His Family was shown mercy. I was fortunate to not have needed this help, however, I did see/know and work with families and children that were not as lucky as you JD. Babies born in need of Medical intervention, employers who fire at the worst time, eviction notice, yes, the dream is real for 3% 🇺🇸

Hey, here's a random thought: maybe all of us who are Democrats and progressives should pause attacks on each other for the next three weeks and focus on beating Republicans. I promise our arguments will be so much more interesting in January after a blue tsunami.

Mishandling appropriated funds in this manner is a felony.

National Science Foundation Diverted $1.4 Billion in Science Funds Mandated by Congress
The move, affecting about one-fifth of the National Science Foundation’s primary research budget, is the latest sign of how the White House is asserting more control over grants.

Trump could nominate the worst person with a law degree in America and this Republican senate will confirm that person. That includes Susan Collins, who always confirms Trump’s justices. The only chance you have to keep that person off the court is to elect Democratic senators.

Glad President Biden is finally speaking out.
PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN GOES OFF ON TRUMP:

"THE CORRUPTION. THE BRAZEN, BLATANT CORRUPTION. CORRUPTION ON A SCALE NEVER SEEN IN AMERICAN HISTORY IN ANY ADMINISTRATION. TRUMP HAS MADE BILLIONS SINCE HE RETURNED TO THE WHITE HOUSE. IT'S SIMPLY STUNNING TO ME. HE HAS NO SHAME"

"Flooding the zone" with this stuff might be in order.
Post from Mark R Elias 

"I think I'm getting the hang of this."

Mark's question to America.gov

Does the president have the authority over the conduct of federal elections,?

Answer:
The Constitution does not give the president the power to run or set the rules for federal elections. States have the main job if administering them. Congress can change most of those rules by statue. The president's role is to enforce existing federal law, not to replace state or congressional election rules.

He named names. Both parties. An insider’s road map to corruption in Congress. ProPublica corroborated much of what he said about Susan Collins. The FBI probe died under Trump. Congress must investigate. Subpoena the list. Let’s see who sold their souls. Time to clean house.

Donald Trump is so crude, stupid, and lowbrow, he has no appreciation for the majestic beauty of our national parks. If a place doesn't have gaudy gilding, flashing neon, and ringing cash registers, he doesn't see worth.

Living in a country where Brett Kavanaugh, an alleged sexual assaulter, is elevated to the most prestigious job a lawyer can have, it is no wonder that the frat men who raped this woman were punished with . . . [checks notes] . . . having to write an essay. We are not a country that protects women.

THIS SHOULD BE NATIONAL NEWS This has been public for more than a week, and I can’t find a single national TV report. Just local. Why? REPORT: A female Cornell student alleges she was pressured into taking ketamine, then sexually assaulted for hours by multiple Chi Phi fraternity members in 2024.

In a Cornell University fraternity house and in the empty silence of phone screens, Jane Doe was being given the message that so many of our daughters hear every single day from their politicians, pastors, fathers, and peers: you just don’t f*ckin’ matter. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/cornells-j...

Cornell’s Jane Doe Needed One Good Man In That House And That Group Chat. She Would Find None.
Warning: this piece includes references to sexual assault, as well as words many may find offensive.
