Congratulations to Democrats in Miami & Georgia! 🗳 💙

Eileen Higgins wins Miami mayoral race, breaking a nearly 30-year GOP hold. She's also the first female to become their mayor!

AND

Georgia Democrat, Eric Gisler, flips a GA state House seat in a district Trump won by 12 points! 🥳

People absolutely care... the ones with low vision who can read Calibri font much more easily than Times New Roman.

This isn't just "oh, it's prettier" it's a deliberate jab at people with a particular disability.
This is such dumb bitch behavior. I'm sorry. Just say you think Times New Roman is prettier. It's a font. You don't have to lie. No one cares. (I like Century Gothic.)
Marco Rubio ordered diplomats to return to using Times New Roman font in official communications, calling his predecessor's decision to adopt Calibri a “wasteful” diversity move

This is disgusting. There’s nothing clever or patriotic about it. It’s cruel, it’s un American, and it tells you everything you need to know about the people who think this is acceptable.

This guy has really played the long game. 🤬
In a memo John Roberts wrote just 4 yrs out of law school, he said the “time may be ripe to reconsider the existence” of independent agencies & bring them back into the executive branch. Now he’s poised to end what he has long called “a constitutional anomaly.”

Some of the suspended clauses apply to all LGBT+ people, not just trans and intersex ones, and many apply to juvenile facilities as well as halfway houses, rehab centers, and mental health facilities. 🤬😭

The Department of Justice instructed prison auditors across the country to simply stop assessing whether facilities are violating laws designed to shield LGBT+ prisoners from sexual abuse

Really struggling to determine which awful Trump administration policy will kill more people

The illicit war brewing with Venezuela, the RFK anti-vaccination CDC panel (which just recommended against Hepatitis B shots for newborns) or stripping away healthcare insurance from millions of Americans
Slotkin: "If there's an idea that we're gonna go start a land war against Venezuela -- and just remember, the military of Venezuela is not comparable to the military of the US -- if we're gonna do that, then that should come to Congress."

According to a new study, members of Congressional leadership perform 47% better in stock market trades than their rank-and-file peers, thanks to access to nonpublic information.

Today would be a great day to ban ALL elected officials from trading stock, don't you think?

ICE has sent more than 600 children into a federal shelter system this year — more than over the previous four years combined.

A federal network of shelters for “unaccompanied” immigrant children is run by the Office of Refugee Resettlement, which operates under DHS.

The # of arrests of ppl w/o criminal convictions has risen 585%; # of arrests of people w/o criminal convictions or charges has increased by 1,200%. ICE could track down ~500k immigrants who they claim have crim convictions & are removable but they prefer easy targets to meet arbitrary arrest quotas

ICE should reprioritize serious public safety threats and be transparent about its arrests going forward.

This is just so awful.
Kamlager-Dove: We also know that DHS has a habit of taking people to hospitals under false names so they cannot be located. This prevents their family members and lawyers from getting to them. And so we want to know: is this what also happened to Vicente?

Sen. Roger Marshall said women are "great shoppers." Which is so true! What they don't be doing, though, is getting reproductive healthcare from their GOP representatives.

Hmm. Ghislaine Maxwell is filing a habeas petition challenging her incarceration PRO SE (no lawyers). I guess even David Markus has his limits? Incidentally, she's worried that the release of the Epstein files would be devastating to her case.

Many Blue states have barriers to voting and insufficient protections at the local level. These states should embrace reforms that will enfranchise voters and provide strong safeguards against election deniers.

Here are seven changes every state could adopt right now, for virtually no cost.

In the personality cult of MAGA would any Cabinet officers be willing to move to invoke the #25thAmendment in the event of a major health episode of the president? In an administration that values loyalty over anything else, not declaring the president incapacitated is the ultimate loyalty test.
It’s time to talk about Donald Trump’s health (again)
The most consequential topic in the world is the simple question: Is the President mentally fit to serve?

Some messages attacked familiar political foes; others were self-congratulatory. Mind-boggling conspiracy theories abounded.

First came reports that Hegseth ordered a killing strike against defenseless men

Followed by Hegseth’s non-denial denial

Then Trump DIDN’T deny it-but said it wasn’t Hegseth

Now Karoline Leavitt ADMITS it-but says Admiral Bradley gave the order
