“Selective Christianity is a hell of a thing. These folks inaccurately deploy the Bible as a weapon for their own misguided judgment but never seem to read what Christ said constantly about our collective duty to the poor.”

Measure 113 - bars legislators from seeking reelection after 10 or more unexcused absences.
Each of the three senators racked up more than 10 absences during a record six-week walkout that paralyzed the 2023 legislative session. The boycott stemmed from bills on abortion, transgender health care...

So a federal judge just revoked bail for a billionaire with shaky finances and a long history of fraud, because defendant leaked case details, trying to intimidate witnesses -- and now defendant has to report to jail pending trial.
Somehow, this isn't a tweet about Donald Trump.

I only want good things for Sha’Carri Richardson. The way she was pilloried during the last Olympics cycle was absurd and shameful. Completely embarrassing to see grown adults clutch their pearls over an elite athlete smoking a joint. I hope she wins every damn race she enters.

I like Biden & Harris; they're good, capable people. Together, they've accomplished a hell of a lot of good things for America, starting with the poor & marginalized and working up. I want them to be able to continue their work. And *fuck* popular. That's media-driven horseshit.

Biden could literally step out the White House to a press gaggle wearing Bermuda shorts and a Sailor Moon t-shirt while spinning plates on top of sticks like a 1910 Ringling Brothers sideshow and I would still vote for him every time until the year 3000 if it means extinguishing republicans.

Echo this if you're voting for Biden in 2024. If you're not, respond and tell me why. There aren't any trolls here so I can't imagine there are many reasons why you wouldn't but I'd still like to know.

5. The one thing that is missing from all of the Twitter alternatives is a Twitter Spaces equivalent. Once we are finished revamping our front end, we will launch Spoutible Pods, which is our answer to Spaces. Pods will be audio and video, with unique features not available elsewhere.

I just finished this book. It took me through emotions. I was doubtful, angry, relieved, happy, and sad; and not in this order 😊. I had to get through the first few chapters before I started to enjoy it. Then it became a page turner for me, figuratively, because I listened to the audiobook. 5 🌟

That's something I've been wanting to bring up with you. When adding a image on here it's very tiny and then when you do pick one most of it is obscured until you post it. I'm not always sure I have the correct image until I post.

Remember, Zuck reportedly met Trump secretly in 2019 and struck an under the table deal — Facebook would not deplatform Trump and his followers, and Trump would lay off regulating or taking enforcement actions against Facebook.
He is not a friend to democracy. None of them are.

It doesn't matter if the SCOTUS has been 9 justices for more than 100 years. That's a *norm* they are trying to threaten you with while they applaud *settled laws* being taken down.
If laws can't be settled, then neither will 9 justices on the SCOTUS.

Torn on the Fourth of July - by Kevin M. Kruse
One of the things I like about Substack is I actually get to write my own headlines. This title is what I wanted to call this piece I did for Washington Post a while back, but I was tragically overruled. In that piece, I talk briefly about Nixon’s campaign to blunt the massive criticism he’d receive..

The US government isn't weaponized against conservatives.
It's weaponized against dictators.
It's weaponized against our enemies abroad.
It's weaponized against anyone who would overthrow the government.
When I was growing up, we called that PATRIOTISM.

The only thing more humiliating than GOP Rep. James Comer having to admit that he couldn't find any of the incriminating material on Joe Biden that he promised is his latest admission that he also apparently lost his informant.
