Let's recap: Arizona Republicans are campaigning on the idea that they're not in favor of a full abortion ban...

... while in actuality repeatedly blocking any effort by Dems to debate repealing or weakening the 1864 anti-abortion law.

Once again today, twice:

Today's must read is Karlie Kloss's Washington Post Opinions piece. It's about giving Americans the right to choose whether or not to have an abortion, but its also about cynical politicians making it harder for voters to choose their laws. This bit made me furious:

To our nation's young leaders: we see you, we hear you, and we need you.

It is because you organized and marched that President Biden and I were able to pass the most significant gun safety legislation in nearly 30 years.

I’m in Ohio because insurrectionist Rep. Jim Jordan continues to spread the same lies that led to the violence on January 6th. Not only is this rhetoric dangerous, it’s un-American.

US per capita CO2 emissions now at 1913 levels. In 1913 only 1% of Americans had indoor plumbing and electricity 😮

VP: Trump wants us to believe he will not sign a national ban…. Enough with gaslighting. When someone tells you who they are, believe them the first time. Donald Trump has told us who he is

The new Student Debt Relief Plan from President Biden is extremely comprehensive and would actually give much more substantial and life-changing relief to the people who need it most than the original proposal struck down by the Supreme Court.

This is a big deal.

Donald Trump just said he supports extreme abortion bans across the country that criminalize doctors, threaten IVF, and force rape victims to give birth: “That’s what they will be”

Here is what Trump is supporting.

I said I wouldn't back down from using every tool at our disposal to get student loan borrowers the relief they need.

That's why today we're announcing new plans that, if implemented, would cancel student debt for millions more.

Shout out Axios for understanding that age ≠ generations! For anyone paying attention, it is NOT surprising that seniors in 2024 support Biden. Boomers ❤️ Dems.

The Biden ad reservations in the fall (by the Super PAC largely) are wild, per AdImpact/FT.
Will make it harder for Trump’s team to book some of it.
