dammit, this story got picked up nationally. The media cannot resist this angle Meanwhile, besides the fact that Demuth has NO PLAN for healthcare, she wants to repeal our state's paid family and medical leave policy, which would devastate most people who need cancer treatment TRY HARDER, NPR

A day spent reading one of Darcie's books is a very good day indeed. And then when you're done, give it to a kid. They deserve a good day too.

This is true AND this ad sucks because there’s an implication that it would be acceptable as long as she’d included some “exceptions.” Progressive comms machines end up fucking over long term goals with stuff like this. Get some repro justice people on your staff. It’s 2026.

No. He fucking. Doesn't. The only thing Clammy Sammy Altman sees is his own dank face looking back at him. That's all any narcissist sees. Not to mention the hole in the ground for his bunker for when this all implodes. I hear it just gets deeper by the day. Like he's digging to Hell.

Just a reminder that these Haitian immigrants in Springfield -- who came here legally, did everything they were asked to do and more -- became a target of federal crackdowns because the white nationalist vice president shamelessly spread racist lies about them.

Repeal
To Save Kids,
Fla. Demands
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (UPI)
Florida officials demanded
an end to Daylight Saving Time
yesterday to "stop the slaugh-
ter of children" going to school
in the pre-dawn darkness.
With the death toll since
last Jan. 6, when DST was or-
dered by Congress to save
energy, put at 8 by the state
Department of Education,
Gov. Reubin Askew and state
Education Chief Floyd Chris-
tian called on Congress to
"promptly repeal" DST nation-
wide.
And State Senate President
Mallory Horne proposed a
special session of the Legisla-
ture for next week to take
Florida off DST immediately.
ASKEW CALLED an emer-
gency meeting of the state
board of education for Mon-
day morning to discuss the
possibility of asking school
boards to open school even
later than 9 A. M. and deter-
mine what other steps can be
taken to insure youngsters'
safety. The governor said he
also would ask the officials to
petition Congress to roll back
the clock so that Florida
won't be out of step with the
rest of the nation.
In listing eight victims,
Christian included a 16-year-
old boy, killed last Jan. 21
while riding his bike to
school, and a 17-year-old girl,
whose car crashed last Jan.
15 in the pre-dawn darkness.

It is bizarre to watch people use the words "restorative justice" to center the need of someone who assaulted someone else. You simply cannot talk about restorative justice in this context without centering his victim.

Talked to Dir Abdi on my way out and asked him to vote No on all 3 options and he said he would. Kim Ellison smiled awkwardly. So we need to work on the rest of the board. The small high schools due to close are particularly devastating.

Calling empathy a "sin" is the literal definition of heresy. I know this doesn't mean much to nonreligious people - and it shouldn't! - but it needs to mean a lot to the folks of faith when we hear it. We need to call tgat shit out, name it as heresy, and defeat it.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but pheasants are not native to north america. They were introduced in 1881 and feral populations spread rapidly. That S.D. chose them as their stare bird doesn't change this fact. Also, Kristi Noem is an idiot.

Amazing how tightly her campaign has Michele Tafoya bubble-wrapped. She was even a media personality! But it’s an indication of how poor her understanding of government is (and how smart a gamble so far that she won’t be vetted if she dummies up).

From the Star Tribune: A conversation with the candidates. The U.S. Senate race is one of Minnesota's biggest contests this fall. I sat down with DFL nominee Peggy Flanagan for a wide-ranging conversation about her campaign, her record as lieutenant governor and the case she is making to voters in the final stretch. Listen to the interview here. We will be doing similar conversations with the top candidates for governor as well. We have reached out to Republican nominee Michele Tafoya's campaign but have not received a response.
