"Landlords in New York City have apparently picked their champion in the mayor’s race: Andrew M. Cuomo."

Don’t be confused: The Senate Republican AI language includes the EXACT SAME AI moratorium as the House bill. Almost word-for-word. This is a complete, 10-year ban on state AI regulation. Period.

Are we great yet?

Ah, the golden age.

Really poignant piece of street art from artist TopZ out of Seattle!

A reminder that politicians pushing deportation don’t actually care about legality or citizenship; they want the power to eliminate and silence people of color at will.

Masked ICE thugs terrorized Chicago yesterday. They lied to immigrants waiting for their court hearing by summoning them for “surprise check-ins” and then assaulted protesters and elected officials. THIS IS WHAT FASCISM LOOKS LIKE.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a once-in-a-generation leader who has led the fight for working people in Congress. In 2018, she shocked the world and transformed our politics. On June 24, with @aoc.bsky.social’s support and this movement behind us, we will do the same.

Americans are united in making sure our food remains safe to eat.

worth remembering that when Trump announced a travel ban in 2017, people literally went to airports to protest. Eight years later, Trump announces a new one and it's not even front page news. We're the frogs and the water is getting awfully hot.

Credit where it’s due: Scott Galloway cooked here

Children should never have to experience — no less witness — their loved ones being ripped away from them. Abusing people’s trust as they attend their immigration appointments and comply with legal process is unconscionable. Enough is enough.

Phang: And listen, he’s got a beefy lawsuit here. You can imagine what discovery is going to be like once this case moves forward—because it will. It will not be dismissed…

For years we've heard from the right about "welfare queens" and other so-called "freeloaders" pulling one over on the government. But actually, it's the wealthy who are the real freeloaders — pulling one over on us all by skirting their taxes. Where is the outrage over that?

Follow the shekels

A requirement that ICE agents ensure courthouse arrests don't clash with state and local laws has been rescinded by the agency. ICE declined to explain what that means for future enforcement. www.wired.com/story/ice-qu...

This is heartbreaking. Rest in peace, Jonathan 💔

This is who Trump is handing billions of taxpayer dollars to create a database on all of us. (While all the conspiracy theorists defend his every move) Sleep tight, everybody! 😕

Walter White spitting facts:

Cuomo’s COVID nursing home policy killed over 15,000 seniors. Families are still grieving. Still demanding answers. But Cuomo refuses to face them — no apology, no accountability. We won’t forget. We won’t let him rewrite history. #AndrewCuomo @dreamfornyc.bsky.social

WATCH: “You stand in my church. You promised me.” A Minneapolis pastor confronts the chief of police about helping ICE

We don’t celebrate Pride for the rainbows or parades, we do it because *right now* someone out there believes they don’t deserve love, just because of who they are or who they love.   That’s why we celebrate Pride—because we want to build a world where no one feels that way.

There’s probably not an open bar. www.politico.com/news/2025/06...

South Florida meteorologist @johnmoralestv.bsky.social told his viewers live on air that he can no longer accurately predict hurricane season, due to federal government cuts.

MAJOR BREAKING Democrat Keishan Scott WINS the special election for South Carolina's 50th State House District, defeating Republican William Oden by over 41 points in a district Kamala Harris won by about 5 in 2024. 🔵 Scott - 70.6% 🔴 Oden - 29.4% 🔵 Harris 51% 🔴 Trump 45.8%

Minneapolis… San Diego… Folks are pushing back. This is only going to get worse.

PRO PUBLICA: Of the 238 men sent to an El Salvador mega prison, only 6 had prior violent crime convictions. 0 were on the gang member list. 130 had no criminal history. 32 had minor offenses. All 238 thought they were being sent back to Venezuela. www.instagram.com/p/DKcjM7FPhz...

I don't really care if Elon Musk called Trump's awful bill a "disgusting abomination" (which it is) I DO care that he and Trump destroyed USAID Allegedly causing the deaths of 300,000 people-with 200,000 children among them And then CELEBRATED it

“Y’all, we did it — Tulsa just created a $105 million reparations plan for the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre.” (From @thebwstimes.bsky.social )

Gender affirming care is *not illegal* in 31 states. This FBI announcement is designed to make it sound like a ban on gender affirming care is the law of the land. It is not. Besides which, surgical procedures are almost never performed on trans people younger than 18.

Jonathan Joss--voice actor of John Redcorn from King of the Hill, and Ken Hotate from Parks and Rec--was killed in a homophobic hate crime today. I'm so angry.

BREAKING: First, ICE agents deported a man for honking at undercover documents. Then, they signed deportation authorization documents on his behalf. Insanity. www.masslive.com/news/2025/06...

Donald Trump just approved the largest meat company in the world to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange—completely ignoring its history of corruption and bribery. Why? Maybe because they donated $5M to his inauguration. I'm pressing for answers.

BREAKING: The new head of FEMA told staff he did not know that the United States had a hurricane season. Yes, I am serious. www.reuters.com/world/us/fem...

Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen.

Arresting kids on their way to volleyball practice is a new low, even for this Administration. www.wcvb.com/article/milf...

ICE arrested a student on the way to volleyball practice in Milford, detained people waiting at an immigration court in Boston, smashed a car window of the wrong person in New Bedford, and the list goes on. Communities are right to speak out. This isn’t making us safer.

San Diego erupts at ICE raiding a local restaurant and detaining ALL staff.
