Bernie Moreno still not saying anything because he’s a gutless sack of shit.
Trump would rather pull Blanche’s nomination for AG than allow him to commit in writing that Trump’s IRS deal is off. The immunity Blanche granted to Trump from IRS audits is a windfall that some experts estimate is worth $100 million in taxpayer funds for Trump. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/30/u...
A third of the active players in the league are LGBTQ. This is very clearly a call to purge queer Black women from the league. It's absolutely disgusting.
Kevin Kiley, who has somewhere around a 98% Trump voting record and was one of the loudest most obnoxious right wing voices in the state legislature, is running as an INDEPENDANT with the support of *wait for it* JOE FUCKING MANCHIN!!!

Robert ReichSix congressmen bought between $83,000 to $245,000 in SpaceX stock just before its IPO: -Jared Moskowitz -Gil Cisneros -Dan Meuser -John McGuire -William Timmons -John James Five serve on committees whose work impacts SpaceX's business. We must ban members of Congress from trading stock.
1. In the aftermath of forcing the Ohio Progressive Caucus to delete criticism of Amy Acton for calling trans girls "boys," progressives were promised a meeting with Acton. Now, we have learned she didn't show up, and kicked trans people out of the meeting. Subscribe to support our journalism.
🚨BREAKING: Pennsylvania’s top election official, a Republican, rebuffed the Trump administration’s claim that nearly 15,000 noncitizens could be registered to vote in the commonwealth, demanding it explain how that estimate was calculated. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
In 2016, North Carolina banned trans people from bathrooms and the institutional outcry and public outrage was so enormous NC backtracked in fear. Now every single day another institution turns against trans people to deafening public silence. Today it was the WNBA.
Danielle Froom 🏳️🌈Hundreds of sports leagues and hospitals and universities have banned trans people and the national response is... "oh well". The Trump regime is openly saying they're going to eliminate us and the country just... collectively shrugs.
It's noteworthy that the sticking point in getting Todd Blanche confirmed as AG involves financial corruption rather than Blanche refusing to release files about the sex trafficking of children by Trump's former friend. To Republicans, money is always more important than the welfare of children.
BREAKING: Ninth Circuit agrees with five other circuits (2, 6, 7. 10, and 11) that the DHS can't detain immigrants who've been here for years without a bond hearing. Fifth and 8th said have at it. cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/op...
cdn.ca9.uscourts.govthere is no good faith anti-trans sports lobby and never has been it’s been a cynical wedge issue from day one for a group of people looking to replace gay marriage as a cultural weapon none of them have ever cared about women, women’s sports, or even sports

What's even worse about this is that the Knicks owner, James Dolan, was caught specifically tracking trans women for years, including when they went to the bathroom. No suspension there but speaking out against transphobia nets you a 5 game suspension. www.them.us/story/jim-do...
Seattle Storm co-owner suspended for 5 home games. The WNBA has chosen a side. Now, transphobic protesters have an incentive to goad players, team staff, and fans into reacting to get them kicked out or suspended. sports.yahoo.com/wnba/article...
The number of Black players who will be accused of being trans is about to skyrocket.

As Trump’s aides leak his frustrations on Iran and his push to jail James Comey flounders, a legal observer explains how Trump is confronting the limits of his powers on many fronts as once. trib.al/Z8PecnZ
Federal agents’ text messages and depositions came to light this week via the ACLU’s request for a preliminary junction.
The U.S. eliminated #measles a quarter century ago, but now unvaccinated children are bringing measles into our community from outbreaks in other parts of our country thanks to RFK Jr. Six cases in our region already this year. #Ivax2protect www.placer.ca.gov/10712/UPDATE...

An additional fourth case is suspected, also a family member. They are...www.placer.ca.govRobert ReichI'm old enough to remember when polio put my friends into iron lungs. We dutifully lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives. What RFK Jr. is doing to public health in America is a disgrace.
Running out of body bags, using forklifts to transfer corpses into makeshift morgues, a mortician conducting 200 funerals in a month when he usually does 30, crematories running at double capacity… And these senators just want to memory-hole it all www.nytimes.com/2020/04/30/n...
It's genuinely insane that it's a mainstream belief that the problem with COVID was that we did *too much* to address it.
