Alan Dershowitz quit the Democratic Party today over Israel policy. Dershowitz was Jeffrey Epstein's attorney. He negotiated the 2008 plea deal that let him serve 13 months for trafficking of minors. Virginia Giuffre accused him of sexual abuse. He denied it. So long, farewell, glad to see you go.

Ossoff: "You were talking earlier about Jared Kushner. The guy leading our diplomacy in the Middle East is bringing in billions from Middle Eastern princes and sheiks and going around the region asking for billions more while he conducts nuclear diplomacy on behalf of the country. It's obscene."
Look at this chart.
Tax cuts for the rich are a policy choice. Cutting the social safety net in exchange for them is a policy choice.
States like New York have an opportunity to help undo this trickle down nonsense by raising taxes on the rich (who will still be rich).
I hope Gov. Hochul does.
Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY) went to bat for President Donald Trump's leadership in the Iran war during a Tuesday MS NOW segment — but anchor Katy Tur refused to relent as she poked holes in his arguments.
Has this dipshit won a single court case?
The GOP entered this redistricting under the rather childish delusion they were going to gerrymander, and nobody would gerrymander them. In TX, MO, and a half dozen other states, they put their rather naive theory into operation. They sowed the wind, and now they are going to reap the whirlwind
A New Jersey data center will reportedly receive $77 million in tax breaks — while only creating one permanent job.
One job, in exchange for higher utility bills, noise pollution, and potential groundwater pollution.
Is it any wonder communities are organizing to stop data centers?
Influenza killed nearly 50k US soldiers (almost the same # as were killed in battle), and sickened a million more in 1918.
30k never even made it to France.
When my grandfather caught it, he went AWOL to stay in a rooming house away from the overwhelmed infirmary.
Yeah that will solve all of our problems…..

GOP - *gerrymanders*
DEMS - hey stop that no fair
GOP - *gerrymanders even more*
DEMS - we mean it we’re gonna sue
SCOTUS - *legalizes gerrymandering completely*
DEMS - *start gerrymandering*
GOP - HEY STOP THAT NO FAIR!!!! 😭
still not over how we have confirmed proof via leaked documents that the SCOTUS shadow docket is a complete farce where the FedSoc justices get to unleash their unbridled political opinions and remake the American legal & economic system however they & their rich friends like
A lawyer for the El Gamal family, that has spent close to a year at an immigration detention center in Texas, demanded the family’s release after a federal magistrate judge found that “requiring them to endure further detention… risks compounding the constitutional violation.”
EIGHT CHILDREN DIED in a mass shooting in Shreveport, Louisiana this weekend.
Eight children.
A critically important reminder from @citizencohn.bsky.social:

People like Pete Hegseth believe that China manufactures the flu as a weapon.
He then tells China, potentially our biggest military enemy, that he is ensuring that US troops *will* be made vulnerable to the flu.
When you're too stupid to reconcile your conspiracy theories.
Texas redistricts without a vote, Republicans cheer.
Dems in Virginia respond by putting it UP FOR A VOTE OF THE PEOPLE, it passes, Republican cry foul.
Oh well. Good job Virginia!!
So much false equivalence in media on gerrymandering in Texas vs California & Virginia. California and Virginia maps approved by the voters. That's a huge difference not enough people pointing out

Congratulations, Virginia! Republicans are trying to tilt the midterm elections in their favor, but they haven’t done it yet. Thanks for showing us what it looks like to stand up for our democracy and fight back.
That would be the goal of Blanche and those white supremacist groups he and the administration seem to align with on a regular basis.
Jeopardize any infiltration that might expose the truth.
Plus this is a good for a three-day distraction from the Epstein files.
So many billions of taxpayer dollars spent on hurting democrats and still no Healthcare plan and no Epstein files.
FUCK THE GOP!

This is your reminder that it's been ten months since the assassination of Melissa Hortman, her husband and her dog, and there hasn't been even a hint of justice for her family, friends or colleagues.
I am begging every Senate Democrat to vote against confirmation of this clown. Take a stand. Don't try to triangulate. This is an easy call.
