Hudson Valley NY Liberal Democrat. NO DMs, NO CRYPTO, NO MAGATS
Except, of course, it’s *not* all he can say.

Cassidy could concede publicly that confirming Kennedy was a tragic mistake. He could call for RFK Jr's resignation. He could schedule hearings, haul the secretary to Capitol Hill, and demand the CDC’s public resources reflect the scientific cannon.
TAPPER: You were the deciding vote that allowed RFK Jr to ascend to the role of Health Secretary. Did you give him too much credit?

CASSIDY: The fact is the scientific community agrees that vaccines are safe. That's all I can say.

Lauren is right. #mustRead

“The idea of an Epstein class is helpful because one can be misled by the range of people to whom Mr. Epstein ingratiated himself. Republicans. Democrats. Businesspeople. Diplomats. Philanthropists. Healers. Professors. Royals. Superlawyers.”
If you read just one thing today, make it this. Also, David Brooks is an idiot.

TRUMP IS HIRING PRIVATE AI COMPANIES TO DECIDE WHETHER OR NOT YOU'LL GET MEDICARE COVERAGE FOR THE PROCEDURE YOU NEED, AS PRESCRIBED BY YOUR DOCTOR. WE TOLD YOU THAT REPUBLICANS WOULD START TO PRIVATIZE MEDICARE.

Senator Lisa Murkowski cut a deal with Trump to exempt her state, Alaska, from the SNAP cuts. So, if you're a MAGA Alaskan who relies on SNAP, you'll be OK. But, your grandma in Alabama is screwed.

Trump's so-called "Big Beautiful Bill" will screw the working class and poor. Take 5 minutes to read just how bad this bill is, then call your reps in Congress to tell them to VOTE NO!

Brad Lander for mayor of NY!
If I was a New Yorker I’d vote Lander.

Anyone but Cuomo. Can’t believe he’s even on the ballot

I believe in you, New York. Please do the right thing
Brad Lander has done a lot for NY and he's got the expertise to do a whole lot more. Let's not screw this up again.

Soread the word!
Republicans are trying to kick millions off Obamacare!
This, coupled with their proposed cuts to Medicaid prove that Trump Republicans want poor people to DIE.

A great piece about the music in SINNERS, the best film I've seen in a long, long time. I'm expecting OSCAR noms for score and sound mixing, and maybe a whole lot more.
