Harvey Milk served his country honorably — first in uniform, then in public office. Taking his name off this Navy ship sends a clear message, and it’s one of disrespect and cruelty.

MURRAY: Will you allocate the $220m for literacy programs that Congress appropriated? McMAHON: We're looking at the unallocated dollars to determine which of those programs we can best spend on MURRAY: Those funds were appropriated. It looks to me like the dept is illegally impounding funding

No more masked ICE agents. Unmask the terrorists.

😡😡😡😡

I think a lot of of those folks dressing up like ICE are not even cops much less federal agents. The way they carry themselves. The way they are dressed. Something is off.

Read? The Gazpacho Police and Peachtree Dish lady?

These people are just wrong about literally everything.

Did you read the book about Joe’s decline? Big Bill: No because he’s not the president anymore and he did a good job when he was the president.

In Greek mythology, Narcissus fell in love with his own reflection in a pool of water.

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.

Reminder: Joni Ernst is up for reelection

ICYMI — federal agents cuffed an @RepJerryNadler aide inside his congressional office, claiming they were “conducting a security check” The guardrails are off. More: www.politico.com/news/2025/05...

Federal officers entered Rep. Jerry Nadler’s office in Lower Manhattan on Wednesday and handcuffed and briefly detained one of his aides. The confrontation happened shortly after the aide observed federal agents detaining migrants in a public hallway outside an immigration courtroom.

The entire point.

This part

Apparently states’ rights stop the moment women board a plane with autonomy in their carry-on.

I don't know if there is a more appropriate goodbye to Loretta Swit, than her last scene in MASH in the series finale. Loretta won two Emmy's for her role as Major Houlihan.

This was today… Sotally tober… NYT clearly way off base…

Attending a pro-democracy protest isn't a downer. Quite the opposite. It's a colorful event with clever signs and cool people who love their country as much as you do. It will give you hope that decency can prevail. Make plans for June 14. Bring your family and friends.

This has to stop. Has to.

That would be awful. Don’t share this.

Raskin: This is a gangster state. This is not basically a legitimate government that is sometimes doing corrupt things. This is an essentially corrupt enterprise. It's like watching The Sopranos. Every day, they get up and they try to figure out how to plunder and pillage the people

Is it just the ones who are inside someone’s womb? Asking for a friend. FFS.

Even before latest thing I've been telling people for months Joni Ernst is way more vulnerable next year than people think. Dems should be investing a lot right now laying the ground work in the state.

Yes, let’s be as unprepared as possible and follow the kooks off a cliff.

This is such a good example of "turn every page" journalism - nothing less fun/glam than clicking through every footnote. And it's roughly 10,000x more newsy than the thumbsucker RFK profiles reported with big travel budgets.

Peter Navarro snaps at @andrewfeinberg.com after Feinberg points out that the administration always responds to court orders they don't like by railing against judges

Scoop: Texas police used Flock's license plate cameras to search *nationwide* for a woman who had a self-managed abortion. Claim it was "about her safety" www.404media.co/a-texas-cop-...

I’m not going to pretend for one second that an executive order is a law. I don’t serve a king.

I just think there needs to be more attention paid to the uniquely creepy, mendacious, awfulness of Speaker Mike Johnson. Don’t underestimate the depth of his ambition and breadth of what he is willing to do to never return to Shreveport.

Exactly

Foxx: This is the American Dream story they all claim to support. I’m a first-generation American, raised by a single mom in Section 8 housing. SNAP benefits—food stamps—put food on our table. Those social safety nets—they are not handouts, they are hand-ups.

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.

been saying this for like 3 years now, the core constituency of the "manosphere" is not Gen Z or teenage boys, it is 35-55 year old dudes who wish they were still teenage boys

RFK Jr’s Department of Health and Human Services has notified Moderna that it is canceling a nearly $600 million contract with the company to develop, test, and license vaccines for flu strains that could trigger future pandemics, including the dangerous H5N1 bird flu virus.

Selling a pardon to a tax cheat who steals from nurses and doctors. Not what the Founding Fathers intended. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/27/u...

Treating a new Covid strain like a crime and not a public health issue is deranged.

Beyond parody.

“If you’re among the vast sea of Americans who remain enthusiastically grateful for vaccines, the time for pushing back against Kennedy isn’t later, when he’ll likely be ratcheting up his program to “reevaluate” longstanding pediatric vaccines. It is now.” www.thebulwark.com/p/rfk-jrs-wa...

Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, was recently paid an undisclosed amount to consult for GEO Group, a major immigrant jail operator that is poised to profit from the administration’s fascist immigration crackdown.

Scoop: Nancy Mace's fmr staff tell me they were assigned to create burner accounts to bolster their boss online. “We were congressional staff, and there were actual things we could be doing to help the constituents," one said. 1/ www.wired.com/story/nancy-...
