A remarkable paper highlighting a key difference between governance by Republicans and governance by Democrats: Republicans legislate to the advantage of white people, and disadvantage of people of color. Democrats don’t.

On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️🌈

What we need is Administrative Non-compliance. Our people in public service HAVE TO SAY NO to unconstitutional and illegal orders.

I agree.
Not only should the Dems refuse to cave on the shutdown; they should announce they won’t vote for a budget until: (a) the military is withdrawn from every American city where it’s been deployed; (b) the budget forbids the use of any funds for that purpose; AND (c) the healthcare demand already made.

California has walked the walk on independent redistricting at the state level for 15 years.
But we cannot unilaterally disarm while other states throw out the rules to gain power.
With one vote, Californians can punch back and also demand nationwide independent redistricting.

Tariffs are taxes.
$80B in tariffs = $80B cost to US consumers, or $80B in lost revenue to US importers. Importers will pass on the cost, or suffer large margin reductions or even losses. Publicly owned companies will take a hit to their stock price if they absorb the loss. Fat chance of that.

When you can cheat to win minority rule, you don’t have to respect opposing points of view. In fact, cheating already shows you don’t.

Why has Putin’s reaction been so muted?
“Oil prices are surging in response to the U.S. airstrikes. Brent crude had already climbed 18% and prices could soar to $130 per barrel, pushing U.S. inflation close to 6% by year’s end.”—Copilot
Win-win for Putin economically.
Diplomatically, just as bad.

This weekend, Canada will welcome Prime Minister Keir Starmer to Ottawa.
The ties between Canada and the United Kingdom are historic and enduring. Prime Minister Starmer’s visit will further strengthen them — as we build on the partnership that keeps our nations safe and our economies strong.
