Bruised and battered optimist. Realizing that it’s time to acknowledge we’ve been under attack for decades. We need a plan for how to win against psychological warfare. I want our friends and families back!

Please watch this.

The Senate killed a bill to ban state regulation of AI by a vote of 99-1 this spring. Now the industry - eager to stay unregulated - and Trump are scheming to shove the provision in the national defense bill.

You need to know this, so you can help stop it.

Turns out 'efficiency' was a cover for austerity. DOGE slashed agencies, hurt workers and communities, and never found the trillions in waste it promised. Let’s invest in public services and stop letting billionaires play government. People deserve better. #DOGEShutdown #PublicGoods

Anyone know someone at Union of Concerned Scientists that would want to talk to an activist on Guam about water quality? She's visiting DC next week. Any help is appreciated.

The EPA will approve two new pesticides containing “forever chemicals” and relax a reporting rule for companies who make products with forever chemicals.

The moves come after a $60 million lobbying blitz from the forever chemical industry.

Where is the MAHA outcry?

This ruling is also an indictment (pun intended) of Pamela Jo’s incompetence.

She illegally made Halligan the Interim US Attorney/EDVA per orders from Convicted Felon Trump. And then Bondi scrambled to make Halligan a “special attorney” just in case she wasn’t validly appointed in the first place.

"The Attorney General of the United States has set a new low for this committee," Whitehouse said.

Shouldn't doing what Pam Bondi is accusing James Comey of doing be a scandal that would make her have to resign? In her case it's is easily proven that she lied to the committee.

New Yorkers are tired of being asked to believe in a system that has delivered little for them. They want a politics that can see the scale of the crisis, and actually start to tackle it.

Mike Johnson is big mad that we forced through a petition and forced a vote on releasing the Epstein files.

So let’s do it again. This time to restore the ACA credits he stole from us:

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

Many of us learned long ago that there is no "Legal Philosophy" in the Federalist Society. It is a club that gives members a leg up in the competition for certain judicial clerkships and jobs in the Trump administration. That is it. Period.

How does the NY Times not know this?
