Calling the Voting Rights Act “far-left partisan Democratic legislation” is what happens when historical ignorance meets bad faith. Reagan reauthorized it in 1982, Bush signed an extension in 1992, and George W. Bush signed its reauthorization in 2006.

Pocket change. Even $1.5 BILLION wouldn't make a dent.

So basically, he's not being penalized at all. That's pocket change & he's not paying it. The penalty should be a few billion & he personally should be paying the fine.

"… to help Americans quit antidepressants": I don't need such help. If I _did_ I'd seek my doctor, not some roided-up chud who looks like a fruit leather left out in the sun on a Venice Beach street.

Hantavirus sounds like something they made up in Star Wars to take down the Rancor, and no thanks.

Every American should be fighting MAD about this! Call your Senators and Congressmen!!

Oh dear. This is very sad news. Such a great loss. www.theguardian.com/books/2026/m...

Of course, we can all imagine it because we were all horrified by the senseless killing of a democratic leader and her husband.😢

Goode won.

Yes I am.

Trump talking to kids really highlights how strange and deranged he is

This kind of talk needs to be nipped in the bud right now. Trump has NO business messing with our election process. Elections are run by the States. Period.

Me thinks they don’t know what democracy means…

Oh, the people who blow up ships are the bad guys? Huh.

Can you identify this mesmerizing creature from the Red Sea? The Thysanastoma loriferum is a rare find with its ghostly appearance and graceful movements.

Donald Trump made the ultimate mistake: he bombed Iran before the midterms. Regardless of next actions, gas prices will be high in 6-months. "It's the economy, stupid". Republicans in Congress should be going over and polishing up their resumes. They're going to be looking for different jobs soon.

right now a big scandal in EMS is that a wealthy neighborhood in Seattle is complaining about HEMS (Helicopter EMS) landings at Seattle Children's Hospital this means helicopters are being turned away by the hospital and sick children are being put at risk fuck rich people.

Do you like the Talking Heads and the B-52s? Do you live in the Bay Area? Weeeelllll, lucky you. My Talking Heads tribute is playing with a B-52s tribute on July 11 at Retro Junkie in Walnut Creek It's gonna be a fun night of dancing to songs about lobsters and buildings.

My daughter and SIL run a restaurant. They are usually closed until dinner today. But this morning they both went in early to make and serve baked ziti and salad for lunch for the teachers for teacher appreciation day. He cooks, she serves. Good people.
