Posing for a picture on the genocide field trip certainly was a choice.

Keep an eye on @ethanformd.com.

He has soft-launched a challenge.

U.S. politician makes suspicious biotech stock bet Representative McClain Delaney purchased struggling biotech stock TECH on two occasions, while sitting on a relevant congressional committee.

Rep. April Delaney isn’t in politics to help make the lives of people in Maryland’s 6th District betterβ€” she’s in politics so she can continue to line her deep pockets while the GOP hacks our country to death.

As always, Marylanders deserve so much more from their elected leaders.

Steny Hoyer hasn't held regular town halls here in Maryland for years. His district office isn't even in our district. So naturally, he is in Israel this week meeting with the criminal Netanyahu government.

many of Nixon's underlings went on to have long careers of influence within the party and politics generally and the big lessons they learned from Watergate were "don't get caught, if you do get caught don't resign, and use your power to strip anyone else of the ability to hold you accountable"

So it turns out that Cuomo's slam at Mamdani's lodgings wasn't just a know-nothing misrepresentation of homelessness, rent control, and rent stabilization, it was also a stealth boosting of the landlord lobby's coming messaging on why rent stabilization should be gutted.

Unearthed footage shows Trump DOJ official calling law enforcement officers "disgusting" and urging fellow rioters to "kill them."

Trump pushing 'unusual' GOP move over worries he 'is going to get impeached': conservative The White House is driving the showdown between Texas Democrats and Republicans over a gerrymandering scheme to protect President Donald Trump from getting impeached for a third time, according to a r...

In case it wasn't obvious, Trump is doing all this gerrymandering nonsense because he's absolutely terrified of impeachment.

Put pressure on Congress to honor their oath of office, defend the Constitution, and impeach him now. Democracy can't wait for midterms.

Breaking 🚨: Rep. April Delaney sold $15K of IDEXX Laboratories for a 42% gain

We originally flagged this trade because just two days after her buy, a biotech bill was referred to two committees she sits on

$IDXX develops biotech products for farms & agriculture

Nice

Big chunks of the Constitution are missing from the official site. Notably, habeas. Orwell would think this is a bit too on the nose.

Wtf

A month ago, Rep. Delaney bought $IDXX

IDEXX Labs makes biotech products for farms & agriculture

The day she bought, the "National Biotech Initiative Act of 2025" was introduced

The bill was referred to the Committee on Agriculture

(Delaney sits on this committee)

She's +38% since the buy

TBH getting an endorsement from Silicon Valley’s personal rep is sort of a red flag.

By the way, there already is an 8-0 Maryland map from 2022. It was thrown out in court, but fortunately our House Majority Leader, David Moon, has already introduced legislation to help address this.

The entire MAGA project at its core is about rolling back all civil rights progress going back to the 1960s, but they'll aim for the 1860s if they can. The Texas redistricting effort is transparently racial; Texas has more black residents than any other state (>4 million)!

A tiny tabby and white kitten sits in a blue carrier and peers through the wire door. She looks worried and sad - slightly tilted head and squinting eyes. Poor baby. Photo owned by CatCareNetwork.org

Look at this sweet, sad baby πŸ₯Ή

An adorable but unexpected overnight guest.

Guesstimating 4-5 weeks old (she’s large but still has blue eyes). Her owners didn’t want her anymore 😿 and thankfully got help instead of dumping her outside.

fighting gerrymanders can seem hopeless, but there is a solution. big moment right now for people to see districting and the two-party system as inherently linked, and a relic of our archaic electoral rules. congress has the power to ban partisan gerrymandering and establish multi-member districts.
