Around 10:15, the press secretary told Fox that an unnamed ABC official had "said they will be taking action." According to a source, ABC had already settled on suspending Moran by that time.

One hour later ABC announced the suspension. www.cnn.com/2025/06/08/m...

I stand in solidarity with the nearly 1000 SEIU Meriter Hospital nurses in Madison, WI who are rightfully demanding fair pay, safe staffing ratios & improved safety measures.

After over twenty bargaining sessions, Meriter Hospital needs to get serious and reach a contract now.

Fascism sets in EXACTLY like this. Days go by. Nothing improves. The people wait with bated breath for SOMETHING or SOMEONE to help. Court orders, but no enforcement. Time passes. We become desensitized. Life goes on. Rights are chipped away. Life goes on. People die. Life goes on.

When I say you don’t have to worry about microplastics in your brain I mean that there is much stronger evidence that you should be worrying about other things that you don’t ever think about, like the draining of peatlands for agriculture, and things that you think about all the time, like fascism.

3 days ago RFK Jr. told the CDC to stop recommending water fluoridation, claiming it was a neurotoxin (this is a lie).

Turns out he also just eliminated the CDC’s entire Lead Program, and now lead poisoned children in Milwaukee are just on their own. Lead IS a neurotoxin and harms brain development
CDC denies help for lead poisoning in Milwaukee schools due to layoffs
The CDC rejected a request for help "due to the complete loss" of their lead poisoning experts.

After getting some rest, I am in awe of everyone who continues to lift their voice and speak out. This is a moment for our country, and we must make a choice about the America we want to be.

Hey folks.
This needs to be said.
Loudly.

Crawford's win in Wisconsin is a big deal.

Democracy beat bribery.

A Democrat won a heated electoral contest.

Public opinion was against Musk/DJT.

We are in the midst of a struggle, and it sure as hell isn't over.

“We must dissent because America can do better.” Good to hear Wisconsin Judge Susan Crawford quote Justice Thurgood Marshall in her victory speech tonight.

Today has been pretty inspiring. And right now inspiration is extra important. Cory Booker and his amazing 25+ hour speech. Wisconsin showing up and showing out in droves. We cannot be bought and we are unhappy with the way this country being run. Good Trouble, let’s go.

The heart of the Project 2025 end-game + what they've been building towards for decades.

The rolling back of basic safety net programs; reducing life expectancy and access to health-care for poor + working people.

Creating a new baseline of mass death we've become accustom to post-pandemic.

STRESS KILLS.

60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, struggling every day to keep their families going.  

The result: working class people die 7 years earlier than the rich.

We need an economy that works for all, not just the few.
