If a man was at a party with a dozen women and he got so intoxicated that he couldn't function, he'd be about as safe as anyone could be because 99 times out of 100 the women would look after him and see that he got home safely.

Paid sick leave doesn't exist, including for #cancer patients like me. #MitchMcConnell took 92 PAID days off (and frankly continues to), directly benefiting from a policy he denies the rest of us. Meanwhile I'm teaching 5th grade every day so I don't lose benefits & income. Please help & SHARE! ❤️

With this monopolized media empire comes not just size but unprecedented power. The power to throw workers under the bus. The power to price-gouge because consumers have few alternatives. The power to decide which stories get told, but more importantly, which stories DON'T get told.

Remember this is why we need Democrats to take back power in DC so that they can stop some of these cuts that take effect after the election. #LetsGetVoteReady by checking your voter registration status, vote early and vote all the way down the ballot. Your vote is your voice so use it.

How much does it cost to get more information about a cop who punched someone in the face? If you guessed anything lower than $2.5 million, you’d be wrong — at least according to the city of Eugene, Oregon. buff.ly/AlxYU8S

Sort of insane fact about how broken US urban planning is—America now spends more building *just the lights for roads and highways* than on all subways & ground mass transit combined Spending on roadway *pavement* is 18x transit spending

Alito said the court's job is to interpret the Constitution "as best we can" and apply it to the cases that come before them: "We are not part of any political movement. And we are not attempting to further any political agenda.""

Subverting democracy isn't new to John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, or Amy Coney Barrett. All three were on George W. Bush's "Florida Recount Team," which lay the groundwork for stopping vote counting in Florida—and Bush v. Gore, the politically-motivated SCOTUS decision that gave Bush the election.

Here's your reminder that border czar Tom Homan, who is terrorizing hard-working immigrants, took $50,000 in an FBI bribery sting. The Trump regime killed the probe, and there’s no indication that Homan paid the money back to the taxpayers – or even paid taxes on the "income."

ms.now

Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump's DOJ shut it down.

The FBI and Justice officials closed the investigation, which a Justice Department appointee had called a “deep state” probe in early 2025.
