I still can’t believe how they called it Project 2025, and people were still willing to believe it wasn’t the plan all along.

Kennedy must be removed from office. He has already caused a catastrophe at HHS and the CDC. I strongly suspect that he is about to use data manipulated by unscrupulous and unqualified individuals to attempt to falsely show that vaccines are in some way a net harm. He simply must be stopped.

New statement from TX House Dems: "After deliberation among our caucus, we have reached a consensus: Texas House Democrats refuse to give him a quorum to pass his racist maps" mailchi.mp/texashousede...
TEXAS HOUSE DEMS: WHAT HAPPENS NEXT IS UP TO ABBOTT
Texas House Democrats are ready to deliver on flood relief,
but Abbott must prioritize the needs of Texans

CHICAGO — After Speaker Dustin Burrows, Lt. Gov Dan Patrick, and Gov. Greg Abbott announced that they will capitulate to Democratic demands to end their corrupt special session on Friday, but promised to call another, Texas House Democratic Caucus Chair Rep. Gene Wu issued the following statement:

“What happens next is entirely up to Greg Abbott. After deliberation among our caucus, we have reached a consensus: Texas House Democrats refuse to give him a quorum to pass his racist maps that silence more than 2 million Black and Latino Texans — in keeping with our original promise to Texans, the First Called Special Session will never make quorum again, defeating Abbott’s first attempt at passing his racial gerrymander.

Article 1, Section 9 & 10 have been removed from the official Govt website on the US Constitution. Among numerous points: •Section 9 forbids suspending The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus •Section 10 forbids ex post facto laws This better be a joke. Ignoring these is full blow dictatorship

For most of my life, I had no desire to be politically active. When I started on TwiXter in 2014, it was to promote a poetry chapbook. I was politically independent, the only stance that felt justifiable. Then the next couple of years happened. (Thread)
Picture of the back cover of my book “Declaration” with a poem excerpt:

From "Stolen Guilty
Moments":
But tonight, I linger:
I pull the car in; ignore exhaust that curls up, dissolves into neighborhood air;
glance at window lights
that accentuate evening's steady creep; reach for the radio and turn it up,
nudge back at a world that pushes inexorably on.
For a stolen fifty-seven seconds I lean back, loosen my tie, close my eyes,
float.

Just to get this straight, President Tariffs Will Bring Jobs Back Home wants to pay other countries millions of dollars to take our migrants instead of giving that funding to Americans to do the same thing. Seems wasteful on top of being ridiculously cruel.

What if our votes were weighted on a curve favoring success? Letting OK set policy for MA seems self-destructive, and yet the Electoral College is selecting for failure.

Why Does No One Understand the Real Reason Trump Won?
It wasn’t the economy. It wasn’t inflation, or anything else. It was how people perceive those things, which points to one overpowering answer.
