Yes, yes, the authoritarian president is leading a hate-filled rally in which he urges his followers to physically assault protesters but do NOT call any of these people Nazis or you will make David Brooks sad.

This new Sherrod Brown ad debunks a anti trans ad while tying the Republican senate candidate to Jeffrey Epstein. THIS is how you fight back against anti trans ads.

Susan Collins is always horrified by the predictable results of her own vote, which means Mainers who genuinely care about Susan Collins should elect Troy Jackson as he won’t vote for things that wind up upsetting Susan Collins, unlike Susan Collins

If someone posted this about a Jewish Senator, it would be rightly condemned as anti-semitism. El-Sayed was born and raised in Michigan, but because he is Muslim he is perpetually foreign and under suspicion.

It’s framed as a defense of kavanaugh when it is in actuality an argument that kavanaugh was entirely unfit for the job, someone who rules out of spite rather than the law

At any other time, the false Hearn indictment under the demand of the president would result in impeachment and removal. But naked corruption and thuggery doesn’t matter anymore and this isn’t even the worst scandal of the day after Trump accused MN of domestic terrorism.

July 25th will now be known statewide in Illinois as a Day of Reflection and Remembrance for Emmett Till and Mamie Till-Mobley. We understand here in our state that we cannot build a more just future if we are unwilling to confront the injustices of our past.
Today, Governor JB Pritzker joined legislators and community members at Roberts Temple Church of God in Christ to sign HB 4323, officially designating July 25 as Emmett Till Day in Illinois.

Is it too much to ask of senators on the Judiciary Comm at Blanche’s confirmation hearing to ask really well-crafted specific questions instead of using up their time with pointless speeches? Seems like there is a lot to ask him. Try to keep the focus on Blanche and not yourself.

there is a cohort of men who resent the responsibilities and obligations of adulthood — of the fact that you owe things to other people. it is a fundamentally childish impulse that they have reconfigured as the height of masculinity, and i think it informs the parasocial attraction to platner.
