When you think it can’t get more sinister and terrifying, it does. Without these data, we will be so unmoored.

RFK has to be stopped, and he still can be. Impeach or fire, now
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), run by Oz and his boss, RFK Jr., will no longer require physicians to report vaccination rates.

Instead, they plan to start having doctors report if they’ve discussed “alternative” vaccine schedules.

Today, Trump suggested Greenland could be subject to invasion. "We do need Greenland, absolutely," Trump said. "We need it for defense."

He's living a megalomaniac's dream, but an attack on EU & NATO country means the response could actually be *here*.

This is extraordinary, heartbreaking, and a red alert warning sign for our democracy.

These people are about to be federal judges, and they refuse to answer whether the U.S. Capitol was attacked on January 6.

They say they can't comment because it's "a political controversy".
Sen. BLUMENTHAL: Was the U.S. Capitol attacked on January 6, 2021?

Trump nominee: *dodges*

Trump nominee: *dodges*

Trump nominee: Well, individuals entered the Capitol.

Toying with the idea of declaring martial law.

Attacking political opponents and calling for their executions.

Here’s a candidate worthy of the vote & attention of women (& men) in Arkansas.
She’s also a role model for woman who asked “should I run for office.”
YES!
We are already a “safety net” for parents, husbands, kids, schools & our bosses.
Listen to @hallieshoffner.bsky.social!
We need a country that stops using women as the safety net for its failures.

That’s what I’m fighting for. Because when women have support, families stand stronger. Communities get stronger. Arkansas gets stronger.

"This war can be brought to an end, but the basic logic remains what it always was: the Ukrainians have to be supported so that Russia no longer aspires to destroy their country. That is the foundation. Negotiations will work when that has been achieved."
We hear that Putin and Trump (or their emissaries) have been secretly consulting about a settlement to the war. Given the inherent traps of allowing an aggressor to decide the outcome of his war, I try here to give a sense of how negotiations might actually work.

To recap: My law firm represented Black and Latino voters in striking down Texas' new congressional map.

The dissenting opinion mentions George Soros 17 times and me and my law firm 3 times (all about how connected to Soros I allegedly am). I have never seen anything like it.
