WTF. The person in charge of our education system has no idea about the Tulsa race massacre or any clue who Ruby Bridges is... FYI, Linda McMahon is 6 years OLDER than Ruby...

The disastrous Citizens United decision put a for-sale sign on our democracy and has permitted $15 BILLION in outside spending since 2010. Our campaign finance system is broken, and if we want to fix it, we need to #EndCitizensUnited.

25 years ago today, “American Skin (41 Shots)” debuted in Atlanta — towards the end of the Reunion Tour — in response to the tragic killing of Amadou Diallo. It has since been performed in dedication to other victims of brutality, including Trayvon Martin and George Floyd.

Even with massive cuts to Medicaid & SNAP… even after slashing housing, and gutting public education… Republicans’ $3.7 trillion tax cuts still add $2.4 trillion to the deficit. Our kids & grandkids will have the GOP to thank for the economic train wreck they will be left with.

“One Big Beautiful Bill”? Try one big, bold-faced lie. They swore this mess wouldn’t add to the deficit…but the nonpartisan budget office says otherwise. $2.4 TRILLION added to the deficit—and for what? Tax cuts for the rich.

The worst-kept secret in Washington is that Elon Musk was never really running DOGE; Russell Vought was. Vought, who is White House budget director and Mister Project 2025, will continue to do so. My latest: newrepublic.com/article/1960...

I'm not a political scientist but if you're advice to the Democratic Party is pushing out unions, immigrants, and queers then I think there's already a party for that

Another demonstration of the fact that there is no point in bending to Trump, not just morally, but strategically. Columbia gave in & he just hits them harder... MAGA's goal is to destroy the universities (& newspapers & law firms etc etc etc) and the only logical approach is to unite and fight back

Pharmacy benefit managers’ business practices have operated with little regulation, transparency, and accountability for far too long. Illinois is putting an end to that and leading the nation in bringing transparency to PBM drug pricing.

Trump got no concessions from his boss, but he did make it clear to Vladimir Putin that the United States is OK with Russia brutally retaliating against Ukraine's attacks on its planes, probably by attacking Ukrainian civilians. What a worthless clown.

Even if "white British" will be a minority in the UK in 40 years - so what? Seriously, so what? What is so terrible about that? Make people spell out their horrors. Make them spell out the things they are supposedly not allowed to say. Make them own it.

I would love it if people who use AI would read this and really internalize the kind of system they are interacting with. Hopefully they'll reevaluate if "confident liar machine built on mass plagiarism" is something we really need. If a person acted like this, you'd ditch 'em.

It says a lot about where we’re at in this country that a beloved voice actor was murdered by his homophobic neighbor and every headline is still running passive defense for his killer, doing everything not to call this hate crime what it was. These are scary times. RIP to Jonathan Joss.

Harvey Milk served his country honorably — first in uniform, then in public office. Taking his name off this Navy ship sends a clear message, and it’s one of disrespect and cruelty.

Republicans are going to force 7.4 million Americans into hunger so billionaires can continue to write off the full cost of their private jets and yachts on their taxes. 8 of the 10 states hardest hit will be Republican states. Republicans call this "America First."
