Three ER visits. 20 hours of suffering. Two ultrasounds to prove a fetus had died. Nevaeh Crain was 18. Texas law killed her. Abortion bans chilled doctors into inaction. Now she’s gone.

NEW: Minnesota’s graduation rate just reached the highest level on record.

Two years ago, we made the single-largest investment in public schools in state history.
 
Today, we’re seeing the results.

Breast cancer diagnoses rose by over 300% between 1973 and 1992.

Was there a breast cancer epidemic?!

NO.

Mammograms were implemented for screening in 1976.

PREVALENCE is a function of being able to correctly diagnose something.

This is also about autism.

My first apartment in 1994 was $350/month. Adjusting for inflation, that apartment should now rent for $744/month.

It actually rents for $1500. Greed and inflation are hurting the kids, not their Starbucks lattes.

Yes, tariffs are a tax, but people don't mention often enough that they are a regressive tax. Taxes on consumer goods tax the poor at a higher rate, as basic necessities are a much larger part of their spending.

If food goes up by 20%, it is a tax on the poor. Rich people won't even notice.

Even if you think Paul Weiss and Columbia made the only choice available to them in the circumstances (and that's not what I think, to be clear), you have to recognize that there's no future for our democracy if every powerful institution approaches official extortion in this way.

Elon’s dark money backs a far-right extremist who threatens reproductive freedom and democracy. Judge Susan Crawford defends abortion rights, fair elections, and equal justice.
She’s the real deal.
Let’s keep Wisconsin’s court independent. #Wisconsin

Elon Musk is so desperate to control Wisconsin’s Supreme Court, he’s funding fake ads pretending to support Judge Susan Crawford — just to turn voters against her with phony “progressive” messages filled with misleading lies.
Don’t fall for it.

He told 33,000+ lies in his first term.

Since math is not my strongest subject, can someone more capable please figure how many lies-per-day that averages?

There's a reason why they're freaking out over what's happening to Tesla.

It's working.

There's a reason they're threatening absurd consequences.

They need to scare you back into civility and compliance.

As long as we're reluctant to cross the lines they ignore daily, they have the upper hand.
