Especially if you live in Texas, check your voter registration status NOW — but everyone should be doing it. Republicans are desperate to hold onto power, and they’ll cheat and suppress the vote to do so. Don’t assume you’re registered just because you’ve voted before. Check. Verify. Be vigilant.

Incredible. When E—n M—k & his crew obliterated USAID in a weekend, they deleted a vast trove of publicly-funded knowledge: the Development Experience Clearinghouse. A Canadian high school student (!) happened to have downloaded the entire thing for a project. AidData has now posted it for all.

Before reimagining development data, remember what we’ve learned
Why we’re publishing a free, searchable, and ungated archive featuring a quarter-century of USAID evaluation reports.

I worked for New York’s largest medical center at the start of the pandemic. There were morgue trucks on the streets. They set up emergency medical tents in Central Park. Healthcare worker colleagues died. It is horrific that RFK Jr is on national TV lying that ICUs were empty.

When it inevitably comes out that McConnell hasn’t been conscious since his collapse on June 14, let’s all remember that the Senate Majority Leader and Whip said they’d talked to him the day after he got CPR and that he was “engaged” (both of them used that exact word!) and would be back soon.
