Every state with a Democratic legislature and Democratic governor could do this right now — they wouldn’t even need to do a ballot initiative. They could do it RIGHT NOW — so please pass it on and spread the word 👇
This is the best political news I’ve seen in a very long time — so please pass it on👇
Each state can limit Citizens United in their own state & they don’t have to wait for other states to do it.

There’s so much pathos in this fragment. A warrior says goodbye to, I think, a parent. Because only this piece survives, we don’t see them, we just see the differing heights of their hands: the warrior grasping his spear, and the unseen figure resting their hand on a stick. Beautiful.

This is why we fund scientists to study things like oyster slobber even if you don’t think it sounds important
⚠️ Chinese researchers have invented bone glue that mimics how oysters stick to surfaces underwater.
The adhesive can reportedly repair orthopedic fractures in 2-3 minutes, even in blood-rich environments, and is bioabsorbable.

US farmers are saying they "just need temporary help, until things get better."
Here's the thing. US farm exports- which are mostly soy- CANNOT get better.
Other countries expanded their soy industries to fill China's demand.
We've walled ourselves out of the global market, folks. This is it.
