MAGA Senator Appears Not to Have Read the SAVE Act Mike Rounds said a marriage certificate is a valid form of ID. It is not.

Republican lawmakers pretending that the SAVE Act isn’t a huge problem for married women are either lying or haven’t actually read the bill.

So the President of the United States illegally taxed our groceries, clothes, and other basics goods for nearly a year.

Minneapolis live updates: Two Border Patrol agents who fired their guns in Alex Pretti’s fatal shooting have been put on leave Follow live updates on a preliminary Department of Homeland Security report sent to Congress on Alex Pretti’s fatal shooting in Minnesota that said two officers fired their guns during the struggle.

www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news... #ProudBlue #USDemocracy. Putting the murderers of Alex Pretti on administeration leave should have been done immediately after the execution. Now charge them with murder. There must be justice for Alex Pretti. His killers cannot remain free to kill again.

This can’t be repeated enough. Not only won’t they investigate, they may never even tell us who did this.

Think about the message that sends to the next ones. Nobody is safe.

Why are my grocery prices higher now than one year ago? I thought grocery prices would be lowered on day 1. Don't forget that he decided to stop food stamp distributions too to select states. Don't believe anything Donald Trump says. He does not care about you or your family at all.

Doctor Denies Woman Prenatal Care Because She’s Unmarried A Tennessee woman was forced to flee her state to seek treatment for her pregnancy.

A Tennessee woman was denied prenatal care by her doctor because she is "unwed."

Let's be clear: the Republican agenda is not pro-life or pro-family.

If it were, pregnant women wouldn't be forced to flee their home states to get basic prenatal care.

And today, the Trump FCC approved Paramount’s $8 billion merger with Skydance.

At least they’re not trying to hide the corruption.

South Park Eviscerates Trump and His “Teeny-Tiny” Manhood South Park kicked off their new season with a damning episode showing Donald Trump in bed with Satan.

South Park used its first new episode in two years to openly ridicule President Trump and Paramount, their own parent company. The episode, titled “Sermon on the Mount,” parodies much of the president’s first six months, portraying him literally in bed with Satan.

The Texas GOP’s ‘Unprecedented,’ Risky Gerrymandering Scheme A redistricting expert discusses Tom Delay, ‘dummymanders,’ and the long history of racial gerrymandering in the state.

New from @byjustinmiller.bsky.social: "If you actually redraw the districts that are named in the letter, that’s just buying like a Texas-sized legal fight. You’re just inviting the argument that you’re intentionally discriminating against communities of color."

Stephen Colbert's firing is a test of free expression If a comedian can't make jokes about the president and corporations, who can?

"The president seems to be engaging in blackmail, pure and simple," @digby56.bsky.social writes. "With many of our institutions caving to his threats to block their ability to do business and refusing to defend their own freedoms, it looks like it will be up to comedians to fight the power."

Vought wants to dismantle our gov and rebuild it into a dictatorship. His weapon is a fringe legal theory called the “unitary executive.” It claims the president should control the entire executive branch, with 🚫✅s from Congress, no independence for the courts, and no oversight from watchdogs. ❌👑.

Trump Is Baiting the Courts The president is following a playbook that authoritarians around the world have used to assert their power over the judiciary’s.

Donald Trump’s attacks on courts “follow a clear pattern seen in backsliding democracies around the world,” writes Andrew O'Donohue. “To undermine public support for the judiciary, political leaders adopt policies that are popular but very likely illegal”:
