🚨 All eyes are on NC right now. Jefferson Griffin is still trying to throw out your ballot and now we'll see if all 5 Republicans on the state Supreme Court will go along with his last ditch effort to name him the winner even though he lost 2 recounts that showed Justice Riggs beat him by 734 votes.

When people say 'run government like a business,' they mean cut services, raise prices, and pay the CEO 400 times more than the workers.

Yesterday marked the unofficial end to the 118 congress.
And there was something really incredible about watching my feed be flooded with good news for once.
Now more than ever we need to celebrate our wins, and we had a lot of them in the past 24 hours.

Reminder—the sole reason student loans exist is because Reagan was a racist & misogynist who didn't want "undesirables" (women & minorities) to get higher education so he defunded public education & forced privatization—thus canceling student loans is an economic, racial, & gender justice necessity.

We now confront the unprecedented problem of an unelected South African half-trillionaire holding hostage an unstable and vengeful president with a thermonuclear arsenal and a barely Republican (221-214) Congress as the rough beast of tyranny slouches toward Bethlehem. What could possibly go wrong?

I recommend no fewer than 4 copies of any beloved book. A paperback for traveling and lending to friends, an eBook for reading with greasy snack fingers, an audio book so you know how the characters' names are actually pronounced, and a pristine hardcover to be buried with you like a pharaoh

It seems obvious that Senate Democrats are publicly buddying up to Elon Musk in order to get under Trump’s skin, so Trump will get rid of Musk faster. Remember, strategy – not foot stomping – is how you win in politics.

Will Democrats Let the GOP Gut Trans Health Care?
Donald Trump and Republicans may try to ban funding to companies that perform trans health care. Some fear Democrats won't stop them.

This is how to do it, kids: Home insurance is now a climate story. Put it on the front, and put "climate change" at the top. Especially now that deniers will control the federal and state government.

Wow. Pure evil. This is what happens when people abuse power and no one holds them accountable.
For five years, I have been covering what is unquestionably the biggest criminal justice scandal in American history.
Today it ended when the most corrupt cop in history took his life.
But it's not over.
A thread.
