The American Civil Liberties Union of Montana filed a motion Tuesday to intervene in a lawsuit challenging a state law that slashes same-day voter registration hours and threatens to disenfranchise Indigenous voters across the state. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Ready to run for office 🄰

Responsible leaders of American institutions must deal with the tyrant in the Oval Office by saying unequivocally ā€œnoā€ and unambiguously refusing to do what he demands. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/how-not-to-submit-to-a-tyrant

Most people support taxing carbon even if it costs them, global survey shows

Brilliant. 10/10. No notes.

Filipkowski: I believe we’re worse off now—and we don’t even know for sure that Iran was moving toward developing a nuclear weapon before this. They certainly will be now. They now know, definitively, that the only way to deter Israel and the U.S. is to have a nuclear deterrent themselves.

Trump is singling out a woman reporter on social media less than two weeks after one of his supporters killed Melissa Hortman and her husband and her dog. This insanity needs to stop.

Boyle: For every American household that makes under $55,000 a year, they will be poorer as a result of this bill. So it's quite clear under this Republican betrayal— the poor get poorer, the rich get richer, and the middle class falling further behind. This is wrong.

Schiff: So Mr. Bove would have us believe that all those people are just making this up… Apparently, everyone has it wrong—except Emil Bove. I just don’t believe him. I don’t think anyone believes him. And today, he made it abundantly clear why no one should.

In the time you spend watching this video, Jeff Bezos will earn more than what the majority of full-time American workers earn in a year. Say it with me: Tax the rich.

Watch this. Because this is the way: Local officials using their platform right, reaching out to the community. Ambrocio ā€œEnriqueā€ Lozano, affectionately known as ā€œthe popsicle man,ā€ was reportedly abducted in broad daylight in Culver City. Masked man. White van. Cart left behind in the street.

Crockett: The First Lady, a model— when I say model I’m not talking about Tyra Banks, Cindy Crawford, or Naomi Campbell level— applied for an Einstein visa. You’re supposed to have some sort of significant achievement… She had none of those. It doesn’t take an Einstein to see the math ain’t mathin

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security.Ā  Ā  Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Ā  Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Wake up Democratic Party old guard establishment. This isn’t about New York City. This is the way the wind is blowing. Step aside for young people who this country will need over the next several decades long after you are gone. Enough with your egos and the big money interests.

A federal judge in Tennessee just denied the government’s request to keep Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia locked up while it appeals his release. Judge Waverly D. Crenshaw Jr. upheld the magistrate’s order to free Abrego Garcia,

People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

This is a Hall of Fame reader comment on a very reactionary op-ed about Zohran Mamdani's victory that was published in my local paper today.

This is an easy one. Disbar him.

You don't "not recall" telling DOJ lawyers to say "fuck you" to court orders. You either remember saying it, or you remember that you definitely didn't say it. Emil Bove saying he doesn't recall means he definitely said it, and there's a roomful of people that can testify to it.

A feel good video: a boss gifts a brand new bicycle to her employee with autism.

Sen. Adam Schiff: "Did you suggest telling the courts '*** you' in any manner?" Emil Bove: "I don't recall." Schiff questioned Bove on a whistleblower report claiming Bove suggested to DOJ officials that they ignore court orders to carry out deportations: www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

If you’re zip-tying grandmas protesting losing health care maybe you’re not the good guys in the story?

NEW: FBI Abandons Stephen Miller’s Migrant Round-Up in Humiliating Blow Federal investigators are being pulled off migrant duty to ensure that potential Iranian terror threats are spotted and thwarted.

Phang: If you were scrolling on social media and saw a dog locked up in the middle of the Everglades—in the sun, in the heat, in the humidity—the outrage would be wild, wouldn’t it? But then—we’re okay with human beings being treated like that?

It’s hard to overstate how angry rank and file Dems are at the Dem establishment right now. And if I were a self-preservationist incumbent I would take note.

šŸ’° WATCH: ā€œHow is that happening?ā€ šŸ¤·šŸ¼ā€ā™‚ļø @aoc.bsky.social informs a confused RFK Jr. that his own HHS is stuffing the pockets of insurance companies by doubling the rates taxpayers pay them even as they defraud us. šŸ¤”

Surprisingly effective things Zohran Mamdani ran on: -free buses -rent freeze -halal cart for $8 instead of $10 -taxing the 1% -no cost childcare -city-owned grocery stores -a Department Of Community Safety for mental health programs and crisis response -building affordable housing -why Cuomo sucks

Schrier to RFK Jr: You gave Cassidy the answer he needed to hear in order to get his confirmation vote, then as soon as you were secretary you turned around & fired all 17 members. You lied. I also want to be clear that I will lay all responsibility for every vaccine-preventable death at your feet.

VEASEY: You've credited the 12 steps in your recovery. What's step 4? RFK JR: Making a fearless inventory VEASEY: Of ourselves. Do you remember step 12? RFK JR: We try to help other addicts VEASEY: Does cutting off treatment from people still suffering align with step 4 or step 12?

Today marks the third anniversary of the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. What's happened since? A record number of women have been prosecuted. Pregnancy loss is now considered extremely suspicious, even when it has nothing to do with abortion.

Shameful. I expect they will be sued.šŸ‘‡ "Nearly 100,000 North Carolina voters will be required to take an additional step to verify their identity or risk being disenfranchised under a plan approved by the GOP-controlled state board of elections Tuesday." www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Jeff Bezos is worth $230 billion and is reportedly spending $20 million on a three-day wedding in Venice while sailing around on his $500 million yacht. If he can afford to do that, he can afford a wealth tax and to pay Amazon workers a living wage. Hello?

Losing his sh*t It’s Tuesday. There are 497 days until the midterm elections. Orange SCOTUS endorses slavery and human-trafficking, chickencrap Cassidy has some concerns and a Trumpian tantrum.

UPDATE: Hero at the Torrance car wash, Bertha Alicia GuzmĆ”n, is speaking out after stepping in like a boss during an ā€œimmigration raidā€. She helped stop a worker from being taken by ā€œICEā€ agents suspected of being imposters.
