I'll never understand it.
It all would have been much easier if, as would have happened if we were remotely a serious country, it all ended with the Access Hollywood interview.

Instead of just trying to make premiums more affordable, let’s get rid of them.

I’ll never forget the assassinations of two Democratic lawmakers who were shot and murdered in Minnesota a few months ago and fascist MAGA republicans not only mocking them but the orange felon not lowering flags for them or anyone who has died in mass shootings.

CALLOUT: I'm looking for people to talk to about their experiences with receiving any kind of care at Planned Parenthood, especially those who needed low-cost options. Can be any clinic anywhere, but bonus points if it's Alaska, Hawaii, Kentucky, Washington or Indiana.

Idaho Governor Brad Little authorized up to 14 National Guard personnel to provide administrative support to ICE. Idaho State Police are already assisting ICE with transporting migrants to detention facilities.

Two months after the Supreme Court overruled Roe v. Wade, in June 2022, Idaho’s trigger ban outlawing most abortions—one of the strictest nationwide—took effect.

According to a new peer-reviewed paper study, Idaho lost more than a third of its OBs—94 of 268 total—afterwards.

Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good.

I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

It's amazing how this works everywhere! Almost like kids need to eat to be able to focus in school!

Republicans have a better idea, though: bounce US kids out of school so they can take over the jobs immigrants did.

After all, an educated populace isn't very obedient.

Jefferson& Adams both died on July 4, 1826. In his final writing, Jefferson said: “I shall not die without a hope that light and liberty are on steady advance…the flames kindled on the 4th of July, 1776 have spread over too much of the globe to be extinguished by the feeble engines of despotism.”

When your neighbor on the left is being dragged away by masked men and your neighbor on the right can't get an X-ray for their child, be sure to quickly explain that "both parties are the same" and whatnot.
