Trump wants to "get rid of the CHIPS Act"?!

This is a direct attack on Arizona’s semiconductor industry and tens of thousands of Arizona workers. TSMC's $100 billion investment announced yesterday would not have happened without this bipartisan bill, period.

We just walked out of the state of the Union. My shirt showed Trump an important message: NO KINGS LIVE HERE.

In the spirit of student protestors from the Civil Rights Movement, I’m proud to have protested and walked out with many of my colleagues. This is NOT a normal time.

To force a rape victim to carry to term and give birth is to partake in the rape. It's complicit. It's also perpetrating a deeply sadistic act on top of a previous deeply sadistic act under the guise of religious piety. And, in siding with the rapist, it facilitates further raping.

Sadly, AP is wrong. While it is true that most legacy media outlets are seeing a steep drop off, that is not true for many independent pro-democracy outlets.

The first major race of 2025 is fast approaching—and the implications are enormous. This election will determine the balance of the Wisconsin Supreme Court. Susan Crawford is fighting to preserve her seat while her opponent, rightwing extremist Brad Schimel, is trying to grab the tie-breaking vote.

There is a lot of truth in this interview by @cwarzel.bsky.social. I have said before that @theatlantic.com is one of the few traditional media outlets I consistently enjoy reading.

Not a day passes that someone doesn’t tell me that they are exhausted or, more candidly, afraid. It is okay to be tired and understandable to be afraid. Courage doesn’t come from being well rested and feeling safe. It is found in overcoming those emotions. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-a...
