“It’s in our power to change this trajectory, secure a future that represents our better selves, and rebuild a country that can be a magnet again. The most cynical might find my lingering optimism naïve, but I look forward to…when such optimism wins out.” www.americaamerica.news/p/once-a-mag...

The Chicago GOP amplified a “protest” of Senator Chris Van Hollen so I dropped by out of curiosity and there were literally two people there lmao

“A new study models the impact of the implosion of U.S.-funded disease treatment and prevention in the developing world — and suggests that Elon Musk and Marco Rubio will go down as among history’s greatest monsters if funding and effective administration are not restored.”

Make sure you understand the SAVE Act, which will seriously suppress voting rights, not prevent fraud as its sponsors claim.

We will not be distracted. We will not be discouraged. We’ve got our eyes on the prize. And we will build the prosperous, free nation for all that we deserve. The time to organize is now. OcasioCortez.com

SMH. Two GOP aka Republican members Steele and Curbelo hosting and cohosting a prime time news (?) show on MSNBC. Oh MSNBC what are you thinking with all of your restructuring? Steele asks "How did we get here?" Oh I don't know maybe with the GOPenabling aka not stopping MAGA? @msnbc.com

Update: The House just passed the Republican voter suppression measure that threatens voting access for millions of Americans, including 69 million women whose married names don't match their birth certificates. Make sure your senators know you expect them to stand against it.

Seriously? Because we were told they were going to deport violent criminals.

Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married? Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote. Call your rep—this is not a drill. indivisible.org/resource/cal...

“So, back to where it always was,” said one Indiana field office employee. “What a waste of our time.” www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Bessent has so much freezer and filler he can barely move his lips. #NotMyGay

This guy on Ari? I just can't.

We found the voter fraud!!!!!

Republicans used to say “undocumented immigrants don’t pay taxes.” Now the IRS is handing their tax data to DHS… So which is it? Seems like you’d have to pay taxes to even have tax data…

We fight to give hope — a reminder that there are still those within the government standing up for what’s right. Since Saturday, we’ve faced relentless attacks. We know there will be consequences for our actions, but we will not back down.

It’s a month since the administration detained and disappeared a green card holder, a lawful permanent resident. We cannot allow this to be normalized or forgotten.

Trash.

This is what election-rigging looks like.

While doing some research, I stumbled across this great listing of YA books on Japanese internment in WWII, which feels like good reading for today's kids, so, I'm sharing. densho.org/catalyst/you...

Folks in the Chicago area, we hear that tickets are still available.
