"You hired half the Third Reich to staff your office ... If John Lewis were marching today, Mike Collins would be grabbing a billy club" -- here's a supercut of Jon Ossoff SMASHING Mike Collins during tonight's debate
Tom Whitby retweeted
Ossoff: Each time Mike has called himself a trucker tonight, you'd think he's cruising down 85 behind the wheel. This is a congressman's son who inherited a seat in Congress, who now runs his daddy's trucking company, who voted seven times for the war in Iran, who voted for the tariffs, who voted to cut your health care — all so he could give a tax break to data center developers and some of the wealthiest people in the country. His office has been in cahoots with some of the most notorious white supremacists in America. He's already brought disgrace to our state.
But I am so grateful to Georgians for investing the trust in me to represent Georgia in the Senate. I've stood up to the drug companies, to the big tech companies, and to the insurance companies who are denying us the care that we need when we need it. And I humbly ask for your continued support in this election.

Trump is the first president to call for America to be attacked. And his Republican allies said nothing.
They don't care about you, or the country.
Vote Democratic this November. The future of America depends on it.

It’s almost as if they’re going out of their way to make it seem like they are Nazis.

New: The White House Rolex, owned quietly by select Trump staffers and cabinet members with enough clout and cash to afford the custom watch—Steve Witkoff and Susie Wiles among them—is one of the most coveted status symbols in Trump’s Washington vanityfair.com/story/status-…

This is John Valentine and when it comes to data centers, you need to listen to this.
So what are the centers needed for?

Jon Stewart on the Supreme Court: “They have single-handedly made it impossible for us to reform and save our democracy. The way they have made it that corporations are people and money is speech. There has to be a process of amending the Constitution. This idea that Citizens United stands as the law of the land is the biggest bunch of shit. The Constitution is in a suicide pact and money in elections is killing this country”

more important to rename Lake Ontario & reduce bicycle lanes than to research the food-borne parasite cyclospora. US in 2026.
The Trump administration is closing research projects that help fight cyclospora, the foodborne parasite giving thousands of Americans diarrhea and pain this summer.
Three out of the three government projects that help combat the parasite are effectively shutting down.

An apt day to remember that Dolly Parton once recorded a cover of Stairway to Heaven - and, in defiance of every moral law in the universe, she absolutely owned it.

Don’t take my word for it, let me know in the comments. This is top tier quality. And the way that they used each character in the explanation was perfect.

#BREAKING: Jen Psaki delivered a blistering critique of @karolineleavitt’s tenure as Trump’s press secretary: defend the indefensible, repeat Trump’s falsehoods, and when reporters press too hard, attack the questioner instead of answering the question. Psaki ran through examples ranging from claims about damage to the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool, to the ballooning cost of Trump’s ballroom, to explanations for the bandages on Trump’s hand—arguing that Leavitt has repeatedly treated protecting Trump personally as more important than giving the public straight answers.
