I’m sure it’s merely a coincidence that the guy who bankrupted casinos is now responsible for the first, second, and third longest government shutdowns in our country’s history.

If you want to understand how truly ignorant and absent the British media is on Russian interference, read on.

A Kremlin spy scandal, a trove of bikini shots....and still nothing but tumbleweed.

People forget that when the survivors were fighting for a Royal Commission into State Care under John Key's government, Anne Tolley the then Nats MSD minister said there would never be a commission and the only reason we have it at all is that Jacinda Ardern formally launched it in 2018 #NZPol

While I'm not really surprised this increasingly Christofascist government is applying their 'worthiness test' to acknowledged victims of state abuse, I am really disgusted. #nzpol

A grubby, grotty attempt to shirk responsibility for decades of horror

OPINION: The Government’s move to make it harder for some victims of abuse in state care to access compensation is disgusting.

State Supreme Court elections are *super* important for the rest of our democracy. Don't sleep on them.

Taniel @taniel.bsky.social · 5h

If Dems win the Supreme Court races in Pennsylvania in 9 days, it’s extremely likely the GOP can’t get a majority on that court until 2029.

The GOP really wants to have this majority during the 2028 presidential race.

Can’t put the stakes any more clearly than that. boltsmag.org/pennsylvania...

Inside the Clunky Elections to Control Pennsylvania's Supreme Court - Bolts

The GOP is making an expensive push to end Democrats’ majority on a court at the center of election lawsuits, sparking a fledging campaign season with little precedent or template.

“The government’s love for teachers, doctors and nurses and disdain for the unions is slightly head-scratching given the unions are almost entirely made of teachers, doctors, and nurses.”

One of my favourite things is when a government narrative is challenged with both facts and blistering sarcasm.

Unions are made of workers

The government’s disdain for unions and love for teachers, doctors and nurses is slightly confusing given unions are made up of teachers, doctors and nurses.

Meiselas: Scott Perry says that Democrats join the military just so they can run for office — and that Democrats hate the military.

Deluzio: Just an unbelievable load of bullshit. I’d dare him to go say that in front of the Democrats in his district who are veterans — there are thousands of them.

New in PN: @gelliottmorris.com on Trump's dire polling

"Trump has the unique problem that he started off a lot lower than other presidents. So as he loses ground — and he has lost ground at about the normal clip — he just continues to be worse and worse than every other president before him."

I haven’t seen anyone talk about how Jane Doe - an Epstein survivor - just sued the Bank of New York Mellon for funding Epstein and failing to file a Suspicious Activity Report. A Mellon heir is the one who gave $130M to pay the troops. Seems bribey to me.
