  1. I’m waiting to hear plans to #CodifyRoeVWade #expand the court. I want #dems or #independents to be more aggressive. We need to counter attack. In every possible way.
    Huge action on #climate
    My reps know I need them to step up or step aside.

  3. I have seen the raw grief of a family who lost a son to gambling. Labor’s stitch-up shows politics is broken | David Pocock
    By David Pocock

    How is it that Australians can call so strongly for action on gambling advertising and the major parties fail so comprehensively to listen?

  4. CW: #AusPol

    Really grim proceedings in the House of Representatives today. The #Labor Party hand in hand with the #Liberals and #Nationals.

    Occasionally, a few in the LNP cross the floor to vote uselessly against the fix.

    Each division has the #Greens and the #Independents sitting together, consistently and determinedly representing the vast majority of Australians.

    #Labor whether Feds or State (with exception ACT) is as doomed as LNP if it keeps occupying Center-right politics. So, yes, what's are the alternatives. I'd say small L #independents and More savvy #Greens but they're a long way to go. Hence get used to what we've got because LNP+PHON isn't going to get us anywhere but down the gurgler.

    Apologies for butting-in to the conversation, I can't help myself where politics are concerned -- tragic... yes I know.

  7. BREAKING: In a Stunning Admission, Mike Johnson just told reporters that he plans to cut both Medicare & Medicaid after the midterm elections We can STOP THIS BY ELECTING Gary Crockett for United States Senate AND Never Vote Republican #Louisiana #NoParty #democrats #independents #vote #healthcare

  8. One reason #BillCassidy was willing to break with #Trump 5 years ago is that #Louisiana had a different #election system than it does now. From 1975 until this year, the top 2 finishers on Election Day, regardless of party, would face each other in a runoff if neither garnered 50%. That allowed a #Republican like Cassidy to win by assembling a coalition that included #independents & moderate #Democrats.

  9. "In the past, conservative critics of Trump have usually complained that he has sold out the views and values associated with figures such as Ronald Reagan. Now, criticism of Trump within the conservative camp is for the first time being framed as a betrayal of the supposed values on which the MAGA movement was founded."

  10. "The fulfillment of promises can’t be deferred forever without voters starting to lose patience. As Viktor Orbán learned to his chagrin in Hungary, there comes a time when leaders are measured by their results rather than their rhetoric. And that time has now come for Donald Trump."

  11. "Participants gave him low grades overall, with none awarding top marks and several calling his leadership harmful or embarrassing."

  12. "A focus group organized by The New York Times found that most participants who voted for Donald Trump regret their decision, with nine out of 12 expressing disappointment in his second term. Many described his presidency negatively, citing issues like immigration policies, economic concerns, and ongoing controversies."

  13. Absolutely! #AusPol Just a completely pathetic outcome, but not surprising given the @[email protected] record of late. Desperately need more #Independents & #Greens to achieve real positive change! 💐🥂@davidpocock.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

  14. "The MAGA faithful are overwhelmingly sticking with the president. Not so for everyone else. A number of new polls show that some of the voting blocs that helped power Trump’s 2024 win have lost faith in him: His support among young people has cratered; so has his approval among Latinos."
