Elect liars, expect to be lied to. Elect traitors, and expect our national security to be damaged.
According to a source I have at the CIA, Director Radcliffe lied today under oath. Signal is absolutely not loaded on agency computers. As a matter of fact it’s specifically prohibited as an outside app. Skype is allowed for conference calls but not Signal. He’s lying. @markwarner.bsky.social

NYPAN announces endorsement of Progressive Slate and #1 Ranking for NYC Mayor!

We urge voters to rank Brad Lander #1, & Zellnor Myrie, Jessica Ramos & Zohran Mamdani #2 - #4 as they choose, but don't rank Trump’s ally Adams or disgraced former Gov. Cuomo, if he enters the race.

I'm sorry but they're gutting the Dept of Education, rolling out plans for mass deportations--including sending migrants to Guantanamo--dismantling the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and the NLRB, and the Atlantic's first issue of the Trump era is "How Progressives Froze the American Dream"?

so i don’t know if susan collins knows this but she belongs to a body that has the constitutionally designated power to tell HHS to stop making these cuts because they do not have the authority to unilaterally refuse to spend congressional appropriations.
Senate Appropriations Chair Susan Collins slams the Trump admin’s NIH cuts as “poorly conceived” and says she has called RFK to “to express my strong opposition to these arbitrary cuts in funding for vital research.” She says he promised to “re-examine this initiative” if confirmed as HHS secretary.

just a heads-up: there are a *lot* of spammy "blue wave" accounts being created on Bluesky right now, I can see them blocking my account because I blocked some of the early ones for being obvious follow-farmers. Be mindful if you see rage-baiting generic "trump bad" content from new accounts.
