I'm gonna toss in a few more dollars, you too hopefully!
NEW: The Republican National Committee (RNC) is urging the U.S. Supreme Court to dramatically restrict mail-in voting nationwide and asking the justices to rule that ballots arriving after Election Day — even if mailed on time under state law — should not be counted.
Republicans ask Supreme Court to block states from counting legally cast mail ballots
If the Court sides with the RNC, millions of voters who depend on mail-in voting could be disenfranchised.

The facility in Maryland is facing significant pushback from the local government and the citizens. Hopefully, this will become the trend across the nation.

Mortality rates:
Mifepristone: 0.65/100,000
Penicillin 2/100K

Pregnancy in the US: 22/100,000 (some states see rates >60/100K)
More people have died in ICE detention centers already in 2026 than will die from mifepristone all year. These politicians are extremely dangerous to women.

I don't live in Maine but my feeling is that even if someone is willing to look past the reddit comments and the tattoo, platner has handled this all terribly by blaming other people and downplaying what he did. I think that's disqualifying by itself. Also, he worked for BLACKWATER in 2018.

Great framing.
Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

We have the timidity of countless corporate and university GCs to thank for the fact DEI is treated as though it were illegal.
lol gentle reminder that DEI is not illegal. Supporting marginalized groups is not illegal. Anyone reneging on support is making a CHOICE to do so.

If you are a Texan being investigated for your connections to "radical leftist" groups, I am interested in representing you against harassment by Ken Paxton's office.
Citing the “martyrdom” of Charlie Kirk, Texas AG Ken Paxton says his office is pursuing sweeping undercover investigations into “leftist” groups. “To those demented souls who seek to kill, steal, and destroy our country, know this: you cannot hide, you cannot escape, and justice is coming."

They tried to kill this woman because she annoyed them and they are charging because she lived. Her being alive is an assault on them.
