This way madness lies

“But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.”

Vote accordingly.

🚨 BREAKING: New poll finds Democrat Gina Hinojosa ONE POINT AWAY from beating Greg Abbott.

She is running on healthcare for all.

[maybe: diane @dianelyssa]

beyond party loyalty, haley stevens is showing that she does not believe that she was owed anyone’s votes, owed a nomination, or owed an elected office.

she presented her vision, voters didn’t choose it, she respected that, and she recommitted herself to helping win the senate.

The boat

[Jon Cooper 🇺🇸 @joncoopertweets]

Stephen Miller, Nancy Mace and Pete Hegseth are in a rowboat that's sinking in the middle of a lake. You can only save one of them — who would you choose?

Heather Cox Richardson: "We, in fact, have a Congress that does not seem to be interested in protecting its prerogatives and a Supreme Court that is actively working to concentrate power in a single person."

One of the worst things about Trump is that he’s ushering in more corporate welfare, cronyism, and socialism while parading it under the banner of capitalism, so we end up with all the failings of those ideologies but with a generation of young people blaming the market economy.

The Florida Democratic primary is August 18, in 11 days

aipac is now airdropping money into the race cus they’re panicking.

[Irishrygirl @irishrygirl]

I’m so sick of the fabricated “democrats in shambles” DSA v moderate candidate bullshit. It doesn’t appear to be an issue for the voters. The media should focus on Trump’s failed policy and republicans embrace of wife beaters and child rapists..

If Democrats win the Senate in November it’s close to impossible for them to lose the Senate in 2028, by the way.

You better vote blue.

[Elizabeth Warren @ewarren]

Would you believe it? Trump has found another way to profit from the presidency.

His new “Truth API” reportedly charges Wall Street firms up to $100,000/month for faster access to his Truth Social posts.

Turning presidential power into a payday is corruption. Plain and simple.

Newsom in Michigan: Democrats literally have flipped 30 seats from red to blue. We have not lost one race! You saw what happened in Virginia, you saw what happened in New Jersey. They're going to win! You have chosen wisely. But the work is again in front of you.

One thing we don't do is we don't run the 90-yard dash. We can't take anything for granted—and this is the message I want to leave with you—because what we're up against is ruthlessness. I know a thing or two about it.

Texas patriot to Tarrant County commissioners: "When I joined the United States Navy, I swore an oath to defend the Constitution of the United States of America from enemies, foreign and domestic. And when people try to take away our right to vote in America, they start looking like enemies domestic. Talking to you, Comrades."

I was a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford w/ @AbdulElSayed & know his wife, Sarah Jukaku.

A brilliant & kind psychiatrist, Sarah embodies much that American feminists fought for.

Many Michiganders are less shallow & misogynistic than DT. They could make Abdul 🇺🇸’s first Muslim senator.

[Maine @TheMaineWonk]

In less than 2 years these clowns:

- Renamed Department of Defense the Department of War.

- Burned through 70% of munitions and a near $1 trillion budget.

- “Ended” 8 made up wars and lost the 1 war they actually started

A national fucking disgrace.

[Shannon Watts @shannonrwatts]

There is no federal law giving women paid or even unpaid time off specifically for egg retrieval, egg freezing, IVF monitoring, or other fertility appointments. Instead, they have to fit fertility care into existing legal categories or employer policies.

The US makes fertility treatment an individual employee-benefits problem, while most peer nations treat reproductive treatments as something employment policies should accommodate.

conservatives don’t know what democratic socialism is so they call it communism because they don’t know what that is either
