It’s been six months since the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. Here is how the federal government has stonewalled investigations, and how Minnesota law enforcement is attempting to push for accountability anyway

🕯️The death toll in Vyshneve, Kyiv Oblast, as a result of Russian strikes last night has risen to 7. Another 29 were injured. Four rescuers were among the wounded. Ukrainian authorities reported that five streets, and nearly 100 houses in total, were destroyed.

Every single line in this post is a lie. That’s quite an achievement.

Colorado Gov. Jared Polis fired 2 members of his clemency advisory board today for publicly speaking against his decision to free Tina Peters after she was convicted of election-related crimes, his office confirmed to @coltrain.bsky.social

Jared Polis once had a bright future in Democratic politics. Now he will be known as the Democrat who aided and abetted Trump’s Big Lie. Polis’ contempt for the voters who elected him is a pattern of behavior that we see from far too many Democrats. Colorado Indivisibles can’t wait to replace Polis.

Reminder to Colorado journalists: if you’re interviewing a winning candidate who usually claims that elections are rigged, ask them why this election was rigged in their favor.

Set for a few months 😂

NEW—'On Courage' is a new book out tomorrow by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist @juliaangwin.com and Harvard Kennedy School senior fellow @fieldsmeyer.com about the many ways regular people have dissented against autocracy. Read this EXCLUSIVE excerpt about a former HUD lawyer challenging Trump:

We all live in a land of make believe

There is a problem with the stories we tell & the way we perceive how change happens. The Union of Pinnacle Tenants, the largest tenant-led union in NYC—are the reason Mamdani took action. Organized people power is pivotal. Top down stories of elected heroes (even ones we like) are not sufficient.

According to a CNN analysis, Trump has said at least 38 times since late March that Iran and the United States were close to reaching an agreement or that Tehran was eager to strike a deal. gulfnews.com/world/americ...

voting isn't a moral good if you don't know shit about fuck and are just picking a name based on a vague desire to burn things down.

How about those murder charges for the other goons?

To be fair, I think this applies to all Republicans

"Despite claims by my U.S. representative, Gabe Evans, that my Medicaid and access to care would be unaffected by H.R. 1, I now have proof to the contrary."

7 hours left for a shot at all this! 48th Engineering needs a car lift. War is hard on cars. They drive over roads in horrid condtion. They're driven maybe harder than they were built to. They get blown up. Fixing them expediently is huge, so this week's raffle buys it. Tix: tinyurl.com/2zcwz39h

(engage old man mode) A large part of me being employable stems from hours (and hours) of reading text files during my teens/early twenties. So sad to see what the Internet ended up becoming 😕

Either you want to make an issue of it and hammer Republicans for enabling it or you don’t. If you do, you force the vote on doing something about it. You can’t denounce the other party for refusing to do something you’re afraid to even try yourself.

Shocking I tell ya www.9news.com/article/news...

Jared Polis is a coward who capitulates to MAGA bullies. He is unfit to lead in this moment, is a disgrace to Colorado and the country, and should resign. www.npr.org/2026/05/15/n...

Will just reiterate that in the many years I covered Polis closely, he never showed particular interest in the topic of over-sentencing, nor in criminal justice reform generally. This decision would read a lot differently if Polis had any sort of record as an advocate for clemency.

Imagine if you will, a world where elected officials simply do their fucking job.

This clemency grant to Tina Peters is an affront to our democracy, the people of Colorado, and election officials across the country. The Governor’s actions today will validate and embolden the election denial movement, and leave a dark, dangerous imprint on American democracy for years to come.

There are people still living who fought — and watched their compatriots be murdered — for the passage of this act and to attempt to democratize America. To see it completed felled in the span of their OWN lifetime is just absolutely devastating.

It’s been >5 months since the Epstein Files Transparency Act was signed into law. The DOJ has yet to bring forward any new charges against any individual as millions of files are still (illegally) undisclosed. The rules are different for billionaires than for the rest of us.

This is a first for me. CO Rep. Lauren Boebert's financial disclosure for 2024 discloses nothing. No book royalties, no bank accounts, no home mortgage. (And she filed this late and had to pay a fine.) #copolitics
