Hey @cbsnews.com you didn't mention that Dennis Hastert was a pedophile. Is reporting on right wing pedophilia no longer part of your mandate?

Was mountain biking this morning, front wheel slipped off a small bridge and I knocked myself out for a couple of minutes. Fortunately there doesn't appear to be a concussion, but my right shoulder and ribs are pretty sore. 🙄 I cracked my $400 carbon fiber helmet. 😖

We are statistically tied, and this race is moving. The billionaires and corporate bigshots have plenty of money to throw around. We have Texans ready to fight for our water, our privacy, and affordable, safe food. Only organized people can beat organized money. Now is the time to prove it.

They're holding up a major escalation in Iran and a crackdown on abortion until after the midterms to limit political damage. To the extent that the last two years have been a right-wing smash-and-grab operation, the next two will be worse.

Mike Rogers claims he was an assembly line worker. The UAW said that is stretching the truth. • Michigan Advance
Rogers says he built Chrysler vehicles on an assembly line. Records show his work was at an aftermarket facility that modified vehicles after they left the factory.
