From one of my favorite organizations doing the most out there, the ACLU: We filed another emergency lawsuit — this time in federal court — against Louisiana officials for suspending the state’s primary election after voting has already begun.
Louisiana is disenfranchising voters who have already cast ballots, all in the service of stifling Black voting power. (original thread here) *support ACLU with a monthly donation and/or grabbing some merch here!

This is a great “top 10 list”! Mayor Mamdani is truly a man of the people! Wonderful that Mariska Hargitay (Law & Order SVU) is involved with supporting rape kit reform in all 50 States! Awesome news about Timmy the whale being released! We have a long fight ahead of us with the Trumplican voter suppression… but we will succeed against these cheaters. Hopefully SPIRIT Airlines can be saved… maybe if people start boycotting all major airlines, it might have an impact. I’ll be checking the obits for Giuliani 👍
Thank you❤️ for the quick and concise rundown with links to learn more. And yay for Timmy 🐋💙 🐳
