We're officially live. It's incredibly important to have a real record of how our public servants are behaving and this database will be a powerful tool for researchers, reporters, and ordinary Americans.
1/6 A new standard for public accountability is here. GLOW—Government Lawyers Oversight Watchdog—is officially launching today to hold government lawyers accountable. We're unveiling The Government Lawyers Database at glowlaw.org. #RuleOfLaw #Accountability

I'm crying for a few reasons tonight, but this is a good one. Greg is doing good things here. If I'm reading his matching right, a donation of $4.50 turns into $50. ($41 in per donor matches plus a 1:1 matching). If you've got a fiver in your Venmo that you can share, it can go far.

If you have a Dem senator and you're seeing this right now, CALL THEM RIGHT NOW and tell them NO. If you don't know anyone who would be affected by this, call them for my friend Lisa. She cannot afford insurance without ACA subsidies and without health insurance I'm terrified she will die.
! A key group of Senate Democrats is leaning toward voting for a deal to end the shutdown, provided final details can be worked out like worker protections (Gift link)

(Deal does NOT include an ACA extension.)

if you didn't follow the VA governor race you didn't know that Earle-Sears ran like a billion anti-trans campaign ads and Spanberger didn't flinch or pull a Newsom.

going all-in against trans people is a losing move, especially when the federal government has made harming and killing us a priority.

Republican bloodbath.
Looks like the Dems will pick up 12 seats in the VA House of Delegates, which will go from 51-49 to 63-37 D-R. That's an honestly shocking result.

Can’t stop thinking about all the robber baron fucks that held secret meetings and spent MILLIONS AND MILLIONS in bribes and campaign investments and attack ads and media manipulation trying to tank Mamdani currently having the dawning realization that their money is completely and utterly useless.

Vincent is going to be someone's best friend some day.

He's a timid boy, but once he starts getting pet, he just wants more and more.

Also, he loves other cats! If your house is in need of a 2nd buddy, Vinny would fit right in.
— Vincent keeps being overlooked because of his shy nature. He is still young and he really just needs a consistent routine and a little patience in a calm environment. He has so much love to give!
Vincent & his friends are being fostered in New Jersey. Apply to adopt at crits4cats.petfinder.com !

It's a choice.
Trump is cutting off food benefits from tens of millions of Americans on November 1.

Even with the government shutdown, there’s a contingency fund that can be tapped to ensure families continue to have food. Trump has decided not to do so.

Trump truly doesn’t care about people.

this, but also if you can afford to it’s better to donate money to a food bank since they can stretch a dollar further to buy food than regular people can.

feedingamerica.org is a great resource to find ur local food bank

@zohrankmamdani is a deeply thoughtful human being and we think he would make the best NYC mayor imaginable. We feel this as New Yorkers, as Jews and as human beings who are desperate for kindness, compassion and empathy to be represented in our politics.
