SCOTUS will allow Alabama to use a congressional map that a lower court found intentionally discriminated against Black voters. A Court so fundamentally hostile to the rights of minority voters places it at odds with democracy itself. This is Chief Justice John Roberts’ legacy.

Ken Jones, a retired San Francisco firefighter, has died from lung cancer after Blue Shield denied his treatment claims Any 2028 candidate who does not champion universal healthcare is a non-starter. I will not vote for someone who kills my neighbors for "shareholder value." You can go burn in hell

They won't start with banning birth control. First they'll lie about it. Then dictate who can prescribe it, use it, fund it, in what forms, and for how long. Suddenly, your doctor won't call you back. I know this is what they'll do because it's what they're doing to transgender healthcare right now.

Pam Bondi is covering up the most heinous of all crimes-the rape & trafficking of young girls. She is complicit not only in the biggest corrupt, coverup in American history, but by participating in protecting these rapists & pedos, she has become one. Bondi belongs in prison. #ProudBlue #Pinks

My daughter in law's uncle is locked up at Alligator Alcatraz. He is from Cuba but is a legal resident and has been here since the late 70s/early 80s. My heart breaks for all of the people who have been locked up, assaulted and treated so badly.

Rand Paul tells me that he wants the full video of the Venezuelan boat strike released. “And I think if the public sees images of people clinging to boat debris and being blown up, I think that there is a chance that finally, the public will get interested enough in this to stop this.”

If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime. If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder. It’s that simple.

What the hell: The US accidentally invaded Mexico on Monday, storming a beach and planting DoD “restricted area” signs claiming the land for “the commander,” and triggered a standoff with armed Mexican security forces, all because Trump’s government can’t even identify a border on a map. 🧵 1/

ICE employee among 16 men arrested in Bloomington sex trafficking sting, police say. "When he was arrested, he said, 'I'm ICE, boys,'" Hodges said during a press conference Tuesday. "Well, unfortunately for him, we locked him up."

cbsnews.comICE employee among 16 men arrested in Bloomington sex trafficking sting, police sayAccording to Bloomington Police Chief Booker Hodges, officers started the three-day sting on Nov. 5. They used several methods to find people who were attempting to solicit a 17-year-old girl for sex.

#Genealogy #stubbornmystery This is the grave marker for Pocahontas Madora Whitten (nee Rogers). It's kind of hard to see, but at the bottom there's a carving that reads "she and her 3 little ones rest in peace". She would have been 29 at her death and I can't find anything about the

circumstances surrounding her death. It looks as if the part at the bottom was added after the grave stone was made. I'm guessing that she might have died in childbirth - giving birth to triplets? She had 4 children that survived. I can't find any obit or news article.

#Genealogy. I love going through old newspapers. There was a rabies outbreak in Memphis in 1931. My dad, aunt and grandparents all had to undergo rabies shots. Back then, they gave you multiple shots in your belly several times over the span of a week or weeks. My dad said it was painful.

Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

I refuse to support a funding bill that fails to address the Republican health care crisis. And make health insurance affordable. The American people clearly understand the stakes and the urgency. We must too. I'm voting no.

Schumer put the nail in his own coffin and the Democratic Leadership. It's done. Just a matter of time. Ditto Centrists. They have misread the moment and the rage of the people. Trump and MAGA will continue playing them because they know they are weak.
