Once a week, for the next 10 weeks, I’m going to share a short passage from my book, Giving Up Is Unforgivable. This isn’t a greatest hits collection. I want to revisit ideas that still feel useful for where we are now and that will help us keep the Republic. joycevance.substack.com/p/the-republ...

It's almost like putting a quack anti-vaccine conspiracy theorist in charge of the nation's health policy has consequences. "The United States has now had more measles deaths in the past two years than we have had in the previous three decades combined...": www.ms.now/news/pennsyl...

Pennsylvania’s measles outbreak is the largest in decades in the U.S.

The state has surpassed 1,000 measles cases this year, health officials said Monday, making it the largest outbreak in the U.S. in more than three decades.

Russians have struck the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra and are burning down one of Ukraine's oldest Orthodox churches. The cathedral is a significant part of our history, it is older than Moscow. It was already there when russian neanderthals were building shacks made of sticks and shit.

Fuckface went to war to hide his coverup of the biggest child trafficking operation in history. It was his scheme once he learned it from Epstein. He is the one extorting the money from the billionaire pedos. He even said Epstein stole Virginia G from him.

The same reason Saudi Arabia was the first country Trump visited as President. It seemed bizarre at the time but we now know that family was intent on grifting & stealing from the beginning.

However, the poll didn’t use the actual ballot language, which can significantly skew ballot measure responses. Maryland’s actual ballot text is on the right

Question 3: Congressional redistricting amendment
Likely voters were asked two questions about Question 3 that used plain-language
descriptions of the proposed change and what a vote for or against the amendment
would do.1
Question wording: This November, Maryland voters will also decide Question 3, a
constitutional amendment on how lawmakers draw congressional district lines.
A vote FOR Question 3 eliminates the state’s requirement that congressional districts be
compact and connected, removing constraints on how state lawmakers can draw
congressional district lines.
A vote AGAINST keeps those requirements in place.2
Do you plan to vote for or against Question 3 this November?

Question 3
Constitutional Amendment
For the purpose of clarifying that certain requirements apply only to districts for the election of members of the Senate of Maryland and the House of Delegates; authorizing the General Assembly to grant original jurisdiction to the Supreme Court of Maryland to review the congressional districting plan of the State; and providing that nothing in the Maryland Constitution provides applicable criteria for the boundaries of a congressional districting plan.

The Trump administration has quietly announced that its own lawyers will represent unaccompanied migrant children in immigration court, facing off against other administration lawyers who are trying to deport the kids.

#PA07 Your bills keep going up. The minimum wage? Still $7.25 since 2006. Jeff Bezos paid $0 in federal taxes. Bob Brooks a 20 years Bethlehem firefighter, is running on healthcare for All, raising the wage, repealing Trump's tax cuts for the rich. Bob will end corruption in DC! #ResistanceUnited

“Of course the economy is horrible,” Paxton's senior advisor Michelle Smith said on X. In another post, Smith said it’s obvious “the economy is hurting everybody right now.” Trump yesterday: My rallies are showing people "how great the economy is doing." Tonight should be interesting!

LOL: "Of course the economy is horrible," Ken Paxton's senior advisor Michelle Smith said today on social media, hours before Trump -- who insists the economy is "great" -- heads to Texas for a campaign rally with Paxton. www.huffpost.com/entry/live-u...
