Republicans’ new slogan is “We are all going to die”. Their new MAGA Murder Budget will make sure it happens quickly.

Tulsa’s new mayor proposed a $100 million private trust as part of a reparations plan to give descendants of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre scholarships and housing help in a city-backed bid to make amends for one of the worst racial attacks in US history.

Ukraine’s Security Service chief, Vasyl Maliuk, reported that 41 Russian aircraft were damaged, including A-50, Tu-95, Tu-22M3, and Tu-160. In total, 34% of Russia’s strategic cruise missile carriers at key airbases were hit, with an estimated damage value exceeding $7 billion.

Ukraine did something that the US and Europe failed to do for nearly half a century, it crippled Russia’s ability to launch nuclear weapons and long range strikes. At least one arm of Russia’s nuclear trident was destroyed. Ukraine did that, on its own, successfully. Have you said thank you yet?

Stop stealing and murdering our Native Women, girls, boys, and men! In America and Canada! Enough already! #SheShed

Imagine being handed the ultimate weapon to win a future war and throwing that weapon away. That's what RFK Jr. just did this week. Read the latest report in The Breakdown from @citizencohn.bsky.social

What this does, as DHS is well aware, is prevent people engaging with actual service workers and makes their lives harder. It also means utility workers will face hostility and might come to resent migrant communities and activists, which again is probably seen as desirable.

The Trump administration is working with private companies like Palantir to create detailed reports on every American, which could help them weaponize our personal information in their quest to deport immigrants and punish critics. This is a huge threat to our constitutional rights.

Judge Christine Donohue has stellar credentials, with too many awards and honors to list here. She has served Pennsylvania with honesty and integrity on the state Supreme Court and deserves retention. Re-Elect Christine Donohue Pennsylvania Supreme Court

This crap is not just in the USA. Good thing she has a reputation as a historical failure.

Trump: “Ukraine has no cards!” Ukraine <destroys 1/3rd of Russias bomber force> Trump: “”

Chris Murphy on Joni Ernst: "I think everybody in that audience knows they're going to die, they would just rather die in old age at 85 or 90 instead of dying at 40. And the reality is that when you lose your healthcare, you are much more at risk of early death."

I am at a global health conference this week. I do not think Americans fully understand the degree of harm we have done to our international reputation and to our ability to wield soft power for decades to come.

I just realized we haven’t left the house other than to fill the birdfeeders or take out garbage in almost a week. Pretty sure it’s just a cold—Covid test came back negative—but whatever is going around the East Coast is 🤧😷

One year ago today: Never forget any of his crimes

The pundits, journalists, columnists, etc., used to be able to claim membership in a high caste merely by virtue of being able to be heard or read by lots of people. Now that any moron can do that, the legacy figured want to distinguish their caste by being able to be heard and not be challenged.

Lots of legal news this week, so easy to miss that NPR has filed a lawsuit against Trump. Protecting the 1st Am & the balance of power among the 3 branches of gov't is a big deal right now & it's all happening here. joycevance.substack.com/p/big-bird-f...

Beyond parody.

They’re too busy lobbying Congress for more tax cuts. 🫤

The country's prime minister stressed on Wednesday that although the island nation doesn't have a military, "that doesn't mean we don't have strong defences and a role to play in NATO." #EuropeNews

#ProudBlue Bravo! 👏 More of this, please.

ICYMI: A federal court recognized what we’ve long known - President Trump's attempts to radically restructure and dismantle the federal government w/o Congress are simply unlawful. We secured an order immediately pausing these efforts at 20+ agencies while our case continues in court.

Systemic protections and guardrails are essential to a functioning society. Nature understands this even if oligarchs don't.

Substack isn’t just for writers anymore. Democratic politicians are using it to escape the algorithm, explain their policies, and Substack is hoping they'll even launch campaigns on the platform. Read more from @lauren-egan.bsky.social: ‬

"This doesn’t mean America is prepared to resume large-scale military assistance. But there are still three ways we can help: weapons sales to Ukraine, stepped-up sanctions against Russia, and maintaining the flow of critical U.S. intelligence to Kyiv."

Just Returning To The Pre-Reagan Tax Rates Would Make All The Difference We Need…

New data finds Americans are more likely to support labor unions over Big Business than at any time in the past 60 years. We are witnessing a historic rebirth of worker power.  If you want a better life for you and your children, join or support a union.

I don’t like to share memes, but my friend who has no social media shared this with me. They discussed at their church club. One of the the people from her group shared it. I live in Michigan. I hold the line!

Tom Homan, one of the top officials behind the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown, is facing questions after it was revealed he was paid by a private prison company that stands to profit from the government’s detention policies.
