Has anyone calculated how much food, affordable housing, healthcare, education, medical research, green energy and other needs could be met with the billions spent on political campaigns? Why do we agree to this system? I’ve had enough.

Today Trump "negotiated" with his private criminal defense lawyer—a man he made AG for this corrupt purpose—the theft of $1.8B in taxpayer money so that it could be given to far-right terrorists in open rebellion against America. It's the most corrupt act by a POTUS in history.

The idea is tell right wing Trumpers that it’s okay to seize the Capitol. You will be pardoned and hugely compensated. He’s creating an army of violent insurrectionists.

We destroyed Iraq. We destroyed Afghanistan. And the people behind all that destruction, all that killing, the people who sent me to war are still in power. Still sending young Americans to die thousands of miles from home.

China & Russia are not our allies and Canada & Greenland are not our enemies.

It is exhausting trying to explain to the purists that the Democrats do not have to win MAGA voters in rural red states. They just have to peel off single-digit changes among indies, and get some of their own centrist voters to come back to the fold.

I’m trying to imagine any Republican governor in America doing the equivalent of what Jared Polis just did. This is why Democrats lose.

GILLIBRAND: How did we bomb 22 schools? COOPER: There's no indication we have G: So how do you explain publicly available information that 22 schools have been hit and multiple hospitals? C: There's no way we can corroborate that G: Have you investigated those claims? C: We have not

More than 29 million gallons of unbilled water flowed to Quality Technology Services’ data center campus under development in Fayetteville, Georgia, after two industrial-scale hookups went unaccounted for. ground.news/article/data...

IMO one of the biggest challenges with hantavirus right now is the fact that the wholly unqualified individual currently in charge of HHS rose to undeserved prominence by repeatedly promoting the idea that individual rights are more important than protecting the public’s health.

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...

There is no clearer case for the necessity of Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 than how quickly southern states moved to eliminate Black-majority districts and dilute Black power after SCOTUS eroded Section 2. SCOTUS’s reasoning was immediately disproven by reality.

On June 10, Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine will have lasted as long as the entire First World War. Putin threw Russia, its allies, and every Western bootlicker he could find into this war, and Ukraine is still standing while Russia sustains daily strikes on its own territory.

Mr. Wonderful’s Utah data center will be more than twice as big as Manhattan

Average gas prices are $4.50 per gallon. Gas prices are up 50% since the start of Trump’s war with Iran. And remember, Senate Republicans have voted 6 times to continue Trump’s war. End the war. Lower costs.

BREAKING: Tennessee legislators just voted to further erode the rights of Black voters across the state by redrawing our congressional districts. Voting rights and representation are not up for debate. We’ll see Governor Lee in court.

WATCH: “No racial data was used in the drawing of this map.” 🤔 Speaker Sexton also pretends not to know if MEMPHIS is predominantly Black, insists with a straight face to @rep.jesse.chism race wasn’t a factor in carving the city into thirds- precisely splitting the Black vote

State supreme court justices play a critical role in defending your rights and freedoms, which is why the election happening in Georgia right now is so important. Make sure you have a plan to vote for Jen Jordan and Miracle Rankin.

This is 100% true.

My name is Graham Platner and I’m running for US Senate to defeat Susan Collins and topple the oligarchy that’s destroying our country. I’m a veteran, oysterman, and working class Mainer who’s seen this state become unlivable for working people. And that makes me deeply angry.

Mark Zuckerberg built a massive data center in Georgia just hundreds of yards from people’s homes. Now the water pressure is gone. Sinks don’t run. Toilets won’t refill. Homes shake nonstop. Power outages are routine.

Abortion is healthcare. Mifepristone is healthcare. Plan B is healthcare. Birth control is healthcare.

BREAKING: Mifepristone is back at the Supreme Court in case over mailing the medication abortion drug. After a Fifth Circuit ruling Friday that would end the mailing of mifepristone, a drugmaker asked SCOTUS to act immediately to keep the FDA policy allowing mailing in place. New, at Law Dork:

A new study shows that RFK Jr. using the CDC website to promote vaccine disinformation about autism does indeed have adverse effects on the public’s trust in vaccination. It also undermines trust in the CDC itself. Even if he’s been banned from discussing vaccines, he’s already planted landmines.

The controversial weed killer Roundup is now being deployed in private and public forests at record rates. We go inside the secret plan that helped make it possible.

In Memphis, Tennessee, Elon Musk’s xAI operates over two dozen methane gas-burning turbines without legal permits to power its data centers, Colossus 1 and Colossus 2, polluting the nation’s largest majority-Black city with toxic emissions. The NAACP is suing xAI for violating the Clean Air Act.

About 8 in 10 Americans who re-enrolled in Affordable Care Act marketplace coverage say their health care costs are higher this year, including about half who say their costs are "a lot" higher, according to a survey from the health care research nonprofit KFF. https://to.pbs.org/47HpDOI

Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft are all planning huge layoffs. Amazon got $17.5B in federal tax breaks last year. Jeff Bezos is worth $271B. Meta saved $13.7B in taxes. Mark Zuckerberg is worth $231B. Microsoft saved $12.5B last year. Its CEO is worth $1.3B. This is what a rigged economy looks like.
