This is what we could have had, but Kamala Harris gives an empowering speech and urges all of us to fight and not give up, though it won’t be easy but necessary—“Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty to stay alert, seek the truth, and to fight for America’s future” KH. LFG!

Powerful piece by @pamherd.bsky.social about the effect of extensive cuts in government funding. It's not just the cruel effects on people's lives but also the shortsightedness to stop smart driven people from wanting to go into government. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/who-is-inc...

Van Hollen: "There's no Article 4 in the Constitution that gives Elon Musk that authority, and the way he's been 'delegated' this authority is illegal, and the actions he's taking are illegal, and we need to shut down this illegal operation."

Who could have guessed that the former leader of the Proud Boys—convicted of sedition because of January 6th—would, after Trump pardoned him, start to harass the hero cops of January 6th? Who could ever have guessed it? (This went down at the Principles First conference in D.C.)

Brilliant protest. Yosemite National Park workers hung an upside-down American flag — traditionally a symbol of distress or a national threat — thousands of feet off the ground on the side of El Capitan.

🚨Please let your member of Congress know how crucial telehealth is. For me it’s been a godsend, not having to travel as much & save my energy, which I have very little of at times. Telehealth actually was expanded under the first Donald Trump administration due to Covid locking down medical centers.

The heads of multiple federal agencies have told their employees not to respond to Musk’s email. Seems like Musk would’ve gotten approval for this draconian change in policy from Trump, with Cabinet officers informed in advance. But no, because this admin is in utter chaos.

Since Jan 6 our world has turned upside down. Canada is under threat like never before. There are still 8 months left in this parliament. We can put aside our fights and come together for Canada. These are my thoughts on how normal politics is no more. charlieangus.substack.com/p/no-return-...

This language is in every voucher bill in the country now. The billionaires pushing voucher schemes are assuring private schools they’ll get to keep choosing their students—instead of protections for parents. Let’s treat vouchers as the looming consumer fraud problem they are.
