Public health specialists warned us that abortion bans would cause preventable deaths. Now we learn in Georgia Amber Nicole Thurman died of sepsis while doctors postponed treating her because they feared criminal prosecution. Amber should be alive today.

Pop quiz: Which campaign in 2016 was aided by a covert information operation run by Moscow—and helped this op by asserting it wasn't happening? Bonus question: Which 2016 campaign was run by a man working w/ a Russian intel officer and later called a "grave" counterintelligence

A Senate Republican told an Arab American civil rights leader that “you should hide your head in a bag.” We will not amplify that horrible clip. But we WILL amplify the witness’s powerful response calling it out.

Keep an eye on this.

44 Republican Senators just voted against protecting IVF treatment. 49 Republican Senators said they supported it back in June, but they didn’t today when they had to actually vote on it. Ignore what they say, and watch what they do.

All nine Republican senators running for reelection just voted against the Right to IVF Act: John Barrasso Marsha Blackburn Kevin Cramer Ted Cruz Deb Fischer Josh Hawley Pete Ricketts Rick Scott Roger Wicker (JD Vance missed today's vote) So much for the party of "freedom."

Deplorable.

I just signed a bill to make this illegal in the state of California. You can no longer knowingly distribute an ad or other election communications that contain materially deceptive content -- including deepfakes.

Frankly, it’s depressing how one billionaire can fuck up the night sky for the rest of humanity and our collective ability to try to understand more about the universe. The newer Starlink satellites create even more interference than the old ones. bbc.com/news/articles/…

Larry Hogan was recruited to be another brick in the wall of support behind GOP MAGA leadership. I’m proud to support Angela Alsobrooks because she’s fighting to expand the party of democracy and freedom for the sake of America, not the party of Trump for the autocrats.

It's nowhere close to what happened during the Russian interference in the 2016 election. Can you even imagine Jim Jordan's outrage if Kamala Harris said "Iran, if you're listening.." or if Kamala Harris Jr. met with Iran in the Harris Tower to get dirt on the Trump campaign?

Great piece: half-way industrial policy won't work bc incumbent companies don't want to risk a costly technological transformation. My view: public investment should guarantee demand for stuff like green steel via social goods like green social housing, high-speed rail.

Older Americans are not having it with the return of the KKK and everything else happening around Springfield. We’re sick to death of Trump. Enough already Third Act

Elon Musk is not just the Trump-supporting owner of the social media platform X. He's also one of the platform’s biggest peddlers of election disinformation. motherjones.com/politics/2024/…

With the truth social pump and dump, the Trump bibles, shoes etc, Trump family will be remembered in history as not only inept, or corrupt, but will be seen as thiefs who took advantage of trusting people without much means, and milked them for everything. The name, like

Simply as human beings we are the same. And the 8 billion people alive today will only survive by acknowledging that we belong to one human family. This is how we create a truly peaceful world—by keeping in mind what we all have in common and being helpful to each other. This can
