It's almost like putting a quack anti-vaccine conspiracy theorist in charge of the nation's health policy has consequences. "The United States has now had more measles deaths in the past two years than we have had in the previous three decades combined...": www.ms.now/news/pennsyl...

Pennsylvania’s measles outbreak is the largest in decades in the U.S.
The state has surpassed 1,000 measles cases this year, health officials said Monday, making it the largest outbreak in the U.S. in more than three decades.

Black text on white background 
"This day is profoundly painful for so many New Yorkers. It marks three years since the horrific war crimes of October 7. On that day, Hamas killed more than 1,100 Israelis and abducted 251 others. We grieve alongside our many friends and neighbors who still carry that unthinkable loss.
 
The suffering did not begin nor end that day. It instead continued through the Israeli government’s devastating, ongoing genocide in Gaza, in which it has killed more than 74,000 Palestinians—including more than 21,000 children. Even since the so-called ceasefire, more than 1,400 Palestinians have been killed. That suffering has intensified with every Israeli bomb dropped on ambulances waiting outside hospitals, every drone strike targeting a residential building or journalist, and every shipment of food aid turned away at a border crossing. Many New Yorkers are reckoning with this unbearable grief, and we mourn alongside them – all while knowing that our tax dollars fund these war crimes.
 
Three years later, we must refuse to accept a world in which occupation and apartheid continue, where war crimes are met with impunity, and our federal government continues its complicity with every arms shipment.
 
To honor the dead, we must fight for a world in which every person can live with freedom, safety, and dignity."

Any sweeping systemic change you want to make in the United States has to begin with adding seats to the Supreme Court in 2029. No major reform bill will survive the current court. No civil rights law, no anti-corruption law, no wealth tax, nothing.

Conservatives on the Supreme Court have been diluting Americans’ votes for decades. Let’s dilute theirs. Expand the court in 2029.

Look, I like El-Sayed and I hope he wins. But I'm going to need him, I'm going to need the entire left wing and Democratic party, to do a LOT better on court reform. Because without it there *is no* progressive agenda. My latest in @thenation.com www.thenation.com/article/poli...

The Gaping Hole in El-Sayed’s Progressive Agenda
The Senate nominee has woefully undercooked ideas on Supreme Court reform—and that’s a problem.

Humorous to me how, when a Dem candidate is a centrist, the narrative is about how leftists have to grow up and support them. When the candidate is a leftist, the question is whether they can rally adequate support. So some people are responsible for running a winning campaign, you say? Interesting.

We left Twitter because of the Nazi owner and the Nazi users, @toni.bsky.team. We came to Bluesky to build and support something new free from that rubbish. Be careful what you wish for and be cautious about burning the goodwill of people single-handedly keeping this place alive. You aren’t owed it.

This is a campaign video posted by the Jon Ossoff for Senate in Georgia YouTube account over a year ago. It has garnered only 30,000 views on YouTube. I'm sharing this on BlueSky because I believe it's some of the best Democratic messaging that I've ever seen, and I think it deserves more views.

As Gov. Beshear deliberates on a deeply uncomfortable decision of institutional consequence, in this one instance, he would do well to ask himself: “What would Mitch McConnell do?” Or I suppose he could just give him a call.

Mitch McConnell killed abortion rights leaving American women to bleed out but James Carville can’t say anything mean about his sick friend. And that’s why people are listening to DSA and others.

In 2020, Trump lied before the election, lied after the election and -- when he lost in court -- incited a violent insurrection at the Capitol. Right now, he is lying and losing in court ahead of 2026. He is going to escalate and we need to be ready.

President Trump has no legal authority over elections and is running out of plays, so he has resorted to rehashing old tropes and nothingburgers. The only way his administration's campaign to undermine our elections works is if voters stay home this fall.

So, Mr. Tiny hands claims that there are 1,700 known Iranian sleeper cells in the us. So, Why is ICE wasting time, money, & resources to round up nannies, farm workers, gardeners, daycare workers etc? B/c it wasn't about stopping illegal immigration but about using a fear tactic to stay in power.

I'm far past feeling the need to defend people who celebrate the deaths of ghouls. We live under overt fascism. The regime hunts people in the streets. We are talking about political actors so foul that no moral reconciliation is possible. They can only be defeated. Mourning them is a betrayal.

Mitch McConnell hasn’t been seen or heard from in 25 days in the hospital. Yet he still has a job, still getting paid, and getting unlimited world class healthcare. The man who voted against a living wage, against universal healthcare, and against guaranteed paid leave, is now getting all three.

Credible allegations of sexual assault cannot be ignored. Voters in Maine deserve a choice for US Senate that doesn’t force them to make a moral compromise between sexual violence or corporate servitude.
