NEWS: A person is in custody after allegedly firing a gunshot at the home of Democratic state Sen. Meg Loughran Cappel, a state lawmaker in Illinois. There are no reported injuries.

They had kids too and the GOP laughed.

Today is the day of the special election to fill the seat of former MN State Rep Melissa Hortman, who was shot by a right-wing extremist.

In other countries they hold people accountable for their involvement with Epstein. In the US, we elect him President. We are so fucked.

Gerrymandering is one of the most significant threats to free and fair elections in the United States. It’s time to end the partisan games and put people before power. Let’s draw the line…quite literally.

Ok SW. don’t tell me we’re taking off when it’s after the time you’re telling me we’re taking off. . . . SMH.

Ok, SW. you can’t say we’re leaving at 5:01 when it’s 5:03 and there’s a tornado warning until 7:00. Just be honest. Smh . . .

I’ve said it before but it’s worth repeating:

This is the nightmare scenario Justice Stevens warned about in his blistering dissent in Citizens United v. FEC.

This puts the lie to the court’s reasoning in Buckley that independent expenditures cannot create corruption or the appearance of it.

💯

The GOP is an opposition party, not a governing party. They. Cannot. Govern.

I’m old enough to remember when driving a Tesla and shopping at Whole Foods were good things. How fast the world changes!

My Open Letter to Elon Musk From Marc | Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” This is my response.

My open letter to Elon Musk.👇

Mr. Musk,

You recently criticized me and another prominent lawyer fighting for the rule of law and democracy in the United States. I am used to being attacked for my work, particularly on the platform you own and dominate. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

What a dipshit. It affects world peace which is in our best interest. He’s just too stupid to understand how politics works. Ugh! Who voted for this loser, really??

Trump on Ukraine: "I want them to give us something for all of the money that we put up and I'm gonna try and get the war settled and I'm try and get all that death ended. We're asking for rare earth and oil, anything we can get. But we feel so stupid. It affects Europe. It doesn't really affect us"

Wow.

More of this please!

The problem with the GOP is that they can’t govern. They are only good as an opposition party. Senate GOP leadership will focus on judges and Trump will focus on executive orders and regulatory actions, but as a party they can’t pass meaningful legislation.

This is exactly the type of independent reporting we need. Legacy media will talk about how “important” his executive orders are without calling them out for what they are. A disaster!

LFG! #knicks! @ny-knicks.bsky.social @benstiller.redhour.com

He doesn’t want to start his presidency defending the crowd size at his inauguration. It’ll make him look weak - which is what weak people do to protect themselves.

It’s exactly why!

Exactly. Wish people would realize this pattern. So frustrating.

Just subscribed to @contrariannews.bsky.social! Tired of the legacy media on bended knee. Excited about this new emergence of fact-based journalism!! Give us more!
