Melania Trump tried to bully me into silence because she didn’t like what I had to say about her. Shouldn’t our First Lady have more important things to worry about?

Don’t ask an elected official if they “believe” in climate change, it’s not a religion. Don’t ask if they think it’s serious: it is. Ask them what matters most: what are they doing about it? Excellent application here, 10/10 no notes 👏⬇️👏

Republicans: Always wanting power - never taking responsibility. Their entire platform is perpetuating problems, while shifting the blame to a third party. And they'll do it over and over - until voters see through it.

I’ll be speaking with the BBC this afternoon about the rural Democratic movement across the country…the movement I’ve been reporting for years now. It has traction, friends. MAGA is in for a surprise from rural America in just a few weeks. Slowly but surely. Change is happening.

“On Thursday, scientists reported that they had found another gene-editing defense in nature, this one in viruses… This system, called VIPR, appears to be more than four billion years old, and it seems be the evolutionary ancestor of CRISPR… It may prove to be the more powerful gene-editing tool”

The Next Gene-Editing Technology May Also Be the Oldest
Scientists have discovered a powerful gene-targeting system in viruses. Billions of years old, VIPR seems to predate CRISPR and may be even more effective.

The administration has provided zero evidence that these are drug traffickers, and even if they were, there are legal processes for their arrest and trial. What we DO know is that the administration has stopped pursuing actual drug cases to go after immigrants instead.

Great suggestions for returning a ballot. The problem is getting one delivered. If you're not home could FedEx or UPS drop one off at your door? Or an appointment to pick up one at some office? Would each state have its own postal service just to deliver ballots? Otherwise it has to use the USPS.

There's republicans and then there's the opposition party. The opposition party needs to be united. Whether you want medicare for all or to expand the APA or reform ICE or abolish ICE, we're all democrats and we need to get the GOP out. We can hash out our differences when we have the majority.

Consider this a PSA from someone who consumes a LOT of Fox News (about 900 hours per year). If you are a Democrat (any kind of Democrat) avoid feeding the propaganda machine - don't go on Fox. A few skilled politicians can handle the network but for most Dems it's not worth it.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Волод... & - 30m

Today, the Russians used their ballistic missile to destroy an ordinary house belonging to an ordinary family in Radushne, near Kryvyi Rih, in our Dnipro region. It was the Voronov family: mother Olena, father Artem, seven children - Mark, Dominika, Zakharii, Azarii llai, Federica, Emilia, and Viorika - and one-and-a-half-year-old grandson Artem, the child of their eldest son, who is now defending Ukraine. As of now, it has been confirmed that parents and three children - Mark, Azarii llai, and Emilia - were killed. The Russian missile struck with such force that almost nothing was left of the house... Fragments of human bodies were found under the rubble, and only forensic examinations can establish which members of the family they belong to. The fate of Zakharii, Dominika, Viorika, Federica, and Artem is still being determined... It is a horrific crime of Russia's war against Ukraine - against ordinary people, against ordinary life.
This Russian evil can only be stopped by the whole world. No one in the world can be left to face such terror alone. And when we say that Ukraine needs missiles for Patriots, when we seek the capabilities to defend ourselves against Russian ballistic missiles, this isn't about abstractions. We are talking about families like this, people like these, who can live if we have the means to shoot down Russian missiles - if our partners help us with interceptors. Families who can be killed if we have nothing to stop Russian Iskanders with.It is important that these people are seen by those who make decisions - decisions at the Pentagon, in European capitals, and everywhere in the world where there is an opportunity to help Ukraine protect lives. Reality speaks for itself.
Protecting lives is necessary. Air defense missiles are necessary.
Eternal memory to all Ukrainians who were killed by Russian strikes... Eternal gratitude to everyone who helps!
