Hello from Berlin where a few hundred Americans are outside the embassy, currently reading aloud from the Declaration of Independence. #nokings

"Sheriff has history of cop-like behavior"

Chicago congresswoman @repdeliaramirez hands Kristi Noem a letter of resignation and encourages her to use it 👀

The president's powers are so broad because "the twin assumptions have always been that no president would want to deploy the military against American citizens and if such a depraved individual did come to power, the public would swiftly repudiate him."

Oops! Almost forgot!

My great Uncle was shot down during WWII. My Dad & Uncles were in the Korean War. My Cousins were drafted to Vietnam & died from AO cancer. They are in Arlington & the sick orange fuck trampled on them. My Brothers & I served in the AF, Army & Navy. 🖕the disgraceful orange POS bone spur traitor!🖕

KINZINGER: “The thing that disturbed me more than anything was watching the soldiers cheering and booing at his speech. That was a failure of command.”

Why doesn’t Trump hire Americans?

This man is my hero because he’s a member of the United States Air Force and is standing by his #Oath to the #Constitution! I’m hoping that since he has taken the lead others will follow because this is what a true American Soldier looks like! Remember your Oath to the Constitution

ICE is going to parks in Los Angeles and kidnapping nannies who are caring for small children The children are witnessing these kidnappings and being held in custody until their parents are contacted Women and children in parks

We’re at war with Iran, Trump’s gone into hiding, nobody will tell us our objectives, plan or end game, our Sec of Defense is a useless dipshit, our Sec of State lied about it, our DNI loves the leader of Iran’s greatest ally, & tomorrow we’re having a parade for Trump’s bday.

(🚨) On June 14, 2025, the Summer of Protest formally begins. We should expect weeks and weeks of various forms of tumult that will change our country forever. PROOF has created a primer to help you understand some of the events MAGAs will distort to try to end American democracy.

Yup, he unilaterally broke that deal & replaced it with a BIG BEAUTIFUL nothing.

Breaking News: More people have died in ICE detention than died at Fort Sumter in the opening battle of America’s first Civil War.

Nine years ago today, 49 people were murdered & 53 injured at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando. Today we grieve for those lost and for their families and their loved ones.

I don’t really have words to explain how it feels to see Kristi Noem standing on a street in East LA that looks like the street I grew up on in East LA with an invading military force trying to kidnap people who look like the neighbors I grew up with. It stays with you, spiritually.

Covid vaccination protects against severe kidney damage, study suggests A new study finds that patients hospitalized for Covid were less likely to suffer severe kidney damage if they were vaccinated.

Kristi Noem, Dr. Phil, and ICE went to this woman’s home in Huntington Park, CA at 6am to make a spectacle and you want me to be satisfied with @governor.ca.gov flowery words? Watch. It’s disgusting. Noem belongs in prison.

This audience member might have just broken Jon #AfterTheCut

The liar who promised to keep us out of foreign wars just got us involved in a foreign war.

Rep Lauren Boebert (R) suggests Sen Padilla (D) committed a federal crime by interfering with officers. Boebert has expertise on that (based on her own 2015 arrest) and a history of supporting law enforcement (except the officers attacked by J6 rioters, whose pardons she backed)

“The president’s grand military parade has something else in common with the ‘election integrity’ rally that preceded the January 6 insurrection: It’s being organized by some of the same political operatives.” www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Kilmar Abrego Garcia pled not guilty in court today. The hearing reviewed "evidence" presented to the grand jury. That evidence was proven to be laughably impossible to completely unprovable. www.politico.com/news/2025/06...

Sarah Stillman investigates a widespread crisis of deaths by starvation in America’s county jails. Most of the victims she identified had been arrested in the midst of a mental-health crisis, often on petty charges tied to their psychiatric distress.

I really need this Bobby story right now

What’s the point of science if you have an administration that refuses to acknowledge it and use it? We aren’t even civilized enough now to demand science in our government!!?!?! Kooks and dumb shits are dominating the USA!!?!?!

Yeah that’s what’s happening. He heard the cries of the innocent. Like Moses.

THE AMERICAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION CALLS FOR A SENATE INVESTIGATION INTO RFK, JR. "The resolution’s sponsor, Dr. Jason Goldman, urged his colleagues to support the request for an investigation to ensure the AMA is not “on the wrong side of history.” chicago.suntimes.com/health/2025/...

NEW: This hurricane season, forecasters will go without a key tool as NOAA won't have a fleet of drone ships to use for intercepting nature's fiercest Atlantic tempests. (1/2)

If you'll allow me to say it, The Onion is cooking with gas today.

There's simply no good reason for the Supreme Court to refuse to livestream its opinion announcements.

Ironic. Dr. Oz, who oversees CMS, broke the law by handing immigrants' medical records to ICE to assist their mass deportations. Oz is himself the son of Turkish immigrants. He served in the Turkish Army and is a dual citizen of Turkey and the US. You think he'd respect his roots. NO shame.

Los Angeles is OCCUPIED

Well that’s stupid lol

These Particular Corrupt Supreme Court Justices can NEVER be Trusted again…👇🏼

If you are dumb or naive enough to believe the grifters on the right who tell you they’re oppose to immigration because it drives down wages for native-born workers, just ask them 1) if they support raising the minimum wage and 2) how come the GOP doesn’t? Go ahead.
