While national politics take center stage, don’t forget to check in with your local politics (state, county, city and school). Local politics has a significant impact in your day to day, and it’s a place where your voice is heard.
Harm reduction saves lives
JUST IN: AG Pam Bondi deletes a post touting a chart as proof of the Trump administration's success in reducing drug overdoses—after being informed the data actually reflected the *Biden* administration’s record.

Dr Brugge, Harvard: "Ultimate goal is to prevent breast cancer. Due to Harvard's anti-DEI & antisemitism policies, NIH abruptly cut millions for research that had identified the earliest precursors in breast cancer." Life saving work now is at risk, while oncology profits soar.

Dear listeners,

When the days feel narrow and the noise gets loud, try a song.
Not as escape — as evidence.
Someone, somewhere, once felt this too and made something that still holds.

If hope is hiding, it often hums first.

How many contradictions are there in these 2 minutes?
Trump: "With respect to the insurance companies, I want to meet. There's essentially 14 of them, 10 big. I want to meet with them and say, 'I want you to cut your rates. Way down. Way way down.' And maybe, if they do that, we'll be able to not cut them out. We'll be able to continue to deal w/them."

Watching I Love LA on HBO as a millennial is making me realize my age. So, is this when one realizes that they’re actually an adult?

ProPublica spoke to about 150 people who had lived in homeless encampments when cities cleared them out in “sweeps.”

We distributed notecards so people could tell us about the toll in their own words.

Zohran Mamdani standing beside the President of the United States just said that the US is funding Israel's genocide and yet can't take care of its own unhoused children on live television.

I never thought I'd see something like that in my lifetime

Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Remember how Trump said ICE targets “violent criminals?”

Trump’s own DOJ now reports that ONLY 2.5% of the people ICE arrested in Chicago have any criminal history.

That means 97.5% have ZERO criminal record. They were targeted because they were of Latino ethnicity. This is what fascism looks like

This is from Autocracy, Inc, about how modern autocratic propaganda works.

I consider this every time I decide what to share and how to frame it.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 85th day out of the last 96.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the #EpsteinFiles

Walz: "They are paying contractors to pay down the East Wing but they're not putting money into the food bank. So if there's a sense of frustration in America, it's very real ... when the White House press secretary said their top priority is the ballroom, we could not disagree more."

Them: You don't look autistic

Me: You don't see it because my autism mostly affects me. I've spent most of my life painstakingly minimizing the impact it has on others... so now it has no effect on you at all, but my life is indescribably more difficult and exhausting

Boredom is an uncomfortable experience for most people, but for people with ADHD it can come on bigger and faster.

To make matters worse, ADHD'ers can feel bored in situations where non-ADHD'ers wouldn't, making battling boredom a much more common battle for us

Instead of focusing on what causes autism, how about create a world where they could thrive? Focus on how to accommodate different learners that’s beneficial to most. Imagine how much neurodivergents can flourish without the barriers to their thinking styles, or the energy spent on social cues.

STEWART: “I feel like I’m watching something so self-evidently inhumane and horrific and to be told I have to shut up because I risk the Jewish state by speaking out? I would say the opposite — they’re putting the likelihood of a surviving Jewish state much more at risk.”
