Just saying, but when people are trying to do everything they can to prevent you from voting, thatโs when you absolutely need to vote.
Ready to make this the biggest midterm turnout in history?
Interesting post about the coordinated anti-AOC smear campaign. It's 2016 again! Fake local news outlets on Facebook getting picked up until eventually it winds up in the Washington Post.
Pritzker demands a $1,700 refund per family for the people of Illinois after Trump's tariffs were ruled unconstitutional.
Dems, pay attention. This is your midterms message.
๐The federal judges in West Virginia, where ICE has been pulling over and detaining people on the freeway, are literally screaming about ICE's tactics.
"It is an assault on the constitutional order," Judge Goodwin says. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
Minnesota farmers are worried they wonโt have enough hands to tend livestock and manage crops this year, a consequence of ongoing federal immigration enforcement in the state.
Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
Itโs not about what this country can or canโt afford.
Itโs about priorities.
I want to thank everyone who posts gift articles of really important stories that all Americans should read but are behind paywalls so most canโt.
There are some stories that are so important to the public interest that media companies should remove paywalls on some occasions.
My first choice for that first letter was the winner, but I went with my second choice first. Listen to your gut.

โLate Friday night, the Fifth Circuit adopted the extreme minority viewโthat the government can indefinitely detain without bond millions of non-citizens who have been here for generations; who have never committed a crime; and who pose neither a risk of flight nor any threat to public safety.โ
You may recall that in January of 2025, artist Ann Telnaes announced that she had quit The Washington Post after editors killed a cartoon that depicted owner Jeff Bezos, among others, genuflecting to Trump.
This cartoon feels even more relevant this week.
This should get immediate condemnation from everyone, yet we are so polarized that โHe must have been provokedโ takes precedence over the obvious fact that a grown man attacked a child. Why? Because he is one of โusโ and she is one of โthemโ. We arenโt coming back from this in our generation.
Stop asking if theyโre โrigging the election.โ
They. Already. Are.
But the most dangerous part isnโt the mechanics. Itโs the message.
Theyโre doing it in public to make you swallow the real lie:
That voting is pointless.
If they can get you to quit before Election Dayโฆ they donโt even have to win.
โWe need leaders who are genuinely committed to a progressive future that includes breaking the oligarchy, holding the criminal elite accountable and pursuing policies that celebrate diversity and expand equality.
โThat means pursuing radical Americanism.โ

Swalwell: Nobody wants to perform there. Everyone who had been booked is now canceling since this guy put his name on it. I think heโs trying to save himself the humiliation of no one wanting to perform there or go there.
People who begin by shooting animals they find unpleasant or not worthy of living often turn out to be serial killers. Remember that when you think about Kristi Noem.
I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. Itโs dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Just over the past 72 days, two non-white Democratic members of Congress have been attacked, one of them by a Trump supporter who threatened him with deportation.
Does JD Vance have anything to say? After all, the GOP VP is always so keen to attack "left-wing" political violence.
Here's how to identify some crowd control munitions, canisters of which federal agents have left on the ground after deploying them against people in Minnesota. bit.ly/3YWp1jE

Citizens Bank provides nearly $1 trillion in credit & bonds to private prison companies.
AT&T has a $147 million contract to provide communications services to DHS.
