Justice @allisonjriggs.bsky.social was elected to the NC Supreme Court.

Two recounts confirmed she won - yet it’s the only race in the country that remains uncertified.

That’s money that could have gone to future judicial races or efforts to turn out Democratic voters in 2026.

BREAKING -- Tesla Cybertrucks RECALLED

2024 and 2025 Cybertrucks have a flaw where their metal panels can fall off, because of faulty glue holding the panel to the car.

This is the EIGHTH recall for the Cybertruck, in only 16 months on the market.

Congrats, everyone—the Elon boycott is working! Reports indicate that Tesla inventory is swelling, especially with Cybertrucks piling up outside their factory. Keep the boycott going, and don’t forget—today is the Economic Blackout!

We need a workable answer to this question.
How do we make sure that people blame RFK Jr and anti-vaxxers for the deaths that *will* occur and *will* be their fault?

Let this sink in. This administration is terminating leaders who are qualified, know & understand the job & the mission, will comply with our laws to hire the unqualified, inexperienced, loud & blindly loyal for leadership positions. But they hate Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Accessibility.

The message that I would like us all to continue to drive home is that NONE of the madness we are seeing now was going on 2 months ago. NONE OF IT. Only ONE thing changed.

REPS took power.

THey own this global chaos. It’s all on them. DRIVE THE MSSAGE TO THE MASSES

The Trump admin’s decision to end telehealth services for Medicare will only make it harder for seniors, people with disabilities, and rural communities to access the care they need.

This horrible decision will cost lives and make Americans less healthy. www.medicare.gov/coverage/tel...
Telehealth
Use telehealth insurance coverage through Medicare to get consultation & medical health services from care providers who aren't at your location.

This story can't be repeated enough. The GOP is lined up behind the guy who is so incompetent that his quasi-gov't agency did this. They're confirming his highly questionable nominees & hurting the American people.

And "accidentally"? It was stupidity, not accident. www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

BREAKING -- Trump says he's kicking undocumented immigrants out of Social Security.

One small problem, though -- undocumented immigrants are ALREADY ineligible for Social Security benefits.

You know, because they don't have Social Security numbers. Because they're undocumented.
