Chris Murphy: "This is a country that's falling apart because Trump is in the middle of an authoritarian takeover. We're not on the verge of an authoritarian takeover. We're in the middle of it ... I have no moral obligation to vote for a budget that literally funds the destruction of our democracy"

Sydney Reid acquitted.

This was a case where someone filming was assaulted, and then arrested and charged with felony assault.

The grand jury no billed that, so they took her to trial on a misdemeanor charge. There were a bunch of discovery problems.

And now this.

Kudos to the FPDS!

A verdict form for Sydney Lori Reid. She was found Not Guilty.

I wrote about McKinsey's latest fossil fuel projections going up. Because McKinsey.

Fossil Fuel Boosters Will Keep Trying to Speak Their Version of the Future Into Existence

The lemonade stand owner releasing a report on the increasing demand for lemonade is, at best, wishful thinking, and at worst, active market manipulation.

I think unfortunately in the near future, mostly white folks will be voting because the VRA will be gone

How will we deal with that? I agree that pretending they were not being complete clueless jerks isn’t the answer but berating them isn’t in our best interest either

“Airing”? Ok let’s air them, address them head on. No mealy mouthing. The Dems take sooooo long sometimes to address stuff like this directly and it is used as an achilles heel over and over. Went through that with gay marriage until someone just acted in VT and CA.
