Talarico on how his diabetes diagnosis moved him to tackle Big Pharma: "When I got elected to the State House, I brought Democrats and Republicans together to pass the first-ever cap on insulin copays in our state's history. We took it from $684 to $25 per prescription."

The deployment of the National Guard in DC is illegal. We are back in court this morning arguing against the continued presence of thousands of armed troops in our city. We're staying in this fight because the US military should not be policing American citizens anywhere in America — including DC.

I and others have made the observation that if you are not a current or former DC resident it's difficult to fathom the emotional toll the physical destruction of our city has been going through. And the ever present thought that even worse is to come.

*so important*: if you’re voting by mail, assume the USPS will delay because it’s its policy. You can: —put it in drop box —go to counter to watch them postmark in front of you —if you’re dropping it in a mailbox, do it VERY EARLY.

My block stays as close to immaculate as a city block can because of many caring neighbors who regularly pick up trash, but there are some blocks nearby that just look like no one cares. Especially sad is the fire station. I thought those people cared about keeping things clean and shiny.

A screengrab of a post from X. Text reads: "@AOC: “If we want a Congress that actually fights for working people, we must take back the House in November. That is why I am endorsing Tom Perriello for Congress in Virginia’s 5th District. I would be proud to fight alongside Tom to rid Washington of corruption."

"Pennsylvania’s Measles Outbreak Is Enormous". Indeed it is. Given 4 _reported_ deaths from measles and given a 0.1% - 0.3% CFR, the true number of cases - currently reported at 731 - is likely a couple/few thousand. That is big - and 100% vaccine preventable. www.theatlantic.com/health/2026/...

Important: the USPS rule that SCOTUS blocked tonight was Trump’s big plan to control and restrict mail voting. But a separate policy remains in place: USPS is no longer postmarking mail as soon it gets it, which is hugely important for deadlines. So people must mail back with plenty of time.
