He literally pays people to curate his news so he only sees the good stuff and now he has the sads because he didn’t know about TACO. He’s so embarrassing.

The entire point.

This morning, I was on the National Mall to help install more than 30,000 purple flags to shine a light on the migraine and headache disorders that are disabling to so many. To everyone with an #invisibledisability - I see you and I will fight for you.

Yes.

I had not seen this WSJ article from earlier this week. The 1st Amendment violation admitted in the last paragraph of this passage would be too obvious to use on a law school exam. www.wsj.com/us-news/educ...

This is the kind of thing that would be a full-blown scandal leading to the resignation of multiple officials in any normal administration. Instead, it is completely ignored.

NEW: The National Sheriffs’ Association(!) puts out a statement saying the Trump admin’s publication, with no feedback first, of a list of Sheriff departments alleged to be sanctuary jurisdictions “violated the core principles of trust, cooperation, and partnership with fellow law enforcement.”

The plaintiff, a victim of Epstein, claims the gov't concealed its conduct for years & "At no time did the FBI or any other government entity reach out to Maria to investigate or seek to understand or resolve her claims or otherwise in any way substantively respond to her claim.

Don't spend one minute feeling sorry for the law firms that capitulated. They prioritized their own profits over the rule of law, decency and democracy. They deserve the ridicule and scorn they are now receiving. History will remember them for the cowards they are.

Joni Ernst thinks it’s hilarious that some people are worried that health care cuts will kill people. I think under those circumstances karma dictates something very, very bad should happen soon to Joni Ernst. Fatal car crash, pancreatic cancer, whatever, I don’t think we should be picky.

Deporting a gay man to Russia is beyond horrific, and yet this admin is happy to do it. And the verbal abuse he describes is abhorrent; and not new. Guards at detention centers, jails, and prisons get away with crap like this all the time. It’s appalling, it’s not new under Trump, just worse now.

Sometimes Rip just needs to think and contemplate complicated questions.đź’śđź’śđź’ś #dogsofbluesky #stbernards

Totally inappropriate and really unprecedented for a cabinet secretary to overtly intervene in an election of an ally like this. And even more wildly (though unsurprisingly) on behalf of the pro-authoritarian party.

Next time someone in Congress glibly dismisses your need for healthcare, remember that they have some of the best healthcare in the country. And it was paid for by YOU.

"The premise is moral and reality-based, and I’d love to see it tested on voters who maybe, possibly, are ready for something new."

Damn. This is dramatic. I had heard a couple days ago that a Nadler staffer had been arrested but was waiting for confirmation. So now we know what happened; ICE officers barged into the district office trying to arrest other people, handcuffed a staffer who pushed back, then let her go, no arrest.

Trump still hasn't figured out that insane asylums and political asylum claims are different things

Trump just announced that he's increasing tariffs on steel imports to 50% from 25%.

BREAKING: Over 130 former federal & state judges have filed an amicus brief urging the court to drop charges against Judge Dugan in Wisconsin The charges seek to criminalize judicial discretion & set a dangerous precedent for executive overreach We MUST defend judicial independence👇

many alleged crimes in this article. eg it says Elon got advance notice of legally required drug tests so he could stop using long enough to pass www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/u...

AIR FORCE NONE? 🥴 Trump’s Air Force One deal with Qatar isn’t final. Turns out he asked for the jet—they didn’t offer. And now Qatar wants a memo of understanding signed with DC first.

“Congress did not intend to set up a trade dictator where all tariff rates can be changed on a whim by simply declaring a national emergency." -Douglas Irwin, author of many books on trade, to me, in this piece:

"I hardly use it" -- moments after calling Biden's autopen one of the greatest scandals of all time, Trump admits to using an autopen

interesting

i have begun to use “wicked” to describe these people. it is old fashioned but captures the active nature of their malevolence. they are *agents* of evil

Trump claims that the power to impose tariffs was "granted by the founders" (it literally was not)

In the alleged Land of the Free, government officials will now painstakingly review social media posts for any noncitizen seeking to travel to the campus of the ruling party’s opponent, and the ban those who speech it determines conflict with the official party line on Israel.

Lutnick on Fox News tonight claimed Trump has "$10 trillion coming to build factories in America." (The entire GDP of the US is under $28 trillion, so this is as ridiculous of a lie as you'll ever hear)

If you know anything about RFK Jr the fact that he falsified the MAHA report should not surprise you in the least.

To be clear: I'd take Justice Jeanine Pirro for the next 3 years over Justice James Ho for the next 30, and if you think I'm wrong it's only because you have no fucking clue how dangerous James Ho is going to be.

In San Antonio today, plainclothes ICE officers (not masked this time) arrested, handcuffed, and zip-tied a family of five (yes, ALL of them, including the little children) coming out of their immigration court hearing — which ICE had just had dismissed. www.mysanantonio.com/news/local/a...
