The entire thread is worth a deep dive, but this first post hits hard.

I mean, yeah. I think that's exactly what happened. Damn.

If members of the press are worried they didn’t give enough coverage to the cognitive decline of a sitting president, they have an amazing opportunity to make up for it right now.

In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here.

@senatedemocrats.bsky.social this one's for you

In case you prefer to hear Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg read her letter about RFK Jr.

Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg's letter is well worth a read.

Good to know

The most common question I receive is how everyday citizens can help in the fight for democracy. My advice, take the first step, start with something small and see what works for you. Here are ten things all of us can do. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/10-t...

Reminded of and crying about the fact that Rev. Budde is also the person who provided Matthew Shepard's family with a safe haven for their son's remains. This is the person these fascists trying to brand themselves as Christians are targeting with hate, right now. www.npr.org/2018/10/26/6....
