Great explainer by Reps @repstansbury.bsky.social and @repangiecraig.bsky.social 💥

@terrainorg.bsky.social - I am way proud to be in Terrain.org today, in my story about a woman whose muse is the Everglades, a world I have loved over the years. www.terrain.org/2025/fiction...
Muse - Terrain.org
What if you don't choose to be a muse? What if the thing you're a muse for disturbs you? Jennifer Bannan's story "Muse" asks these questions and more.

RFK Jr: It's gonna be the biggest infusion of federal dollar into rural healthcare in American history

BERNIE SANDERS: Yeah. You know why? Because you're cutting $150b for rural hospitals, you're putting $50b back. That's not an infusion. That's a loss of $100b.

Recently I inquired about a friend’s family member, asking her if they regretted voting Trump. She scolded me, saying she disliked my impulse to talk down about or shame anyone. I deserved the scold, in part because I’d started the conversation on text, oops. It brought me to reflect - (1/6)

She was a criminal and now they are giving her the honors of an American hero at the same time that the Republicans in the House refuse to hang a plaque honoring the hundreds of Capitol Police that defended them. Just disgusting. thehill.com/policy/defen...

can’t blame Dems for being so intimidated by the scorching charisma, sky high popularity, and really normal vocal cadence that RFK Jr brings to the public square
House Democrats could force a vote on impeaching RFK any time they want. Of course it would fail. But do you want to make an issue of it or not?
This is such a no-brainer that the lack of a coordinated response feels deeply damning. A Democratic leadership team that can't mobilize an instant all-hands-on-deck effort on RFK Jr. isn't a leadership team at all.

The ABC has form in this regard eg "Hundreds of people" when in fact ... "Thousands of people." #GazaGenocide #MarchForHumanity

Why is the Trump administration detaining green card holders without cause, blocking legal counsel, and refusing to tell families where they are?

Will Kim has lived here since he was five. He’s getting his PhD, researching a Lyme disease vaccine at Texas A&M—and ICE disappeared him at SFO.

There are twice as many protests in this year than in 47’s first term, this was the huge time for protests, but now we are seeing so many protests in the Capital and all around the country. He is at the most unpopular ever. Follow and let’s protest

Not sure if anyone noticed, No Kings was a massive non violent, no problem protest. It's because we were out in massive number.

When there are too many people, they have nothing. It's more difficult to stop us when we stand together in large numbers.
