You don't need to amend the Constitution. Just pass a law that requires any PAC who buys ads to buy equal time or "space" immediately following/adjacent to their (dishonest) message for the target to respond. This would diffuse their money advantage and the effectiveness of their negative ads.

I’m sure MAHA will be fine with this. I bet Alex Jones won’t even start talking about gay frogs again. Those antivaxxers won’t even be concerned with mentioning how their food is impure and full of chemicals. They’ll all magically be onboard with teen testicular cancer in the name of Trump.

My daughter and I visited the house we lived in when she was a baby, and she was shocked a 29-year-old Navy guy could afford a nice house in a safe neighborhood.

That wasn’t crazy in 1996 — but today, a nice house is out of reach for so many young people. That has to change.

Losing my faith in justice in the US has been the worst and the most painful lesson of the last few years for me. Now I don't believe we'll ever see it.

All I can hope for is that someday we'll be able to repair the damage, but the vandals will go free.

Just a reminder that we could be living in an America in which Trump and his fellow conspirators are spending the rest of their lives in prison if we had serious politicians and a system that wasn’t hellbent on and designed toward self-destruction.

Republicans aren't going to be able to avoid accountability for the massive health premium increases that are coming. Some people in Connecticut are getting a $25,000 increase. What Republicans have done is immoral - it's going to get people killed.

Right on!

Alabama finally has someone ready to fight for the Alabama instead of letting Tuberville, a non-resident drifter, run his mouth from Florida.

Doug is stepping in with actual roots, actual plans, and an actual stake in the future of the state.

The depositions from the batshit CBP and ICE officials in Chicago have been unsealed. Here's how Russ Hott denied actually knowing anything about one of the weirder claims they made: that a protestor had ripped someone's beard off.

legacy.www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...
Q Thank you. You say that -- in your 3 declaration that "There was an incidence where 4 somebody was pulling the face mask and personally" 5 -- "and forcefully ripping off an officer's beard." 6 Do you see that? 7 A Yes. 8 Q What does that mean? 9 A Well, there was an officer that was 10 wearing a gas mask and a protestor had ripped the 11 gas mask off. This officer had a large beard. They 12 grabbed it and forcefully ripped the beard out of 13 his chin. 14 Q His beard was ripped off of his face? 15 A Yes, a good portion of it. 16 Q Okay. Did you take any pictures of it? 17 A I did not. 18 Q Did somebody else? 19 A I'm not aware. 20 Q How do you know that this happened? 21 A From the officer reporting it. 22 Q Okay. Who is he? A I don't recall the officer's name. 2 Q Was it somebody that you were familiar 3 with before you began work on Midway Blitz? 4 A No. 5 Q Do you know whether a report was written 6 about this incident? 7 A I don't know that. 8 Q Do you know whether or not the person who 9 allegedly ripped off an officer's beard was charged 10 with a crime? 11 A I don't know that specifically.

Trump’s clown act is wearing thin just like American’s shrinking wages & diminished purchasing power! This is Trump/GOP’s clanker of an economy that hinges on a volatile AI bubble! Most of what used to be affordable on a middle class income is lost! AI is already taking away jobs across the nation!

Here's how Greg Bovino denies tackling Scott Blackburn, while watching a video showing him tacking Scott Blackburn.

A 5-question exchange in which Greg Bovino is asked if he sees an older gentleman, "expressing his disagreement with [Bovino's] presence in Chicago [who] doesn't like the fact that you are instructing him to move down, right?" Bovino responds, no, "That individual is failing to follow instructions to vacate the area." The follow-on of earlier exchange. Bovino is asked, "then you got over the barrier, tackled this man to the ground, and arrested him, right? No. Did you not tackle him? No.

It’s darkly funny how a decade of attacking “safe spaces” in favor of some sort of social Darwinist fantasy where the strong devour the weak has consistently progressed to the vigorous defense of special enclaves for masculinity.

It's easy to miss because this piece doesn's mention the word trans or transgender at all, but anyone who understands how the professional transphobia class messages, this is the klaxon call of transphobia.
The century-old partnership between the U.S. military and Scouting could be coming to an end. U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning for the military to sever all ties with Scouting America, saying the group once known as the Boy Scouts is no longer a meritocracy and has become an organization designed to "attack boy-friendly spaces," according to documents reviewed by NPR. In a draft memo to Congress, which sources shared with NPR but which has not yet been sent, Hegseth criticizes Scouting for being "genderless" and for promoting diversity, equity and inclusion.
