🦆 Bird flu in WA:
This is the first-ever human case of H5N5 avian influenza. It's been seen in animals before, but never before in people.

It was confirmed in a Grays Harbor County resident that had backyard poultry which may have mingled with wild birds.

One horrific thing to me is that the president- a man who has gotten away with everything including literal murder up to this point- seems extremely nervous about anything regarding Epstein coming out. Like how bad does it have to be

Soon in my inbox: Hello, it's the Democrats! We have decided to capitulate and cooperate with the fascists. Please donate between 5 and 50 dollars so that we can hire a marketing firm to help Republican politicians like us better. If you don't give, we won't be able to let them strip your rights!

Democrats negotiated a plan where a 8 completely safe dems would vote to open and the rest can post “i voted no” thats what all the negotiations were about: how they would explain the optics of the loss. it was never about saving healthcare

Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

If the Dems blink after all of this, for a deal that all but ensures no ACA subsidies in 2026 anyway, then what was the purpose of letting the shutdown go for 40 days in the first place?

Shutting down the government is a big deal. People have been hurt in big ways as a result of the decision. To have that suffering be for nothing—to re-open the government without actually having protected people’s health insurance and economic well-being—is unconscionable.

Looking forward to learning all about how the right should move left to win elections tomorrow. They should maybe dye their hair pink, learn to love pronouns.

This is why Chuck has NO REASON to come back to the table. Let them twist. If you're coming back with wins this big during a shutdown, the people know where their bread is buttered. Don't throw them a lifeline. These aren't tiny margin wins. They're blowouts.

Republicans are currently starving millions of people in order to force Democrats to cooperate in cutting health care for millions of people.

We've gotten so inured to this shit. It's just monstrous, horrific behavior.

nothing will change until we address this
hello the reason this is happening is because a bunch of far-right billionaires have purchased every level of government and are exploiting decades-old fracture lines and a cult of personality to accumulate power and establish themselves as kings

I am far from the first to point it out but, man, Jesus would absolutely *hate* these fuckers.
The crowd at Charlie Kirk’s memorial stands up and cheers when Vice-President JD Vance says:

“I have talked more about Jesus Christ in the past two weeks than I have my entire time in public life.”

Please read this thread!

Turn off the news.
This anti-free speech they're trying is another fire.

2 months from now, it will be put out. Either by it blowing back on them.

Or by lawsuits. Or by the Supreme Court.

BC destroying the constitution won't turn us into a dictatorship, it will embolden Democrats to fight back dirty. 🧵👇🏼
