LIVE: Allison Gill - REPUBLICANS DIRTY SHUTDOWN SECRET REVEALED YouTube video by MeidasTouch

I have receipts that republicans can end the shutdown right now without a single democratic vote, and that the trump administration wants this shutdown and that's why they're not ending it. See the proof! www.youtube.com/live/PkEOK7J...

Abolish ICE.

Pass it on.

I typed out the sentence "Jane Goodall was the best of us" at least 40 times over the last 24 hours. It brought up some thoughts on who deserves that designation. Right alongside the late Fred Rogers, what I knew without having to think about it was that Levar Burton is the best of us.

You're my favorite billionaire. In fairness, because I mostly hate them, but also keep up the good work, sir. You've been one of the best messengers our side has had of late.

James Taylor is putting out a new album? First I've heard of it, ma'am.

This hits hard coming from you, sir. Thank you for continuing to speak out during these awfully trying times.

A Thomas Paine pamphlet/Federalist Papers-level guiding document to look to if and when we ever get a chance to truly fix this fucking mess.

We should have elected the last candidate for major political office who made joy a major part of the campaign too.

A decision for the history books. Or a Fedetalist Papers/Thomas Paine pamphlet analog for the future if we ever get a chance to fix some of the fundamental issues that are, at present, rearing their hideously ugly heads.

This man (and/or his team) is conspicuously REALLY good at this. Anyone in Dem leadership who hasn't both fervently endorsed him AND taken copious notes is so clearly miles off base. (Jeffries and Schumer especially).

Judge Young was the hero of the day for this opinion yesterday. Today's is, of course, the late, great Jane Goodall. There are always helpers to look for when everything feels bleak.

I came to the Capitol, ready to be sworn in and get to work for the people of Southern Arizona. Instead, Speaker Johnson chose to delay, denying our community the representation we deserve.

They simply don't make 'em better than Jane Goodall. She was fearlessness, brilliance, and compassion personified. There's been something in my eye since I heard the news this afternoon.

Let's boil down the Mikie Sherrill military records episode: She didn't walk w her Naval Academy graduation class bc she didn't rat out classmates who cheated. Then she served honorably for 10 years. Ciattarelli is a pro-Trump hack whose campaign leaked her illegally obtained records. That's it.

We need leaders with firmly held principles, not talking points, not consultants, and not policy-by-polling. The polling was we elected you. Do the job we hired you for.

These are the ones we need to NOT quit. Because they'd only be replaced by those who would blindly follow illegal orders and there's a good chance many of these ones would refuse.

Don't let the cheater (Jack Trumparelli) win. Still a couple hours to donate to @mikiesherrill.bsky.social before the FEC deadline if you can. If not, at least make a plan to get your vote for her in before or on election day.

In like one decade, we went from aspiring to be the "leader of the free world" and "championing human rights" to advocating for being more like... [checks notes]... China. This might not actually be a good thing.

Hero of the day right there. I don't often read 161-page judicial opinions (I'm not ashamed to admit that I skimmed over some of the more administrative stuff) but this was absolute fire.

Just for Men Control GX (gradual, gray-reducing beard wash) works pretty well if you're into that sort of thing.

Tagging a couple people I thought of off the top of my head who might want to see this. Do the same from your head or the list of people you follow.
