Trickle-down economics was always a sham.

The motivation of the man who shot Charlie Kirk isn't clear (although he's probably mentally unstable--duh). What is clear is it was another example of American gun violence.

1. Monica Helms, the creator of the transgender flag and Navy Veteran, is leaving the US due to anti-LGBTQ+ persecution.

“We are worried there’s a possibility something could happen where we end up getting arrested just for being who we are,” Helms said.

The largest SNAP cuts in history went into effect yesterday, eliminating or drastically cutting food assistance for millions of Americans.

And it’s all to pay for more tax cuts that primarily benefit the super-rich.

Trickle-down economics isn't just a hoax — it's cruel.

As long as guns are easily available to crazy people, mass killings directed at so-called soft targets will continue. This is a fact. Countries where it's more difficult for crazy people to obtain guns have less shootings. This is also a fact. Do with these facts as you will.

Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice.

It doesn't have to be this way.

The ‘dog days’ of summer get their name due to their association with the Dog Star, Sirius, found in the constellation Canis Major.

The first visible rising of Sirius occurs during the hot stretch from early July to early September.

If Democrats want to regain working people, they must disavow Big Money.

They must hammer economic populism — and have a laser focus on the cost of living crisis in America.

There’s no way the party can speak for or represent the working class in America if it's beholden to corporate interests.

1. Last night, Zohran Mamdani prevailed in the Democratic Primary for New York Mayor.

He didn't run from trans people... He fought for them, pledging $65M to shore up care.

He even spoke at rallies against hospitals like NY Langone capitulating to Trump.

1. On Tuesday, Congresswoman Sarah McBride gave a interview with Ezra Klein at the New York Times.

It has been used to seed the ground for a rightward shift in the Democratic Party on trans rights.

Some allies have failed to grasp the problems with her approach.

ICE just arrested Brad Lander, the NYC Comptroller and one of the leading candidates for Mayor, without grounds.

He was conducting routine immigration court work, escorting individuals from hearings.

He asked ICE for their warrant - well within his legal rights.

This is political intimidation.
Whoa! NYC mayoral candidate and current city Comptroller Brad Lander seemingly arrested at the NYC immigration court while attending to escort someone attending their hearing.
Lander just got detained by federal agents as he tried to escort a man out of the courtroom. Lander was taken in an elevator with masked agents, along with one member of his NYPD security detail.

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence.

1. In a major ruling, a federal court has ruled that Trump's executive orders banning funding to orgs that promote "gender ideology" is likely unconstitutional.

This will help protect or restore funding for LGBT centers who are plaintiffs.

Note: Now that the Pride flag is an official city government flag, many schools and cities across the US with Pride flag bans can now fly it.

Many Pride flag bans have an exception for “city” or “government” flags.

And those exceptions do not specify that they are your local government flag.
1. Missoula, Montana has cleverly voted to defy the Pride flag ban by making the it "an official city flag."

This comes after a law banned the flying of the flag but made an exception for "official flags."

Now, the Pride flag will fly defiantly in the state.
