So after years of bluster, incl yesterday on the courthouse steps, Lindell joins the long list of others (Giuliani, Lake, Fox News) who, when offered the chance to present evidence - in court - of their claims of alleged election fraud, conceded and ran away.

When I do this kind of thing (if you're new here, hi, I do this kind of thing) I get a lot of "all my electeds are R, it won't matter." 1. They still need to know - we pay them! 2. Lots & lots of calls can induce enough fear to sway them. 3. WEATHER IS NON-PARTISAN. THEY DON'T WANT THE BLOW BACK.

I used to work for an org that lobbied to maintain LIHEAP (the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program). LIHEAP was part of LBJ’s Great Society program. It was reduced to a block grant under Reagan. The GOP has been trying to get rid of it for decades. Millions of the most vulnerable will suffer.

ICYMI: Trump is proposing lots of devastating cuts to HHS in his 2026 budget request. But one of the cruelest is a single line that ends all funding for a program that keeps low-income people from freezing to death in their homes. His justification? DEI. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

In Florida, about 15-20% of homes are uninsured, due to the current impact of climate change. And now the Trump administration has gutted the nation's ability to forecast hurricanes and put in charge of FEMA a man so clueless he didn't realize "hurricane season" is an actual thing. Buckle up.

Rodney Taylor is a double amputee suffering extreme medical neglect at an ICE detention facility in Georgia. The reason he's detained? "A burglary conviction he received as a teen & which Georgia pardoned him for in 2010" When ICE took him, he was 2 days away from receiving new prosthetics /1

Damn. This is dramatic. I had heard a couple days ago that a Nadler staffer had been arrested but was waiting for confirmation. So now we know what happened; ICE officers barged into the district office trying to arrest other people, handcuffed a staffer who pushed back, then let her go, no arrest.
