“He tried to subvert the will of the people and steal the presidency,” Sen. Durbin, Ranking Member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, used his opening statement in the Jack Smith hearing to recap President Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election. WATCH LIVE: www.youtube.com/live/H69_OqF...

The two places where adult men experience the highest rates of sexual assault are in the military and while incarcerated. That fact alone proves that sexual assault is about power, domination and humiliation. It's about making someone "your bitch" - proving the inherent misogyny involved.

Would be comic if it were not vicious. Actually it’s both. Sen Schmitt framed a whole perjury suggestion on the basis of Jack Smith’s attending an Atlanta Hawks game and surreptitiously seeing Fulton County prosecutor. In fact it was Iowa Hawkeyes (Caitlin Clark) in College Park Maryland

In Boasberg en banc, strong argument that everyone understood Boasberg’s order was clear that the deportees couldn’t leave US jurisdiction. US just playing word games.

Back to smith hearing, the Rs are assessed with smith having subpoenaed their toll records (i.e. records of numbers dial not conversation). But that move was completely orthodox. If not mandatory to learn what Trump and meadows were up to that day. And the idea that it’s speech or debate is risible.

As I keep arguing, one of the most grotesque failings of the media right now is to widely and uncritically treat it as established fact that JD Vance was a war "skeptic."

Go beyond Twitter where the right wing narrative dominates the real life looks something different. 2/3 of the country disapprove of Trump and more than half hate him intensely & it will only get worse. Writing is on the wall & only way Trump can stop it is by wrecking elections. He is trying.

Gloria Steinem. My God, what a loss. 💔 A full life dedicated to women's rights. Her fingerprints across so many victories. She is needed now more than ever and we must do everything we can to continue her legacy. I could never read the dedication of her memoir without weeping. I mean, oooof 😭

This book is dedicated to Dr John Sharpe of London who in 1957, a decade before physicians in England could legally perform an abortion for any reason other than the health of the woman, took the considerable risk of referring for an abortion, a 22-year-old American on her way to India.

knowing only that she had broken an engagement at home to seek an unknown fate, he said "you must promise me two things. first, you will not tell anyone my name. Second, you will do what you want to do with your life."

Dear Dr Sharpe, I believe you, who knew the law was unjust, would not mind if I say this so long after your death I've done the best I could with my life. This book is for you.

Gloria Steinem spent her life fighting tirelessly for women's rights. She was a champion for equity in the workplace, domestic violence protections, getting women elected to office, and so much more. Thank you, Gloria. We follow in your footsteps to make the world a brighter, safer place for all. 💜

Gloria Steinem died with fewer rights than she had during her lifetime. That fact needs to be front and centre of every media report, every dedication, every discussion of her death.

Ossoff invoked Natalie Harp as a means to characterize Donald Trump as not wanting to do his job. This was not an attack against Natalie. El-Sayed invoked Usha Vance to turn the bigotry within JD Vance's family that *JD* was willing to campaign on against him. This was not an attack against Usha.

Jolly: "Nationally, it completely restructures American politics when a D gets elected in FL. The road to the White House now changes dramatically in 28. We can claw back congressional seats that were just gerrymandered. But more importantly, we let voters reimagine what our politics can look like."

She “declined?” “Declined”? You can’t just decline to get a security clearance. You either get one or you don’t have a job. So much dysfunction in this White House. When will the GOP have had enough? Why risk the country for this? www.ms.now/news/trump-a...

Trump aide Natalie Harp worked at the White House without security clearance for a year

The close aide to the president, known to filter much of the information reaching the commander-in-chief, ultimately relented in recent months after pressure from White House staff.
