One good result of the Supreme Court decision today is that it effectively ends ‘forum shopping,’ the practice of suing in a district with only one judge — who’s friendly to your case — to try to block something nationally. Super annoying tactic.

Federal funding for PBS mostly goes to *local affiliates*. That’s who will be hurt by the funding cuts. It also means less news for you about your community — and it’s a way to protect local leaders from being held accountable by the public.

Great video, PBS and Ben Sheehan! Rank MI Vote is circulating the petition to bring Ranked Choice Voting to Michigan right now. Voters are eager for elections that express their real choices in meaningful ways; to vote their hopes, not their fears. youtu.be/MF5uaerHPzg?si…

“There is no starvation in Gaza.” When you deny something literally everyone can see on their phones, that more than a hundred aid orgs are confirming, that every major news outlet is confirming, you come off as both insane and monstrous.

Ben Sheehan made “Civics Made Easy” for PBS so Americans could “get caught up together”, then Trump defunded public broadcasting to make sure we’re as stupid as possible…what comes next? x.com/i/broadcasts/1…
