Jeff Bezos and his wife are the lead sponsors of tonight's Met Gala. Now seems like a good time to remind folks of all the ways Bezos is shafting American consumers and Amazon workers — and how his wealth is putting our democracy at risk. https://www.commondreams.org/opinion/amazon-ceo-jeff-bezos

A detail I didn’t know: “The Herald entered the Epstein series for a Pulitzer Prize that year, but it was not a finalist. Alan Dershowitz … who helped broker Epstein’s original deal, wrote a letter to the Pulitzer committee that year, urging them not to honor Brown’s work.” share.inquirer.com/THMiUZ

San Francisco Chronicle won Pulitzer for explanatory journalism for its investigation into how major home insurance companies leave California homeowners unable to rebuild after catastrophic wildfires, even when they have what they thought was full coverage. www.sfchronicle.com/about/newsro...

Not an 'I Voted Early' post, but instead a message from Jen Jordan, one of the two candidates running to flip these two Georgia State Supreme Court seats. We have got to amplify these two races from now until May 19th, and with an emphasis on early voting. bsky.app/profile/jenj...

This makes me want to scream, it's all so blatant. So remember, Georgia, go vote and vote for Jordan & Rankin for State Supreme Court (they won't have party affiliation on the ballot I'm p sure, so remember the names and to NOT vote for the incumbents). boltsmag.org/georgia-supr...

GEORGIA: just a reminder that early voting is happening now and that it is imperative we vote for Jordan and Rankin for the state supreme court (esp given last week's egregious VRA ruling from those assholes in the us supreme court). The judge election is NOT a primary. This is for the seat itself!

No sitting justice on the Georgia Supreme Court has lost a reelection race in over 100 years. But two liberal attorneys are challenging two GOP-appointed justices later this month.

#GEORGIASUPREMECOURTELECTIONS! On May 19, #Georgia will elect State Supreme Court justices that will rule on the next Republican gerrymander. DEMS 𝘔𝘜𝘚𝘛 𝘸𝘪𝘯. To win a liberal majority on the Supreme Court of Georgia before 2028 redraw, we need to flip 2seats on May 19, 2026 -and 3 more in May 2028.

California Democrats running for governor are rizzless, but the Republican frontrunner is… British?

A Pulitzer for Julie K. Brown. Richly deserved, and overdue!

NEW: In a brief filed with SCOTUS, civil rights groups contend that under the court’s own history of applying “the Purcell principle,” it is too late into the election season to suspend it. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Trump asked Sean Hannity to serve as his intermediary in getting John Fetterman to switch parties, according to Politico. Hannity then conveyed Trump's offer of "more money than he ever dreamed of" to Fetterman the next day on his podcast. www.politico.com/news/magazin...

🧵This is an important issue and Democrats need to follow it NOW because it is moving at breakneck speed: AI taking jobs. 79 percent of voters are worried about the “government not having a plan to protect workers,” and 72 percent are concerned that A.I. “drives down wages for people like you.”"

This stuff is so benign that tons of it is for sale on Amazon. Anyone arresting Bezos?

We went from "armed gunman mere seconds away from shooting the president is killed by Secret Service" to "guy with a shotgun falls down on a different floor well outside the entrance of the ballroom and we can't find the bullets because that just happens sometimes" awfully fast.

KELLOGG: Ukrainians fought brilliantly, lost only 1% of land since 2014. You’ve got to give them full credit for what they’ve done. Russians not winning this war, they’re losing. Putin faces huge economic problems, suffered 1.2 to 1.4 million casualties, not going to get Donbas.

This week, the Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act in a devastating 6-3 decision. If you're as furious as I am, I hope you will consider joining our team. We are hiring experienced attorneys to help our clients fight for voting rights and democracy. ats.rippling.com/elg-careers-...

Epstein planed to spread his DNA by impregnating women on Zorro Ranch. This is prime eugenics thinking.

And somehow we’re hearing more about this from 60 Minutes Australia than U.S. media. Ask yourself why.

DON’T FORGET ABOUT THE EPSTEIN FILES Epstein’s Zorro Ranch was never properly investigated even though there were credible reports of bodies and possible murders tied to that property. This is also where Jeffrey Epstein wanted to impregnate women and girls to “seed” the human race with his DNA. 🧵

Con artists posing as ICE agents and immigration officers are using WhatsApp and fake court hearings to bilk vulnerable people out of their savings with empty promises to fix immigration problems. As mass deportations continue, scam complaints soar.
