No doubt this has occurred to other bystanders as well, but it would seem that a handful of billionaires dropping $150 million into a single state's election in an attempt to defeat a wealth-tax initiative just about makes the entire case for a wealth-tax initiative.

The tax cuts went to billionaires—not you. Epstein files remain hidden. Families are torn apart by cruel and incompetent mass deportations. Trump promised to drain the swamp, but filled it with cronies and made billions for his family. #NoKingsNoLies #VoteEarly

President Trump’s vanity projects will cost more than $1.8 billion. That money could: Cover 1.7 million months of childcare or restore almost 430,000 families’ SNAP benefits or cover the monthly grocery costs of 1.8 million families He chooses himself. Every time.

If executive branch creates a system so that people under government control can be located and then just stops listing some people in that system — despite their still being under government control — that should be a five-alarm fire for the other branches, the states, and the public.

We cannot let history forget what happens when a federal government uses law enforcement to terrorize innocent people.
 And let me say to any agent or administration official who thinks we've forgotten or that their cruelty will go unchecked: Illinois remembers.

Other news organizations should leave the White House. They can of course still cover the administration--almost none of their coverage depends on being there physically. But they shouldn't stay there, raising their hands dutifully in the briefing room, as if it's business as usual.

What if I'm registered but listed as "inactive"? Re-register. See a pattern here? It’s ok to re-register! Nothing bad will happen if you register again, but bad things could happen (like, you can't vote) if you’re not registered correctly.

Illinois is not meeting Donald Trump's intimidation with fear; we are meeting it with the truth. Our state has stepped up to pursue real justice and transparency with the Illinois Accountability Commission. We will not let the abuse that happened here become our new normal.

It's reasonable to be mad that Arte Moreno made billions of dollars off 25 years of fucking up the Angels in the dumbest, sourest ways, but here is how I coped with the Wilpons doing the same thing with the Mets: these guys know that no one will ever care about them again, and they fucking HATE IT.

Arte Moreno bought the Angels in 2003 (the year after they won the Series) for $184 million. He then spent 23 years running them into the ground, let the stadium decay, wasted Trout and Ohtani, and sold for $4 billion. And the owners are crying poverty and threatening to kill baseball next year.

When Trump last sent agents to Illinois, they murdered a father and shot an innocent woman in broad daylight — then attempted to cover it up. We need to keep reducing violence, but this President does not make it easier. If only he hadn’t defunded the very programs that help.

This is the nut graf here to me. The MLB needs to be fierce and put on a full-court press here, and they almost certainly won't, which means it will be open season on a sports league which relies on Latin American players to make billions.

This whole piece by @tressiemcphd.bsky.social is a must-read, but this part rings especially true. If you're a centrist worried about the future of the party, maybe focus your $15 million freakout on shoring up black voting in the South instead of pushing milquetoast moderates in deep blue NYC?
Black organizers in the South expected a Democratic cavalry after the Voting Rights Act was gutted by the Supreme Court. Instead, they feel abandoned. They look at conservative groups like Heritage Action and Turning Point USA and wonder what they could do with that kind of support.
