The United States is the only developed country in the world where mass shootings continue to be a constant problem.
Republicans need to finally stand up to the gun lobby and join Democrats to pass real gun safety reforms that can save countless lives.

The endgame here is getting the Supreme Court to declare that the entire civil service system is unconstitutional. Which is to say, this administration does not want us to be a modern, efficient, globally competitive nation-state.
Supreme Court Poised to Vastly Expand Presidential Power, Again
The 90-year-old precedent protecting independent agencies is likely on its way out.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%
Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%
Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.
As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

I would find this more convincing if I had literally one other example ever from history of a man who had visible hand injuries from shaking too many other hands.
Q: Can you explain what's going on with the bandages on Trump's hand?
LEAVITT: We've given you an explanation. The president is literally constantly shaking hands.

From a big redistricting defeat for Trump in Indiana to Democratic victories across Florida, Georgia, and Iowa, it’s been a big week for Democrats. Add Trump’s falling approval and another failed attempt to re-indict NY AG Tish James, and we’ve all got reasons to celebrate.
Our Wins Of The Week
In a major defeat for Donald Trump, the Republican supermajority in the Indiana state Senate rejected redrawn congressional maps that would have given Republicans two more seats in the U.S.

This is getting lost: For weeks Trump officials had the option to remove Abrego Garcia to Costa Rica, but refused to do so. Instead they kept trying to send him somewhere more dangerous. Costa Rica wasn't cruel and dehumanizing enough.
This is deeply sick conduct.
