Today I wrote about 60 Minutes' decision to obey in advance and why it represents the sad end to the storied franchise.

Jeffries: This is the same group of people who raced back to Washington so they could enact the largest cut to Medicaid in American history.

Phang: I call it the big bullshit bill.

Jeffries: You’re a little more direct than what we’ve been politely calling it—but you ain’t wrong. You ain’t wrong.

Ann Lowe was the Black genius behind Jackie Kennedy’s iconic wedding gown.

Before the fashion world was ready to credit a Black woman’s talent, Lowe was already designing for America’s most powerful families. Brilliant. Bold. Innovative. Undervalued. And nearly erased from history.

Democratic lawyer Marc Elias said his election litigation boutique, Elias Law Firm, has been growing quickly in head count and demand since he launched it four years ago, partly thanks to a surge in litigation over voting rights and redistricting over the last year. www.law.com/newyorklawjo...
Marc Elias' Boutique Sees Rising Demand, Head Count, as Political Litigation Ramps Up| Law.com
The boutique has grown to 62 total attorneys since its founding in 2021, an increase Elias credited largely to redistricting fights at the state level.

Community health centers in Tennessee's 7th district served 109,000 patients last year. Now they're losing millions in funding. These aren't handouts—they're the places where working people go when they can't afford a $200 doctor visit.

As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family.

SEN. KELLY : “They informed me of this in a tweet because this is not about the law. This is about the media cycle, and intimidation… We basically repeated the uniform code of military justice, and they're saying that's in violation of it. It's absurd. Comical.”

Beyond lazy edit of our NO KINGS DAY 2 in DTLA. One of my highlights was getting a hug from @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social while I was in my banana costume. Sadly, there is no photo evidence. 😹

It is amazing that the lawyers for Texas tasked with defending Texas' racial gerrymander are essentially throwing both DOJ and the Governor under the bus.

When you have a media that reports your claims without scrutiny or follow up, claims are as good as facts.

Franca Viola, a 17-year-old girl from Sicily who simply said "no," and was kidnapped and raped for that, helped change the laws of an entire nation.

This is #feminism.

Trailer of a movie about her:

#GirlPower
#RadicalWomen
In 1965, Franca Viola a 17-year-old girl from Sicily who simply said "no," helped change the law of an entire nation. When she ended a relationship with Filippo Melodia, a man with mafia connections, he didn't accept rejection. On December 26, 1965, Melodia and a group of armed men stormed her family's home, beat her mother, and abducted her and her eight-year-old brother Mariano, who tried desperately to protect his sister. Mariano was released. Franca was not. For eight days, she was held captive. Raped. Terrorized. And constantly pressured to agree to marry her attacker. Because in 1965 Italy, Article 544 of the Italian Penal Code allowed a rapist to escape all punishment if he married his victim. It was called "matrimonio riparatore"—rehabilitating marriage. The idea was that marriage would "restore" the woman's honor, which had been destroyed by the rape. 1965 was the year the Beatles released "Yesterday"; the year America sent troops to Vietnam. In modern Italy, rape victims were expected to marry their rapists or live as damaged, unmarriageable outcasts. When Franca was finally released after eight days, and with her father's support, she refused to marry Filippo Melodia. Instead, she did something unprecedented: she pressed charges. She took him to court. The backlash was immediate and brutal. Her family was shunned. Their fields were set on fire. Their name became synonymous with dishonor. But Franca didn't back down. The trial became a national sensation. For the first time, Italians across the country had to confront the horror of a law that protected rapists and punished victims. Newspapers covered every detail. In 1966, Filippo Melodia was convicted and sentenced to eleven years in prison. Franca Viola became the first woman in Italian history to publicly refuse "rehabilitating marriage" and successfully prosecute her rapist. The cultural shift was seismic. Italy's President Giuseppe Saragat received her. Pope Paul VI—the Pope himself—met with her,…

Canada opened its first ever FREE GROCERY STORE 🎯

The food banks new community hub looks like a regular supermarket, but it’s all free! (Through donations and volunteering)

What a great idea America! NOBODY should go hungry!
Canada opened its first-ever grocery store where families in need can shop with dignity and take home up to $200 worth of groceries every 2 weeks.

State legislative leaders just took the first step toward giving Californians a chance to fight back against Donald Trump's election rigging attempts.

If Texas Republicans obey Trump's demands, voters will take up Proposition 50 on Nov. 4th.
