Things you need to know:

Trump’s coming after voting rights via gerrymandering.

Trump’s coming after voting rights via voting machines.

Trump’s coming after voting rights via a new Census.

Trump’s coming after voting rights via ID’s and eligibility.

This is an assault on Democracy.

I’ve been studying the public opinion angle on these topics for a while and I think a huge problem for the VRA right now is that people will not be able to understand

- why race can be used to draw congressional districts

- but it cannot be used for, e.g., college admissions

This is pretty fucking insane. Abbott says he’ll remove any Democrats who don’t show up tomorrow from office.

Trump’s tariff wars mean higher prices for you.

Not one Democrat should vote for Bove. Not one!
@democrats.senate.gov
Don't lose track of other things that are important in all Trump's chaos

Like the fact that his defense lawyer & DOJ hatchet man Emil Bove has a hearing on Wed. in the Senate for a lifetime judicial appointment on the 3rd circuit

From there the next stop could be SCOTUS! Now is the time to fight👇
The Senate must reject Emil Bove's nomination to the federal bench. His reprehensible conduct at the Justice Department disqualifies him from a lifetime appointment as a federal judge.

So…

People seem to think that we’re just done now? We bombed the shit out of three nuclear sites in a country we weren’t at war with, and that’s just… it?

Oh, my sweet summer children.

I compiled some thoughts on the strategic implications of Ukraine’s audacious “Operation Spiderweb”

A lot of folks are talking about the immediate impact, but I wanted to focus on how this strike will reverberate globally.

VANCE: "Our view has been very clear that we don't want a regime change."
 
HEGSETH: "This mission was not and has not been about regime change."

While JD Vance is on the news spin circuit today, claiming the unauthorized bombing of Iran isn’t war, it appears Iran disagrees.

Iran’s response: “Every American is a target”

Cool.

Earlier today we taped tomorrow’s show, and we discussed the potential for the U.S. to bomb Iran. Since taping, the U.S. has carried out several bombings. We’ll have more to say in the future, but for now our piece on Trump and the Iran Deal can help explain what got us here. youtu.be/5xnZ_CeTqyM

I wonder how many people realize that America is now literally at war *solely* because Trump hates black people

Obama signed the Iran Nuclear Deal; Iran stopped enrichment; Trump ended the Deal to spite Obama; he was told enrichment would restart; it did

This is *Trump’s* war
