Everyone in this administration is calling this a war except the people who are actually required and responsible to declare war (Congress).

If Congress called it a war.... they'd actually have to find their spines, take a stand and be counted as either for or against this war.

Virginia Lawmakers Should Pass Citizens United Trigger Law Challenging the Supreme Court’s mistaken Citizens United ruling will help spur legal change and curb the influence of big money in state politics.

Trigger laws enabled some states to ban abortion the second the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. Now Virginia is considering one that would limit political spending if the Court ever overturns Citizen United. bit.ly/3OYOEOV

PETITION: Don't Let the Federal Government Regulate Your Reading Not one country's freedom and liberty has ever been increased by banning books.

The Federal Book Ban bill uses funding threats to pressure schools to remove books.

Federal control over local policy - and federal control of reading, writing, and publishing - is unacceptable.

Sign the petition to stop it. action.everylibrary.org/hr_7661 via @everylibrary.bsky.social

Single Daily Tablet Shows Powerful Results for People With Drug-Resistant HIV A large international clinical trial has unveiled a promising new option for people living with highly treatment-resistant HIV.

A development such as this has been a goal for HIV researchers for decades. It is important because people who are faced with difficult treatment regimens are less likely to be compliant.

I keep thinking about voter intimidation. People may not want to go to a dropbox or fear they need a passport, so they won't vote at all. I feel like we need to start training for ballot collection or make Know Your Rights cards, election style.

And don't come at me w/ "midterms aren't happening".

Anyone find it interesting that not so many weeks ago, President Orange Shits Himself was implying that NATO Allies that supported the US in Afghanistan “weren’t on the front lines” is now crying that we aren’t running to his aid in yet another US illegitimate war? 🤔 Anyone?

At least 200 attack UAVs were used. The strike damaged five warships in the port.

One of them sustained significant damage; this is likely the minesweeper Valentin Pikul (military unit 90921, Novorossiysk).

Raskin: Based on what you know today, were Renee Good and Alex Pretti domestic terrorists?

Noem: What happened was an absolute tragedy.

Raskin: Were they domestic terrorists?

Noem: My condolences to their families

Raskin: You lied about them.

Rough calcs...

The vessel plus cargo was likely valued at as much as $300,000,000

China unlikely to have paids for the cargo, so total loss to Russia.

Trump says U.S. Navy may escort tankers through Strait of Hormuz if necessary President Donald Trump announced in a post on Truth Social that the U.S.

So, why would the US Navy need to escort tankers through the Strait of Hormuz, if (as the orange shitgibbon claimed last night) the entire Iranian navy and air force have been destroyed?
