It's notable that Sen. Ossoff is pressing this attack in a tight re-election fight in a purple state. The rest of the party needs to pay attention.

A demonstration at the Dilley Concentration Camp in Texas. Children and families have been imprisoned in the concentration camp in Texas for months, and all they’ve experienced is abuse, neglect, mistreatment, undrinkable water and moldy food. #SHUTDOWNDILLEY

These responses remind me of the people who said, "The Democrats and Republicans are no different from Coke and Pepsi, so why vote for Al Gore?"

In 1953 Iran had a functioning democracy. A free press. Seven political parties. Women in universities. Women granted voting rights in municipal councils in 1952. A secular prime minister named Mosaddegh who believed Iran's oil belonged to Iran. The US and Britain decided he had to go.

He is insane.

If any other world leader said this, there would be sanctions and an arrest warrant, not just for him, but for his whole regime.

Is there a way for you guys to frame your frustration with the Democrats in a way that is constructive instead of an invitation to cynicism and disengagement?

Christian nationalists are panicking because religious progressives are thriving (RNS) — Christian nationalists' preferred framing of American politics as 'secular left vs. Christian' is false.

The message of Jesus is in direct opposition to White Christian nationalism.

I'm happy to see that Christian ministers are standing up, and getting the attention for their work for peace and justice.

Seems to me that this cartoon depicts something that was well covered in the New York Times and other mainstream news outlets. Cynicism isn't helpful.

Donald Trump is now just openly bragging about interfering in the media. He's the president. He's running a truck over the first amendment here.

Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"

Our nation is again at war, not because we had to but because the president recklessly chose to.

Now we must recognize who pays the price: not the president and his wealthy allies, but service members and ordinary Americans.

How Police Have Undermined the Promise of Body Cameras Hundreds of millions in taxpayer dollars have been spent on what was sold as a revolution in transparency and accountability. Instead, police departments routinely refuse to release footage — even whe...

Here's story we did, laying it out:

Derek Chauvin had a body-cam not only when he killed George Floyd, but also when he knelt on necks of others, including a 14-year-old. The boy's mother begged, "“Please, please do not kill my son!”

Supervisors ignored it all

New details from Epstein files reveal Lutnick had years-long business tie with sex offender The commerce secretary apparently still hasn't come clean on his connection with Epstein.

A MOTHER JONES SCOOP! New details from Epstein files reveal Lutnick had a years-long business tie with the sex offender. This challenges his claim he had minimal contact with Epstein. The two were involved in a deal for six years, and an email shows they discussed it. @nlanard.bsky.social

I’ve been enjoying this wide-ranging and even-handed book, which tells the story of Diem’s overthrow very well. Ironically, this otherwise-reasonable review ends by replacing Cheever’s nuances, the stuff of tragedy, with old partisan cliches.
