I believe this. "We kill at every step, not only in wars, riots and executions. We kill when we close our eyes to poverty, suffering and shame. In the same way all disrespect for life, all hard-heartedness, all indifference, all contempt is nothing else than killing." Hermann Hesse

Off to vote in our small town’s (pop 21k+) school board and city council elections. We live on the outskirts of San Antonio. These elections are so important, folks, especially SBs in Texas. All 4 city council candidates are Republican. ❌ Fortunately, we have Dems running for school board. 🗳️

Mitch McConnell is retiring after 40 years of working hard to make Kentucky one of the poorest, most under-educated, and unhealthy states in the US.

Looks like I will be on 60 Minutes on Sunday. That is me at the end of the clip.👀 www.youtube.com/watch?v=l1ef...

Today, on World Press Freedom Day, we honour the women and men who dedicate their lives to the truth. They work tirelessly to keep us well-informed. They hold power to account. They speak up. They challenge the status quo. And sometimes they pay the ultimate price for it.

*enormous floofy yawn*

First arresting a judge now threatening to arrest Governor Evers. This is what an authoritarian regime looks like. What is it, put it in the hands of the states or let the federal government run it? America has no kings. He can’t have it both ways when it suits him. #MomSky

The President of the United States is mentally unfit and rapidly getting worse. He should be in prison, under medical supervision. He’s ranting about toilets, he speaks in fragments. His mind is broken. A malicious crook with dementia is president. 25th Amendment, whatever, REMOVE HIM IMMEDIATELY.

Watch this. Then watch it again. Dems with a seat in the senate or state, watch it every morning. EVERY. SINGLE. MORNING. We all 🤬🤬🤬 up the last time. Swift, decisive, prosecution.

If you haven't done this already I strongly encourage you to do so. It takes just a few minutes. Save your data!

Breaking the promise of Social Security is a betrayal. @maxwellfrost.bsky.social

There is literally a clause in the Constitution forbidding such things. 🤦‍♂️ www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

New, from me: I am dorky enough to actually read (ok, skim) budgets, and have never seen anything like Trump’s, which has converted a formal and professional document into a propagandistic screed to justify draconian cuts. Lets take a look. 🧵 donmoynihan.substack.com/p/budgets-as...

The good news here is that Stephen Lynch is absolutely going to get primaried. Stay tuned.

Random Thought: Marco Rubio is incredibly embarrassing and I really hope he ends up in prison.

This is how it's done! I'm so grateful for these judges.

Five former National Weather Service directors have taken the unusual step of signing onto an open letter warning that cuts to the organization by the Trump administration may soon endanger lives.

The Public Broadcasting Act of 1967 created the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. I reread it today; nothing in the law allows a president to defund PBS and NPR. In fact, Congress specifically sought to insulate public media from political pressure.

Crockett: He wants there to be a portion of the budget that goes up to $1 trillion on the defense side. They have failed the very last seven audits. So why would they continue to get raises, which they always do. Yet we're going to hurt the most vulnerable amongst us.

Inspiration for today….
