Russia: Mothers send off conscripts to defend the border in Belgorod region with the eternal words:
"You're leaving as boys and will return as men!"
Good chance they will instead be sent to combat on the frontline in Kursk as has been happening with other conscripts.

I demand a full transparent investigation into Elon Musk, his holdings and foreign investments.

If he as a private citizen can demand investigations then so can the rest of us.

[Timothy Snyder @TimothyDSnyder]

Rosa DeLauro is a kind person, a smart policymaker, and a great American. And unlike Mr Musk, she was elected to do a job.

Hey UNITED HEALTHCARE

[Brendan Farrington @bsfarrington]

I’m at a cancer treatment center getting my 27th dose of radiation. My doctor recommends 35. @UHC refuses to pay for more than 28. I’ve fought them for weeks to get full treatment approved. This is my Hail Mary to hopefully get them to reconsider.

Germany’s neo-Nazi AfD party has a secret Facebook group for its leaders.

They shared and laughed at a post one of them made with Anne Frank’s picture on a pizza box, saying Oven Fresh.

Elon Musk just endorsed the AfD.

Those frozen assets can be put to use to protect and rebuild Russia's main target, Ukraine. It's justice both poetic and practical. Seize the Western assets & visas of Putin's war-enabling oligarch pals and their families also. Stop playing by obsolete rules that Russia exploits.

[Victoria Brownworth @VABVOX]

So after reading the investigation into how the world's wealthiest man bought the 2024 election, I want to know how someone with multiple government contracts was able to do this when it is illegal to make contributions to candidates as a contractor. Where's the DOJ on this?

Everyday physical activity, even light movement, improves cognitive processing speed, equivalent to reversing four years of cognitive aging. This highlights the short-term brain benefits of staying active. https://t.co/iMPC46KFhE

Dude got arrested for eating a sandwich while waiting for a train?? 😬

[Ron Filipkowski @RonFilipkowski]

Virtually every question today at the WH Press briefing was about the Hunter pardon, as if that is the thing the American people care about most right now. The DC press is so disconnected from the American public and serves them poorly more often than not.

I'm reposting this thread because it's gotten terrific comments, but limited circulation since I've been shadow banned. (Reposts are greatly appreciated.)
1/ If you’re surprised we’re in this mess, you haven’t been paying attention to history. As I show in my new book, Den of Spies, the GOP has been engaged in treasonous assaults on democracy for more than 50 years.

[Craig Unger @craigunger]

2/It started w/ Nixon’s election in 1968. Back then, Nixon “secretly deputized GOP operative Anna Chennault to intervene on his behalf and talk directly to the powers that be in South Vietnam” to make sure they would NOT participate in the Paris Peace Talks. Sure enough, South Vietnam withdrew from the peace talks, Nixon won, and the war continued for six more years, resulting in another twenty thousand unnecessary American deaths, not to mention millions of Cambodian, Laotian, and Vietnamese casualties. But it remained a secret until too late. The Dems didn’t fight back.

[David Corn @DavidCornDC]

THIS JUST IN: An investigation of Tulsi Gabbard's PACs shows much of the funds raised have gone to fundraising & to pay her advisers, not the stated mission of the PACs. Plus, she won't reveal the donors to a charity she runs. All this needs vetting.

Great! Let’s end farm subsidies and stop wasting money on ethanol. Lead the way, Senator.

[Protect Kamala Harris ✊ @DisavowTrump20]

This is James Gillchrist, an Iraq war veteran and teacher. He was just fired from Rockhurst High School, a private school in Kansas City, for speaking out against Donald Trump.

RETWEET if you stand with Gillchrist as he speaks truth to power!

[Stephanie Miller @StephMillerShow]

I think it’s critical right now that we support all the amazing democracy warriors at @MSNBC that DON’T bend the knee to Trump, like @Lawrence @maddow @DeadlineWH @chrislhayes @AriMelber @alexwagner @jrpsaki @MichaelSteele etc 💙🇺🇸

[ProPublica @propublica]

ProPublica recently reported on two women — Josseli Barnica and Nevaeh Crain — who died in Texas after they couldn’t access timely reproductive care.

Now, more than 100 Texas OB-GYNs have signed a letter blaming their deaths on the state’s laws.
