I spoke with @tiffanymuller.bsky.social on @endcitizensunited.bsky.social's survey of likely 2026 battleground voters. Independents were highly persuadable on anti-corruption messaging, shifting 15 points toward Democrats (52-37), while traditional Democratic messaging left them evenly split (45-45)

Today we thank Speaker Nancy Pelosi — a brilliant, strategic leader with a heart as big as Mount Rushmore. She gave her heart to this country and to everyone she served. Thank you for your leadership, your care and your incredible legacy.

As we prepare for the 2026 midterms, who ensures access to reliable information? In our #FirstMondaysWebinar, @jgo4justice.bsky.social warns: while AI companies draw trillions in investment, the burden of navigating misinformation is falling on the public. www.psgconsulting.com/videos/v/ame...

@ifpg.bsky.social seeks to understand & address foundational challenges facing our country. Robert P. Jones of PPRI has done a magnificent job in "Backslide: Reclaiming a Faith and a Nation After the Christian Turn Against Democracy" explaining the Christian Right & Christian nationalism's impact.

An @endcitizensunited.bsky.social survey shows that 53% of voters want Congress to make reducing corruption a “very big priority.” Yet, many believe Republicans — even when they disagree on policy — represent change, while Democrats are seen as defending the system.

AI and large language models (LLMs) are increasingly shaping what voters understand to be true. In our latest #FirstMondaysWebinar, we ask: who is shaping the information that trains these systems?

@mmfa.bsky.social analyzed 320 popular ideologically-driven online shows, and 9 out of 10 are right-leaning. These 9 shows had a combined following of over 480M people across platforms — nearly 5x as many as left-leaning shows. www.mediamatters.org/google/right...

In a recent discussion with screenwriter and political strategist @billyray5229.bsky.social, he highlighted some surprising data. When asked what percentage of the population was transgender, Americans polled said 21%. The actual number is >1%. The pattern holds for other minority groups as well.

Our latest #FirstMondaysWebinar explored how culture shapes our understanding of democracy — and why that understanding is key to protecting it. We discussed 4 forces pushing us toward authoritarianism: othering, distrust in institutions, distortion of facts, and religious & nationalist movements.

Big Beautiful Bill Betrayals: Trump promised to work for the working class, then Congress passed legislation that betrayed those who put him in office. This legislation makes it harder for everyday Americans to afford food & healthcare & to access services. There is one word for this bill: cruel.

No one connected to Jeffrey Epstein’s trafficking network should escape scrutiny. As Congress prepares to question Sarah Kellen, we must follow the facts, release the files, and follow the money — including more than $1.5 billion in suspicious wire transfers.

Ossoff: "It makes a difference who represents us. When you sent me and Sen. Warnock to the Senate, we capped the cost of insulin at $35.
