John Prine would've turned 74 today, but he died from COVID-19 complications earlier this year. This is his Tiny Desk concert. trib.al/CkYmeAi

In a sense, yes. I fear that many Americans are so sure that everything will be ok because this is America, that they can’t see how very close we are to losing fundamental freedoms & rights that we have taken for granted.

The ODNI has cancelled all further briefings on foreign election interference. The Administration clearly does not want Congress or the country informed of what Russia is doing. The last DNI was fired for doing so, and the IC has now been fully brought to heel. Our statement:

The Postmaster General must resign. He’s slowed delivery, banned overtime & decommissioned mail-sorting machines. Right before the election. During a pandemic. The House must demand answers. Hearings should start now. It can’t wait. We won’t let Trump destroy the Post Office.

I don’t want to hear any bitching and moaning after Joe Biden picks his VP. Many people are going to be disappointed, no matter who he picks. But this should be a moment for Democrats to unite. So practice grace in congratulating the pick now. I’m serious.

I spend a lot of time trying to warn people about this. Let's say it clearly and concisely. The American Right is captured in a dangerous, manufactured alternate reality where they're convinced their fellow Americans are engaged in a conspiracy that requires fascistic measures.

Former teacher perspective: It's a trap to get sucked into the "teachers are heroes" narrative. If schools reopen & teachers die, I guarantee we'll hear ppl (namely politicians) say things like "that teacher was a hero, they gave their lives" etc. No. Reject this, now and later.

Father's Day is a good day to remind people that all phone calls and video calls for incarcerated people should be free in every prison and jail across the country. Not just during a pandemic, not just during holidays, not as a special privilege. But for everyone, all year round.

More than 120,000 Americans have died. Tens of millions are unemployed. Families are witnessing their loved one’s last moments by FaceTime. Trump’s response: slow down testing to hide infection rates. Trump's deadly incompetence is no joke.

Kentucky voters received inaccurate absentee ballots that do not match their party affiliations. In Kentucky, voters must be members of a party to participate in its primary elections. The polling places dropped from 3700 to just 200. This shit sounds sneaky & deliberate.

Bolton is a rock-ribbed conservative. There’s not a RINO bone in his body. He was Trump’s national security adviser for 17 months. He saw Trump every day, up close, as president. He won’t vote for him again. He thinks a second Trump term would be too dangerous for the country.

If I’m reading this right, Brad Parscale is asserting they had in the neighborhood of 1 million legitimate ticket requests vetted by the campaign, and some light protests kept around 993,800 people from entering the event.
