Every Memorial Day my late grandpa “Big Russ,” a WWII vet, would place flags on the headstones of veterans graves at the local cemetery. When asked if war was tough, Grandpa and his American Legion buddies had an answer at the ready, “It was a lot tougher for the guys who died.” 🇺🇸 🙏

We found that the sepsis rate in second-trimester pregnancy loss hospitalizations increased by more than 50% under Texas’ abortion ban. Here’s how we did our analysis. (Published Feb. 2025)

BREAKING: Harry Dunn and Daniel Hodges, two law enforcement officers who clashed with Jan. 6 insurrectionists, have sued to block the Trump 'slush fund'. They're asking a federal judge to find the creation of the fund illegal and reverse any transfers that Treasury has made to DOJ to implement it.

Every official who participated in this corrupt DOJ process should face termination or impeachment, followed by a full criminal referral for prosecution. Public trust demands consequence.

COMMENTARY: Gov. Jared Polis (D) removed a standard line from Tina Peters' clemency letter which reads: "I believe you will be successful upon your release." If Peters is successful in helping President Trump overthrow American elections, that will be Polis' legacy.

Trump didn’t just pardon his followers who stormed the U.S. Capitol. He’s now set them up for payments through a slush fund he created to reward his allies—out of your tax dollars. You could not make this up.

With the news that Gov Jared Polis of Colorado just granted clemency to Tina Peters, justice has been once again perverted, and this time by a DEMOCRAT desperate for Donald Trumps adoration. Congrats Jared Polis. I bet you get invited to the WH now

Survivor of Jeffrey Epstein breaks down in tears describing the moment she learned her name was revealed while the rich and powerful remained protected by redactions Roza: I kept my identity protected as Jane Doe. I woke up one day with my name mentioned over 500 times.

Absolute banger from @davekarpf.bsky.social today. Given the fines Musk would have been subject to, it was cheaper for him to buy the government (to the record-breaking tune of $290 million) than face the law. So much corruption. davekarpf.beehiiv.com/p/a-story-of...

My latest @nytimes.com oped shows that the White House is dramatically understating the cost of the war in Iran. By my calculations—and I show my work—this war will cost the typical American family thousands, and it could cost them tens of thousands. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2026/05/08/o...

the optics of this Oval Office event are absolutely insane. get a load of this. crazytown.

Gary Chambers to @weareufd.bsky.social: "The very core of this is undemocratic and un-American, to tax Black people in Louisiana and then deny us representation is the very premise of robbing us of our ability to be full citizens in this country"

Washington Dems must gain 2/3 supermajorities in 2026 to pass a 2027 ballot initiative to redraw their map. They could make 1 of 2 GOP seats solid blue & the other swingy. But gaining 3 Senate seats may be hard due to which seats are up. Interactive map+data davesredistricting.org/join/a482d04...

Here's @adamserwer.bsky.social summing up yesterday's decision with his typical clarity and historical perspective. Delighted he'll be joining us in Chicago, along with the equally essential @jamellebouie.net, on May 17th. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

My Threads feed is full of Black folks absolutely gutted and despairing over today’s Voting Rights Act ruling. I love Bluesky for so much, but today is one of those historical moments where it is stark that we really live in two different Americas.

LMAO - Reuters BBC news article saying Israel returning to ceasefire after their attack. I am no Jared Kushner type but pretty sure that is not a ceasefire then.

If you drive a 2025/2026 Tesla or still use X, there really isn't an excuse. You really are just an asshole that looks the other way.

Have found a sure fire bot detector. Pretty much anyone that follows me is likely a bot.

Her birthday today. Not a lot of moving but still fighting!

Until we pass a nationwide ban on gerrymandering (which we need), Democrats should gerrymander every state to the fullest extent. 52-0 in CA, 17-0 in IL, and so on. No more unilateral disarmament. Time to get serious about fighting back.
