It could be all the public executions. Hard to say.

Background: boltsmag.org/georgia-supr...

At the moment, roughly 54.3% of Georgians who've voted picked the Dem primary ballot, and roughly 44.3% picked the GOP ballot. That's a big gap for the GOP to overcome ... if all voters know who the candidates in the nonpartisan portion of the ballot are. A justice hasn't lost in 100+ years.

A LOT more Democrats are going to the polls for Tuesday's primaries than Republicans. But when it comes to the supreme court races, the big question isis: how comprehensive are Dems' voter education efforts here? Remember that party ID isn't going to show up on ballot, only incumbency.

When Trump is openly skimming off the public at every turn, why should we expect anything less from the scammers in his administration and his party?

Clarence Thomas is a stain on jurisprudence.

(and not like there's any precedent with what has happened to every other minority who try to be "one of the good ones" in partnership with christofacists)

It's not like liberal Jews didn't try to warn them.

Sounds like a pretty good deal!

“Since last year, CIA operatives inside Mexico have directly participated in deadly attacks on several, mostly mid-level cartel members…“It’s not at all clear that all of their missions are coordinated with the [Mexican] government,” said one of the sources.“ In-depth report & no apparent paywall.

Conservatives should be careful here. Fiscal discipline is good, but artificial austerity is not.

"We asked Spencer if he has ever lived in the trailer, and he said no, adding, 'I have never told anyone I lived there.' However, in the campaign ad, he says squarely, "This is where I live" as he stood in front of the trailer." TMZ doing politics is good actually

Will Republicans try to sneak this into the budget? That’s what they did with the Judicial Standards Commission. #ncpol

China needs nothing from America but our country is dependent on their products. All thanks to greedy oligarchs in America selling out manufacturing for the last 50 years.

Finally, a peek behind the curtain to reveal,Truth Social posts are not just Trump’s doing, as most outlets would have you believe. “Harp does not share her drafts with anyone else in the White House but the president,” indicating that those posts were largely written by someone other than Trump.

Last year, nearly 600,000 Americans paid $100 deposits to get a Trump Mobile phone. Not a single person received one. Where’d their money go? This looks like another Trump scam.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau was created to protect Americans from dishonest corporations. But Trump has done everything he can to destroy the agency to shield his billionaire allies from accountability. I’m joining @warren.senate.gov on the Senate floor to fight for working families.

Wrote something about Jason Collins, and revisited some of the media coverage at the time: defector.com/jason-collin...

Some people who may have been exposed to a hantavirus that can transmit from human to human returned to the U.S. before the outbreak aboard a cruise ship was known. Here's where patients are being monitored. https://www.medpagetoday.com/infectiousdisease/publichealth/121244

Roza was just 18 when she was lured from abroad to pursue modeling in 2008. She was then trafficked to Jeffrey Epstein AFTER his conviction and sweetheart deal that allowed him to keep abusing girls. Roza's testimony was horrific, but her courage inspires us to keep fighting.

the pitch deck to sponsor sec. of transportation sean duffy's family road trip reality show (obtained by POLITICO) is as stupid and corrupt as you'd expect: static.politico.com/74/6e/5da7a1...

The hantavirus outbreak is reviving questions about airborne transmission from the early days of COVID. Hantavirus is not COVID, but we shouldn't rule out the possibility that it can spread through the air. My story @sciam.bsky.social 🧪 www.scientificamerican.com/article/can-...

My latest, on the hollow Mother’s Day wishes of the extremists causing the most harm to mothers. And my own wish that they would do less talking and more walking alongside the mothers who have experienced that harm. dot-connecting.ghost.io/a-reflection...

Donald Trump and Stephen Miller aren't simply ignoring DACA renewals. They are strategically slowing down application processing so Dreamers will lose their status and become targets for their deportation scheme. It's evil, frankly, and it is not who we are as a country.

William Paul, the son of Sen. Rand Paul, drunkenly hurled antisemitic insults at Republican Rep. Mike Lawler at a Capitol Hill bar “Do you think I’m Jewish?” Lawler asked. “I’m not.” “Oh wow, I’m so sorry for calling you a Jew,” Paul said.

And when your panels feed directly into the power grid, as most do, you don't need batteries. Burgum is an idiot.

MIN: Do you know how much new energy China put online last year? BURGUM: Intermittent or base load? M: 543 GW. How much was renewable? 434 GW. B: But only when the sun is shining M: Meanwhile, the US put up 53 GW of new energy last year - less than 10% of China. You're harming our natl security

the Supreme Courts midterms meddling is out of control on Monday, they imposed a district map in Alabama that a federal court blocked as an illegal gerrymander ages ago thousands of ppl have already voted! now the state's tryna redo the election w the racist map ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

weird how many contexts the simple question "have you tried being pleasant to be around?" seems to unlock these days

Trump's FCC is attacking a popular, bipartisan program (Lifeline) that gives poor people a tiny $9.25 per month subsidy to help them afford phone and broadband access. They clearly, consciously want to actively hurt and surveil vulnerable minorities (and by proxy their own constituents).

🤬

Congrats again to the Oracle of Summers & company, who seem to be totally missing from the National Conversation™️ now that Joe Biden is not in the White House & the actual things are actually happening

MS NOW EXCLUSIVE: Kash Patel's FBI has imposed new policies that inflate the number of arrests made during his tenure and overstate the bureau's progress in stemming crime, according to a half dozen law enforcement sources with knowledge of the changes. www.ms.now/news/fbi-ins...

Another day, another epic fail from Elon's "self-driving" technology. This isn't just a danger to the people in the cars—it's also a serious danger to every other driver, pedestrian, cyclist, road construction worker, and person who uses our roads. #TeslaTakedown

Wealthy corporations make more profits while poorer Americans suffer from more health issues. That's the country under Trump.

"Lake County Sheriff Oscar Martinez Jr. spent at least $72,521.04 in campaign funds at Gino's Steakhouse over more than two dozen visits between 2022 and 2025... including a single fundraiser that saw Martinez's campaign committee pay Gino's $29,796." A SHERIFF? KNOWINGLY INVOLVED? IN MOB CRIME?

The images were taken during the 10-day mission, which launched on April 1, made its closest approach to the moon on April 6 and splashed down on Earth on April 10. Here's how to view them.

I have been talking recently about why LLM failures are organizational infrastructure failures. Today, here is where to start. Before you expand LLM access, before you add another agent, before you integrate another workflow, document what already exists. What is the LLM authorized to do?

I don’t think I’m as scared of *anything* as puffed-chest conservative dudebros are of just riding on the Metro. Go cry at the gym, cowards.

It’s never gonna stop being funny/sad how absolutely *terrified* conservative men are of just like… cities.

PabloReports: Ted Cruz called you a parasite and disparaged your work as a bartender. AOC: I think it’s funny that he’s been taking a government paycheck for 23 years but has the audacity to criticize someone who has come from a family that had to work their way up and earn their place here.

This post really needs more reposts. Nat is doing revolutionary work and I really do believe she should be known everywhere.

Not sure it's the fault of Bluesky or anyone on it that some people/institutions chose to stay on the fascist hellsite long after they should have, sensibly, left it. Likewise I don't particularly care if the rest of the world acknowledges this place exists, I'm here for the hangout with my pals.

Not for nothing, but I think a lot of people have wrongly settled on “Twitter became a right-wing cesspool because all the cool people left” instead of “All the cool people left because Twitter became a right-wing cesspool.”

One group that cared about helping to right wrongs in the USA. Trump wants them destroyed as helping people are not part of the Trump Kingdom! editions.ajc.com/shortcode/AJ...
