Every Democratic state that can do this, should do this.

Then, when we control the levels of power in DC, we ban gerrymandering for the entire country. Once and for all. Everyone playing by the same rules.

If only there were a recent example of people destroying a famous piece of Washington DC, out of which we might make an example

How?

ChatGPT Lured Him Down a Philosophical Rabbit Hole. Then He Had to Find a Way Out A husband and father was developing a philosophical belief system with ChatGPT that took over his life — and he found himself in an AI spiral.

My latest AI piece is about a man who wanted to use ChatGPT to develop an idea for a short story. Instead he experienced more than a month of psychosis as he conjured “ghosts” of famous philosophers in a quest for ultimate meaning and truth. By the end, he had stopped sleeping.

Democrats investigating Republicans who are trying to arrest Democrats for protesting Republicans.

The current state of American politics is exhausting.

WATCH: “Are you f*cking out of your mind?”

@marcmaron won’t let @howiemandel downplay the impact comedians like Joe Rogan have had on stripping rights from trans people, immigrants, etc. with “hack” bullying jokes that helped pave the way for Trump & the radical right takeover.

Want to see billboards in every major city that just say

'Power Bill Too High? Thank "Generative AI"' and then a link to a website all about "AI" and data center energy and water use

A deadly shooting at the CDC shook its scientists. Now they want answers from RFK Jr. CDC Director Susan Monarez convened an online all-hands meeting of the agency division that focuses on vaccines, and employees called out Kennedy’s rhetoric specifically.

Exclusive: CDC Director Susan Monarez met with its vaccine-focused center to talk about yesterday’s shooting. I listened to a recording. Scientists and officials are shaken & pointing fingers at RFK Jr. Many said his vilification and misinfo turned them into targets. www.msnbc.com/opinion/anal...

Cool country we’ve got

Pete Hegseth shares a clip saying women shouldn’t have the right to vote, the 19th Amendment should be “repealed,” and women should “submit” to their husbands: “All of Christ for All of Life”

Do we still have to take their abortion shit seriously

A particularly gut wrenching excerpt from this article:

“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book has been rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street and building has been renamed, every date has been altered…Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”

We've become so accustomed to lawbreaking that this probably won't ripple much, but it is important not to forget that firing the IRS Commissioner for refusing to break the law--if that's in fact what happened here--would and should prompt immediate articles of impeachment in any other presidency.

We’re training one million Americans how to chip away at the civic pillars Trump needs to cement and uphold his power — media, business leaders, civic organizations, and beyond. Join us on Wednesday: www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

I wish more people took this tac, fighting them on their own terms. You can't convince someone to have empathy if they don't have it, but you can call out their stuff for being hacky as shit which is actually deflating to them.

Reminder, again, that, yes, while the DOGE-ing was juvenile & clueless, it is vitally important to remain focused on the fact that these people need to be arrested, prosecuted, & sent to jail for a very long time for illegally & unconstitutionally dismantling the federal government.

Suspect and Officer Are Dead After Shooting Outside C.D.C. in Atlanta

The Emory shooter was a regular visitor to right-wing social media accounts which persuaded him that the Covid-19 vaccine was to blame for all his personal medical problems. So he took his gun to shoot up the CDC, killing a policeman in the process.

Give Amy Madigan an Oscar nom my goodness. #WEAPONS

The social media accounts for federal law enforcement agencies keep posting the exact kinds of things you'd report to federal law enforcement agencies if a normal citizen posted them.

Just a note that these are likely career civil servants, and their firing is illegal, but the Supreme Court has chosen not to stop the purge of government employees for partisan reasons.

When they get to the criminals let me know

Slam dunk lawsuit right here if I’ve ever seen one.
