A couple of weeks ago, I wrote about Beth Fuller, a 10-year CDC contractor + 25-year public health professional who got DOGE'd and then decided to run for Georgia's state House. She's running as a Dem in a GOP district. She's currently winning. huffpost.com/entry/beth-full…

Always remember the words of Franklin D. Roosevelt: “The ultimate rulers of our democracy are not a President and senators and congressmen and government officials, but the voters of this country."

This is so scary. Please vote Democrat to try and make sure this insanity ends. Senator Chris Murphy: “Some of us have been briefed on the war plan. And while I cannot disclose any details, I can say this: the plan is insane. It will not achieve objectives and will set off a new cycle of escalation.”

Putin joins the First Lady in celebrating the Oleshky truce by slaughtering 14 unsuspecting civilians who were just waiting for their train in Dnipro today. rferl.org/a/oleshky-ukraine-…

Putin effusively praises Musk and says they are in close contact with him as one of their American partners.
🤔 Putin on Elon Musk: Elon Musk is an industrial genius. He has more than 5,000 spacecraft in orbit. We are in close contact with our American partners, including Mr. Musk. It is important to maintain discipline and order in orbit. Both we and our American partners value this, and despite political issues, we work closely together in this field. Elon Musk is a genius, a truly brilliant man.

This is an outstanding response. Please share widely.
Senator Collins, I think you are a little out of touch. This is about a cord of wood — and about Mainers struggling to afford to heat their homes this winter. I know what it’s like to run out of fuel. I’ve lived that struggle. That’s the experience I’ll take to the U.S. Senate. And I’ll use it to fight for working people.

Many thanks to @ajkeen for a fantastic interview on my new book, An Inconvenient Woman!
Martin Luther King drove Lillian Smith home from dinner and was pulled over. The ticket led to probation, the probation to prison, and the prison to the phone call that helped Kennedy win. Keri Leigh Merritt tells the story. Full episode: Keen On America — keenon.substack.com

This is like the epigraph for the entire Trump 2.0 presidency: ‘’I don’t give a damn. We’re making a fortune’
TRUMP on HIGH GAS PRICES: We’re making money like we’ve never made before. They’ll say: President Trump is bragging about all the money they're making while people are suffering at the pump. I don’t give a damn. We’re making a freaking fortune.

Allow me to put the vile Vivek Ramaswamy ad into perspective. This is Mike Caruso, GOP politician in Florida. He was arrested for molesting his grandson. He stuck his penis in his 3 year old grandson’s mouth and urinated. Vivek and JD Vance support Mike Caruso.

Musk's super PACs have now spent over $400 million to buy the midterm elections. This campaign is not just about Democrats vs. Republicans. It’s about whether the world’s first trillionaire can buy our government. Say NO to Musk. Say NO to oligarchy. Say yes to democracy.

First tanker with 40,000 t of Russian diesel sails for the US tomorrow. That's under 2 hours of US diesel demand.
In the ~3 weeks it takes to arrive, the US will export 100x more diesel of its own. A rounding error for the market. A sanctions loophole for the Kremlin.

Trump has thrown in the towel, given up. He no longer wants to pretend to be President. His speeches are rehashed nonsense. He just wants to talk about vanity projects. He lets his mind wander, in public, to homoerotic fantasies. He isn’t hiding his allegiance to Putin and his abandonment of America and her friends. His scams are all exposed. He is a sick, tired, old queen who can’t keep the mask on. But, he’s still very dangerous because the more he can hurt others, the better he feels.

The court records speak for themselves. Vivek Ramaswamy’s ad is disgusting—there is no lie, no scam, and no shameful act too low for him.
.@VivekGRamaswamy campaign responds:
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Donna Arthur lost custody of Amy Acton at age 12 after Acton's stepfather was charged with raping her. Arthur stayed married to him until his death. Acton and her brother have been estranged since. Multiple outlets cite 1978 court records of the charges. actonforgovernor.com/dr-amy-actons-… dispatch.com/story/news/pol…

Trump is betraying our troops and our country. Here, our new Russian partner declares that Iran's determination to kill and maim American troops and wreck our economy is "just."
Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov: “I am convinced that Iran’s cause, like Russia’s, is just.”
