ICE’s argument that its officers need to wear masks due to a surge in assaults doesn’t hold water. Gift link: wapo.st/4l7a1ch

Posting wins today.

Several Ohio State wrestlers and a referee told assistant coach Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) about the sexual assaults on wrestlers by the team doctor and he just dismissed it by saying, "That's just Doc!" www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSP3...

A unformed ICE agent in an unmarked car points his gun at the head of a civilian who was taking picture of his license plate. The incident happened during an ICE raid in Pasadena. A trained police officer would NEVER react like this. Are the guys just a bunch of untrained dumb thugs?

Trump didn't do this by himself. He has the backing of America's wealthiest men, SCOTUS, Congress, the mainstream media, many of our largest corporations, etc. There has been large-scale betrayal.

Trump's Brownshirts are pointing weapons at civilian bystanders. What kind of tyrannical BS is this? Is this law enforcement standard practice? Outrageous! Freedom loving Americans aren't going to let ICE Gestapo & cosplaying bounty hunters come into our cities to abduct our people.

At this point it feels like the “major anomaly” for SpaceX are the rare times it *doesn’t* explode?

You know your country has screwed up priorities when it pretends it doesn't have the money to prevent LGBTQ teen suicides but it *does* have the funds to subsidize the wealthiest man in the world's engineering incompetence. www.cbsnews.com/news/video-s...

For the record, here were the costs of the Iraq war: 4,419 Americans were killed 31,993 Americans were wounded More than 30,000 post-9/11 wars veteran suicides $1.79 trillion, which includes future obligations for veterans’ care Steve Schmidt

On this Juneteenth, a day commemorating the end of slavery, remember that the white supremacist currently in the Oval Office, made over $1 Million selling a Bible that purports to have the Amendments to the Constitution in it, but skipped the Amendment ending slavery. abovethelaw.com/2024/05/trum...

So much for MAHA.

Some helpful visuals for how the white house and gop congress plan to take an axe to the CDC www.cdcdataproject.org

Republican Representative RJ May of Lexington, South Carolina was recently arrested over distribution of explicit infant and child sexual abuse material. RJ May, who used screen name ‘joebidennnn69’, has been charged with 10 counts and ordered to remain jailed until his trial.

Do we really need Congress if they are unwilling to defend their authorities and do their job? www.nytimes.com/2025/06/17/u...

Reupping: Brad Lander and Ras Baraka have 3 things in common: 1) Both are suing Kristi Noem 2) Noem's goons conducted pre-mediated arrests of both 3) Before an election www.emptywheel.net/2025/06/18/r...

Local Police Departments Are Enabling ICE’s Deportation Machine https://twp.ai/4ioklo

Sigh

Elected officials are standing up and holding our administration accountable. Now they are being threatened and detained for it. Disgusting.

They are taking money from the poor to hand to the rich. Reverse Robin Hood politics. We must reject the “Big Beautiful” Bullshit.

They’re cranking up the propaganda machine again: claiming Brad Lander “unlawfully interfered” and that ICE is just “enforcing Trump’s policy.” Reality: Lander stood up for civil rights. ICE’s conduct reflects a deeply troubling use of federal power.

Fuck! This! No

Always.

Would love to have reporters dig into this incident, which is reminiscent of the Portland arrests of protesters in black vans. My additional question: did these black vans even have government plates?

This is an absolutely disgraceful act of corruption by both major parties. It will lead to an incredibly foreseeable set of disasters: best case, unlimited corruption and scamming, worst case a global financial crisis and inevitable federal bailout. Horrifying that 18 Democrats voted for it.

The Government Accountability Office found that the Trump admin broke the law when it withheld funding for the nation's libraries. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/16/u...

When the Trump assassination attempts happened, Democrats were among the first to call out the political violence. But now, that seems to only run one way. That’s how badly Trump has damaged the soul of the Republican Party. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Have you seen American Primeval on Netflix? Senator Mike Lee's great grandfather John Doyle Lee was a Mormon bigamist who was ultimately executed for his despicable role in the Mountain Meadows Massacre. Google it The Lees are fucking ghouls!

definitely concerning #econsky

The family of Adriana Smith, a metro Atlanta nurse who was declared brain dead in February while pregnant, said her baby boy has arrived “He's expected to be OK. He's just fighting. We just want prayers for him.”

One of two justifications DOJ claims to be relying on for invading Los Angeles is a claim that Trump couldn't enforce the law otherwise. This pic from June 12 is one piece of evidence CA includes w/their Motion for Preliminary Injunction. fox5sandiego.com/news/noem-at...

An American citizen was killed in Russian strikes on Kyiv overnight, hours after Trump bragged about his relationship with Putin. Read the full story here: https://trib.al/BwMFcUv

C-SPAN caller to Tapper: "When are you going to examine what's going on with Trump? ... this president has been pure chaos, which indicates to me that there is something wrong with him. We will never get a straight answer on his medical exam, and yet you have gone after Joe Biden with a vengeance."

Context note: DOJ doesn’t turn over evidence to Congress if they have a viable investigation in the works.

Worth the read.

Q: "Tulsi Gabbard testified in March that the intelligence community said Iran wasn't building a nuclear weapon." Trump: "I don't care what she said. I think they were very close to having one."

Republican Senator Mike Lee cracks jokes and spreads conspiracy theories following deadly shootings in Minnesota. Disgusting.

This bill will crash our economy....make the Dollars worthless and murder millions of Americans...call or Email your Senators today.

NEW: A federal judge has ruled that the Trump administration’s termination of hundreds of NIH grants was “void and illegal.” He ordered funding for some of the grants, including many profiled by ProPublica in recent months, to be reinstated. By @anniewaldman.bsky.social

Trump empowers Bukele in El Salvador to escalate his repression. The arrest of human rights lawyer Ruth López and targeting of the opposition, including Ronal Umaña, is disgraceful. The US should be calling for their protection and release, not cruelly authorizing detentions with no due process.

This is not normal. A sitting president refusing to call the governor of a state after two elected officials were shot, one fatally, is beyond words. A typical president, regardless of politics, would pick up the phone. Offer condolences.
