"Trump became frustrated with Makary for not moving fast enough to approve flavored vapes. Makary refused to authorize blueberry and mango vape flavors from LA manufacturer Glas, worried they would encourage youth vaping. After the pressure from Trump, he reversed course and authorized the flavors."

Rep. Derrick Van Orden: "Citizens have the right to peacefully protest, I just wish they knew what they were talking about. There have been no cuts to Medicaid or Medicare." (He's lying -- the "Big Beautiful Bill" cut $1 trillion from Medicaid.)

Going live with @davidnir.com at 2pm eastern to take inventory of the latest developments in Virginia and what they mean for November, Trump's fart of the deal in Iran, and we'll also answer live questions from viewers. Tune in:

Unearthed reports reveal that RFK Jr. fired every full-time CDC cruise ship sanitation inspector ahead of the Hantavirus cruise ship outbreak. www.cbsnews.com/news/cdc-cru...

Why shouldn't Virginia Governor @abigailspanberger.com announce something like "the Supreme Court just ruled that state governments can redistrict, multiple Republican-controlled states already are, and the people of Virginia indicated they want us to, so that's what we're going to do," then do it?

Over one million anglers will drop a line in Minnesota lakes and rivers this season, bringing folks together for a time-honored Minnesota tradition and generating nearly $4.4 billion for local economies.

Trump continues to be America’s biggest loser

yes. change the statute on which this decision turned and redistrict according to the legitimacy conferred by the people of the state

virginia voters should call their delegates and senators and demand that they ignore this illegitimate ruling

Your daily reminder Rick Scott (R-Swamp) is a crook!

REAL WORLD SEAN THINKS AMERICANS PAYING 50% MORE FOR GAS MEANS PEOPLE ARE IN “A GOOD PLACE” WHAT ???

I bet she sure is concerned about it, though.

Wake up Democrats! It's time to redistrict the crap outta this country.

Trumpworld Unnerved as Damning Leaks Expose His Worst War Blunders Yet As fresh revelations shed glaring light on Trump’s Iran miscalculations, a writer who tracks Trump’s policy failures argues that the political fallout for the GOP could be worse than anyone expects.

For the 1st time in 3 years, the annualized rate of wage increases is lower than the rate of inflation. I'm no Economist, but I'm pretty sure thats's bad

Confirmed ICE Air flight coming to MSP, Fri May 8, estimated arrival: 1:30 PM. Shackled detainees will board at Signature Aviation between Terminal 1 & 2. Observe from Terminal 1 parking ramp - gold 7 is best. Past flights: ottergoose.net/ice-flights-... Track today’s flight: adsb.lol?icao=a8b479

Vance said the anti-fraud task force he's leading “has found 186,000 dead people collecting Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits.” If they’re dead, how are they shipping? Has he ever used such card to understand that your actual insurance issues one for you once you had your checkup?

“This decadent, easy-to-throw-together cake will be the star of any child-trafficking meetup you bring it to, and just like pedophilia, once you get a taste, you won’t be able to stop,” Trump said in an instructional video posted to his social media platform

For the first time in history, you can simply say "he is an idiot" and 90% of world will know about whom you are speaking… Am I right?!

Important to keep two things in mind at the same time in regards to these efforts to strip citizenship: - It's mostly spectacle for the base; numbers will be in the dozens to the low hundreds. - That spectacle is designed to send a message that "you don't belong" to immigrants.

Let's all take a deep breath. Virginians took a blue wave to the polls last November, and we can do it again! We knew it was going to be a marathon to the midterms. Don't succumb to fear-mongering. Hope is an action, and we have a lot of work to do in the next six months. #virginia #supremecourt

You can't play "fair" in a rigged game. You have to rewrite the rules and play to win, especially if it's for democracy, freedom, and voting rights. Republicans make up shit all the time to implement minority rule. Be like James Kirk, Dems, and beat the unbeatable Kobiyashu Maru.

We went from ending the war in 24h to celebrating 3 day ceasefire that Russia asked for to protect their “Victory Parade”.

Overnight this Omni ICE flight landed in Guam, where it sat for 7+ hours, before continuing west. It is about to make its first deportation stop, in Cambodia. Migrants passengers onboard have likely been shackled for at least 63 hours.

They'll release the UFO files, but not the Epstein files, which tells you all you need to know about the distraction strategy the Trump administration is relying on. Don't look away!

🔥

What the Republicans are doing has nothing to do with fairness. It's racism and power.

Alright, there has GOT to be a way to get the Virginia maps back. The state constitution bans gerrymandering, and per the VA supreme court's interpretation, there's no time to amend the constitution before the midterms. So what are the other options? 1/

This is depressing mostly because it shows how powerful pop culture is compared to education. The Flintstones helped normalize the image of humans living alongside dinosaurs, and if someone grows up with that as a “default mental picture,” it can stick even if they later learn otherwise.

Friday: Release Epstein files Repost if you wants

Ansari: Lutnick was also asked about the fact that he had said he believed Epstein would blackmail people. He said that he no longer believes that. And then, when pressed on why that is, he said it’s because he spoke with administration officials.

How the fuck does the GOP explain this? www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Republicans' plan: rip up Social Security, make it work worse for Americans, and sell it for parts. We won't let that happen.

I left Northern Ireland to come here to play soccer in 1981. It was at the height of the troubles. When I left my mates called me a lucky bastard for getting to go live in America. Last month I was home in Ireland for a wedding. The same people told me how sorry they were for me having to live here.

Air defense is active in Kharkiv ‼️ Russian drones are over the city!

Tennessee NAACP goes to court to stop "late-decade Congressional redistricting," and the law sure looks to be on their side.

The passage of Tennessee’s new congressional map is a reminder that attacks on our representation are organized and intentional. From the Edmund Pettus Bridge to the Voting Rights Act, we’ve always answered injustice with action. We Got Us.

“Carrying the memory of tens of thousands of genocide victims, and hope for survivors, we are supporting essential legislation today." FCNL’s Scoville Fellow Lydia El Sayegh spoke at a vigil today on Capitol Hill, joining hundreds of faith leaders in demanding urgent action for Palestine.

With the $210 BILLION Republicans want to give ICE & CBP for their campaign of terror, we could: Extend healthcare tax credits Reverse SNAP cuts Fund Head Start Expand housing assistance Fund free universal preschool Fund free school lunches & more We must invest in our people.

Reminder... Any political party trying to make it harder to vote is sending a clear message — they can't win on their ideas alone.

Wtf he is so full of SHIT.

This would probably be their best argument. Have someone sue and then order new maps. Then just use the maps that were already drawn. The VA SC ruled against them on a technicality, they did not say anything about the gerrymander.

A Kamala Harris presidency would have been relatively boring and you wouldn't be awake scrolling right now.

The spider is in stable condition despite acute Rittenhouse poisoning, and is expected to recover in two to three weeks with proper care and medical monitoring.

If you thought gas prices were outrageous in California now, they’re about to get even higher. The LAST Middle East oil tanker is arriving in California. #TrumpsGasFailure
