BRENNAN: The DOJ lawsuit demands the Alaska result not be certified if voters are confused. The confusion is defined as Sen. Sullivan not winning. BLANCHE: That's not what it says BRENNAN: I'm quoting from it. You are telling them not to certify it. What right does the federal govt have?

NEW: Meta found a way to turn massive data centers into “pilot models” and cash in on a 1980s tax credit. The result? Meta avoided nearly $4 billion in taxes last year alone. Gift link. 👇 www.nytimes.com/2026/09/30/t...

Trump and my Republican colleagues are okay with immigration detention because these private, for-profit detention facilities are cutting chucks to their campaigns. It’s time to shut them down and end this cruelty and corruption.

It’s the plan.

This is what we’re poisoning Memphis for? 😕 gizmodo.com/grok-not-onl...

The Milo stuff is the perfect picture of fascism. You think you're protected because you go as big as you can on racism, you spend years harassing the movement's perceived enemies, you even disavow your own sexuality. They'll still throw you in a cage over the tiniest disagreement already forgotten.

Now you can boycott businesses that contract with ICE. theappeal.org/ice-local-bu...

Dear Canada, Besides Trump because he’s a child, not a single American thinks anything but the best of you all. He’s just a ball sack face

Food and tampons for sailors instead of torture gloves for thugs seems like an easy argument for a semi conscious Democrat to make.

Enshittification 💩

Private equity is price gouging firefighters now. Yes, you read that right. Firefighters. Is this the most evil thing they've done yet?

From his grotesque corruption to disastrous attacks on public health and safety, we're tracking Trump's all-out assault on the Constitution and the American people.

🧊✈️ ABORTED TAKEOFF ‼️😲 👉 An ICE-chartered Air Wisconsin jet (N454AW) aborts takeoff Sunday afternoon from Dallas Love Field. Nobody was harmed today, but in the event of an emergency the FAA standard window for airplane evacuation is 90 seconds—all but impossible when the passengers are shackled 👀

Puerto Rico’s water crisis: Drought and years of fragile infrastructure leave communities struggling for something as basic as clean water. The president of Puerto Rico is worthless! #PRWatercrisis #Pinks #USDemocracy

You've probably seen the CNN interview by now. Sign Stand Up For Science's impeachment campaign and get this clownishly unqualified quack out of office: www.standupforscience.net/impeach-rfkjr #standupforscience

Time to repost this yet again. #spokane

DOJ quietly changed a Bureau of Prisons rule to give the Attorney General more power over where federal inmates are housed. Why does Trump’s DOJ keep making things easier for Jeffrey Epstein’s accomplice?

PSA:

We joined 50+ groups & leaders today to urge U.S. grocery chains to only sell certified avocados to help curtail deforestation of Mexico’s Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve. Purchasing avocados from certified suppliers would protect monarch butterflies, local forests and communities in Michoacán.

NEW: Sen. John Hickenlooper is calling on Trump to personally pay back taxpayers for the millions he spent revamping the Reflecting Pool, now a cesspool of algae + chunks of blue sealant. “This was not a result of vandalism, but your administration’s incompetence." www.huffpost.com/entry/senato...

A few months ago I watched the film Aniara and have not been able to stop thinking about it. It’s an overt allegory about derangedly investing all of a community’s resources in an unachievable future and letting society rot to extinction in the present as a result.

#ProudBlue #Voices4Victory Sen Patty Murray: Every single Senate Republican helped enable this horrifying reality. You don’t get to act surprised by SCOTUS overturning Roe v Wade. You voted to confirm Kavanaugh. You are going to own the suffering & pain you’ve inflicted on the women in the country.

WTF are we even doing? 🫣

I’m a climate scientist. Let me fix this headline. “Nearly a century ago, scientists showed that burning fossil fuels warms the planet. Today, we know human emissions account for over 100% of the warming. Yet dark money and disinformation still work to keep Americans addicted to fossil fuels.”

Join @sufsseattle.bsky.social for this month's "Beer Reviewed Science," an evening of science, community, and advocacy to #StandUpForScience Featuring @neurochemequeen.bsky.social speaking on "Friends, Foes, and Finding Ways to Treat Brain Disease" 📆 Tues. May 26, 6:30-8:30 pm 🍻 Obec Brewing

"technology automates everything" is a story with two endings the utopian one where abundance allows everyone to live a life of leisure, and the dystopian one where all the benefits accrue to a small set of oligarchs and everyone else suffers the oligarchs are asking us to cheer for option B

#VotingRightsAct

I hate this for us.

Over 50% implemented.👇 And he’s only been in office for 16 months. 32 months to go! 😒 project2025.observer/en

BREAKING: SB 2471 has been signed into law! It’s the first of its kind in the nation and renders the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision irrelevant in Hawaii. This is a win for the movement to get big money, especially dark money, out of politics.

Every state should pass Hawaii’s SB2471 bill that render Supreme Court citizen, United decision irrelevant in their state Don’t let billionaire Nazi musk and other billionaires and multimillionaires, steal your elections

The Trump administration is repealing a rule that prevents power plants from releasing hundreds of millions of gallons of toxic mercury and arsenic into drinking water.

“HHS is punishing a world-class scientist who was working to protect people against pandemics, and if he had been listened to more thoroughly, we might have been better prepared for SARS-CoV-2” This might be the most insane thing yet. www.science.org/content/arti...

"I am forever resisting the false binary that says we are either all-in or absent, either useful or useless. Fascism thrives on abandonment, but burnout also produces abandonment. So does untreated pain. So does loneliness."

now thats an anecdote with a punch, from Gillian Tett www.ft.com/content/c0ae...

🚨BREAKING: In a 4-3 ruling, the Virginia Supreme Court has OVERTURNED the redistricting referendum approved by voters last month. The court ruled the General Assembly violated the Virginia Constitution in advancing the amendment, nullifying the referendum entirely.
