More of this please.

Don’t let them squirm away from what they have done, and what they continue to allow.

EPA just approved new β€˜forever chemical’ pesticides for use on food Critics warn the EPA’s approvals of new PFAS pesticides could expose more Americans to β€œforever chemicals” through their food.

So much for MAHA.

Listen to her response.

β€œLook what you made him do.”

Lack of empathy. Victim blaming. Gaslighting.

The language and tactics of abusers.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

Lindsey Halligan says full grand jury never saw final indictment it handed up against Comey | CNN Politics Interim US Attorney Lindsey Halligan said only two grand jurors reviewed the final indictment it handed up against former FBI Director James Comey. β€œThere is no indictment,” Comey’s attorney replied.

Ope.

As with a lot of things in this administration, helpful to understand a bit of psychology in evaluating party dynamics.

The term "narcissist discard" refers to when a narcissist abruptly ends a relationship when a person is no longer useful.

Not 3d chess, friends. It’s just a personality disorder.

Federal judges block Texas from using its new US House map in the 2026 midterms A panel of three federal judges has blocked Texas from using a new congressional map that Republicans drew in hopes of picking up five U.S. House seats.

As we say in the midwest ... Ope!

What's Stopping You? One Question. Nine Years. $1 Million.

Forgive me the personal reverie, friends. It’s my 9-year Small Deeds anniversary this week.

I thought I’d celebrate with a story, and a question, and a story about a question. πŸ’™

Republicans have made us all so much less safe.

I am so very, very angry about that.

Guess where you take 15 year olds to be treated for medical conditions?

The children’s hospital.

Because they are children.

Fetterman strongly opposed the shutdown (as we all did) because people were/are going without food. That’s due to this administration’s intentional infliction of pain.

Now more people will go without healthcare and die.

That’s not hyperbole. It’s just a fact.

My favorite quote is from Frankenstein. β€œBeware, for I am fearless, and therefore powerful.”

It’s delivered by a monster who came into its power after finally seeing that it had nothing to lose.

I look around the country today and see a lot of fearless people, coming into their power.

Beware.

Let’s just pause for a moment to appreciate that Leavitt dropped the β€œsituation room” scoop in an attempt to sidestep an answer.

Hey so β€œunderage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

This is the question on everyone’s mind.

… Especially Trump’s.

It will be poetic if women – survivors of terrible abuses by powerful men – are the ones that break through and hobble this administration.

And more and more, that's looking possible.

NEW: Jeffrey Epstein said in emails that he had been advising the Russian government on how to deal with Donald Trump, one of several cases in which he wielded his connections to try to influence the course of foreign affairs. w @nahaltoosi

Convention Has Held Us Back: The Political Earthquake That Eight Democrats Ignored Some see the path. Some don't.

β€œWe’re so afraid of doing it wrong that we’ve forgotten how to do it right. People are not looking for convention; they’re not looking for the most palatable. They’re looking for vision and courage and conviction and forward momentum.

Last week was proof. Or, it should have been.”
