Right after Trump has been pleading Putin's case at the G-7

Double TACO or just Stephen Miller being the latest person to talk to Trump? wapo.st/43PPwus

House GOP going after the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops as well as Catholic Charities (among other do-gooders) in a quest for retroactive punishment of those who have dared provide services to immigrants. www.osvnews.com/usccb-cathol...

@jvl.bsky.social I assume you have seen this news... definitely worth amplifying.

Pay attention, Catholic conservatives (including those of you with the black robes). You’re next:

Oregon Iris from the backyard

Troops and marines deeply troubled by LA deployment: ‘Morale is not great’ www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Incredible.

The 35-star Union flag crushed white supremacists in 1864. May it help us repeat the task #NoKings #Basta

On this "No Kings Day" I recommend a reading of.... the Declaration of Independence.... Most of us have not read it for years, and it rings true and load at this time (more so then ever. in my life) -- www.archives.gov/founding-doc...

Happy birthday to the United States Army, which swears allegiance to the U.S. Constitution and serves no man, no king, and no wannabe dictator.

Things could get very ugly very quickly. And folks like Senator Cassidy, who allowed this to happen, have a unique responsibility to try and stop it—if that’s even possible at this juncture.

Stephen Miller must be apoplectic as Trump tries to TACO the most obviously self-destructive parts of his ethnic cleansing policies www.nytimes.com/2025/06/13/u...

For No Kings Day... youtu.be/SfICbSL6Vm0?...

Wake Up America!

I love these adorable, lethal robots and the fact they were crowdfunded by the fine fellas of NAFO for the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

Black Block must be in MAGA pay

Trump's approval ratings -- *especially* on immigration -- are eroding fast. [See Silver's 6/12 round-up: www.natesilver.net/p/trump-appr... ] Will the conventional wisdom be revised to reflect this reality?

Fascinating profile of the center-right French senator who spoke so powerfully against what Trump is doing to America www.nytimes.com/2025/06/11/w...

The real joke here is that he's neither--he's Thenardier.

@jvl.bsky.social @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social In re: today's podcast, another red town rallies around an ICE hostage www.thebaltimorebanner.com/community/lo...

Time for the bourgeoisie and working class to take the lead of the popular protest movement. The idiosyncratic agendas of collegiate intifada-globalizers and Black Bloc types are not of the moment.

Whatever happened to Glen Powell? He was in 50% of movies last year. Is he too old now?

Suddenly we are all left like Zelensky in 2019 as he waited for the funding that Russ Vought had impounded illegally on Trump's behalf.

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.” They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

More than 6000 scientists have signed a declaration condemning "Administration policies that undermine the NIH mission, waste public resources, and harm the health of Americans and people across the globe" www.standupforscience.net/bethesda-dec...

For those who live elsewhere, this is the heart of downtown #LosAngeles. My friends are here. My union is here (sup @wgawest.bsky.social). My teenager is here. People are passing out pastries & singing & praying. All we want is for our neighbors not to be kidnapped off the streets.

the Senate confirmed this guy and we did not even talk about how he believes that diseases are caused by miasmas like some kind of pre-Victorian fop

Where is our national nonviolent coordinating committee?

By a president who avoided serving in Vietnam.

This needs as much coverage as protests or ICE raids. Los Angelenos FTW. ❤️🙌

Hate is the only plausible explanation for Stephen Miller's words and actions. www.thebulwark.com/p/the-making...
