As a result of all the good things accomplished before the 2028 presidential election, more Democrats in the congress & a Democratic as president. Here is my next list. Impeach Justices Thomas and Alito and Eileen Cannon Finish prosecution of Trump Defund Musk and nationalize SpaceX and Starlink 2/2

"Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced." - Ilhan Omar

7 shots fired into an SUV with a 5-year-old child in the back seat as the vehicle was moving away. Markwayne Mullin claims the driver “weaponized” his vehicle. Bullshit! “Weaponized vehicle” has become ICE’s go-to excuse for shooting folks. Where’s the evidence? It’s not in this new footage.

Supreme Court justices who started prior to 1966 stayed for a median of 15.3 years, but for those who joined the Court after 1966 (excluding the current ones), the number jumped to 25.7 years. bit.ly/47DWAuZ

robertreich.substack.com/p/in-convers... Tim Snyder is absolutely right, IMHO. When Democrats take the House and Senate this election, they need to concentrate on passing legislation that will help the American people, guaranteeing a democratic win in 2028.

Could new bus shelter roofs help New Yorkers stay cool in extreme heat? We're testing a few in Brownsville to find out: a green roof covered with native plants, and reflective roofs covered with low-cost, heat-resilient film.

Pretty insightful stuff here from Bret Stephens, who admits he's literally as out of touch as possible with every New Yorker alive right now. Zohran is the most popular politician in the country, Dem leadership is historically unpopular, and he's just... the opposite. And he works for the NY Times.

The New York Times did not blink. The Times: “We won’t be issuing a retraction." But they didn't stop there. "This is another all too common example of the president lashing out at coverage he doesn’t like and belittling journalists who report the facts.”

Love the line: "we are just better at accounting". Think about it like an American. Why is everyone so happy at “All You Can Eat Buffets” compared to regular restaurants where you pay by what you order? Because you don’t have to worry about the cost of what you’re eating, it’s all included!

One wealthy racist wants a giant statue to another wealthy racist. We need to stop deifying Washington. Not just because he was a white supremacist who happily owned other humans. But because he was a mediocre leader who wanted power to reside with wealthy elites, not the great unwashed masses.
