The fix is in.

Ghislaine Maxwell, transferred to a club med prison after Trump's lawyer met with her (and she likely spilled what she knows about Trump), is now being waited on "hand and foot" by guards and is getting her commutation application ready with help from the warden.

Why aren't the Dems redistricting or attempting to re-redistrict in their state legislatures?

The United States, even when it’s governed humanely, lacks a truly universal health care system. So let’s not kid ourselves when we claim to be a decent society while we dispense health care according to merit.

The “Undeserving Poor” Deserve Medicaid
Most able-bodied Medicaid recipients already have jobs, but those who don’t should receive health care too.

Norms are out the window -- and they should have been when people started disappearing.

This is precisely what Northerners said in the late 1850s after southern congressmen protecting slavery threatened their northern colleagues for many years.

Northerners made it clear that they wanted their members of Congress to fight back.

Hard.

A few came to the Capitol with guns.

The last 50 years have been a sickening catastrophe for the working class and have created another class of people who really do think they’re better than everyone else.

There is an obvious cure.

Things at the heart of being American:

Free & fair elections where WE get to decide who gets power.

The right to protest & talk back to power.

Faith in a fair chance before the law (due process)

The promise of citizenship: the ultimate pact of trust

A shared set of laws that rules us all.

I ran across this Christian Identity tract in the papers of Walter Huss, the chair of the OR GOP who was criticized by his fellow Republicans for saying he wanted Christians to run the government. It was obvious how antisemitic that was in 1978. How things have changed.

Sacramento Bee, 8 October 1978. This was back in the day when Republican leaders (like Vic Atiyeh and Tom McCall) actually understood what antisemitism was and were willing to criticize it.

This is the sort of procedural hardball I've been wanting to see, and that Senate Democrats in particular should be doing way more of.
They wanted to pass this evil budget to take away healthcare from millions earlier today. It’s still stuck in the rules committee cause House Dems introduced over 500 amendments and we are lined up to debate on them. Delaying is important. Keep up the pressure on these Congressional Republicans.

i think it should be a bigger story that the president held a meeting with a foreign head of state where he ranted about the most gutter white supremacist propaganda you can find on the internet

“The administration is no longer pretending that it is standing up for Jewish students,” Rose Horowitch writes. “The project has been revealed for what it is: an effort to punish liberal institutions for the crime of being liberal.”
Trump Finally Drops the Anti-Semitism Pretext
The latest letter to Harvard makes clear that the administration’s goal is to punish liberal institutions for the crime of being liberal.

Today, SCOTUS lit the path for the Trump administration to start discharging thousands of transgender servicemembers, including people who have served openly for years. This is shameful, disgusting, + harmful to national security, the military, and all those who serve, especially these individuals.

Q: "What would have happened to you if you had shared battle plans like this when you were a pilot?"

Rep. Mikie Sherrill: "Like everyone else except Pete Hegseth, evidently, I would've been court-marshaled and drummed out of the military. This is absolutely ridiculous."
