Kansas patients, veterans, seniors, and families are still waiting.
Most Americans support medical cannabis — but Kansas leadership keeps blocking it.
It’s time for compassion, science, and freedom to guide policy.

Jonathan Dresner"To be clear: People are criticizing Israel because it is committing significant human rights violations against Palestinians in the West Bank and especially Gaza, and not out of Jew-hatred. Jews are involved in every level of the Palestinian solidarity movement, including encampments. There are already laws to protect people from harassment and violence; Jews don’t require special protection."
"even this hand-picked audience did not refrain from sharing legitimate concerns and asking pointed questions. In a litany of carefully crafted responses, Sen. Marshall managed to dodge them."
"He blamed autism on smart phones, blamed China for a price hike in Canadian potash our farmers need to fertilize their crops, blamed wars for increased consumer prices, and assured attendees that “tariffs are resulting in more jobs coming home.”"
Christine LuBean🚨 Disability rights are under attack in 17 states! 🚨
There’s a lawsuit trying to get rid of Section 504, the law that protects disabled people in schools, workplaces, and public spaces. If they succeed, it means:
❌ Schools wouldn’t have to provide accommodations (no extra test time for ADHD, no wheelchair access, no diabetes care in class).
❌ Workplaces wouldn’t have to adjust for disabilities (no remote work, no flexible scheduling, no accessibility requirements).
❌ Public spaces could ignore accessibility needs (buildings, buses, and services wouldn’t have to be usable for disabled people).
📍 These 17 states are trying to gut 504 protections:
Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, West Virginia.
If you live in one of these states, contact your state reps & governor! If this lawsuit succeeds, other states could follow, or it could reach the Supreme Court and hurt everyone.

#Kansas legislature to consider banning pronouns and preferred names in COLLEGE and even graduate schools.
Yes, all students, even legal adults.
Adult nicknames would be illegal on all state institution campuses (and presumably in all online university functions).
There are no good-faith anti-trans arguments and no acceptable compromises on trans lives.
We were there, though we don't show up in this video (or any of the pictures I've seen so far)
Of *course* the report spends as much time on the single-digit Trumpist counter-protesters (including a lingering shot on one guy's holstered weapon under the narration 'no violence broke out') as the hundreds of pro-immigrant, pro-LGBTQIA+, pro-democracy folks.
EiderNot knowing what to do about the judge retention questions in my ballot, a redditor recommended to use https://kflpac.org/vote/
and vote the opposite. I guess if you are a maga Republican you can vote their endorsements

We actually have a Kansas Congressional 2nd District Democratic Primary contest now.
I like how the phrase "heavily gerrymandered" keeps popping up...
Fifteen GOP, Democratic candidates file to compete in Kansas' four congressional campaigns • Kansas Reflector
TOPEKA — Former Democratic U.S. Rep. Nancy Boyda and Libertarian-turned-Republican Michael Ogle filed Monday to expand to seven the major party candidates drawn to the 2nd District vacancy created by the decision of GOP Congressman Jake LaTurner to not seek reelection. Boyda, the Baldwin City resident who defeated incumbent Republican U.S. Rep. Jim Ryun in […]
Fantastic. [/sarcasm]
Our House Rep is quitting and the candidates to replace him are:
This guy, former state AG who was part of the pro-Jan 6 legal brigade, a true Trump believer [and failed candidate for gov]

This guy, who worked for the current guy, and who is going full anti-trans in his opening statement.

This is a solidly gerrymandered Republican seat. Only time we got close was a Santos-lite hack.
