Mike Lee still has this complete lie up.

The same day political violence took lives, GOP candidate for governor Winsome Earle-Sears told a clergy luncheon: “We’ve got huge firepower… flak jackets… grenades. We’re gonna use them.” This isn’t leadership—it’s a threat. Virginians deserve better than this reckless, violent thinking.

The fact that this even needs to be said shows how far around the bend the Republikans are.

Saudi Arabia has executed another journalist, Turki Al-Jasser, after 7 years of detention for reporting on corruption. The failure to hold Saudi Arabia accountable for the murder of Jamal Khashoggi only encourages further acts of deadly violence against journalists in the Persian Gulf & elsewhere.

He is an example of homegrown terrorism. Let’s not sugarcoat who he is; he is inspired by extreme right-wing, Christian Nationalist ideology. This IS terrorism.

Christian Nationalism is dangerous

When Congress funded the DOD, there was no line item for big-boy birthday presidential military parades. Where did the money for Trump’s vainglorious spectacle come from? Cutting Army pay and benefits? Reducing training? Or just Departmental slush funds from bloated annual budgets?

If you recognize this pair of wannabe ICE impersonators who appeared at the Miami “No Kings” protest today, please get in touch. We will make them famous. 😈

I know a guy who is online posting about “No Kings.. But he’s a Royal Family supporter.. Be for real, dude!

Donald Trump is a mad king. He’s deported a 4-year old and arrested a U.S. Senator. Between those two fall the rest of us. He must be stopped.

We’ve truly lost our way in this country. An 80-year-old vet who fought for this country just got arrested protesting Trump‘s parade. He deserves respect, not handcuffs.

It should not be lost on anyone that Minnesota Rep Melissa Hortman, who was shot to death in her home last night by an assassin, was a gun safety advocate who worked tirelessly to protect her constituents from gun violence.

The East Coast has shown up, 2.4 million and counting, with massive turnouts in small towns across the country. Shoutout to the Carolinas, Georgia, and Ohio for showing up strong!

With the tragic assassination of a Minnesota Democratic leader, I’m going to underline this point again.

There’s nothing on the main page of the @washingtonpost.com about the assault on Senator Padilla by DHS chuds. Legacy media is dead.

The tRUmp regime has deputized members of the Proud Boys, Oath Keepers and 3 Percenters to act as ICE agents. Hence the masks and lack of ID.

This is how it’s done!!!

A Democratic Mayor arrested. A Democratic Congresswoman indicted. A Democratic Senator tackled and detained. A Democratic State Representative killed. A Democratic State Representative in critical condition. We can all see where this is going.

Last night, Capitol Police arrested roughly 60 veterans and their family members outside the U.S. Capitol. The group had gathered to hold a peaceful sit-in on the Capitol steps, but police intentionally set up a barrier of bike racks to prevent them from demonstrating.

"In a previously unreported development, federal agents came to suspect that Bukele and members of his inner circle had diverted US aid funds to the gang." Read the whole investigation, republished from @propublica.org ⬇️

Call your senators, demand they shut the Senate down.

""It's really hard to fathom that the guy making my pizza for 25 years is a gangster and a terrorist, and the person who shows up in an unmarked car wearing a mask and body armor comes to take him away is somehow the good guy," said Simon..." www.wnep.com/article/news...

If you're heading to a protest tomorrow, it's important to know your rights. Consult this information from the ACLU. Be peaceful. Be safe. Be careful. Be strong.

Our corporate-owned food system is decimating ecosystems & driving insects to extinction. But without insects we have no food system. We urgently take food out of the hands of multinationals, we change what we eat & how we produce it. Or we watch a planet starve.

This is on all the Senators who turned a blind eye and voted to confirm. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/09/h...

The 17 members of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s independent vaccine advisory committee are being removed from their posts, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said Monday afternoon.

As the USA descends into chaos, we are witnessing what happens when a populist government is in power. When the BBC’s constant promotion of Reform leads us down a similar path, they will no doubt bang on about hindsight. #r4today

California AG Bonta: I, in partnership with Governor Gavin Newsom, are suing President Trump and asking the court to set aside the president's unlawful action federalizing the California National Guard.

ICE agents better start reading up on the Nuremberg trials. Because when we get to the other side of this, and we will, "I was just following orders" ain't gonna cut it.

Lindsey Graham and his allies are targeting MEDICARE to pay for their “big beautiful bill.” Patients fighting cancer shouldn’t have to fight their senator too. I’ll be a senator that fights for you, not the Swamp.

If you think about it, it's not surprising that the orange rapist felon keeps putting people with no experience in charge of shit they know nothing about. Insurance companies have been over-riding doctors for decades, and who knows if they even have college degrees. We've allowed greed to win.

Over 70 legal experts have sent the Florida Bar an ethics complaint calling for an investigation and "appropriate sanctions" against U.S. AG Bondi, accusing her of engaging in "serious professional misconduct that threatens the rule of law and the administration of justice."

#ProudBlue Trump wonders why everything he does has fallen apart since he took office He knows nothing about governing & instead of hiring experts, he’s appointed the most unqualified people to employ Trump hired a 22-year-old kid who is a lawnmower for hire to lead our nation’s terror prevention

In 1938, a woman stood on the picket line in Richmond, Virginia, holding a sign that read, Our boss owns 77 houses. We can’t pay rent. She was a tobacco worker, striking for fair wages and basic dignity. A century later, her message still echoes — a stark reminder that some struggles never end.

Eventually, when all is said and done, we will realize that the United States owes Kamala Harris a presidency.

So are we just teaching our kids they have to obey anyone with a mask and an unmarked car and an oddly-fitting vest and zip ties now and go with them? Is this where we’re at?

Are we great yet?

Melon: time to drop the really big bomb - was Starlink used to manipulate the 2024 election?

Wow. Avelo airlines has covered up their logo to hide the fact that they're helping with mass deportation. Avelo's customer service number is (346) 616-9500. Feel free to give them a call and tell them how you feel about them.

Why the fuck am I paying taxes if we won’t feed kids at school and keep them safe while there? Fuck all you morons for allowing things to be like this.

BREAKING: HHS just killed a $600M Moderna contract for pandemic flu vaccines. The platform: mRNA—the fastest we have against threats like H5N1. The reason? RFK Jr.’s skepticism. The risk? Deadly delays when the next pandemic hits. www.statnews.com/2025/05/28/m... #BlueSky #MedSky #SciSky #IDSky
