The future of our democracy will be decided in Wisconsin
Wisconsin Democrats 1% of the vote. That's all it took for Trump to win Wisconsin in 2016...and for President Biden to win it in 2020. If we're going to protect our Senate majority and President Biden a chance to fix the Supreme Court, we're going to need to win Wisconsin. We cannot afford to let Donald Trump stack the court with more right-wing activists. Will you become a monthly donor to Wisconsin Democrats to help build the machine that will power Democrats to victory next year?
Conservative influencers are now pushing anti-birth control messages
And in other incredibly not shocking news, the right-wing assault on reproductive freedom has, of course, already extended into an assault on birth control, with neo-fascist blowhards Tim Pool, Ben Shapiro, and Steve Bannon leading the charge. Since "small government" apparently includes dictating strangers' sex lives, we respectfully suggest these pundits and their disciples go fuck themselves.

In a huge leap forward for improving mental health, Australia legalized the prescription of MDMA, also known as ecstasy, for PTSD and psilocybin, the psychoactive ingredient in psychedelic mushrooms, for people with hard-to-treat depression.

2 dead, 28 injured in Baltimore mass shooting
Another weekend, another mass shooting, more senseless loss of life. To be clear, this is a direct result of Republicans blocking the most sensible protections against gun violence, and Republican officials again have blood on their hands.

Meme-filled Ron DeSantis ad attacking Trump blasted as homophobic
Gay Republicans — yep, somehow still a thing — took issue with a new video shared by Ron DeSantis attacking Donald Trump’s stance on LGBTQ rights in a desperate attempt by the real-life Disney villain to find any footing in his floundering presidential campaign.
