Hands Off The Arts has set up a camera near the Kennedy Center to monitor when Trump's name comes down. Appears to be at the Watergate. Some excitement over a cherrypicker today, but that equipment is for tree trimming.
Medicaid cuts. Hospital closures. More people unable to afford health care.
That’s what Republican Congressman David Valadao is offering his constituents this election. That’s the message. #CA22
Sarah McBride: “Congress’ top bathroom sheriff, Nancy Mace, was on the ballot. And while all of the votes have not yet been counted, she’s in a respectful 5th place. I don’t like to punch down and I believe in the politics of grace, so I’ll just say, Happy Pride, Nancy.”
You love to see it! Let's elect more doctors and scientists to public office! Candidates like Dr. Pan are pushing back against RFK Jr. and Trump and their agenda of defunding science, gutting our public health infrastructure, and cutting our health care 🩺🥼
WASHINGTON (AP) — Democrat Richard Pan advances to the general election for U.S. House in California's 6th Congressional District. #APRaceCall at 8:00 p.m. EDT. https://t.co/TS3eIpQI5W
DOGE cut the CDC’s Vessel Sanitation Program and we got hantavirus.
DOGE slashed USAID funding and we got one of the worst Ebola outbreaks on record.
DOGE gut screwworm detection and now it’s spreading in Texas.
Fund science now.
I can say from my own experience w/ a chronic lung disease that energy levels and mobility ABSOLUTELY fluctuate from one day to the next. This could be from any number of factors, including air quality, excessive heat, or symptom flare-ups like shortness of breath and chest pain.
New Medicaid rules may force doctors to determine which patients with HIV, cancer & other conditions are too sick to work. Docs told me this will be esp. hard bc the energy/mobility of the chronically ill fluctuates day-to-day. https://t.co/Lkw7M3IkWm w/ @rking_19
PAPPAS: For people that have LGBTQ family members, who are part of the community themselves, it’s really important for them to be able to see their own experiences reflected in their elected leaders.
More from his interview w/ @metroweekly ⬇️🏳️🌈
Could Chris Pappas become the first out gay man elected to the U.S. Senate? The New Hampshire congressman talks with us about affordability, LGBTQ representation, Donald Trump, and the future of the Democratic Party.
Those off-menu mozzarella sticks at Caruso’s Grocery lived up to the hype last night: crispy exterior, gooey cheese, and served with a spicy marinara and zesty pesto. Will have again. H/t @mattadler81
Leading my newsletter The Fight today:
New @heatmap_news polling finds a clear majority of registered voters — 61% — support a national AI data center moratorium.
This is bipartisan: more than half of both Dem and GOP support the idea when asked.

This is an interesting move and investment for NYT. People still talk about and reference the “100 best books of the 21st century” on many book/culture podcasts. And we’ve seen other outlets jump on the trend.
NYT book review editor Gilbert Cruz is stepping down, per a note to staff. He'll become "Canon editor," where he will build a team dedicated to "expanding our embrace of those moments when we invite experts and readers alike to help us declare the definitive works in a given discipline."
