I’ll say it again…How fucked is it that Rand Fucking Paul is the GOP voice of reason in this moment?
It’s not even a hard concept to grasp & these attempts to manipulate voting districts in a way to fabricate a single party system flies in the face of the fundamental argument that spawned the US.

Rand Paul on mid-decade redistricting: "I think it's gonna lead to more civic tension & possibly more violence in our country. Think about it: if 35% of Texas is solidly Democrat & they have 0 representation, how does that make Democrats feel? I think it makes them feel they're not represented"

What Are We Doing to Our Children?
We taught kids to read, write, and dream; then trained them to hide, barricade, and bleed quietly while adults chose guns, cowardice, and silence over their future.

41 minutes of watching two shipwrecked men trying to flip a boat and signaling for surrender/help before firing on them again reminds me of the 9.5 minutes Derek Chauvin knelt on George Floyd’s neck, in that it’s an agonizingly long time to be killing helpless people who clearly posed no threat.

I know most of the focus is on RFK Jr.'s weird horny texts, but the news that he used to spam Bill Nye with anti-vax weirdness and Bill was like, "Dude, you're you're confusing correlation for causation" is the only RFK text-message news I will ever need.

The SecDef would be wise to read the Constitution before posting anti-constitutional attacks on Senator Mark Kelly.

Then she died of preeclampsia.

TFW you color yourself a “true American” but fail make any attempt to verify your “trusted source”, who turns out to have been the adversary all along and you have taken active part in spreading their talking points.
I see a lot of Paidchecks on X didn’t realize that a whole lot of people on social media lie about their location to grift off the naïveté of the rage-addled American right.
Turns out this problem is real and it’s a thing those of us who worked on “disinformation” pointed out.

It is too easy to fall victim of misinformation around the federal funding of social programs.
How many rural areas experience an unseen economic boost from SNAP injections and yet consistently vote against the very programs subsidizing their crops/local businesses?
Def heard no mention as a kid.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.

At some point, incompetence and deliberate indifference to the law reaches a point where it is indistinguishable from deliberate misconduct. This is why you don’t hand a complex matter to someone who has never presented to a grand jury before.
A federal judge ORDERS the disclosure of James Comey's grand jury minutes to the defense, citing a "disturbing pattern pattern of profound investigative missteps" and casting doubt on Lindsey Halligan's declaration about the gap in the record.

Yikes! Being called out by a judge for making false statements of the law in a high profile case is not a good look.
It’s almost as though Halligan (the DOJ attorney put on this case) had, like, no prior litigation experience.
