MUST SEE: Congresswoman Schrier nails conspiracy theorist and unfortunate HHS Secretary, RFK Jr., on the value of vaccines—and it’s glorious.

Schrier also happens to be the first pediatrician in Congress.

Pay attention: Senate Republicans are trying to ram through extreme anti-abortion judges right under our noses.

Their goal? A nationwide abortion ban.

I’ll keep fighting back against nominees that want to take away our freedoms.

I read that ticktock was backed by dumpsterdonors, I deleted my account I don't care if it gets banned. I am also boycotting walmart and any other store that doesn't support diversity 🙄

To anyone freaking out about the TikTok ban, just chill, a vile RWNJ billionaire is your strongest ally.
Jeff Yass has a $40B stake in Bytedance
Yass donated $86M to Trump’s 2024 campaign

SCOTUS will overturn the ban.

Wonder if news editors are going to realize people knew about an actual coup an hour-plus earlier on bluesky than twitter. Hearing a lot of that rumbling from old friends still in the legacy content mines today.

"Trump won the crucial blue wall states... by 231,000 votes? So if just 116,000 voters across those three swing states – or 0.7% of the total – had switched from Trump to Harris, it is the vice-president who would have won the electoral college … and the presidency" - me for the Guardian:

In 2024, we have a new post-election lie – Trump didn’t just win, Republicans say, but he won big. He won a landslide. That’s false

We're just about done counting but Trump's national vote lead fell a bit more today and is now a touch below 1.5% points in both the Cook tracker and the NYT page, although both round up to 1.5. Oh and Trump is at either 49.9% or 49.8.
