Seeing an awful lot of people sick with Covid right now.

Many saying β€œCovid is back”.

It never left. That’s why some of us are still advocating for mitigations.

Every infection is a dice roll with disability.

Wear a mask. Clean the air. Stay home when sick.

Sorry, Matthew. Not fun.

And totally unacceptable that the decision-makers literally set up #Novavax to fail in Canada.

If you don’t tell people it exists and you don’t explain its benefits, of COURSE there will be low uptake!

This attitude had me making my disabilities and totally contributed to the massive fatigue crashes I've experienced during long COVID. I've spent the past 18 months learning new behaviors but the internalized abelism is strong.

F.B.I. Is Asked to Arrest Texas Democrats in Battle Over House Seats

It’s weasel wording to use the passive voice here: Sen. Cornyn is the one who asked, and that’s an important part of the story.

'Living in a fantasy world': Critics pounce as Trump TV interview goes off the rails U.S. President Donald Trump gave a lengthy interview to CNBC on Tuesday and critics quickly pounced on the president for telling a large number of false claims on topics ranging from monthly jobs numb...

In a CNBC interview, Trump made false claims on jobs, gas prices, and trade. Critics called his statements β€œcompletely backwards” and β€œfantasy.” He also faced backlash for racist remarks about immigrant labor in agriculture.

Burgundy graphic with a quote that reads "Why would Arkansas pass an obviously unconstitutional law? Most likely because the State is part of a coordinated strategy among several states to inject Christian religious doctrine into public-school classrooms." The quote is attributed to "Judge Timothy Brooks, Ruling that an Arkansas law requiring the Ten Commandments in public schools is unconstitutional"

Arkansas' law requiring the Ten Commandments in public schools is unconstitutional β€” and a federal court agrees.

Attorneys for Jeffrey Epstein survivors say history is repeating itself with Trump's DOJ "sidelining them from critical decisions."

It suggests that "victims are, at best, an afterthought to the current administration."

California is moving closer to a special election on redistrictingβ€”firing back at Texas Republicans’ gerrymandering power grab.

California Republicans are against it. They’re trying to block it while their party rigs maps in red states.

The plan is a trigger-based redraw…

TEXAS IS JUST STEP ONE

Trump plans to take redistricting fights nationwideβ€”and now he’s gaslighting, claiming blue states gerrymander more than red ones.

FACT: House Dems are on record backing a national ban on gerrymandering. Republicans blocked it.

Democrats should fight fire with a blowtorch.

The funniest part about this whole thing is that Republicans would never vote for a bill to ban gerrymandering nationwide

Democrats tried, and Republicans said no because they never expected US to play by their rules

That era is over

Support SB 627, the No Secret Police Act Text SIGN PPQELB to 50409 β€” Greetings. I urge you to support SB 627, the No Secret Police Act, which would require law enforcement to display identifying info and not wear masks. This is important for multiple reasons: 1. So that ICE agents have to be accountable for their actions 2. So that people know whether they are witnessing police action or ICE action 3. To prevent random thugs from pretending to be ICE and abducting people. Many thanks.

Federal Prisons Are Restraining People for Weeks on End, Investigation Reveals The Bureau of Prisons has failed to adequately document the use of restraints, despite their potentially deadly use.

A new report exposes how federal prisons commonly restrain incarcerated people by both their wrists and ankles for weeks at a time, which has proven to be deadly.

No one should be subject to this kind of abuse.
