They survived an Iran war drone attack. Six months later, they’re struggling to get care.
The War Horse reports that soldiers wounded in an attack by Iran have faced months of delayed appointments, referrals and battles to receive treatment.

Once again polls way off base in Michigan. What gives? Reminds me of the 2020 Maine race where the Dem challenger was like 12 points ahead and lost by like 10 points to Collins.

@moneypowerpolitics.bsky.social it’s been reported in multiple outlets that even if Blanche is not approved as AG he can stay in the acting role through the end of Trump’s presidency. Any talk of his confirmation hearing should include that caveat.

It has been criminally underreported but Kelsey Pfendler has just rowed solo across the Pacific Ocean from the US coast to Hawaii in record time. A 2,400-mile unsupported journey in 43 days, 17 hours, and 55 minutes. Notably beating the Men’s record by 9 whole days.

Jim Messina just said on MSNOW Ken Martin is a great guy 😳. No, he is not. After the midterms he needs to be fired. Ben Wikler should have been selected. I hope he is still interested.

This is exactly why language matters: “women were given the vote” frames equality as a gift from men, instead of hard won political power extracted through organized resistance. Nobody gave women anything. Women fought, marched, strategized, endured violence, went to prison and died for it.

Trump got 20 minutes on national TV. He spent them lying about Gold Star Families, begging allies, and asking Americans not to hold him accountable in November. That is the speech. Hold the line in 2026. #Veterans #GoldStarFamilies #2026

So far the tally puts todays protests at the largest in US history. As more and more numbers are verified, I'd say the total will be well over 10,000,000 strong.
