They canceled his citizenship interview and he drove in the winning run to beat the US. Eugenio Suarez is a gem.

Biss is a progressive who ran to Pritzker’s left in 2018 & was endorsed by the outgoing Rep whose so progressive the Nation endorsed her to be Gore’s VP. Twitter’s acting like a super right winger won & is getting increasingly unhinged. Ffs even Fine supported M4A as her top healthcare policy.

For the first time in US history, there will be three Black female senators at the same time (assuming Stratton wins in Nov which she will). Congrats to Juliana Stratton!

Look at what this moment means to Venezuela 🇻🇪

Some good news here: New Jersey has approved three large battery storage projects, totaling 355 MW. One 200 MW battery will be installed at a defunct coal power station in Sayreveill. Another 150 MW battery will go at the Bergen Generating Station. www.utilitydive.com/news/new-jer...

Nate Cavanaugh has gone viral recently for his taped deposition about DOGE eliminating "DEI" grants. He's also a key figure in our story from last year. We found that he helped expose a sensitive Afghanistan program, leading to a brutal Taliban crackdown.

Meanwhile, Stratton & Raja are slugging it out for IL-Senate with 42% in...

Russ Feingold is traveling the world to get countries to sign on to global agreements to defend biodiversity; and it’s working. Dozens of countries have joined. As Trump and the GOP block climate initiatives, Feingold and his allies have figured out how to build vital new coalitions. #SaveThePlanet

Crucial point: Trump's Iran fiasco is very likely exacerbated by advisers who feed him highly simplified versions of the intelligence, says @mollymckew.bsky.social. "They give him bullet points written in crayon." On the pod Molly breaks down the failures here: newrepublic.com/article/2078...

Since Twitter is id’ing the women in Gov. Mills’ new ad that Blackwater Oyster Boy’s consultants are crying about, just feel the need to say that if your response to an ad about a guy being a victim-blaming rape apologist is to go after the women in the video you belong on a list.

Whoops...another update: 74% in, Kat moves up to 2nd, Biss still up 31% to 23%.

Whoops...big update just now: Biss now up 34% to 25% for Fine; Kat still at 18% with 39% of the vote in...

GOP will hold Virginia’s HD-98 Margin will get closer when final mail added on Friday Still GOP over performance compared to 2024 Easy to read into special elections But VA GOP seems more motivated than last year So Dems shouldn’t take redistricting referendum for granted

I secured over $1 million in federal funding to deliver clean drinking water from Lake Michigan to Joliet.

I am just as excited to have the IL-9 primary be over as I was to have last year's NYC mayoral primary be over. But then I remember what an unmitigated sh*t show our CA gubernatorial primary is about to be, and I'd like to apologize in advance to all of you across the country.

kind of annoyed that the narrative is clearly going to be “Israel got us into Iran” when Russia is right there and is cashing the checks

"Cuando eres una estrella, te dejan hacerlo."

in the age of Trump and Epstein and men committing sexual assaults and covering/excusing other men for their criminal sexual behavior toward women we don't need yet another man who doesn't take rape seriously as a US Senator I'm gonna vote for the lady who put rapists in jail, not Platner.

Senate Democrats are currently using a privileged War Powers Resolution to legally interrupt the GOP's 10-day marathon on the SAVE Act. Because war powers motions are privileged under the 1973 Act, they can take precedence over the voting bill debate. punchbowl.news/article/sena...

Arizona Attorney General Kristin Mayes has filed criminal charges against the prediction market Kalshi, accusing it of operating an illegal betting and wagering operation, and taking bets on Arizona elections. Here's more from NBC, https://flip.it/zKryRs #kalshi #arizona #uslaw

NEW: Senate begins debating Trump-backed SAVE America Act 51-48; the NOs are Democrats + Murkowski + Tillis. But it's unlikely to pass. It needs 60 votes to end debate and advance. No path to get there. Democrats will block it. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

Platner is a con man.

Lord free us from the fucking IL-9 primary

One of Dems' big priorities this year is to flip Wisconsin's legislature. And a GOP state Senator who represents a district that was basically tied in 2024 (SD21's Van Wanggaard) just announced he won't seek reelection. www.wispolitics.com/2026/sen-wan...

I know I'm a broken record but you *cannot* understand the MAGA rift over Iran war (and other stuff) without understanding that the antisemitic MAGA-ites are going after Christian Zionists (see: Owens' reference to "Bibi's red heifer war") *with antisemitism,* not just opposition to Israel policy.

So, if we take this at face value, Trump was keeping a known leaker in a high-ranking position within the administration for months.

ICYMI: President @barackobama.bsky.social calls on Virginians to vote YES on April’s redistricting referendum! From Virginia to California, countless Americans are standing up to Trump’s gerrymanders!

Make your voice heard, Illinois. Polls are open until 7 PM — make time today to cast your ballot if you haven’t yet. Find your polling place at elections.il.gov.

Retirees on fixed incomes sent $10, $20 — believing they were defending democracy. They were feeding a grift. The people who built that system knew exactly what they were doing. That's what makes it so enraging. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

ON TUESDAYS, WE VOTE 🗳️ Per Ariella: “It's Illinois Primary on Tuesday! So if you live in IL, no matter where you live, you have an election! But you also might have an election on Tuesday in GA, PA, VA or WY!” Elections are decided by those who show up so spread the word & let’s get it done. ✅

@grahamformaine.bsky.social blamed women for sexual assault, saying they should "take some responsibility for themselves" and "act like an adult." Here's what Maine women had to say about his words.

Translation: I want no part of this shit show.

masterful gambit to make shipping costs go up higher by artificially reducing the supply of truck drivers in the middle of the biggest energy crisis in 50 years

These fools vote. So when YOU don’t vote, they win.

Almost every woman who is married and changed her name would be disenfranchised by the SAVE Act RealID, birth certificates, marriage licenses and even registering again won’t help They’ll have to pay thousands to re-write documents And even THAT may not work #SaveActIsPayToVote

VEN leads 4-2 over ITA going into the bottom of the ninth. If they hold the lead, they play USA tomorrow.

The sitting president of the United States just sat behind the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office of the White House and referred to the Governor of California as the President of the United States. Can the media start reporting on his deteriorating mental state now or nah?

CNN airs compilation of Trump's contradictions from his afternoon event

This is the right answer

I wrote about the Democrats' attempt to merge tax cut populism with social democratic social policy and why it's a bad idea publiccomment.blog/p/adventures...

Lololo. His sounds are good. And I’d feel the same way!

so all that blood and treasure to get another data point confirming "strategic bombing campaigns can't actually accomplish regime change"

REMINDER: Democrats tried SIX TIMES to fund the parts of DHS that Congress agrees on—like paying TSA workers, FEMA, and cyber defense. Republicans blocked us every single time.
