It looks like almost all of Swalwell’s support went to Becerra.

This is … very interesting. #CAgov

Pa. court recognizes ‘reproductive autonomy’ as a right, strikes down ban on public funding for abortion In a 4-3 ruling, the Commonwealth Court found that abortion access is a fundamental right guaranteed by the Pennsylvania Constitution.

🚨 MAJOR BREAKING NEWS🚨

The Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania strikes down a law restricting Medicaid from funding abortion, and in doing so recognizes a "reproductive autonomy" as a fundamental right in the state constitution. www.inquirer.com/news/pennsyl...

He could get the nomination. But then what? He's really not viable no matter who runs on the Dem side.

JD Vance Can Forget About 2028 Trump’s unprecedented crush of scandals and outrages will sink him.

It's probably foolish to predict 2028, but history and the facts suggest Vance is doomed. Previous VPs in WH races were dealing with 1 or 2 carry-on bags — not Trump’s enormous cargo-hold of scandals and screw-ups. My latest, at @thecontrarian.bsky.social

This is a rotten deal that the Trump regime has rubber stamped.

State AGs must step in and block it.

Fears of looser standards as the FBI and Justice Department scramble to fill a depleted workforce The FBI and Justice Department are scrambling to rebuild a depleted workforce after a wave of departures over the last year.

Trump’s amazing peace deal is going well. A peace deal the likes of which nobody has ever seen. Best peace deal ever. Nobody thought it was possible.

It’s a mark of how completely normalised the corruption & depravity have become that we barely bat an eyelid at the thought of two *property developers*, one Trump’s nepo baby son-in-law, being sent to represent the USA in peace negotiations with Iran. Sometimes it all hits you afresh.

Syrian Billionaires Needed a Favor in Washington. They Invoked the Trump Name.

Dear CNN, we do separate religion from our government. And as a major outlet, your job is to remind everyone exactly on that.

Perfect.

How the hell has the stock market not learned that Trump just lies? Trump is wishing away the Iran War the way he did Covid. What happens when the market finally has to tell the truth?

@thefarce.org asks and analyzes the disturbing question that's been on my mind for weeks now. It's why I tune out almost everything Trump says, I never expect any market rally to last more than a few days, and I don't see how this war ends anytime soon. thecause.substack.com/p/how-the-he...

The Donald J. Trump Guide to Classic Fairy Tales Has the president failed to learn the lessons of classic cautionary fables—or does he just understand them in his own novel ways?

Grimm and Grimmer: @dgraham.bsky.social has way too much fun coming up with Trump's "novel" takeaways from classic fairy tales. 😂 www.theatlantic.com/newsletters/...
