Act now to save Labyrinth Canyon in Southern Utah!

PA has Democratic Supreme Court justices up for retention. The Bar Assoc recommends a YES vote, & so does everyone who values our voting rights, access to healthcare, public school funding, & clean air & water! Turn your ballot over ↩️ and vote YES to retain! Every statewide judge is a Democrat.

Jeffries: "Here's what DHS has done. DHS put out a hit list directed at Democratic members of Congress, Dem governors, and Dem officials. It's a hit list saying to crazies all across the country 'target these people.' So no, we're not gonna be lectured by DHS. Take your hit list down."

I feel seen ❤️

In discussion with a computer scientist from the University of Cambridge last night: Me: "you've described some of the things that AI is good at. How would you describe the category of things it's not good at? **pause** Him: "Anything where it has to be right".

Retention votes just say the judge’s name — no party. All statewide judges on the ballot are Democrats, so that’s easy! Vote YES on all of them.

Our Democratic judges are on the ballot to be retained for another term — vote YES! They’ve done a great job. The nonpartisan Bar Assoc recommends retaining them! They’re protected our votes, and our rights, per the PA Constitution.

We wanted to understand the legal justification for the indictment of former FBI Director James Comey. So we talked to three unvaccinated crypto investors at Long John Silver's in Scranton.

Each week, The Contrarian selects undaunted individuals working to defend democracy. This week's spotlight: The American people In the midst of the Kimmel whirlwind, Americans responded with quick, unflinching action in the face of First Amendment attacks — and their voices were heard.

Pittsburgh, if you see any icy conditions around town, don't hesitate:

So Democrats shouldn’t call Republicans fascist or gestapo or anything because that could provoke violence, but it is appropriate to call Democrats domestic terrorists or a domestic extremist organization. Do I have that right?

"Fighting doesn’t always result in victory, but surrendering guarantees defeat. The only people who have preserved their dignity or their rights in dealing with Trump are those who have been willing to stand up to him."

INBOX: @repsummerlee.bsky.social calls for an immediate restoration of bus stops removed from the Waterfront: "Removing bus stops from the Waterfront disregards the needs of thousands of riders—working people, seniors, people with disabilities, families, and caregivers—who depend on this lifeline."

Seen at this morning’s vigil at the PGH ICE offices

Today, a coalition of Feds from most agencies, and several resistance groups, sent a letter to Congress, demanding that they settle for nothing less than a fighting CR that restores integrity to our agencies and our missions, and stating that we will accept a shutdown if necessary!!!!! #shutitdown

Why did Trump’s escalator stop working? Because it became too woke.

If a government tells you that you can’t call it authoritarian, it’s authoritarian.

KONSYSE: Biden-era plans for bike lanes and urban trails are being halted across the United States. The Trump administration calls them hostile to cars.

What a surprise! Look who’s funding the flurry of misleading mailers we’re getting in PA:

Good article, great headline. @delaneyrules.bsky.social www.huffpost.com/entry/democr...

ICE shooter Joshua Jahn's politics aren't what's being reported, three longtime former friends tell me. www.kenklippenstein.com/p/the-ice-sh...

Kash Patel will literally tweet evidence to jeopardize an active investigation but will tell you his hands are tied when it comes to releasing the Epstein files.

Lord, I’ve seen what you’ve done for other people…

This is the fishiest shit I've ever seen. We're supposed to believe the shooter wrote "Anti-ICE" in pen on a bullet and then shot detainees but not ICE officers?

In Boston and Philadelphia, Children’s Hospitals have taken legal action against DOJ efforts to collect medical records on trans youth patients. Pittsburgh families want UPMC to do the same.

Only in the 5th and 6th paragraphs do we get the perfectly innocent explanation that a member of the U.S. delegation inadvertently triggered the escalator stoppage. Yet Karoline Leavitt and Fox act like it’s an international incident. 2/2

Can't help but notice that the media breathlessly reporting on the messages that shooters write on their bullets seems to have been followed by a surge of shooters writing messages on bullets

This SHOULD be a much bigger news story. Maybe if we tell the media that Biden is still president, they’ll start reporting on it.

Railroad industry representatives pushed back against proposed zoning changes along Hazelwood’s riverfront, despite one councilor’s calls for “environmental justice.”

No media coverage this weekend tells us here we need to do more to fight fascism.✅ apnews.com/article/we-a...

Trump and Republicans would rather shut down the government than work with Democrats to lower costs and protect health care for working families and cancer patients. More chaos and more pain for the American people.

Poignant and beautiful ❤️

It’s always a good sign when the people around your president can reasonably be described as “cronies.”

The point of the Antifa order is to assert that something exists which does not exist and to make people think it (1) exists and (2) is bad. you can read it, there’s nothing there beyond that www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...
