I know one thing, before it's over people are going to get tired of me screaming about how if more of us would take advantage of early voting, a lot of what the GOP does to suppress votes on voting day wouldn't work.

U.S. sub sinks Iranian warship off Sri Lanka, killing 87 and expanding war zone A U.S. submarine sank an Iranian warship off the southern coast of Sri Lanka, killing dozens of sailors and dramatically widening Washington's pursuit of the Iranian navy.

A US submarine sinking a lonely, dinky Iranian surface ship an ocean away from the theater of the main conflictβ€”and 9000
miles from North Americaβ€”makes it pretty clear the US is fighting a general war, without the declaration required by the Constitution. www.reuters.com/world/asia-p...

Quit ChatGPT: right now! Your subscription is bankrolling authoritarianism | Rutger Bregman As a historian, I’ve studied the major consumer boycotts of history. We can take down ChatGPT and send a powerful signal to Silicon Valley, says author and historian Rutger Bregman

"The most effective consumer boycotts in history share two qualities: they are narrow and they are easy," writes @rutgerbregman.com

While the McDonald’s CEO gets roasted for his awkward burger taste test...

McDonald’s is among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

And McDonald's CEO recently raked in $18.2M β€” over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

That should leave a bad taste in your mouth.

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.

Hope everyone will read this brilliant piece from @katherineeban.bsky.social on Casey Means.

Surgeon generals usually represent the very best of the medical community. Means isn’t even a part of it, by her own choosing.

This article by Eliza Orlins lays out republicans' dirty deeds that suppressed Dem votes in key parts of TX. Paxton, on the ballot himself, used his position as AG to swoop in and get the TX Sup. Court to override a lower court emergency ruling. Reprehensible.

LIEU: Did Amalia commit a crime?

NOEM: She did not. She's with her family

LIEU: The reason she's with her family is because she almost died in ICE detention until folks brought a lawsuit forcing her release

Republican presidents in my lifetime except for Eisenhower crash the economy and start wars. Note Trump's actions start on a weekend. Why? I think it's so stock market trades can be made before the markets open on Monday. Remember if it doesn't make sense there's big money behind it somewhere.

Is it just me or does destroying police stations and basically all government infrastructure leave Iran pretty vulnerable to extremist groups in the region to exert even more influence in the country? Take out "bad guys" and very often there are worse guys ready to step into the void.

Trump is turning America into a 3rd world country. Our only strength is our voracious spending and military.
But hey, what did you expect? You allowed a seditious convicted felon, failed businessman to be YOUR president!

People who believe in an imminent Rapture/Armageddon don't have anything invested in what happens to you here on Earth. You are irrelevant to them and will be treated accordingly.

Minnesota is mourning the loss of Sergeant First Class Nicole M. Amor of White Bear Lake who was killed in Kuwait on Sunday.

She answered the call to serve and gave her life in service to our state and nation. Minnesotans are wrapping our arms around her loved ones.
