truth, the Toronto City Connect is among the absolute worst

Also, while the Yankees are THE STANDARD when it comes to uniforms, the Toronto uniforms are hands-down THE BEST in the league

@neeratanden.bsky.social calls out Republicans: It is the opposite of common sense to RAISE prices in the middle of a cost of living crisis.

@neeratanden.bsky.social fact-checks the Republican argument that Democrats' plan gives health care subsidies to "illegal aliens."

Spoiler alert: It's a huge lie.

From the politics community on Reddit: I’m Tom Moore, senior fellow for democracy policy at the Center for American Progress. I’ve figured out a way to break Citizens United. I kid you not. It's a BFD... Explore this post and more from the politics community

I would like a pitcher named Bieber to knock the Yankees outta the Post Season.

I have my non-socialmedia-ing colleague SG to thank for push and prodding my thinking to get from "reporting" to "triggers" -- he's a genius (but will deny it).

If this panel makes it through the gauntlet, I'm looking for 1 or 2 other nonprofiteers to speak on this topic, too.

Shoutout to benchilders.bsky.social who got me off my bottom to make this submission happen and one of his partners Eric Rubin (not on BSKY) who I'll be presenting with.

OH HAI... I forgot to promote my NTEN panel for voting and I'm hoping you'll vote for it today 🤷‍♂️:

Small point about the coverage of Hegseth’s stupid convening: Trump has not “renamed” the Department of Defense something else. He *calls* it that.

If I started calling the president “Adolf,” one would not say that I had “renamed him Adolf.” He has no more authority to rename DOD than I do him.

Trump is spinning all kinds of lies to distract you from the fact that he's making billionaires richer at the expense of the American people.

76 percent of Americans say Trump does not deserve the Nobel Peace Prize Most Americans also say former president Barack Obama did not deserve to win the prize in 2009.

As President Donald Trump continues his campaign to win a Nobel Peace Prize, Americans are broadly skeptical.

A Washington Post-Ipsos poll finds 76 percent of Americans say he doesn’t deserve to win it.

Family separation is back under Trump.

Just CNN alone found more than 100 American children left stranded after ICE took their parents. Here’s just one story…

Measles outbreak hits new part of Utah; people may have been exposed at fast food chain Measles cases continue to spread in Utah, with a new case reported in northern Utah.

Utah Department of Health and Human Services officials say people may have been exposed to measles at a Chick-fil-A in Cache County.

Think dark money in politics is unstoppable? Think again. CAP's @thmoore.bsky.social explains how states have the power to make Citizens United irrelevant: www.americanprogress.org/article/the-...

And also, thank you to Mayor Brandon Scott (who I can’t find on BlueSky to tag) for your positive, locally driven vision for what Baltimore needs and can be.

Running through West Baltimore this morning (it’s beautiful out right now btw) and seeing so many little municipal construction and improvement projects and personal-scale ones, too. Curbs, playgrounds, houses, drains. I’m gonna hold on to that.

Intimidating companies and demanding they pay millions of dollars to avoid government retaliation is not normal. We shouldn’t accept the office of the presidency being leveraged as a weapon against the media. @schiff.senate.gov explains:

@schiff.senate.gov is right. What we’re seeing take place across the country–families ripped apart, communities divided, racial profiling greenlit by judges–is not who we should strive to be as a nation.

"New Golden Age" for whom?

Delighted that USA Today published my opinion piece today on @americanprogress.bsky.social's plan to undo Citizens United through state corporation laws.

Do they realize that just because they delete it doesn't mean it disappears?
