Pundits should have a batting average. And be paid accordingly.

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”

Thanks to George Conway for posting Caroline Kennedy's letter so everyone is informed about RFK Jr. Please repost far and wide.

We are in the days of shock & awful, where Trump tries to make people feel so overwhelmed by all the rapid changes & actions that they quit trying to keep up. Don't give into that. Learn about what you have the bandwidth for. Understand that these are steps being taken to break down democracy.

Courage is being afraid but going on anyhow. We must recognize the resisters, the courageous who are fighting back.

Stop what you're doing & read this exceptional piece from @brennancenter.bsky.social's @mawaldman.bsky.social that explains how the pending SAVE Act will make it more difficult for Americans to vote, ending advances in online and mail in registration brennancenter.substack.com/p/restrictin...

A rare spot of good news: The Minnesota Supreme Court rejects Republican representatives’ unconstitutional effort to establish a quorum in the House. So Republicans can’t seize control of the chamber as they’d intended, and will have to enter a power-sharing agreement with Democrats.

JUST IN: Judge MEHTA has barred Stewart Rhodes and other Oath Keepers whose sentences were *commuted* from going into Washinton or the U.S. Capitol without permission from the court.

🚨NEW: Judge Tanya Chutkan slams Donald Trump over the dismissal of all January 6th criminal cases: “it cannot whitewash the blood, feces, and terror that the mob left in its wake." REPOST to thank Judge Chutkan for standing up to Donald Trump!

Yes, it can happen again. 👀

Mike refers to her “radical ideology.” Others would call that ideology “Christian.” And others might say, “compassionate and humane.” Bishop Budde and Mike Johnson Debate the Bible open.substack.com/pub/borowitz...

Trump is NOT a break from the old GOP. Think Jesse Helms, Rush Limbaugh, Strom Thurmond, Willie Horton ads, the lies about WMD in Iraq. This poisonous fruit grew from seeds planted long ago, watered by Republican officials with conspiracy theories, lies, cynicism, greed, and bigotry.

This is exactly how I feel. It's a moment to practice radical kindness.

So far here’s a list of companies reinforcing their commitment to Diversity, Equity & Inclusion: Apple Costco Bank of America Delta JP Morgan Marriott Microsoft Procter & Gamble Goldman Sachs American Airlines Southwest Airlines United Airlines Catholic Health

A great one from David Cohen of the Asheville Citizen Times
