Here’s something you won’t hear from many Democrats: In 2016, I voted for Trump. Here’s something you won’t hear from many politicians: I was wrong.  And here’s something you won’t hear from anyone on either side: Republicans are failing America, and Democrats are failing to stop them. That’s why I’m running for Congress: I know what makes Trump tick, and I know how to fight him. It’s time we put a Democrat in Congress who can stand up to him and win. This fight is personal to me, and I’m ready to get in the ring. But we need to raise $25,000 every week between now and the NY-12 primary on June 23rd to keep this campaign going strong. Can I count on you to stand with me with a $5 donation before midnight? gc4ny.com/Here-Is-Someth…

Many years ago I hurt my knee playing sports. I was referred to the orthopedist for one of the local pro teams. After keeping me waiting for 2.5 hours, he diagnosed a cartilage tear and recommended surgery. I was so mad at his manner and tardiness I left without scheduling. The next week I got a second opinion from a much younger doc who was likely more current on the recent medical literature. He looked at the same MRI. He said he could do surgery now but his advice was to wait 30 days and see if it healed on its own. It did. Medical reversal is when a practice that became widely used is later shown to be ineffective or even harmful. Examples like meniscus surgery show the need to keep gathering evidence. A not immaterial part of the practice of modern medicine doesn't improve health, and may be net harmful.

Trump’s Supreme Court just gutted the Voting Rights Act. Decades of hard-fought voting rights progress – gone. MAGA is deliberately silencing voters who will stand with Democrats to take back the House and STOP Donald Trump for good. Which means the stakes of this Midterm just went through the roof. So, it’s time to lock in, and I need you with me. Rush $10 right now to help flip the House, take the fight to this criminal administration, and END Donald Trump’s presidency for GOOD → gc4ny.com/SCOTUS-VRA

Brussels has long had a reputation as one of Europe’s most congested cities: one of traffic jams, polluted air, and streets dominated by cars. Yet in recent years, the capital has become an unlikely case study in how bold political leadership can reclaim urban space for people.🧵

Often the smartest transportation investments aren’t the most expensive ones. Villo!, Brussels’ public (e-)bike system, has one of the lowest barriers to entry: €1.50 per day or €3.50 per month for unlimited half-hour rides (starting at just €4 per month for electric bikes).🧵

I feel like the Americans would benefit greatly from local pub culture. In the U.S., socializing often means making plans and driving - and we treat dancing like it’s only for young people clubbing. What if you could just…walk down the street and hang with neighbors?

@gtconway3d Security screw-ups suck but the guy was arrested fast and Trump was safe. These agencies are still recovering from Biden’s mess. Blaming Trump for everything is getting old, George.

"When so many officials gather in one place for official functions … the secretary of homeland security typically puts the Secret Service in charge of coordinating all security through a formal designation known as a 'National Special Security Event.' "There was no such designation on Saturday night …."
The Washington Post@washingtonpost

Breaking news: The Trump administration provided a lower level of security for the White House correspondents’ dinner than it has for other gatherings of high-ranking officials, according to officials familiar with the plan. wapo.st/4eb1pRg

Trump: I knew you would read that because you're horrible people. I'm not a rapist. I didn't rape anybody. I'm not a pedophile. O'Donnell: Oh, you think he was referring to you? Trump: I got associated with stuff that has nothing to do with me. I was totally exonerated. You shouldn't be reading that on 60 Minutes. You're a disgrace O'Donnell: Mr. President, these are the gunman's words.

Trump fell asleep again during a live televised meeting. If Joe Biden had done that, the media would have treated it like a national emergency and run wall-to-wall panic coverage for a week. But when Trump does it, they look the other way because the clown show keeps their ratings up and their pockets full. The hypocrisy is disgraceful. The media failed the country, and they know it.

The level of bullshit coming from this Administration about Canada is frightening. I guess he forgot about Canada giving them cheap oil and our Electric Dams powering 7 States at a reduced price. We already know he doesn’t understand how tariffs work, trust me, he has no clue how Canada works.

We'd prefer not to business with arrogant bullies who don't respect other countries. So F you Lutnick.
Acyn@Acyn

Shaheen: How does insulting our closest ally and neighbor help the businesses in my state and states all across this country who are hurting because of the loss of Canadian business and tourism? Lutnick: Canada's economy leans on the incredible $30 trillion economy of America. Shaheen: We have all those Canadian visitors who are not coming because of your comments and comments by the administration. How does that help our economy? Lutnick: It is outrageous that Canada will not put U.S. Spirits on the shelf. Shaheen: And they won't do it because of the insults from this president and comments like yours.

It's almost pointless trying to point out factual errors—what's important is to impress the orange smirking fool
Brian Krassenstein@krassenstein

OMFG... AGAIN! RFK Jr. just doubled down on Trump's FAKE math: He claims that if a drug drops from $600 to $100 that’s a "600% savings". No you Imbecile, once again if a drug drops from $600 to $100, that’s a drop of 83.33%, not 600%. My 9-year-old son in 3rd grade understands this.

@sciencegirl Taking a small iodine supplement. Low iodine caused my paralyzing anxiety attacks. Functional Dr tested me for iodine, and it was very, very low. 225mcg of iodine 3 times a week=panic attacks completely gone for 8 years. Also riding my trike with my dog.
