'She turned her focus sharply to identifying and exposing the presence of bias in psychology. Her core thesis was that it was flawed because most research was based on men’s experiences and treated male behaviour as the “normal” standard, leading to distorted and damaging views of women' ...

Today I traveled to Selma with my colleagues in Congress to take a stand against the radical right-wing plot to suppress Black political representation and dismantle our democracy by gutting the Voting Rights Act. We’ve made too much progress in this country to go backwards. We won’t be silenced.

For years, the biggest criticism of renewables was simple: “What happens when the sun isn’t shining?” The answer is increasingly: battery storage. 24/7 solar power is no longer theoretical. In some places, it is becoming economic reality.

When we took office, NYC had a $12B deficit. Today it’s zero. And we didn’t close that gap on the backs of working people. We closed it while funding parks, libraries, safer streets, & public housing. Call it Pothole Politics or Democratic Socialism: We are government that delivers for the people.

Mockler: He took office and spiked 2.9% inflation, up to 3.8%. Gas prices are up to $4.50 in most states, and he did this all while stripping insurance away from 10 million Americans. I think the most impressive part is the deficit hasn't decreased at all.

The DOJ filed a lawsuit against Denver CO, alleging the city’s 37-year-old assault weapons ban violates the 2nd Amd. Denver restricts certain semi-automatic AR-15 type rifles and high-capacity magazines. Denver’s mayor says they’ve kept 'weapons of war' off their streets.🧵 #DemsAbroad

OMG.. One of the Epstein victims testified this morning in W. Palm Beach that she was being assaulted and raped WHILE EPSTEIN WAS ON HOUSE ARREST. How much was Alex Acosta paid to let him continue his crimes? We know he's filth and was paid off.

Twenty-plus years after Epstein's arrest, Congress is finally holding a hearing in Palm Beach asking: who made him a deal? Who else was involved? Why are their names shielded? Frankel: probably hundreds of women were abused because prosecutors treated child survivors like prostitutes.

I cannot emphasize this enough: everything we are seeing right now with voting rights, and especially the racist gerrymandering we’re seeing in the South, makes complete sense if you remember it was all in Project 2025. This was part of the plan. It’s white supremacy and too many ignored it.

172 reports of sexual abuse and assault at the Tacoma’s Northwest ICE Detention Center. And instead of accountability, survivors were met with failed investigations, ignored evidence, and a system that protects private prisons over human lives.

You’ve probably had your limit at this point, please read this explanation of what happened yesterday and share it widely. It’s more important than ever to make sure people understand why we have to vote for democracy and we have to get started now if we want to be able to vote.

SCOTUS, which ordered Alabama to create a second Black opportunity district just 3 years ago, has lifted that order a week before the primary. The Purcell principle says courts shouldn't permit chaos too close to an election—it's now an open question whether there will even be a primary on schedule.

SCOTUS' Alito fell for bad data supplied by DOJ when writing his recent opinion on Article 2 of the Voting Rights Act. Untrue that more Black voters cast ballots than White voters in the past 3 elections. Faulty data was presented in court to achieve results. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...
