Jasmine Crockett: “Did Trump’s DOJ really think dropping hundreds of blacked out pages counted as complying with the law—

I know it’s a bunch of unqualified folks with no backbone over there, but this is next level”

Shelf-browsing is powerful and enlightening!
Today, I went to the library to look for a specific kind of book about a specific topic. On the same shelf, I found a *different* book on a *different* aspect of the same topic---an aspect I didn't even know existed.

I went with the 2nd book.

Maria Shriver never says anything negative about anyone at any time ever.
But even she couldn’t let what Trump said about Reiner just slide.
If you don’t think that what Trump said was disgraceful. You are likely a disgraceful person.

So many of us loved Rob Reiner's movies. He left such a profound impact on so many.

What an absolutely black-hearted and despicable statement from the President of the United States about a man who was just murdered. Trump is deeply unwell and unfit to serve.

Pam Bondi and Pete Hegseth appear to be in a fierce contest to prove who is The Most Incompetent.

Alas, their time is wasted, as their boss, Donald J. Trump, will always win that contest.

Texas, where they want to force the teaching of things that don't exist—like a snake chatting up someone called "Eve"—and ban the teaching of things that do exist—like race and gender. Christian Nationalism is toxic.

Got a spam text from the Bruce Harrell (worth over $15,000,000) campaign criticizing Katie Wilson (might make up to $100,000 per year) for accepting money from her parents to help pay for her $2,200 per month childcare. What a jerk.

Sen. Patty Murray (D-Wash.), top Dem on the Senate health committee, on this evening's chaos at CDC:

“We cannot let RFK Jr. burn what’s left of the CDC and our other critical health agencies to the ground—he must be fired."

Seattle just renewed its Democracy Voucher Program!

This trailblazing small-dollar donor financing system is showing the nation how to take power from wealthy donors and return it to the people. A major win for grassroots democracy!
