Y'all, @katmabu.bsky.social is the type of Dem I want to be fighting for. Her use of campaign money to actually serve the community she wants to represent is rad. Her ability to speak clearly against MAGA insanity is radical in every sense of the word.

Those on the high court often exercise caution in their choice of words. That is why it was striking when she used an audience of lawyers to deliver a stern message to the legal profession: stand up for democracy, take on the hard fights and do whatever you can to win.

The 80-year recipe stoking America’s Prosperity: 1) Free-market capital investments in brilliant ideas… 2) enabled by Engineering Innovations… 3) based on Science Research in Universities… 4) funded by Grants from the US Government. It’s time more people understood this.

When a state forces a brain-dead pregnant woman to remain on life support against her family's wishes, it abandons its humanity. This is not pro-life; it's a profound violation of human rights. The trauma of continuing a pregnancy under such circumstances is unimaginable.

Meiselas: A lot of marginalized communities see fair-weather supporters—people who are with them when it seems cool, and then abandon them when the seasons change. I think that’s bullshit. I think you’ve got to stand with people and be who you are.

So, you might be wondering: does it matter if Covid shots are recommended? Yes, yes it does. 1. Insurance won't cover them if they're not recommended. That's a HUGE challenge for a lot of people. 2. If more people skip the shots, manufacturers will make fewer doses, making them harder to find.

Sotomayor’s support for the aggressive pro-democracy movement is so important at this critical time. She understands that while we must bring difficult cases and be willing to lose, we must always fight to win. And by lending her voice she affirmed that it is “our time to stand up and be heard.”
