Accommodations in higher education were supposed to help disabled Americans access the same opportunities as their nondisabled peers, @rosehorowitch.bsky.social reports. How did they become another way for wealthy students to gain an advantage?

Despite @aftynbehn.bsky.social generating real excitement with an authentic progressive anti-corruption message and getting closer than anyone in #TN7, *experts* are already dropping predictable “a centrist would’ve done better” takes - as though that hasn’t been tried here many times.

Pro Trump Oligarchs own most MSM orgs, so one gaffe by Biden was 24/7 news . An endless pile of gaffes, criminality, stupidity, lies, & dementia-addled rantings is treated as a minor slip. The Press as a Firewall against corruption & criminalization of the Presidency no longer exists.

JUST IN: Democrats have flipped the mayor's office in Roswell, Georgia, in tonight's runoff.
GOP Mayor Kurt Wilson conceded earlier tonight to Mary Robichaux, the Dem challenging him.
(This is a city in the Atlanta suburbs, the 9th most populous city in Georgia.)

If Texas congressional races see the same 13-point swing that #TN07 did, Democrats would likely flip #TX28, #TX34,#TX35, and #TX23. #TX15, #TX09, #TX24,#TX32, #TX23 would all be tight races.

A man has become the 7th person to be left HIV-free after receiving a stem cell transplant to treat blood cancer. He’s also the second of the 7 who received stem cells that were not actually resistant to the virus, strengthening the case that HIV-resistant cells may not be necessary for an HIV cure.

TN07 is a story about gerrymandering: the GOP cracked Nashville into 3 districts when it redrew the 2022 map, destroying the Dem seat there.
Fast-forward: a section of Nashville, which just 5 years ago had a Dem representative, is now voting Dem by huge margins but it's been designed to not matter.

This is truly awful. I have served in the university media board for 3 years and saw how brilliant and committed the student editors of these magazines were to quality and integrity. This is such a loss for the university community at large. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/02/u...

In a historically red state and a district heavily gerrymandered by the GOP, with over $1,000,000 in PAC cash spent by MAGA Inc, their candidate won by only a few more than 16,000 votes. Trump broke out his all caps bullshit phone to brag about how BIG this win was, but it was weak ass as they come.
