Did I miss the vote on extending the ACA subsidies that was the hard won triumph that caused a group of Dems to vote to end the shutdown? How did that go?

This is pretty irresponsible. It’s time to deep six Faux News.
NEW REPORT from ProPublica finds that Fox News manufactured riots fit for air, using old footage or footage that was not of Portland, for months leading up to September.

It was so convincing that the network apparently prompted Trump to send federal forces to the Pacific Northwest. trib.al/koDwQMR

Numerous studies, including the Abecedarian Project and the Perry Preschool Project, have shown that children who begin preschool at an early age experience significant benefits in cognitive, academic, and social development. Seems like a program you’d want funded.

When addressing the climate crisis, the focus often centers only on carbon dioxide emissions and methane.

Yet, nitrous oxide is 300 times more potent and remains active in the atmosphere for more than 100 years.

About 1/6 of the total population of Serbia protested government malfeasance today. In the US that would be more than fifty million people.

The way people act like they won’t actually cut Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security gives similar vibes to when they acted like they wouldn’t actually overturn Roe

Day 3 at UrbanShift Africa Forum and the message is clear: we must achieve clean air for all.

@worldresources.bsky.social research shows air pollution costs African economies $445bn per year, a number which will rise significantly without action.

The Supreme Court decision should have been 9-0. The fact it was 5-4 reveals how utterly compromised the bench is in favor of right-wing authoritarianism.

“come back to the table in gratitude”

Just thinking about the times that Netanyahu, who leads a country that is the largest recipient of U.S. aid under Dem and Republican presidents, has been invited by Republicans expressly to scold & embarrass Dem presidents.

No leader should need to grovel.

No one wants a paper trail because spending funds Congress has not appropriated is colloquially known as “stealing from the US Treasury.”

I’ve always been skeptical of folks who say Trump is a literal ‘Russian asset’ or that Moscow has ‘kompromat’ on him, and the Russia obsession hurt the Dems in term one… but… how does anyone explain this? Justify this? How?

A reminder that Ukraine was once the third largest nuclear power in the world and voluntarily gave up those weapons. In exchange, the U.S., the U.K. and Russia guaranteed Ukraine's security in a 1994 agreement known as the Budapest Memorandum.

Why Ukraine gave up its nuclear weapons — and what that means in an invasion by Russia
Three decades ago, the newly independent country of Ukraine was briefly the third-largest nuclear power in the world. A lot has changed since then.

Trump berates Zelensky, the leader of a democratic country courageously fighting Russian imperialism, while he allies himself with Putin, a dictator who started the bloodiest European war in 80 years.

Sorry, President Trump. We believe in democracy, not authoritarianism.
