So in 2026, the USPS will no longer process mail as it comes in. It will process mail when they feel like it. So they can deliver a letter or a package a month later. The Convicted FElon is doing this to prevent mail-in voting without outlawing it. He doesn't want the Democrats to win the Midterms.

This exact thing happened with my dad. Luckily my brother who lived close by was there and immediately got me and my other brother on the phone right away since we're in 3 different states. We all had the best conversation, lots of love and emotions. Our dad died the next morning.

When the Mind Returns
Some people with advanced dementia show sudden, brief returns of clarity near the end of life—speaking, remembering, reconnecting. What is terminal lucidity?

He is in denial about taxes and wealth distribution and she called him on it. If this economy continues the way its going many people who are tired of getting nowhere while paying a higher percentage of taxes than the wealthiest people and businesses do there will be changes. Midterms are coming!!!
This is an important exchange. @emmavigeland.bsky.social is right - the government already redistributes wealth from the bottom to the top. Scott Jennings and the billionaires Republicans fight for hope we don’t understand that, and attack any attempt to reverse it as “socialism”

The Trump Admin has repeatedly demonstrated to allies around the globe that US security guarantees mean nothing as long as Trump is president. He won’t even agree to abide by the NATO charter, so how can he be trusted to honor any Ukraine deal.

How to Get Rid of "Citizens United"
We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment. There’s a far simpler way.

Congress has gotten bad at being Congress
It’s impressive how little the GOP managed to get done legislatively despite controlling the White House and both chambers of Congress.

Mike Johnson and John Thune have presided over an unproductive trifecta, despite Republicans running Congress and Trump in the White House.

Don't remain silent when it comes to Putin's lies! He is former KGB and not to be trusted. I stand with 🇺🇦 Ukraine and their continuous fight for freedom!
Zelenskyy calls Russia’s claim of a strike on one of Putin’s residences a “complete fabrication,” a lie designed to sabotage diplomacy, justify more attacks on Kyiv, and excuse Moscow’s refusal to end the war. He warns the world must not stay silent as Russia tries to derail peace.

If you think the Trump-Republican Party's willingness to break the law by not following the Epstein Files Transparancy Act (H.R. 4405) reveals something even more insidious about the fascist authoritarian Trump regime, you'd be correct. 😳👇

I’m extremely concerned by reports the Trump administration destroyed a facility during a covert action in Venezuela.
If this was done without Gang of Eight oversight, it’s a serious violation of federal law and a dangerous escalation that pushes us closer to war: www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...
