Republicans in battleground districts are mostly just trying to avoid making headlines. They really don’t want their constituents to know about their unpopular anti-IVF policies.

That’s where we come in! If you can, pitch in to help us put up digital billboards in these GOP districts so voters know the truth about their extremist Members of Congress: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/repro-rights-billboards?refcode=mastodon20240312directpost&source=mastodon

Color me shocked that Hur, with a resume filled with GOP operative red flags*, turned out to be a GOP operative. Well done, Merrick Garland, take a bow.

EXCLUSIVE: Ex-Special Counsel arranged to leave Justice Department the day before his appearance with the House Judiciary Committee

Here is what I said to @guardian about The Times' misplaced obession with age.

Democrats are angry over media coverage of Biden. Is it a distraction?

Fury at the New York Times followed frustration at the justice system. Critics say the president’s supporters are aiming at the wrong targets

The Guardian
By closing loopholes, making the ultra-rich pay their fair share and creating a new minimum corporate tax rate for the largest companies, President Biden will be able to fund vital investments in America’s future AND strengthen our economy at the same time.
Amusing that he was trying to scam the Big Scammer Santos himself

@skotchygut @GottaLaff considering how much voter suppression there is in this country and how much voting is actively discouraged in many cases, no, we do not "deserve" what we get. People who want to vote are often not allowed to vote, and the poor are discriminated against by voting restrictions. We do not have free and fair elections in many states, and the SCOTUS has destroyed the Voting Rights Act so things are getting worse.

Amplify Pres Biden's wins:

“Violent crime has dropped to nearly a 50 yr low, unemployment is <4%, & in Jan the S & P 500 & Dow hit record highs. More Americans than ever have health INS, & the country is producing more energy than ever in its history.”

"I’m running again because I think two things: #1, I’m really proud of my record, & I want to keep it going. I’m optimistic about the future, #2, OK, most of what I’ve done is just kicking in now.”

EXCLUSIVE: Trump’s White House was ‘awash in speed’ and Xanax

If you ever looked at the actions of the Trump administration and wondered, ‘Are they on drugs?’ — the answer was, in some cases, yes. Absolutely, yes.

New reporting from me and Swin Suebsaeng:

Trump’s White House Was ‘Awash in Speed’ — and Xanax

Under Trump, the White House Medical Unit was “like the Wild West,” and staffers had easy access to powerful stimulants and sedatives, sources say.
