Texas has the highest number of uninsured people and the most rural hospital closures in the country. If Greg Abbott wanted to lower healthcare costs for Texans, he would've done it in the twelve years he's been Governor.

Ignoring Gaza, being gop lite on immigration, and campaigning with Liz Cheney did more harm to the Democrats than wrongheaded people online saying not to vote.

Dr Oz: "We believe that 35 percent of the people using the Obamacare exchanges may not be legit. That's 5, 6 million people. We have to evaluate these numbers. They are extremely concerning."

Advice to @teamtalaricohq.bsky.social - don’t pivot on trans and don’t ignore it. You’ve been doing pretty solid on it. Fire back. Tell these freaks they’re not going to make this election about their weird obsessions with kids private parts.

when republicans inevitably try to say they never supported trump, just like they now pretend they never supported bush ii, we must constantly bring up shit like them calling him "daddy." we cannot ever turn the fucking page. throw the book.

Good. Love to see it. May every airport in America become a nightmare of lines. Maybe the TSA admin should call for the arrest and prosecution of the ICE agents who murdered Alex Pretti and Renee Good. That’d be a start.

US oil dependence is about empire, but it also necessitates alliances with authoritarian states the American people would not otherwise tolerate. The wind industry is a threat to the Saudis, it’s a threat to Israel, and it’s a threat to the military industrial complex.

Last month the NYT said AOC "struggled" to give an answer on Taiwan and quoted her with "uhs" and "ums" to make her look stupid Yesterday talking about Hormuz Trump claimed he's heard from "numerous countries" and said "uh" four times. The NYT deleted the "uhs" and paraphrased him to look smarter:

"We started a war of aggression for no reason & commenced it by accidentally bombing an elementary school & killing over 100 kids." That simple fact is so horrific that it's just kind of bouncing on the surface of our collective consciousness. We can't absorb its full implications & significance.

The Post and Courier, which is leading the investigative work on the woman who accused Trump of sexually assaulting her when she was a child, looks into the woman’s FBI interview and substantiates many details through public records

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

"A woman who claims she was abused as a minor by both Epstein and Trump has given the FBI vivid accounts that include aspects of her life corroborated by the The Post and Courier through public records ... she claimed Trump forced her to commit a sex act on him sometime around 1984."

I am back in D.C. to hear from cruel Kristi Noem on why she is complicit in the chaos happening at DHS, vote on a War Powers Resolution to rein Donald Trump in, and vote against a DHS funding bill that does nothing to address the reckless actions we’re seeing from ICE. The work continues.

funny though that swing voters were incandescently furious at Biden for inflation largely caused by a global pandemic, because they imagined him pressing the "make prices go up" button. then they elected Trump who is literally doing that. getting a little chuckle out of that

Trump’s “Operation Metro Surge” was a militarized campaign of fear that treated immigrants as criminals and weaponized the federal government against U.S. citizens. We need independent investigations, real accountability, and to abolish ICE. My op-ed:

the fact the president of the united states is even thinking about asserting emergency powers to disrupt an election - just a few years after he incited an armed coup attempt - should be the top issue. but the media mostly shrugs and the opposition doesnt focus on it.

Hilarious. No brand has more throughly salted the earth of its reputation *in its home state* than Target. The Target CEO who will see that recovery has not been born. Target is Greg Bovino's preferred bathroom stop for generations to come. That's it.

Would you have protested when the Nazis said they were repurposing buildings in Auschwitz to house detainees? Will you protest humans concentrated into for-profit warehouses without due process and held indefinitely in inhumane conditions? Georgia, here’s your chance. Links below 👇

Russian oppositioner Boris Nemtsov in 2014: "Instead of focusing on building up Russia, instead of making sure Russia doesn’t die out, instead of investing in roads, education.., the regime focuses on the worst traits in humans- meanness,hatred,lies,wars" Nemtsov was killed by the Kremlin in 2015

It's unchartered, but we can see the terrain: the territory ahead includes masked secret police taking people to concentration camps but not new vaccines. That's our reward for a system in which fewer than 20 people, all of them deranged and malicious, control over $3 trillion.

The pace at which US wealth concentration is rising is simply staggering The concentration of AI wealth into the hands of a few tech barons + plutocratic capture ==> unchartered territory

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

When the gop pushed for Obamacare repeal they didn’t open their ask with “cut some subsidies.” They asked for killing the policy and campaigned on it when they didn’t get it. Democrats think that negotiation means their opening big should be “reasonable” and that’s dumb.
