This hidden provision is so crooked and selfish, it doesn't even apply to US Representatives. Just US Senators.

This is more aggressive than before but also they need to make some firm demands here of what they want someone new to be able to do.

Just shuffling some chairs around won't do anything.

It is honestly so annoying how all these politicians are playing for spin and clearly do not give a shit about all the lives they are ruining. @governor.ny.gov is the worst.

Seattle's Mamdani is winning by an absurdly small margin over our incumbent mayor, who once pulled a gun on a pregnant woman in a parking lot.

Vote in your local elections!

Furious Liberals Call for Schumer to Step Aside, Senate Dems Mostly Quiet After their shutdown surrender, liberal lawmakers are begging their base to unite behind them anyway – as Trumpland celebrates that their opposition is a bunch of 'p*ssies.'

MoveOn, Indivisible, Our Revolution, and 6 Democrats have called on Chuck Schumer to step aside as leader.

So we asked all 40 Democratic senators who didn’t cave to Republicans if they still think Schumer is the right leader.

Here's what they said.

Advocates in New Jersey say lawmakers should codify into state law a directive that restricts local collaboration with ICE.

Indivisible Launches its Largest Primary Program in Response to Senate Democrats Surrendering on the Shutdown Vote

This was not a surprise to anyone who followed me and other actual reporters who know Supreme Court procedure.

The only places it succeeded were to generate donations for Liberty Counsel and to prompt clicks through ragebait headlines from your favorite resistance grifters.

Sorry, it's true.

Meta is earning a fortune on a deluge of fraudulent ads, documents show Meta projected 10% of its 2024 revenue would come from ads for scams and banned goods, and it internally estimates that its platforms show users 15 billion scam ads a day, company documents show.

If 10% of my business was based on defrauding and scamming people, and was called a "pillar of the global fraud economy", I would have some serious moral qualms about my business. Not our friends at Meta though.

This is a wild case for those of us that listened to it, and its impacts could be out there.

"wait you can sue me, that's not cool bro." Appears to be the entirety of their defense.

something you can do in your daily life to take just an ounce of this outstanding burden off of each others backs is to wear a mask in, at the very least, public indoor spaces. health is wealth is ever more literal. the wiggle room to become sick(er) is vanishing. why wouldn’t you, at this point?

BREAKING: The Supreme Court DENIES former county clerk Kim Davis's request for the justices to take up her longshot bid to overturn 2015's Obergefell v. Hodges marriage equality decision. No justice even writes about the request.

I actually cannot believe he did this. I had to rewatch it twice to confirm I wasn't seeing things.

He says he is going to be more uncompromising than most but ultimately because of political realities will need to compromise to get the system that is possible.

Pinning this again:

Do not use milk, juice, urine, antacids, baking soda on pepper spray or tear gas. Just water. Plain water..

Optical saline ok in eyes, but maybe save it for the dumbasses who wore contact lenses.
Plain soap or shampoo ok on skin, but never in eyes.
