Gosh. If only there were a Supreme Court case that looked at whether or not "well regulated" meant anything and SCOTUS said "nah, can't do shit."

From the minority in both chambers, having the asks be targeted like this, and something no reasonable person could object to *and also* something republicans will likely scream their heads off objecting to, is the move IMO.
NEWS from inside the Senate Dem meeting tonight:
1-Schumer has the votes to block the DHS funding bill
2-They're going to ask for real investigations into the murders (including an end to impeding the state/local investigations), an end to masks and arrest quotas.

Bonnie Tyler says she's earned "almost nothing" from Total Eclipse of the Heart's one billion streams on Spotify. Yet Spotify supposedly pays artists $0.003 - $0.005 per stream, which would add to a tidy $3m+. Does Tyler need to have a word with her accountant?

Postscript: Here are two people who brought guns to a protest and are not only still alive, but were subsequently invited to speak at the 2020 RNC. The fact that this protest was in support of George Floyd does not imply a contradiction in the gun nut world view.

Let’s sketch the magnificent beast that is Deinocheirus!
Deinocheirus mirificus was a huge ornithomimosaur that lived during the Late Cretaceous in Asia. This herbivorous dinosaur had huge arms with large claws that were probably primarily used for digging or gathering plants

pretty wild statement re: Republican Chris Madel drop from race for MN governor:
"Saying he cannot support the national GOP's 'stated retribution on citizens of our state, nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so."
