The Hormuz situation seems so so bad, like gonna-destabilize-half-the-globe-and-tank-the-economy bad, with no obvious resolution even plausible, and it’s still getting the “distant crisis mostly of interest to nerds that will work itself out” treatment in American press
This is HUGE.
The news here of course is that a whopping 28% of Conservative voters back rejoining the EU
**AND** 11% of Reform voters.
That reflects why I’m hearing too. Thanks @europeanmovement.co.uk

The smile of the woman in the background is a nice finishing touch.
Tonight was a repudiation of overreach from this admin and Congress. On the only two redistricting efforts that went to the people, and not powered through a rigged legislature, people voted for fairness. Virginia voters turned out to protect our democracy.

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
Spent Saturday with President Obama and New York's Cutest — turns out my first name is Mayor and I need to be doing more squats.
Here’s to building a City where families can thrive and every classroom is full of this much joy.
Hoo boy, that was a tough listen. Two women in a department store, browsing racks right next to me, discussing 'immigrants'. I had to walk away when one said '...and you know what? We'll never get them all out of here either'.
There's just no helping some people. 🙄 #Its2026
Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker has signed an executive order banning state employees from using insider info to bet on prediction market apps like Kalshi and Polymarket, warning the unregulated boom “opens the door to insider trading and abuse.”
Let's be clear: The Trump Admin's vendetta against the SPLC is a sign of how impactful their work is.
The SPLC has been at the forefront of exposing some of America's most notorious hate groups, like the KKK. The fact that the Trump Admin feels threatened by that speaks volumes.
OK, if you were Apple CEO for a day, what product would you greenlight, no backsies?
This is a war based on lies
Seems to me like Trump is desperately begging Iran to sign a replica of the Obama JCPOA he tore up. All for the low low price of thousands dead, global instability, high energy prices, and a toll on ships through the once-free strait of Hormuz.
My online courses are full of students using AI. Yet I’m forced to continue offering them by the dean; otherwise we face financial doom. In less than 4 years AI has destroyed education and transformed my vocation from a life-giving source of care + creativity into a continual source of moral injury.
I am in Barcelona today to help unite progressive parties from around the world in a defense of democracy and a war against corruption. A first of its kind event. Necessary to beat back the forces of fascism.
If you ask me, Sen. Jon Ossoff is sounding more and more like a potential 2028 presidential candidate.
Peace, but only during trading hours
my conspiracy theory is wall street is doing everything it can to keep everything from collapsing until dems take the house and senate so they can blame the implosion on them
"These days, I’m feeling more aligned with Catholicism than I have since my first communion. I’m not alone in that," writes @sulliview.bsky.social.
Beshear: He said, “I thought that I was being depicted as a doctor.” If I was ever in an operating room and somebody walked in in Jesus robes with orbs in his hand, I would have thought that it did not go well for me that day.
I'm helping to lead a group of Senate Democrats who are planning to force a vote - every single week the Senate is in session - to end the war in Iran. We have that right under the Senate rules, and we are going to keep putting Republicans on record supporting this insane war.
"This was the point when Romney forged a partnership with Ted Kennedy, the iconic liberal Democratic senator from Massachusetts. It would be difficult to exaggerate how unlikely a pair they made." A different world:
Nearly 100 antiwar protesters led by Jewish Voice for Peace were arrested Monday outside the offices of Senate Democrats Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand while attempting to stage a sit-in.
If the Pope weren’t so weak on crime he’d get in that Popemobile and start pullin’ folks over.
And then he doubled down and said he thought it depicted him as a doctor!!! 🤣🤣
Anti-Israel jews in New York to protest the death penalty law approved by the murderous Israeli regime for Palestinians.
During the protest, Israeli Zionists verbally abused jews with antisemitic remarks.
Never thought I’d see this day coming.😲
“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.”
I spent 16, SIXTEEN years fighting this crap.
I can’t believe it 😭
Hungary has chosen Europe.
Europe has always chosen Hungary.
A country reclaims its European path.
The Union grows stronger.
The Pope is weak on crime, lol, wtf does he think the pope is
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.
