"Democratic governors and state legislators need to realize that this is no longer about fairness; it’s about fighting back so that they are not engineered out of the House forever. And I get that Dems don’t have the stomach for this kind of warfare--- find it."

“officials discovered two industrial-scale water hookups feeding a data center campus located 20 miles south of downtown Atlanta. One water connection had been installed without the utility’s knowledge, and the other was not linked to the company’s account and therefore wasn’t being billed.”

A wonderful sentence from this story, describing the video of the man who threw a rock at a seal for no reason getting beat up by a local: "Meanwhile, an unidentified gentleman begins wailing on him."

Former Confederate states are trying to lock Black and Brown Americans out of political power.

A generation did everything they were told to do. Go to school. Get a good job. Work hard. Now even people in the trades making decent money are moving back in with their parents because home ownership is completely out of reach in Canada. #cdnpoli

Why did Trump pardon drug trafficker and Honduran president Juan Hernández? According to leaked audio tapes, it was an initial payment in part of a agreement between Trump, Bibi, and others to take down Mexican president Claudia Sheinbaum. english.elpais.com/internationa...

Hungary’s parliament sings “Ode to Joy” — the anthem of Europe — after Péter Magyar is sworn in as prime minister. Hungary is once again a proud member of the European Union.

This is pure joy and it happens every single day of the year. Food for 1300 dogs. What i love the most is that the Thai team do it and we share the videos in Thai to millions of people. I'm hopeful that changes hearts and minds at scale!

Rep. @justinjpearson.bsky.social : “A political lynching… an era of retribution… what just happened in Tennessee was the largest and most swift disenfranchisement of Black people in a century.” #Memphis @GovBillLee @MarshaBlackburn

In his first speech as Hungary's prime minister, Péter Magyar called on Hungarian President Tamás Sulyok to resign or be removed: "It's time to leave, Mr. President — while you still can." Sulyok, a Fidesz-backed Orbán ally, sat awkwardly watching in the Hungarian parliament.

Surely, there has been no other time in the history of this country when its politics was so overflowing with idiots.

The more things change The more they stay the same.

😕🇺🇸 Yeah @marenmorris.bsky.social gets it

A Georgia couple who terrorized a Black family at a child's birthday party with Confederate flags, racial slurs, guns, and death threats were sentenced for a hate crime. Joe Torres got 20 years; Kyla Norton got 15.

And the Supreme Court cries foul..fuck them all

To slightly adapt Orwell: The Supreme Court told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was its final, most essential command.

Yesterday, a caravan of about 13 cars drove from L.A. to the California City detention center - 100 miles each way. Then we joined a rally in town, and heard about all the people who've died there, including a 16 month old baby. Each center makes about 800K A DAY. It's CECOT on our shores.

Walking in a straight line is hard.

Trump and the GOP don’t care about the constitution. They only care about power. We will fight them tooth and nail to protect voters and free and fair elections.

Numerous publications have published the 'Trump SA'd and physically assaulted a 13 yr. old girl.' He hasn't sued any of them, why? Discovery. He's afraid of the Discovery phase of any lawsuit regarding his Epstein crimes...

IF Americans vote overwhelmingly for Dems & give them at least 60 Senate Seats & at least 300 House seats not only could they Impeach & Remove this entire corrupt regime but they would have the votes to remove the corrupt SCOTUS Justices Too! Hope that gives you some incentive to get everyone out /1

Wow. What will incite some push back from Congress???

You'll be shocked to learn that @nytimes.com did not cover this story at all.

We know there are difficult days ahead—but we must continue to keep showing up as generations have before. Especially, in the wake of this week’s Voting Rights decision. (1/3)

I believe the constitutional crisis has been ongoing since 2016—we were simply too blind, or too reluctant, to call it what it is.
