Republican House Rep. Chuck Edwards is facing an Ethics Committee investigation into alleged sexual misconduct of female staffers. Where are all the Republicans like Nancy Mace and Anna Paulina Luna screeching for him to resign?

Donald inadvertently self-owned.

While this is good news... we cannot depend upon others to vote. We each need to bring 5 people to the polls this November to make damn sure we take back our Democracy 💪 #BlueTsunami2026

I often say that the fight for democracy is the fight of our generation. But let me be clear, if you aren’t fighting for Black voting rights right now then you aren’t really fighting for democracy.

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

Crippling our ability to anticipate & track storms & then also crippling our ability to aid communities hit by storms & then also crippling any kind of social safety net that might help individuals hurt by storms. The GOP is a death cult. It's not a metaphor.

Giving billionaires and corporations the green light to buy our elections. Making it easier for polluters to destroy the planet. Stripping millions of reproductive freedom. Granting presidents immunity. Gutting the protections of the Voting Rights Act. The shame of the John Roberts court.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Our government has been subsidizing oil and gas for DECADES. Yet they threw a fit over clean energy tax credits and then killed them the first chance they had. Wind and solar are the cheapest energy we have, and those credits were putting money back in your pocket.

Maine had a burgeoning, nation-leading community solar boom going ... but the legislature just basically killed it. *Democrats* killed it. *In the name of affordability.* JESUS FUCKING CHRIST this party loves shooting itself in the dick.

I hope you’ll read the article and support my campaign to take back this seat and flip the house. @wellmanformo outinstl.com/in-conversat...

Yes please!!! 👇👇👇👏👏👏

“If the Supreme Court’s Voting Rights Act decision and Mr. Trump’s mid-cycle redistricting campaign allowed Republicans to win the House while badly losing the national vote, it would be yet another blow to the credibility of American institutions during a time of bitter division.”

📌The Republican Party has become so brazen in their odious efforts to erase Black people, they no longer feel the need to wear hoods while they pile high barriers to voting booths, and leadership positions in our government, universities, and places of influence. This is a national emergency.

Please don’t listen to anyone in corrupt corporate media telling you the GOP will win the House bc of redistricting. We will still win it but it will take a lot of work. It will also take Democrats delivering a message of more than anti-Trump. They must vow to deliver REAL change that helps people.

The Speaker of the House in Alabama calls on the courts to “overturn the 14th Amendment.” This is the same legislative body, a court found engaged in intentional racial discrimination in drawing voting maps in the Milligan case. x.com/austinpratt_...

Dems running for president in 2028 should consider pledging to replace Trump's ballroom with a museum devoted to American democracy and all our struggles over it. For good measure, let's throw in an exhibit about Jan 6. END newrepublic.com/article/2101...

Trump is spending more than $6 million of our money to paint the bottom of the Reflecting Pool blue, using a no-bid contract to spend funds intended for urgent needs. His emergency? July 4 celebration. Meanwhile, 35 million Americans live in poverty. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/08/u...

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but what’s going on in the south right now with voting rights and erasure, is a “kitchen table issue” — for Black families. And it should be for everyone.

This is what organizing looks like. Hawaii just took a hammer to Citizens United and proved states can fight back against corporate money in politics.

this is the closest I've ever come to actually suggesting a "one neat trick" suggestion for anything, but I'm so serious here. the Virginia Constitution gives the legislature the power to set retirement ages for judges "REGARDLESS OF THE TERM TO WHICH ELECTED OR APPOINTED." make it 54 right now.

A liberal lawyer running for Georgia’s supreme court says the court is essential for protecting voting rights in the state. “People are going to have to start bringing more and more of these challenges to the state’s court system.”

Can someone let the AP know that violating court orders is not a sign of "executive power. " It is a sign of contempt, lawlessness and authoritarianism.

On average, someone has died in ICE custody every 6 days this year, yet the agency is rapidly expanding detention by converting warehouses into immigration detention camps. ICE is putting lives at risk and must not move forward with this reckless plan.

This is devastating, if unsurprising, especially since it's unlikely that the current SKKKOTUS will fix it. Mife is one of two key medicines in medical abortions, which have made up over 65% of all *clinician-provided* abortions & telehealth has been 27% of clinics providing abortions *overall.* +

ICYMI: Voters in Louisiana are suing the state after the governor suspended an active election, warning that the state’s actions threaten to disenfranchise voters and undermine the integrity of the election. Experts call the situation unprecedented.

Even during the darkest days of the Jim Crow era, efforts to disenfranchise Black voters have always claimed to be "race neutral." The Supreme Court's decision to weaken the Voting Rights Act is Jim Crow in new clothes.

After ultra-conservative Fifth Circuit issued an order blocking abortion pills by telemedicine and the mail, the drug's manufacturer has filed an emergency appeal with the Supreme Court.

Wait, I thought if 60 Minutes edited an interview with a politician in the slightest, that was grounds for a lawsuit?

Drugmaker just asked Supreme Court to immediately lift an "unprecedented" appeals court order blocking mifepristone by mail, which the FDA has allowed since 2023. What will the high court do? @chrisgeidner.bsky.social @lawdorknews.bsky.social www.lawdork.com/p/mifepristo...

The Senate passed the Voting Rights Act renewal in 2006 by a vote of 98-0. The Supreme Court majority gutted it on the grounds that the Justices personally dislike the impact.

The same day SCOTUS dismantled the Voting Rights Act, I watched Kamala Harris take the stage at the Douglas Awards. She didn’t offer comfort; she offered real talk 🔥 “This is how they play. They are strategic. They think long-term and they are ruthless…we have to be ruthless too.”

Reminder that Amazon... -Helps fuel ICE's deportation machine -Donated $1M to Trump's inauguration -Scrapped plans to display tariff costs after pressure from Trump -Shelled out $75M for the Melania movie And now wants to reboot The Apprentice — with Don Jr as host. Still shopping on Amazon?

Trump's administration is pulling apart families in the cruelest way imaginable. Wilfredo is a 10 year old Venezuelan child who Trump’s monsters are trying to deport to a 3rd country that he's never been to alone. The depravity is unbelievable. Please share this story of #ICELawlessness widely.

Now we know that Trump has already spent $25 billion on his senseless war in Iran when we have an affordability crisis at home. Let's bring our troops home, stop wasting our money on this illegal and immoral war, and start spending it on working families.

Obama: "Today's Supreme Court decision effectively guts a key pillar of the Voting Rights Act, freeing state legislatures to … systematically dilute and weaken the voting power of racial minorities - so long as they do it under the guise of 'partisanship' rather than explicit 'racial bias.'"

I am unspeakably angry about this turnout gap figure, and it gives insight into the whole ballgame for gutting the VRA. Alito points out that Black turnout exceeded White turnout twice in 5 elections. The argument is garbage 1/x
