Speaking of, if you live in California, please text “Sign PGHZOY” and “sign PHQICF” to 50409 to encourage your reps to join calls for an independent investigation with public disclosure into allegations against BH city officials colluded with antiabortion extremists to prevent a clinic from opening.
How Beverly Hills became an unlikely battleground for the future of abortion rightswww.yahoo.com The campaign by an antiabortion group to block the opening of a specialized clinic in Beverly Hills may offer a playbook for similar efforts in other cities and states.

I sat on an American Airlines flight on the tarmac at O’Hare tonight as air traffic control abandoned every flight on the tarmac for 2 hours during a violent storm where an actual tornado touched down at the airport. Air traffic control just went radio silent and left us out there

“there’s no justification for political violence” is a thing people that don’t understand climate change say

If the Democrats had any guts they would introduce an assault weapons ban into legislation this week and call it "the Donald Trump presidential candidate protection act" or something like that

Please don’t “both sides” the “violent political rhetoric” conversation when one side regularly glorifies and intimidates with guns and the other side speaks out to end gun violence. These are not the same.

It does remain startling to me how the response to the attempt on Pelosi’s husband (which was directed at her) was largely met with a shrug. Also, remember the attempt to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer? Which Biden *pointedly* brought up last night in Detroit?
My skeet about 1970s assassination attempts has a lot of "they were desensitized to political violence then, unlike now" replies. And that doesn't really ring true to me. Giffords, Pelosi's husband, January 6—we've had a lot of political violence in recent years without trans-partisan uproar.

A thing that is weird in this, the worst written timeline, is that Anne Gorsuch, the first woman to run the US Environmental Protection Agency, is responsible for the Chevron decision. Neil Gorsuch is her son. Dude chose compromising SCOTUS over family therapy.

So, uh. Where was the good guy with a gun? Wasn’t he supposed to prevent this madness.

Just going to note, regarding "political violence" that three and a half years ago, Trump was encouraging a mob of people who wanted to hang his own VP.

Terrifying journalistic bullshit from @nypost, which posted an article claiming that the shooter was a “Chinese man” (thanks @paulayoo for grabbing), then replaced it with a version that the shooter was “identified only as a white male” shortly thereafter — WITHOUT flagging the correction.

just pounding my anxiety into writing postcards to voters. If you would also like to write hundreds of postcards and mail them all in October.... join me why don't you

Adreana's super hot take - Christian Nationalist felt betrayed that Trump was attempting to tamp down the part of the GOP platform that called for a national ban on abortions so the Christian Nationalist tried to shoot Trump dead.

You know how Trump speaks off the cuff a lot? Wouldn't it be something if he opened his mouth and said "And when I'm President I'm going to do something about these guns. These guns are outta control. Have you seen my ear?"

No. No. No. Everyday American voters EACH, PERSONALLY know someone or knew someone who at 80 could genuinely say "I'm doing good now but I would not be surprised if within 4 years I will need to be in assisted living. Just like my mom at the same age." It's NOT a hard argument to make.

Bucking pressure from the Biden administration, the new Labour government of the United Kingdom is expected to drop its objections to ICC arrest warrants being issued against Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant. The UK will also contemplate whether to restore funding to UNRWA in the near future.

What they are overlooking in this article is everywhere these expats are based, provide free or cheap healthcare and transportation because their voters (and unions!) encourage it instead of tax cuts like in the US. apple.news/AqMXhmo3nSBS...
