. Thank you Jack for showing lawyers and the country what courage and integrity look like. ⚖️

MS NOW EXCLUSIVE: "There is no way I'm going to be intimidated." Former special counsel Jack Smith tells @nicollewallace.bsky.social why it's important for him to speak out.

Any other time this massive corruption would have led to impeachment and criminal charges.

Atrocious! Not just abandoning vital research but pulling up the actual sensors!

The judge wrote in his 94-page ruling that it was "crystal clear" that the arts complex was named for the late president John F. Kennedy. He also ruled that the center could not wind down its programming and close for two years of renovations – at least for now n.pr/4uIQCD8

These stories are going to drive him insane, but it’s only fair that Trump’s failing health gets the same scrutiny as Biden’s did

Reiner: "I'll be interested to see what testing they do today because if they repeat some of the scans that have been done in the last year or so, that tells us they are surveilling something and that's never been disclosed to us."

Had a wonderful drive to the Oregon coast yesterday. Such a wonderful view of the tide pools at Haystack rock in Cannon beach. There were lots of people there but everybody respected the signs and there were some volunteers with binoculars and stories.

The Trump administration is lying again. They’re already drilling and moving forward on Trump’s giant gold “Independence Arch” before Congress even approved it, just like they tore down the East Wing for Trump’s gilded ballroom project. That’s the MO: do it first, lie, deflect. 1/2

Unbelievable! The Republicans can just do whatever but when Dems fight back, they don't want to?

I fail to comprehend why the state assembly can’t simply use the new map under the legal theory that the OG state constitutional amendment the voters changed wasn’t posted for 90 days either.
