Massachusetts AG Campbell: What you heard from the president and the speaker is total bullshit.

Let’s take a step back. Never in the history of this country — during a war or an emergency shutdown — has the federal government ever stopped funding SNAP benefits for our most vulnerable.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 94th day out of the last 106.

12 days of work in 106 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Nothing says “man of the people” like adding gold trim and a shiny sign outside the Oval Office. Somewhere, Marie Antoinette is whispering, “tone it down.”

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

Today, the White House Press Secretary told the country that this ridiculous damn ballroom is “the president’s main priority”…not reopening the government, not lowering the cost of groceries, not lowering the cost of housing, not lowering the cost of healthcare….building a ballroom

The public deserves to know the extent of Epstein’s abuse and to hold accountable anybody—regardless of political affiliation—who enabled it. Add your name to the petition to demand the Department of Justice and White House publicly release the files.

Concerning news from @cidrap.bsky.social:

Cambodia has 15 human bird flu cases this year; ~50% death rate 🪦.

Meanwhile, RFK Jr. just cut $500M in funding for mRNA vaccine research—projects that could speed vaccines for flu, COVID, & bird flu.

These cuts are a direct threat to our biosecurity.
Cambodia announces 15th human H5N1 infection of the year

Seven of the 15 cases from Cambodia this year have been fatal, resulting in a case-fatality rate of 46.6%.

Access to safe abortion protects the health of women and girls.

As with all other health services, women and girls should be able to access safe and respectful abortion care, when they need it, without fear of harm, punishment or recrimination.

The stories we tell matter. I know this not from watching but from memory. I was just a child, held behind barbed wire in a U.S. internment camp, when an atomic bomb obliterated Hiroshima—killing members of my family.

For 60 years since its passage, the Voting Rights Act has been undermined by politicians trying to make decisions on behalf of voters.

It's time to pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act, get rid of partisan gerrymandering, and give power back to the people.

60 years later, Voting Rights Act protections for minority voters face new threats
Sixty years after the Voting Rights Act became a landmark law against racial discrimination, legal challenges heading to the Supreme Court could curtail its remaining protections for minority voters.

ATTN: If you’re one of the 1,000 FBI agents who reviewed the Epstein files, feel free to reach out to me via signal (in my bio). I’ll keep you anonymous- as I have the thousands of current and former federal workers who have sent me tips. Please share this widely. 🙏🏻

John Lewis walked, bled, and lived for justice.

Five years since his passing, we honor him the only way we know how:

By refusing to stay silent and getting in more Good Trouble.
