Gutted by the Dems caving after the blue-wave wins of last week? Sick & tired of us snatching defeat from the jaws of victory? I hear you! Might I suggest you calm yourself, relax, take a deep, cleansing breath... then see if this photo of 2 pandas cuddling is of any help.

In the dead of night, the Trump administration ordered states to stop issuing SNAP benefits.
This president will stop at nothing to take food out of the mouths of hungry kids across America. Soulless.

I voted NO. As long as there is still any time left to reverse the MAGA health care hike, I believe we should do everything we can to force Republicans to the negotiating table.

In Tacoma, Anders Ibsen appears poised to win the mayor race. Latasha Palmer also is up for Tacoma City Council Po. 6. Both are Urbanist-endorsed.

Over $100,000 in outside money was spent in support of electing John Hines Mayor of Tacoma, but it looks like voters are set to elect (Urbanist endorsed) Anders Ibsen instead.

And also every single county in Virginia shifted blue, two statewide posts in Georgia went blue (for the first time in two decades), three Pennsylvania judicial races went blue, a Maine vote went blue, a Mississippi state senate seat went blue ....

Kids are smarter than you think: Young chimpanzees invent tools and improve adult designs
Young chimpanzees are remarkably innovative, inventing tools and improving on ones that adults use—and this technical know-how could hold the key to better appreciating the role of children in the evolution of all cultures, including ours.

And your state can help do that. But they won’t. Even if your state is a democratic majority. They still won’t. You should ask yourself why they won’t.
Your regular reminder that we desperately need to overturn Citizens United and get big money out of politics.
It is among the worst Supreme Court decisions in history.
It corrupts our political system every day.

Angus: Canada is reconsidering that relationship with China. Why? Because we can no longer trust the US.
And we know that we have 150, maybe more, Canadians in custody at ICE detention centers. We had two Canadians under Chinese custody and it caused a huge outcry. We now have over 150 in the US.

This is a U.S. citizen being brutally abducted by ICE while his mom pleads for them to stop and the videographer cries for help. The Chicago police do nothing to stop it.
They will come for everyone, and they’re not even hiding that anymore. If you are not organizing and resisting yet, get started.

If a temporary resident of the White House can totally demolish the East Wing to build a gaudy ballroom, without any authority, approval, or regulation, he can tear down the rest of the White House to build a Walmart. That this destruction is allowed underscores how off the rails our country is now.
