HUGE WIN! H.R. 1897 the bill that would have gutted Endangered Species Act protections for threatened and endangered species has been pulled from today’s House floor vote. Your calls and pressure worked. Thank you for speaking up.
You ever try to code switch at work and fail? 😂

Tim Miller: "The government wrongfully seizing money from companies and then not giving it back to them because they're threatening the companies, it doesn't really feel like free market capitalism... I think Joe Kernen would call that something else if it was Obama."
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.
We got SaveUSFS.org updated! L.L.Bean has joined the movement to protect the U.S. Forest Service. Welcome to the right side of history.
AOC: Whether it’s people in the Epstein files still roaming free, or the president, a known rapist, continuing to occupy the White House, all of this has contributed to the normalization and the idea that incidents of harassment shouldn’t matter.
And I think today was an important turning point
NEWS: Huge first win for Mayor Mamdani’s tax-the-rich plans in NYC.
Mamdani just secured a deal with Gov. Hochul to create the state’s first-ever tax on $5 million+ second homes owned by ultrawealthy out-of-state residents.
I don't think my day can recover from "I thought it was me as a doctor." Let's call it a wrap.
The Hungarian people wisely refused to listen to these grifting scumbags.

Meet Hungary’s first Prime Minister in 16 years, the newly elected Prime Minister-designate Péter Magyar.
I’m so proud of Hungary. Let’s do America next. 🇭🇺🇺🇸
On the train back home from Warsaw right now, and two Ukrainian women across the carriage from me are absolutely delighted about the Hungarian election result. One is in tears and the other is laughing. This is what it means to get rid of the cynical, kleptocratic prick.
👏 👍 👏 👍 👏 👍 👏 👍 👏 👍 👏 👍 👏 👍
The end of Viktor Orbán’s autocratic regime is a victory not just for Hungary, but for people who value democracy around the world. Congratulations to Tisza, to incoming leader Péter Magyar, and to Hungarians everywhere.
"Orbán’s Hungary has been the model for the global fascist assault on democracy. Maybe it can also serve as a model for its defeat."
Important piece from Jason Stanley for Zeteo on the big story of the day:
BREAKING: Hungary just saw a stunning political shakeup. Opposition leader Péter Magyar says Prime Minister Viktor Orbán personally called to congratulate him on his victory, marking the imminent end to Orbán’s long grip on power.
This week: The lesson we can learn from Hungary, Rep. Swalwell leaves the California Gov race, Pam Bondi won’t be testifying about Epstein this week, and Trump is not well tonight as he attacks Pope Leo and portrays himself as a deity on Truth Social.

President Donald Trump followed a bizarre rant against Pope Leo XIV with an AI-generated image depicting himself as Jesus Christ.
Congratulations to Péter Magyar on a decisive election victory in Hungary.
The Hungarian people have chosen a new path. We are ready to work with you, and our European allies, to deepen our cooperation in trade, defence, and security.
The President needs a mental wellness check.
The Pope is WEAK on crime is so gd funny; I am HOWLING
CHRISTINA KOCH GREETING HER DOG AFTER RETURNING FROM THE MOON IM GONNA CRYYY 😭😭😭
Victor Orbán’s removal sends a timely signal.
Corrupt kleptocratic Christian nationalism was on the ballot in Hungary today — just as it will be on the ballots that Americans will cast in November.
It was repudiated abroad — may it be repudiated here in November (and beyond).
May Victor Orbán simply be the first in a string of countries engaging in overdue housecleaning by kicking their authoritarian leaders to the curb.
The victory of the opposition in Hungary yesterday, like the Polish election in 2023, is a victory for democracy, not just in Europe but around the world.
I love this photo of astronaut Christina Koch looking back at Earth from Artemis II.

“'I’ve never experienced anything like this in my entire life,' the congresswoman said, fighting back tears.
"She described the way people were laying down inside as “like sardines.”

Dear G!
How are you?
Nice story about J. E. in New York mag, you look great on the picture. I know you are very busy flying all over the world. How was Palm Beach? I cannot wait to go down. Give me a call when you are back in NY. Have a great time!
Love, Melania
I am not sure why Melania Trump decided to make a statement about Jeffrey Epstein seemingly out of nowhere today, but if the idea was to put the ongoing coverup in the rearview mirror it will backfire spectacularly
