Kamala Harris: "By many indicators our economy is the strongest in the world. But while inflation is down and wages are up, prices are still too high. You know it and I know it ... on day one i will take on price gouging and bring down costs."

Donald Trump held a SUMMIT with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu.
As a private citizen. At Mar-a-Lago.
The Logan Act is a federal law forbidding private citizens from negotiating with foreign governments.
TRUMP IS BREAKING THE LAW — YET AGAIN

"We continue to call for Venezuela’s electoral authorities to release full, transparent, and detailed voting results, including by polling station. This is especially critical given that there are clear signs that the election results announced by Venezuela’s National Electoral Council do not reflect the will of the Venezuelan people as it was expressed at the ballot box on July 28." - White House

"It’s a hard time to find joy and peace as a #Jewish person right now. With intense tragedy unfolding in front of our eyes, an unsettling election ahead of us and #antisemitism on the rise, the things that may have brought us joy about our Jewish identity in the past often feel out of reach or even trivial right now.
But choosing joy is a radical act. Finding moments of celebration is an act of resistance."

Extreme heat is making schools hotter — and learning harder https://www.tucsonsentinel.com/nationworld/report/073024_heat_schools/extreme-heat-making-schools-hotter-and-learning-harder/
Children have a harder time thermo-regulating and take longer to produce sweat, making them more vulnerable than adults to heat exhaustion and illness, and now the effect extreme heat is having on schools and child care is starting to get the attention of policymakers and researchers.

Iowa is the latest to ban abortion > "six weeks"
In fact: "six weeks since last menstrual period ended". Ovulation only happens 7-10 days later.
"Six weeks" is just enough time to be "a bit late" … if one's cycle is regular, but most are not.
Things that can delay the cycle include:*
▪ exercise
▪ travel across time zones
▪ stress
So it's effectively a 0-to-4-week abortion ban.
Or, a Total Abortion Ban, for short. 😭
Perhaps the women in M∆G∆'s ideal world never deal with these?

@MiriShuli Evangelicals are globalists, they organize internationally, as does all of the far right. They talk a lot about "evil globalists" and "patriotism" to distract everyone from the fact that they're the evil globalists (a bit like the Catholic church starts satanic panics to distract from their systemic enabling and protecting of pedophiles).
And corporations love this narrative too because it distracts from their evil global machinations. This is also why they hate the UN and international socialism, global organizations that can bring people (and nations) together to get in the way of their exploitation of the world. The evangelicals are very handy for oil and mining corporations because they convince people that a climate catastrophe is a good thing and will only harm the rest of us "evil" people.

Trump's statements about ending elections could disappear down the memory hole, buried by his next nonsensical boast or outrageous lie. Don’t move on. Don’t let this go. Or Project 2025 either.

Ukrainian Child after another missile ATTACK on peaceful Ukrainians.
A Ukrainian girl is asked by her mom after a russian missile attack,
“Are your hands shaking?”
“Yeah..” says the girl.
👉 Russia has killed thousands of children & kidnapped tens of thousands of children while scarring millions of them.
@littlemiao I need to see if my brother carries those!
@littlemiao So what brand is it?
@SrRochardBunson First Christians appropriated the Passover Seder and now they want to use it to justify being angry. 🤷♀️@tofugolem@mastodon.social
