If you hate pedophiles and their enablers, help her out.

Federal judge in Rhode Island is ordering the Trump administration to pay full SNAP benefits for November, saying the USDA lost the discretion to pay partial benefits when it failed to get those funds to recipients fast enough.

"USDA arbitrarily and capriciously created this problem." Story TK

Trump literally could not care less if you live or die.

If the sandwich don’t split, you must acquit

A true hero.

Interesting Times with Ross Douthat: Did Women Ruin the Workplace?

Did the New York Times ruin journalism?

Please stop falling for the MTG is a new person con.

Please.

The more we see of nationwide results, the more yesterday feels like a referendum on Trump. One that he lost, badly.

Yes, @acshilton.bsky.social!:Special elections always create opportunity for change—& an off-cycle special on different dates (early runs 12-26.Nov! Election Day 02.Dec!) w/no incumbents?

Wide.Open.Race!

@aftynbehn.bsky.social is 💯% the change-making, committed, candidate we need—Vote Behn in CD7!

California voters approve Democratic-drawn congressional map as national redistricting battle spreads NBC News projects that a ballot measure has passed allowing California Democrats to bypass an independent redistricting commission and counter GOP efforts around the country.

BREAKING: California voters approve a new House map designed to help Democrats net 5 seats next year, NBC News projects, countering Republican redistricting in other states.

the odd lightness of shrugging off the usual leadenness for one moment, like slipping off a weight so customary i’d almost forgotten how else to be

I'll go ahead and say it. Texas book banners got their butts kicked in tonight's school board elections. Again.

Better things are possible. Still.

For better and for worse, it's undeniable: democratic socialists are the base of the Democratic Party

this is a reminder that we dont have to settle for newsom in 2028

Repro wins so far:

- Virginia protected its status as the last abortion access haven in the South

- The Pennsylvania Supreme Court retained the three Democratic justices needed to protect abortion

- New Jersey elected a Dem governor (vital as one of the few states w/zero abortion restrictions)

Colorado is doubling down on our super popular program to tax the rich and pay for free school meals for every single public school kid. Universal programs have herd immunity. Tax the rich and use the money to give everyone else something popular.

Dick Cheney dies, Zohran Mamdani wins, a beaver moon shines in the sky… I just know the Etsy witches have been busy.

Republicans who think your seat is safe: no it's not

WASHINGTON (AP) — Democrat Abigail Spanberger wins Virginia governor’s race.

Btw, Virginia Republicans are getting some very bad advice from anti-abortion powerhouses: this happened in 2023, too, when they all listened to Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America and went all in on abortion. Had their asses handed to them
