They tortured her. This is legalized torture The death penalty is always wrong Always Yes even for THOSE crimes You cannot trust any state with the death penalty. Once you allow the state to openly kill people for specific crimes, you give them incentive to charge their critics with those crimes

This aligns exactly with what we know about noncitizen voting; it is extremely rare (9 noncitizen votes in MN out of 3,253,920 in the 2024 election, or 0.0002%), and when it occurs it’s most often green card holders who were mistakenly told they could vote (none of these people are undocumented).

#Atrazine is single-handedly making clean water unavailable and posing long-term dangers to people and wildlife in affected areas. The #EPA, which is considering reapproving this #pesticide, should follow the lead of five dozen countries around the world and implement a permanent ban on atrazine.

Pernicious Pesticide: Atrazine's Growing Threats to Drinking Water, Rivers, People, and Wildlife
Atrazine is one of the most widely used U.S. pesticides. It's also the most widespread pesticide contaminant in U.S. water bodies and dangerous to both people and wildlife.

To be clear, Congress isn’t in recess, it has been completely nullified by MAGA terrorists to aid and abet the orange felon. That to me is what I’d call treason.

After Eric Schmitt lied and was corrected at the Jack Smith hearing, the NY Times called it a “misunderstanding.” This might be fair if Schmitt had a record of honesty (he doesn’t) and if Schmitt didn’t repeat the same lie after the hearing (he did). What the hell is the NY Times doing?

Reporting from Washington
Jack Smith, who as special counsel twice charged Donald J. Trump with criminal offenses after his first term, defended his actions in testimony before Congress on Tuesday, as a Republican senator accused him of perjury based on what appeared to be the lawmaker’s misunderstanding about a basketball game involving the University of Iowa Hawkeyes.

Fascism depends on silence, fear, obedience, and the belief that resistance is pointless. Resist anyway. Speak when silence is demanded. Organize when isolation is encouraged. Defend the rights they tell you are expendable. Democracy survives when people refuse to surrender it. #Vote 🌊

Trump's foreign policy is not isolationist. On the contrary, his ideologues want to build an international empire run by far-right political movements who serve American crypto, mineral and tech companies, many with links to the president. Read more here: www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...
