🚨BREAKING: Arizona’s 7th District is certified — Adelita Grijalva is now U.S. Rep. Mike Johnson’s last excuse is gone. No more lies. No more delays. Swear her in NOW so she can do her job. They can delay, lie, and hide—but the Epstein files aren’t going anywhere. The cover-up is cracking.

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

I support legislation to improve access to medical care in rural Alabama. 90% of women of childbearing age live 30+ mins from care—some drive 70+ miles. Healthcare is a human right. We must invest in rural facilities. Caring for our neighbors should never be negotiable.

As @frankfigliuzzi.bsky.social details, there is no official group known as Antifa (which stands for anti-facism) but Trump's recent memo using vague language authors broad powers to Executive actors authorizing them to investigate and detain ANY American for ANY speech THEY alone pick.

California just banned employers from forcing workers to pay a debt, fee, or penalty to leave their job.

Bosses have increasingly been trapping workers with debts incurred in training and other exploitative fees.

Now that's illegal in the nation's biggest state.

In all likelihood, his mind won't even acknowledge to his waking self that what he is doing is wrong. Unresolved paradox is not a kind mistress. It always externalized entropy, often violently.

They shoved a genocide bill through without consulting democrats. Agreeing to genocide is morally bankrupt. The people can not legally agree to genocide, even when that decision is delegated.

Agreeing to deprive millions of medical care, is agreeing to genocide.

Thank you. We stand with you. The American people want healthcare. We also don’t want the government to be shutdown. And the great majority of us understand that the Democrats did not shut the government down, nor are they refusing to negotiate. Keep standing. Healthcare is a right, not a privilege

I think every single Democrat house member should be in DC - sitting in their House seats- demonstrating their willingness to work for their constituents. And holding looping press conferences in the hallway.

Yes, we indeed have a serious problem.

A tweet by Robert Reich reads:
“The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion. The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion. Read that back. When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.”
