This is unconstitutional (see next post in thread) and it is unconscionable that it is not being loudly and unequivocally lambasted by the press and members of both parties. Impeaching Trump should be a Dem priority; everything else is downstream of that.

The “we don’t have the votes” excuse for refusing to force a vote on impeachment is conceding the point and saying even the opposition party doesn’t think this high crime merits removal from office. It’s not being politically astute and pragmatic, it’s self-defeating in its cowardice.

Yesterday, a new generation of civil rights activists marched from Selma to Montgomery to fight for voting rights. As states across the country try to make it harder for citizens to be heard, we need to learn the lessons of those who came before us and refuse to take our democracy for granted.

BREAKING: An important victory in stopping $1 billion of your tax dollars from being used to pay for Trump’s golden ballroom. But the fight is not over, as Senate Republicans promise to keep trying. They will fight for Trump’s ballroom, but not to help you make ends meet.

As the United States prepares for hurricane season and a summer of record-breaking heat, experts fear the Trump administration’s cuts to climate and weather data programming could make the federal government’s weather forecasts less reliable when they are needed most.

The US cannot lead the world in science while dismantling it's support. The longer the NSB is gone, the further we will fall behind. Sign your support for the restoration of the NSB and email your Members of Congress: Sign: zurl.co/GipXQ Email: zurl.co/ihHqZ zurl.co/VPjWS

If Congress implements this set of Supreme Court reforms, it would help ensure the Court has the credibility needed to play the role we need it to play in our democracy. bit.ly/4tHjFqf

"It's hard to believe that it would take two centuries for the Lord to raise up a great man to bring that ballroom finally to stand where it needs to stand." A real thing that was said, without shame, at a Christian prayer rally.

it would be helpful if Democratic leaders would say, specifically and repeatedly, that we need to expand the court.

Just a failure of basic civics

Drawing a summoning circle out of Stila liquid eyeliner to awaken Lauren Conrad, the only person who can stop Spencer Pratt

Thousands are marching in Selma calling for a full restoration of the voting rights act.

Congress needs to stop naming problems without providing solutions. If Trump is attempting to commit grand larceny, why aren’t you advocating for his immediate impeachment and removal? History will document your complacency as complicity!

“I’m just so goddamn fed up with all this,” Gina Small, 29, said in a comment on the U.S. economy that one of her friends assumed was about the world’s ongoing humanitarian crises, another friend thought was about the weaponization of America’s military against its own people.

Of course he will. Always follow the money. He doesn't do much unless he is getting paid. That's why he said that he is not concerned about the financial situation of American #USDemocracy www.mediaite.com/media/news/t...

The U.S. government owes Black peoples reparations for slavery and its impact on humanity thereafter.

My wishlist project is converting the Fast Trak lanes on the 405 into light rail

Ted Lieu, Lindsey Horvath, Ben Allen, Rick Chavez Zbur *all* declined to help us as we tried to get the city of BH to agree to an independent investigation or additional guardrails. The only politician who actually stood by their stated pro-choice values was AG Bonta.

And another key point: stopping low-cost wind forces grids to fossil fuel, consumer prices go up, but the extra $$ go to Trump’s big fossil-fuel donors. Payola.

The dismantling of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) is associated with measurable increases in Africa, especially in areas most dependent on the agency’s support.

If there were only one word to describe the Trump Administration it would be corruption. Everything boils down to that. Corruption of norms, ethics, the rule of law.

In southern California, ICE raids have sparked a wave of local organizing to protect immigrants. “It was unbelievable. I have lived in Whittier for 30-something years, and I have never ever seen that type of civic engagement,” says a former lawmaker.

You're about to see headlines saying abortion pills can't be shipped. THAT IS NOT TRUE You can still get abortion pills by mail to all fifty states. Some providers will switch to miso-only, some will ship both mife & miso. I got into all of this when the federal court ruling first dropped:

Less than a week after SCOTUS gutted the Voting Rights Act, Republican legislatures across the South moved to carve up majority-Black districts—stripping voters of fair representation without even giving them a say on the new maps. We are not the same. (2/2)

This regime is actively trying to kill us

Part of the reason we are here is an inability to call racism “racism” because we are too scared to call racists “racists” It’s as racist as the day is long. We’ve “anxiety” “tinged” “coded” “some critics call” “could be seen as” and now “Calvinball” ourselves to this point. Call a thing a thing.

What it feels to live through a news cycle these days

AI* company execs and their acolytes really *REALLY* want everyone to buy into their sweaty insistence that AI* (whatever that means) is INEVITABLE, and lean into FOMO and Left Behind messaging to play into natural fears.

Before Mother’s Day, a group of senators raised the alarm about the “appalling and horrific treatment” of pregnant and nursing people in immigration detention. “There are virtually no legal safeguards for pregnant women in federal custody.”

A historic drop in violent crime, including the murder rate, is at risk after the cancellation of federal funding for programs that helped make the decline possible.
