Florida’s Constitution Bans The Sort Of Map-Rigging Republicans Want To Do There — HuffPost
The focus of Trump’s mid-decade redistricting war now turns to Florida, where his demands face a constitutional ban on districts drawn to favor a party.

A federal judge just ruled the White House broke the law by pulling down a public site that tracked Congressional spending. Why’d they yank it? Because people were catching DOGE making fraudulent claims and inflating “savings” that didn’t exist. Transparency isn’t optional.

Hate is powerful. In fact it’s powerful enough to convince people to destroy the programs they benefit from, to give more money to the very rich, because they somehow believe it hurts the people they don’t like.

Sen Patty Murray just confirmed it: Republicans blocked her amendment to remove the provision that would defund Planned Parenthood. She’s calling it what it is—a backdoor national abortion ban. Extreme, dangerous, and wrong. 📞 Call 202-224-3121 Tag your senators. Demand they kill the bill. #VoteNo

In Bell, CA an entire community stood up against ICE, including the local police and the fire dept. The fire truck appears to not allow ICE vehicles to move forward nor remain and pushes forward to escort them out. A police car also helped with escorting. /

Quaint historic port town of Apalachicola Florida on the Gulf of Mexico.
An enthusiastic group of about 35 resisters at the blinking light intersection in the City of Apalachicola. A “red” (reddish) coastal town in a red State - that is getting almost pink at this point.

Pricey real estate. $40 Boston fern. I believe it’s a sparrow. Hopefully, I can provide an update.
4 tiny blue-ish eggs in a perfectly constructed nest inside an expensive porch fern that is just going to have to get over it. I’ll be happy to the babies!

This week, as the number of confirmed measles cases rose to 483, the CDC buried a report that would’ve stressed the importance of getting vaccinated. The move was “not normal at all,” one agency staff member said. By @sheinvestigates.bsky.social

The CDC Buried a Measles Forecast That Stressed the Need for Vaccinations
The move — along with the CDC’s explanation — is a sign that the nation’s top public health agency may be falling in line under HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a longtime critic of vaccines.

If you think what happened to Rumeysa Ozturk can't happen to you because you're a citizen and she's not, you are sorely mistaken. Ozturk was snatched off the street not for being a national security threat but for having a wrong opinion. If we don't put a stop to this, it's coming for all of us.
