If you’re wondering who exactly Trump and Republicans are looking out for…it’s probably not you. (@itep.org) Remember this.

I emailed Patrick Healy, assistant managing editor for standards and trust at NYT, to ask why their story about a House report with new details of rape allegations against the President of the United States included neither those details, nor a single use of the word "rape." archive.is/1s9AM

We warned President Trump and the MAGA Congress against passing the Big Betrayal Bill, knowing it would hurt hospitals in every part of our state. A new report shows Washington's hospitals will lose $6 billion due to their Medicaid cuts. That is devastating to our healthcare system.

A Texas in-person voter experienced a problem with a touchscreen voting machine. She selected a candidate, but the machine switched her selection to another candidate. She then pressed her desired candidate FIRMLY with her finger to make the machine work properly. #USDemocracy #MomSky #Texas #TX

60 people have now died in ICE custody since Trump's return to office. Our country is set to spend $268 BILLION on mass deportations and detentions through the end of Trump's term. Instead of death and cruelty, imagine what we could have invested that money in instead?

Lest we be in need of inspiration. Just sucks that we've left no choice for preceding generations. Shouldering every consequence since Reagan and before. Dems raise the roof. Repubs raze it to the ground. Blue, all the way through. Every ballot.
My reporting on the student movement in Serbia last summer. They kept at it, amazingly, for two years. And they won. snyder.substack.com/p/youth-prot...

Trump admin arrests Colorado priest. Incarcerates him for over a year. Judge orders him released without charges. They release him without the wheelchair he needs -- other prisoners have to bodily carry him out. He's now being tested for latent TB: www.newsfromthestates.com/article/colo...

So, a guy at my hub's work, who was also the Super for weekend shift, got arrested in Thurston Co, WA, for 1st deg rape of a child. 10 years ago, he was caught twice on security footage sneaking up on 10 year old girls and grabbing them inappropriately. David Christina. May he suffer and rot in jail

There was a fucking hole in our planet’s *atmosphere* Like a legit, no joke, “this will unravel our entire ecosystem” hole in the world, and then we fixed it by working together across national and political lines As a species we decided, “we will survive” Let’s do that some more
Social media loves talking about how everything is getting worse. But what’s something that you’ve seen get _better_ in your lifetime?
