🚨Trump’s team is plotting to declare a fake "national emergency" to hijack elections.
One operative says they can “take steps without Congress” and mandate state election rules.

At least 7 people were injured and 1 man killed in the latest Russian terrorist attack in Ukraine.
The dozens of children in the kindergarten Russia targeted were luckily moved to a shelter before the strike.

The editors of the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) were apparently fired today.
The precursor to MMWR began in 1878 to address emerging public health threats rapidly.
We are not “great” without it. We are vulnerable to threats from sporadic foodborne illness to bioterrorism.

Unlike his fellow basketball player, Brittney Griner, Jarred Shaw has received scant attention after being arrested for a drugs offence overseas
When Jarred Shaw, an American basketball player in Indonesia, stepped down to the lobby in his apartment complex earlier this year to collect a package containing illegally imported cannabis gummies, he thought that the medicine to ease his Crohn’s disease had arrived.
It had – but so too had 10 undercover police officers. A video on social media shows Shaw, wearing a black T-shirt and shorts, shouting for help as the swarm of officers move to apprehend him.

It is not a coincidence or a historical contingency that the US right is fundamentally based on lies. This is true for all reactionary politics at all times & places. It is intrinsic to reactionary politics.
