H5N1 is the common one.

If I have any credibility with you from 20 years of reporting on rightwing & fascist movements, please listen when I beg you not to celebrate Charlie Kirk getting shot. Leave aside morality: this isn’t a match in dry grass, it’s a torch. We do not want what this could ignite & we would not win.

“In addition to 35 weapons, agents seized weapon suppressors, helmets, night vision devices, ballistic plates and plate carriers. They also seized military munitions and explosives, such as blasting caps, flashbangs and smoke grenades.”

“America is something else now.”
I dive into the concept of "competitive authoritarianism" in the piece. But the key point is not what specific label to use - but to fully grapple with the fact that America has now crossed into territory that is no longer democratic, not even "flawed" or "in peril." America is something else now.

“Listen to the women, For The People.”
Extraordinary moment — Nancy Pelosi issues a statement calling on Democratic senators to reject the House funding bill, i.e. to defy Chuck Schumer.

"Democratic senators should listen to the women," she says, referring to Murray/DeLauro who want a 1-month stopgap bill instead.

it’s only cloture if it comes from the Clôture region, otherwise it’s just sparkling capitulation

DC voicemails for @murray.senate.gov and @cantwell.senate.gov aren’t full yet, y’all.
Musk has been actively shutting down the government for a while now. A continuing resolution that claims to extend funding but doesn't explicitly block Musk, will not stop this ongoing government shutdown.Ask your Senators to hold out for a CR that *actually* stops the shutdown.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.

Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.

Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.

TODAY is the showdown.

Fascinating thread about something I knew next to nothing about.
I am a former incarcerated firefighter. I served in a California fire camp from 2009 to 2012.

Misinformation is afire on the internet, so here are facts about the prison firefighter program, all in one place.

A thread.
