Functioning democracies place anti-corruption regulation and enforcement as a high priority.

Not enforcing against corruption allows malign opportunists to garner outsized wealth and influence that helps steer policy and choose leaders. Corruption exacerbates democratic decline.

Wildfire is very predictable with extremely dry weather and winds. Sometimes it’s just careless people who toss cigarettes as they’re walking. Hopefully they can contain it quickly since the winds are not as bad as they’ve been.

Coloradans vote on a new Gov soon. I know that candidate Phil Weiser, current AG, has ideas for redistricting. The only reason Bobo still has a job is that we tried to have fair districts in our state but R’s have a pity district now and Bobo moved there from her old district to avoid losing!

White House circulating blatantly illegal draft emergency order to take control of elections Voting rights experts and at least one state election chief said Trump doesn’t have the authority to claim such powers β€” and any attempt would be blatantly illegal.

A draft emergency executive order to declare a national emergency to allow President Donald Trump to take unprecedented control over voting is being circulating by anti-voting activists who said they are in coordination with the White House. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Well well well. A new dawn in British politics. The centre is dead. A party who openly challenges hateful and divisive policies and the public WANT IT. It’s not a done deal that Reform can win on a platform which says Muslims and migrants don’t belong.

ICE is struggling to keep pace with vetting new hires during its historic recruitment push, so it's hiring officers before completing standard checks.

The agency fired five people after belatedly finding that they had outstanding warrants for their arrest.

Yet they did have a clear assessment of interference, from Russia and other countries, intended to affect the outcome in 2016. People like to think they weren’t swayed by social media propaganda posts from foreign countries but they sure were. Russia also infiltrated the NRA with GOP β€œhoney traps.”

I don’t listen to him enough to know, but just tossing out that someone is a danger (with a menacing tone) and then moving along with no explanation is a terrible way to communicate. Tim’s blindspot is 2020 riots, never mentioning the well documented right wing destruction & violence & incitement.

Frum seems to cling more tightly to label fear mongering about β€œdem socialists” or β€œwoke” - cryptically warns Mamdani is a danger & whines abt AOC - giving no explanations why. If you fear control over markets or corruption or ??, speak on that, don’t just give empty vague warnings with no basis.

I wish we could erase the old labels and start fresh with policy because when Tim’s β€œconservative,” is not evangelical authoritarian. He wants conserve liberalism. The US founding ideas that all people deserve freedom, right to protest, representation in gov’t, equal justice, etc. Opposite of maga.

It’s a good question. The labels people use in the US are treated total unchanging truths, yet they mean completely different things to different people: socialist, conservative, Christian, liberal. What he calls conservative & what you call liberal may be extremely close to the same philosophy.

I missed that Konan v. USPS came out yesterday. This is the case where the Post Office refused to deliver mail to a Black woman. Of course Clarence Thomas, 5-4, says it's okay.

Clarence Thomas is the worst thing to happen to Black people since Roger Taney

Please, why the close-up of his mouth & multiples of his old face? I want to repost and share relevant news that may sway people who are short on facts like this, but I am so sick of his face. The images eat away at the perceived credibility of the publication, too.

Chanting "tax the Jews" is blatant antisemitism. I condemn it unequivocally. Antisemitism is rising in our communities. One father shared that his 13 year old daughter did not want to display the menorah in the window of their house. We must speak out against this bigotry.

Are the CEOs in the Epstein files or what? What is wrong with all of these men who just blindly follow the worst person for whatever he says or does?

Whirlpool is often brought on Fox News to manufacture support for Trump's tariffs; they've cut 600 jobs already from their Amana, Iowa plant since July last year and told the union to expect more in a few months

Op-Ed: β€œAffordability” Should Mean Being Able to Afford Time Off, Too β€’ The Austin Chronicle In Washington, Democrats have a top priority: helping people afford the things they need to live well – a home, food, health care, child care. I agree that should be our top priority. But a few months...

I took some time at home after my son’s birth.

It was the most meaningful time of my life.

I was lucky. But this shouldn’t be a matter of luck.

All Americans should be able to take time β€” for a new baby, to get better or care for a sick loved one, and to enjoy life.
