What could have been.

Fewer than 1 in 10 of our Congressional races are considered competitive - in a country that's politically more or less 50-50. This is madness. And it doesn't have to be this way.

New interview! On the fiction of antifa and how it's weaponized against innocent people: www.youtube.com/watch?v=WtTW...

Because REPUBLICANS. MAGA Mike Johnson sent the House away for another week. Sitting at home on a paid vacation. They are supposed to be engaging with their constituents. Town halls and such. NOT HAPPENING. Remember this. They get paid and our military and air traffic controllers do not.

A producer and editor for WGN-TV was violently forced to the ground this morning by two Border Patrol agents, before having her hands cuffed behind her back, during an ICE action in Chicago’s Lincoln Park neighborhood. Debbie Brockman has worked for the local television station since 2011.

This is dedicated to those who believed DJT and legacy media coverage that Project 2025 was nothing to be concerned about. Also, this isn’t legal.

There are still some people who think it can’t happen here even as it’s almost happened.

Our nation's federal employees are more than just numbers on a spreadsheet. They make sure we have clean water. They protect us from financial fraud. They provide healthcare to our communities. They make our government actually work for people. Do not forget this.

I refuse to let hopelessness prevail. This may just be one essay, by a lawyer few have heard of, in a newsletter read by a fraction of the public. But I will not stay silent. Will you? www.democracydocket.com/opinion/i-re...

It’s disappointing how many people hear you’re disabled and assume it makes you an easy target. They assume they can walk all over you. Bully you. Discriminate against you. They decide in a split second that you’re not worthy of basic decency. Ableism is a heck of a drug.

Remembering that time my daughter crafted Evil Ed from Fright Night in Kindergarten…

California voters, please don't forget to track your ballot! www.sos.ca.gov/elections/ba... Hopefully you were smart enough to vote FOR prop 50!

BREAKING: Letitia James has been indicted on one count of bank fraud in Virginia, charge brought directly by Lindsey Halligan, just like the Comey indictment.

Adelita Grijalva won her election to Congress over two weeks ago, but Mike Johnson still hasn't sworn her in. Why the delay? Perhaps it's because Grijalva would cast the final vote needed to release the Epstein files.

A rat ran across the table at Al Jazeera during a broadcast 🐀 😬

The campaign against “antifa” is about establishing a beachhead for further attacks on speech and assembly rights. We see that today in the effort to preemptively label No Kings protesters as “terrorists.”

Mass shooting: 1 dead and 4 wounded in shooting at a balloon release for victim of violence in Saint Louis, Missouri. Deceased identified as 18 year old Angelo Davis.

“The defense secretary underwent a round of cosmetic injections last month.” One insider: “He’s always been full of himself, but lately his ego has been off the charts.”

I love this image.

If I lived in Portland I’d be filming daily videos of the reality there and sending them to every single person in my contacts.

Every word he says here is a lie. Every. Single. Word. He’s living in an alternate reality. #25thAmendment.

C-SPAN caller from Missouri to Missouri Rep. Mark Alford: "I hope you, sir, as an elected official, will think of the people who are in nursing homes, their parents are in nursing homes, their Medicaid is going to be cut. What is going to happen to Missourians whose hospitals are gonna close?"

Peaceful protest does not make us terrorists.

I don’t think some younger people get how weird it was to find out that Busta Rhymes and Snoop Dogg were huge Benny Hill fans. It’d be like finding out Kendrick Lamar and Glorilla were big fans of The Brittas Empire.

Yes, so embarrassing.

I’d like to submit for the public record MY NAME IS JEANNETTE BREEN I AM ANTIFA I AM AN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL I HAVE A CRIMINAL RECORD I AM ANTIFA ANTIFA ANTIFA ANTIFA FUCK YOU ICE COME AND FIND ME INCEL CŨNTS 🖕🏽

Independent C-SPAN caller to Rep. Mark Alford: "You're taking credit for $50b that you just gave to the hospital industry. That's after you took away $150b. You don't take credit for just giving back a little bit of money after taking away so much. So quit lying. It just makes you look horrible."

Peaceful assembly isn’t an insurrection. Storming the Capitol to hang your own vice-president and end democracy is.

OH. MY. GOD. 🫠
