Just saying, but when people are trying to do everything they can to prevent you from voting, that’s when you absolutely need to vote.

Ready to make this the biggest midterm turnout in history?

I read the book a few years ago. Loved it! I can’t wait to see this movie.

And many rural voters don’t realize how this will affect them…

We love our Ford Mustang Mach-e. Have had it for three years now. Not as affordable as the Ioniq 5 but not as expensive as the BMW either.

Skis? Check. Poles? Check. Knitting needles? Naturally A number of Olympic athletes have turned to knitting during the heat of the Games, including Ben Ogden, who this week became the most decorated American male Olympic cross-country skier.

NEW: As expected, SCOTUS invalidates tariffs. Billionaires don’t like it when you mess with the markets. Alito, Thomas, and Kavanaugh dissent. Importers will now get refunds on costs they’ve already passed on to us, making the rich even richer.

Your link is not the same as the account in the post. @the-downballot.com is the right one.

Trump has suffered major losses recently β€” in both federal courts and the court of public opinion.

It's why he lashes out at the media, spreads lies, attacks his political enemies, and tries to rig elections.

These are the actions of a tyrant with his back against the wall.

Be warned.

I thought so as I saw the same photo on FB. I didn't read your post right. But yeah, I agree Diane is doing great.

If either of you are in OR I’m happy to help out sometime. I’ve been knitting for a couple of years now and have made cardigans, sweaters, hats, and shawls.

That looks good! I like to use what is called a cable cast on but long tail is good when you are just starting out and are only doing a small row of stitches.

#GoodNews: Portland is upholding its land-use violation against the South Macadam ICE facility.
The city found detainees were held overnight
or beyond the 12-hour limit at least 25 times.
ICE must fix it by March 16β€”or face monthly fines and a lien.
Accountability matters.

Reminder that Trump and Republicans are pouring billions of your tax dollars into ICE raids and crackdowns, while gutting Medicaid and SNAP and driving up health care costs.

Families are get crushed by rent, groceries, prescriptions. They chose fear and cruelty while working people pay the price.

What the Democrats Need to Do Now To win back working-class voters, they need to signal more clearly to working people that they are on their side. That means picking fights on their behalf with the bad actors who are making their liv...

"One thing [Democrats] still don’t do well is play offenseβ€”create preemptive lines of attack against Trump and the Republicans that put them on the defensive."

Great @mjtoma.bsky.social dive into intra-party debates over tactics and ideology, covering lots of ground:

Goldman: You said references to ICE as secret police encourages threats. The problem is you have it backwards sir. People are making valid observations about your tactics which are outright fascist. If you don’t want to be called a fascist regime, stop acting like one.

Good.

Hiding the names of people asking for 10 year old girls is fucking disgusting.

Yesterday at the ICE detention facility I met Maria, an amazing woman who was going to the store when armed and masked ICE agents surrounded her car, broke her window, dragged her out, and locked her up even though she has absolutely no criminal record.
