I live in TX. This is my district. They split the college town at the small tip of this in half, thus dividing the little blue vote. My rep lives 326 empty miles away despite the fact that I live 27 congested miles from DFW. We did NOT get a chance to vote on this and he does NOT visit or listen.

So much false equivalence in media on gerrymandering in Texas vs California & Virginia. California and Virginia maps approved by the voters. That's a huge difference not enough people pointing out

I discussed this very thing last night. California and Virginia had the voters decide. NOT Texas.

2. Kash Patel himself cut off “all ties” between the FBI and SPLC less than a year ago. So he knows SPLC was feeding the FBI intel on extremist groups - that is, seeking to “dismantle” these groups, just as they told donors. Nothing in the indictment shows they misled donors. x.com/FBIDirectorK...

listen hun if you can't handle the Washington Post editorial board at their the Texas gerrymander "freakout" is "not a threat to democracy" you don't deserve them at their "Virginia plunges America deeper into the gerrymandering abyss"

brilliant thank you

6) If you want to track this system like an investigator, ignore the shiny “AI” language and watch the connectors: which databases get linked, who defines watchlist categories, what agencies gain access, and what new laws make those links permanent. We need to pay attention to the Palantir/Oracle's

1) “800 million cameras” is the headline, but the story is the architecture. China’s surveillance state works like a full stack system: cameras, biometrics, databases, and rules that make identification routine. It is governance by continuous ID checks. #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy

“To say that President Trump is corrupt is to somehow understate the size, scope and magnitude of his corruption. It is as if you were to describe a modern thermonuclear device as a ‘bomb.’ That is true enough, but it is not quite the truth. It does not capture the nature of the thing in full.”

republicans will yowl and piss and moan and that to my mind is all the reason to do it

Hakeem Jeffries puts out a FAFO: "We will aggressively target for defeat Mario Díaz-Balart, Maria Elvira Salazar, Carlos Giménez, Kat Cammack, Anna Paulina Luna, Laurel Lee, Cory Mills and Brian Mast.... Maximum warfare, everywhere, all the time"

The morning #bee 🐝 The news is terrible so it’s time to deploy the dangle leggies. A sustained campaign of dangle leggies and some horse blinkers 👀

When is the FBI going to be indicted for "secretly funding" the Black Panthers and the Weather Underground?

EXCLUSIVE: The SPLC indictment, the Klan history behind it, and the ignominy of Todd Blanche. Another dark day for DOJ. Tonight, at Law Dork:

We have over 50 scientists from 25 states in DC ready to meet their policymakers to talk about the importance of science and a strong scientific workforce. 💪🔭🧪🧑‍🔬 Join from home and take two minutes to contact your legislators today: agu.quorum.us/campaign/160...

You know originalism is fake because they don't teach history in law school.

Nailed it... ☕

We are ready for the fight! @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social: “If Florida Republicans proceed with this illegal scheme, they will only create more prime pick-up opportunities for Democrats, just as they did with Trump’s dummymander in Texas. Maximum warfare, everywhere, all the time.” Full statement👇🏻

This administration pretends to honor the 250th, but brazenly dismisses its most profound legacies. 250 years ago this month, Washington’s surgeon general John Morgan wrote that government must “provide for the safety of its members by rendering the practice of inoculation as universal as possible.”

There's no legal basis for these boat strikes, and US officials involved in them should be prosecuted for attempted murder and murder. The OLC memo green-lighting the strikes is still secret, but there's nothing it could say that would make these strikes lawful. www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

A little background on who the Southern Poverty Law Center is and what kind of work they’ve been doing for decades makes it clear that DOJ’s indictment (which is of the center, not of any individuals) is vindictive & malicious, an attack on civil rights work itself. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Are we underestimating the economic costs and consequences of Trump’s Iran catastrophe? Rhetorical question. Answer:,Yes. And by a lot.

Reading the FT front page story about a Chinese company introducing a battery with a 1500 km range & six minute recharging time & about how two Chinese companies own more than half of the global EV battery market & I am struck by the different realities the US and China occupy. We’ve lost the plot.

A fin *toddler* could have told us that the fowl malfeasant was lying.

It's those filthy, starving Irish sailing out of the port of New Ross, isn't it. /s

So, first the Trump DOJ diverts law enforcement resources away from monitoring white supremacist extremism. And then targets one of the organizations most committed to monitoring the white extremist threat. Message received. Loud and clear.

I would submit that a gerrymander by politicians saying fuck the voters and one by voters saying fuck the politicians are two wholly different animals

Not a penny to make life more affordable for American families, but $70 BILLION for ICE to terrorize our communities.

This is monstrous. Just profoundly shameful behavior by our government. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/21/w...

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?!?!?!? Our veterans should be outraged. This man is a fucking monster. When this is all over and he dies in prison and his fortunes and liquidated -may these folks get some of those riches. #FUCKDONALDTRUMP #USDemocracy

Remembered. bsky.app/profile/kc-m...

Newly released records on the police response to the assassination of Melissa Hortman show officers knew a woman was lying motionless on the top of the stairs inside the Hortman home but waited 30 minutes to physically check on her.

Remember, Democrats have repeatedly advanced measures to ban partisan gerrymandering and Republicans have voted against them time after time. This is the game Republicans wanted to play. OK, then.

The Army's 411th Contracting Support Brigade recently held its first military ball to celebrate its 50th anniversary of playing a critical, behind-the-scenes role in sustaining U.S. forces' readiness in the Pacific. From Stars and Stripes' Yoojin Lee at Camp Humphreys, South Korea:

“hey we didn’t start this shit but it’s on” re gerrymandering is the most fight Dems have shown in… well, quite a while

I was thinking this👇🏻

this morning, mamdani’s team got in touch with me to float a new tax proposal: if your net worth exceeds $5 million and you dress badly, you’ll be hit with a 10% annual levy for “visual pollution.” i would be in charge of deciding if the outfits are bad.

A Democrat who was elected sheriff in Pennsylvania last fall hopes others are watching: “It sends a message to elected public safety officials across the country that partnering with ICE is a loser in a district that’s remotely a swing district.”
