BREAKING: In Atlanta, GOP operatives are trying to strong-arm Fulton County into installing two far-right activists on Georgiaโs LARGEST elections board
Both have ties to the national voter suppression machine & a record of undermining confidence in our elections
This can't fly under the radar
Reup: One thing many are missing abt Social Security whistleblower complaint is this: DOGE--including Big Balls, who has ties to criminal hackers--put ALL American Social Security data on an insecure AWS site AFTER SCOTUS GOPers intervened and let them do that.

The Supreme Court made possible the administration's threats to send Mr Abrego Garcia to Uganda -- because the Court blocked the lower court decisions that had restricted the gov'ts ability to send noncitizens to far-flung places they've never been & where they could face violence, torture, & death.

With President Trump threatening to revoke Rosie OโDonnellโs citizenship, it seems like a good time to re-up my explainer on denaturalization and expatriation โ and why what Trump is suggesting is โฆ not viable:
F#ck. โThe prospective buyer of TikTokโs American operationsโ cited by Trump is an โinvestor consortiumโ that includes โAndreessen Horowitz,โ the VC firm founded by Peter Thiel ally Marc Andreessen (which also played a role in Elonโs Twitter acquisition) 6/30/25 1/ www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
Not that anyone cares, but now that JD Vance has cast the tiebreaking vote for $1 trillion in Medicaid cuts, I'm reupping these Vance quotes from 2017, in which he flatly declared that Medicaid cuts like these betray Trumpism's promises to the working class:

Finally, the Government must show a likelihood that it will suffer irreparable harm absent a stay. Nken, 556 U.S. at 434โ435, 129 S.Ct. 1749. When a federal court enters a universal injunction against the Government, it โimproper[ly] intru[des]โ on โa coordinate branch of the Governmentโ and prevents the Government from enforcing its policies against nonparties. INS v. Legalization Assistance Project of Los Angeles County Federation of Labor, 510 U.S. 1301, 1306, 114 S.Ct. 422, 126 L.Ed.2d 410 (1993) (O'Connor, J., in chambers). That is enough to justify interim relief.
i'm not going to post anything more about Trump v. CASA because it is not the most important thing in the world, but I respectfully submit that this paragraph alone justifies all the derision directed at the Court and Justice Barrett
At least, he knows where they are?

Don't doom scroll.
Put down your phone and sleep as best you can.
Get up when you're supposed to and don't skimp on breakfast.

The U.S. Senate is currently considering a budget reconciliation bill that quietly includes language that could devastate our public lands. It would:
- Make over 250 million acres of public land eligible for sale
- Mandate the sale of at least 2 million acres of Forest Service and BLM land
๐จ Thereโs a lot of horrific news out of Washington right nowโbut you might have missed this: Senate Republicans just introduced a plan to sell off 120 million acres of our public lands.
Let me break down whatโs in the bill and why itโs a full-scale land grab. ๐งต
So let's get this straight - @padilla.senate.gov went on the Sen floor, called Trump "a tyrant as a commander-in-chief" & then sent his email list which he uses 4 fundraising that clip.
He then on the same day voted for a shady crypto bill that will further enrich that "tyrant"
Make it make sense.

Scientists in South Korea mightโve just changed the cancer game. A team at KAIST has figured out how to turn colon cancer cells back into healthy ones โ without killing them. Instead of using harsh treatments like chemo or radiation that destroy both cancer and healthy cells, they targeted key โmaster regulatorโ genes that control how cells behave. Think of it like flipping a switch inside the cancer cells to remind them how to act normal again. The genes they focused on were MYB, HDAC2, and FOXA2. These are kind of like bosses in the cellโs command center. By suppressing them, the researchers basically reprogrammed the cancer cells, turning them back into something close to normal colon cells. This is totally different from traditional therapies that try to destroy tumors. Here, the cancer isnโt killed โ itโs reversed. This[KAIST, published study with lead author Professor Kwang-Hyun Cho]
Read about this amazing research from S. Korean scientists to, not eradicate cancer cells, but to flip them into healthy ones. Go to alt in the pic to read about it.
Meanwhile, FOTUS & his flunkies are defunding cancer research.
