Ooof.

1/Alleged Minnesota assassin attended a Bible college that is a stronghold of the Christian Nationalist movement called the New Apostolic Reformation, where some leaders of Stop the Steal and Theobros also went. @kieraevebutler.bsky.social has the details: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Trump Chose to Hunt Law-Abiding Migrants Rather than Right Wing Terrorists Like Vance Boelter. www.emptywheel.net/2025/06/16/t...

Five months ago, Evanston became a Welcoming City. Today, we've learned that the Evanston PD shared its network of license plate data with at least seven out-of-state agencies conducting immigration searches in Illinois cities.

You may be struggling today, but one day soon things will be better. Some days are just struggly. Ups and downs are part of the deal

It’s a Nazi bar.

I'm under no illusion that we're still in a minority as same sex parents, but the fact that the eldest was able to get this card without any trouble says how far we've come as a society.

If you rank Zohran 1st you’re voting to make every New York Times Opinion writer insane for several years.

Very conservative/strongly anti-abortion = murderer.

Uh huh. Sure.

That’s right.

Trump is now directing ICE to focus on Democratic-led cities such as Los Angeles, Chicago and New York:

Mike Lee was born with every conceivable advantage in life. His father was US Solicitor Gen & dean of BYU Law, where Mike went to school. Older brother UT Sup Ct justice. Then he got jobs where family connections certainly help open doors. But he decided he wanted to be Catturd.

Thought we needed some feel good moments. This kid excitedly leading the chants

Some Personal News: (I have a very intermittent newsletter about what I'm up to)

"Again and again, I arrived at the same conclusion without fail: no, my eyes did not deceive me and my standards are not too high and I’m not being unfair. That was, hands down, the worst military parade I’ve ever seen." charlotteclymer.substack.com/p/the-worst-...

This is a United States Senator mocking the assassination of a Minnesota legislator and her husband. He pretends to be a good Mormon. He’s a sick fuck.

This song makes me feel both happy and sad.

There a reason the protests are being covered differently from the Tea Party The Tea Party was a front for the wealth class that owns the media and were used to demonize necessary reform These protests were democratic and populist, which the wealth class and its media opposes Hope that helps

There is absolutely nothing about yesterday’s massive #NoKings marches to be found on the home page of the @nytimes.com app.

It is firmly in the “somebody’s making an active decision to downplay this” territory.

Good morning. Jimmi Pickles has dark toe beans on her black paw and light toe beans on her orange paw. (She is purring in this pic)

Fuck fascism.

He threw his own birthday party, spent millions and millions of the American people’s money, and they still didn’t come.

Police deploy flash-bangs, rubber bullets on L.A. protesters. There was no violence or problems caused by the L.A. protesters. The LA police were out of control today. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...

Welcome to my military parade.

Such great crowd shots!

Fucking amazing!

The biggest surprise today about the #NoKings march in San Francisco? None of the businesses along the predetermined route were prepared for the sheer volume of customers who visited their establishments. A local burger joint closed early because they ran out of ground beef.

Schadenfreude

Fucking hilarious.

Fuck Netanyahu.

LOL, Chueng is a sad lying toady. What a miserable existence he endures.

We’re honored to report that over 11 million showed up for today’s No Kings protest, and totals are still coming in. Just… wow. WOW 😮! There’s nothing more to say.

Incredible turnout for the #NoKings protest in Los Angeles!

I'm sorry but the largest protest of my lifetime is not the 7th or 8th biggest news story in the country behind "what does Gen Z want from Instagram?" This shit is humiliating. Rearrange your layout to meet this moment. Omitting the thing happening in every American city is malpractice.
