The U.S. Must Not Push Ukraine Into an Unjust, Unstable Peace
It would be a moral betrayal and a strategic blunder.

Ayo @npr.org did y’all ever apologize for this? 🤔

Talk about aging terribly. Yeesh.

Maybe it’s at least time do a little introspection? www.npr.org/2024/08/25/g...

What the hell: The US accidentally invaded Mexico on Monday, storming a beach and planting DoD “restricted area” signs claiming the land for “the commander,” and triggered a standoff with armed Mexican security forces, all because Trump’s government can’t even identify a border on a map. 🧵 1/

Drug companies have hired over 500 lobbyists this year to gut the Inflation Reduction Act's drug price negotiation provisions.

They outnumber public interest advocates more than 20 to 1.

We must get money out of politics and end Big Pharma's deadly greed once and for all.

That's my POS Senator from SC looking out only for himself again, NOT the people of SC.
As usual.
Sen. Lindsey Graham, a South Carolina Republican, blocked a Democrat-led effort to approve a House-passed measure to repeal a controversial provision that allows senators to sue for $500,000 if federal investigators search their phone records without their knowledge.

The eyes of the American people seem to be working just fine and they see health care costs rising when they get their bills each month. They know which party holds a trifecta.

Hours after Border Patrol swept through Charlotte, protesters filled uptown with courage, not fear. They marched peacefully, stood united, and refused to be intimidated.
Charlotte showed up.
And it showed strength.💪

Piggy has signed off on the release of the Epstein files.

There is a loophole in the law that lets the DOJ withhold anything they deem is part of an active investigation.

It’s precisely what Piggy is counting on.

Underrated point in the recent movement on Epstein files is that House Oversight Ranking Member Robert Garcia is Good
Rep. Garcia: If the AG wants to use her sham investigation in the Southern District of New York to withhold evidence and documents, she can't do the same for our subpoena. She is still legally obligated to produce every single document she has in her possession to the Oversight Committee

I’m probably late on this, but here’s Larry Summers telling his Harvard students he acknowledges his connection with Epstein, and wants to fulfill his teaching obligations if the students “will let him.”

So now consent matters?

My legal team will be in federal court in North Carolina today fighting against the state's unconstitutional redrawn congressional map. Before you listen to those in the GOP who say we can't win, ask Texas how that worked out for them.

Breaking on MS NOW:

The full grand jury never reviewed the indictment it handed up against Comey.

Prosecutors said, instead of presenting a new indictment after the grand jury declined to approve one of the counts, Halligan simply brought an altered version for the grand jury's foreperson to sign.
