The moment you realize you're toast in a blue blazer.

Democracy isn’t dying in darkness it’s being dismantled at the hands of the Supreme Court of North Carolina. @allisonjriggs.bsky.social won this election fair and square back in November. Her opponent is a petulant Confederate cosplayer who can’t handle losing. Concede Jefferson Griffin.

Coons: "In addition to putting on a car show in front of the White House explicitly to benefit the stock value of Elon Musk, his billionaire buddy Elon Musk pledged another $100m to support Trump's political campaign efforts. The public corruption at the very core of this is just shocking."

Good morning ☕

'Did you even say thank you?'

We're an international embarrassment. Our allies can't trust us, and we're now doing performative displays in the White House to impress Russia. Republicans own this, and the destruction of the United States as a global leader in freedom and democracy.

All the folks who exited NBC today. Seen together, hoo boy. Message received.

Dozens more pregnant and postpartum women have died in Texas hospitals since the state banned abortion, ProPublica’s analysis shows. As the maternal mortality rate dropped nationally, it rose in Texas by 33%.
