We have to Stop Trump. That’s it. No more crack-pot genocidal threats. No fucking ballroom. No fucking arch de Trump. No more disgusting pardons issued. He must be removed from office.

Free universal healthcare. Progressive and equitable taxation. Estate taxes. Right to abortion. Fix the 2nd Amdt: no more Sandy Hooks. Zero gerrymandering; use independent commissions. Fumigate SCOTUS: 13 judges required + term limits. Enough for Sunday night before bed.

Dudes. As a society we taught young women to walk with keys between their fingers in dark parking lots and to carry pepper spray in their purse. So yes. I’m asking you to be responsible for the actions of other men. After all, that’s what you’ve asked of women for centuries. It’s your turn.

EU: The European Union will require sale of mobile phones with “user-replaceable and longer-lasting batteries” starting in 2027. The regulation demands “availability of spare parts and manuals for 10 years to curb planned obsolescence”.

Sneaky move "The sanctions repeal was inserted into the must-pass piece of legislation that authorizes nearly $1 trillion in annual Pentagon spending, two pages inside a 1,260-page law."

What you have to understand is that the United States started a war, almost immediately lost it, then began the laborious process of negotiating against itself, and is now settling into the secondary denial phase …

MAGA-controlled states are taking unprecedented step of redrawing congressional maps to rig the midterm elections. Virginians face a real risk of having their voices diminished. If nothing is done a minority of voters could elect majority of U.S. House. Free & fair elections are under threat.

Raskin’s bill creates the fitness panel the 25th Amendment calls for. One panel + VP (not the full Cabinet) = real path to remove an unfit President. Johnson will try to kill it because Trump doesn’t want it. So let’s force the fight! Tell Congress to get behind this bill now:

For over 60 years, US policy toward Cuba hasn’t been about “freedom”—it’s been about punishment for defiance. Sanctions, isolation, pressure—all to force regime change. The real story is an effort to dictate how developing countries pursue development—so it serves US economic interests.

NEW: Virginia just passed a law to join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, giving it 222 of 270 electoral votes needed to activate. This map and spreadsheet show which states could join to activate it by 2028 depending on the outcome of the 2026 elections docs.google.com/spreadsheets...
Electoral College cartogram showing which states are in the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact and which ones could join in time for it to activate by 2028. Each state is sized and labeled according to its number of electoral votes. The states are spaced out enough to accommodate the changes in size but retain their general shapes and relative positions on the map.

Current members are in solid orange, potential members are in light green, and nonmembers that are unlikely to join are in medium gray. Members have 222 electoral votes, potential states have 68, and the unlikely states have 248. The compact would only activate once states with at least 270 electoral votes have joined.

The seven potential members and their electoral vote are Alaska (3), Arizona (11), Michigan (15), Nevada (6), New Hampshire (4), Pennsylvania (19), and Wisconsin (10). Democrats would need to gain the governor's office and/or legislative chambers to win unified power in these states, as detailed in the spreadsheet linked in this post.

Amazon, which saved $4B in taxes under Trump's Big Ugly Bill, has cut 30,000 jobs since last October. Verizon, which saved $2B, plans to cut 15,000 jobs this year. Meta, which saved $3B, plans to lay off 20% or more of its workforce. Trickle-down economics is a cruel joke.
