Lula has been reelected president, Brazilian media has now called. An extraordinary comeback for the left-wing politician who trailed by 2 points in round 1 but managed to hold off Flávio Bolsonaro, the former president's son.

🔥 @rolandsmartin.bsky.social encourages Black voters to back @abdulelsayed.bsky.social: “We cannot play games with this election.”

I prefer the incremental solution that can be implemented through bare-majority legislation (240 Supreme Court justices) to Third Way's radical plan, which requires fully amending the Constitution (term limits)

Good morning 💙 I absolutely LOVE this initiative from celeb activists/resisters. Following their, and Major Watson's, example: Lets all take the oath and add our voice! "Without any mental reservation"! #WeThePeople #StopTrump #ImpeachConvictRemove #resist #GTS

Okay, this got me.

I’ve shared this before, but it bears repeating. A lot.

Okay everyone. Here’s the YouTube interview with @jimmykimmel.com and @jamestalarico.bsky.social You know what to do. Watch it. Share it. Donate. Bury them. youtu.be/WLDE9LrGpNk?...

Trump posted a map on Truth Social labeling the Strait of Hormuz as "New U.S. Territory". In response, the Consulate General of the Islamic Republic of Iran mocked the statement online by sharing a satirical map labeling the United States as a new territory of Iran, leaving out California. 🤣

“A single-payer universal health care system could cover every American, save more than 100,000 lives a year, and still cost $1 trillion less than the system it would replace, according to a new preprint study led by researchers at the Yale School of Public Health.” ysph.yale.edu/news-article...

India's power system just passed a historic tipping point: www.reuters.com/commentary/r...

“A system that covers everyone, costs $1 trillion less, and averts more than 100,000 deaths annually requires no new discovery to implement, only enactment,” wrote the study authors. 2/

I am with @samhalpert.bsky.social; just impeach Miller, Vought and Hegseth, and then after that is done, Trump. You have to make the point that we don’t need any more information b/c the whole Administration is so infested with open and naked malfeasance, we can charge and figure it out.

Let's talk about AOC as a young scientist & her award winning research on antioxidants & C. elegans, a standard roundworm model. She grew up in the Bronx. Ethnically Puerto Rican, her dad Sergio, an architect, died when she was 19. Her mother cleaned houses, drove a school bus. Working class.

Wolf: What hasn’t been discussed publicly, to my knowledge, is the fact that, in my opinion, President Trump committed a crime in negotiating the settlement agreement in this case and it’s possible that Mr. Blanche would be found to be a co-conspirator in that crime. Let me try to explain…

So now the next step is to find out what Capital One's months-long anti-money laundering review by professionals with decades of law enforcement experience discovered about Trump's 300+ accounts...

Zohran Mamdani rebukes Trumpism with pro-immigrant speech for US’s 250th birthday

Major Jason Watson wore his Air Force uniform to the Capitol, named 13 service members killed by Trump's illegal strikes, and demanded impeachment. Capitol Police arrested him for it.
