With so much going on in our world, we sometimes miss important issues. Please feel free to share any headlines or new developments we may have missed providing they come from reliable and credible sources. If your news pertains to Putin’s war of choice in Ukraine, please do not parrot any Russian propaganda from far-right ‘news’ sources unless you’re trying to point out that the far-right extremist in our country and elsewhere actually believe their own BS or Russian disinformation. We also will not except any parroted far-right BS regarding issues occurring here, at home. We also ask that you provide a link to your source so folks can read it if they want. Please do not make any claims that you cannot factually validate or verify.

Babbitt was a terrorist calling for the death of Pence and Pelosi. She wore a backpack that could have held guns or bombs when she breached the chamber where congress was voting. She was warned but would not stop. The officer was cleared. Should he have let her confront congress? pic.twitter.com/ZyMrDaKKQF

Who knew that the best way to end a congressional stalemate with the Freedom Caucus was to have a drunk guy in a wig attack Matt Gaetz.

This is beyond disappointing. Ohio will now have the strictest voter ID law in the country.

To be clear: our elections are already secure. This anti-democratic law will only hurt voters, especially students; active duty military, seniors & BIPOC Ohioans.https://t.co/xw4o4nDrAz
