I’m just watching this G7 summit, and man, our country is being embarrassed like never before We’ve never had more pathetic leadership than what we’ve got right now A totally unprepared “President” that honestly has no clue what’s going on Other countries are laughing at us You deserve BETTER!

Surrendering to Trump is bad for business. Some thoughts... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/why-standing-up-to-trump-is-good

Every time this clown leaves the country he embarrasses us on the world stage.

Trump is trying to normalize the ICE raids/troops on our streets and the violence you're seeing as a result of all this. He's hoping for the violence in blue cities.

Immigration is what made America great. If they want to “make America great again” they should understand this.

WE HAVE QUESTIONS… This is a kidnapping. No uniform, no badge, civilian car. Who are they? ICE? Sanctioned bounty hunters? Either way, they’re grabbing people without warrants. How often is this happening, and why aren’t more people talking about it? Congress?

Or

The greatest threat to our country and people is the MAGA Republican Cult.

While Trump blusters about "law & order," his regime has dropped or halted nearly 150 investigations into corporate wrongdoing. And Trump himself has pardoned dozens of his supporters, including Jan 6 rioters and other convicted of crimes like money laundering and bribery.

Thank you for participating Jimmy Kimmel @jimmykimmel.com

FOX: The Committee for a Responsible Budget came out today and said it will add $15 trillion to the debt THUNE: This will reduce the deficit, not increase it

Tucker Carlson says Fox is a propaganda network that manipulates their mostly elderly audience.

All of this is being manufactured by Trump. The show of force is the point. It distracts from his recent failures and inability to govern. Like any bully, Trump wants to display his power — especially over those whom he doesn't consider "his" people.

Over 75% of folks in ICE custody this year had no criminal record beyond immigration or traffic issues. Less than 10% had serious convictions. Fear sells, but facts matter. #ImmigrationTruth

EXACTLY- the HYPOCRISY of these fuckheads!

My law firm is currently litigating 55 voting and election cases in 24 states. Two points: This is a very large caseload for this point in the election cycle. It is more evenly spread across states than usual which reflects the creep of voter suppression laws into even safe GOP states.

A lawmaker and her husband were murdered. A senator and his wife nearly killed. The suspect had a hit list. And what did we do? We blamed each other. We justified. We spun. Political violence isn’t coming—it’s here. And we’re normalizing it. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/political-...

Imagine believing Friendless Urinal Cake swept all seven swing states when he can’t get anyone to come to his birthday party

They were offering people $1000 dollars to attend the parade at the last minute. That had to cost them at least 27 thousand dollars. 😀

Netanyahu began this war with his attack on Iran. In the process, he sabotaged US-Iran negotiations on nuclear issues and assassinated Ali Shamkhani, Iran’s lead nuclear negotiator. The US must not be dragged into another illegal Netanyahu war – either militarily or financially.

A Democratic marcher shot and killed A Democratic State Representative killed A Democratic Congresswoman indicted A Democratic Mayor arrested A Democratic Senator tackled and detained A Democratic State Representative in critical condition How much more will we take?

Trump is in a foreign country today trashing American Democrats, trashing American cities, and advocating for Putin. In other words, nothing has changed from his previous trips.

You know it’s getting somewhere when he starts to sue. It’s all true btw. From the files to the election 🗳️ but we already knew that.

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.

THIS IS NOT A DRILL: Charleston deploys horses, riot vans, bicycles, and a small army of police against a handful of peaceful protesters in a neighborhood — because cardboard signs pose a “greater threat” than fascism.

Boelter's "POLICE" license looked janky, as you can see in this slide. And yet even after a cop encountered him in his car, he was able to drive away, head to Melissa Hortman's house, and murder her and her husband

'Kremlin-owned puppet': Critics slam Trump for jetting off to Canada to defend Putin at G7 www.alternet.org/the-right-wi...

"June 14 may have signaled the start of a new chapter of his tenure. That is, a new chapter of pushback amid a sense of growing peril..." www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

"How does it feel to get arrested at 87 years old? He said "I'm just beginning!"

when 4-5M people march peacefully against the current regime it's the story of the year. NYT cannot bring itself to focus on that reality.

What we learned yesterday. The Times They Are a-Changin'

Your senator deserves and extra phone call focusing on this issue alone.

🚨NEWS: Senators bankrolled by crypto donors put a line in the crypto bill that says in bank collapses, holders of bank cryptocurrency get “priority” over regular depositors, meaning savings/checking accounts could be raided to bail out crypto investors. www.levernews.com/cryptos-new-...

🤣🤣

NEW: He didn’t like Pelosi. He didn’t like Tim Walz. He didn’t like Joe Biden. He DID like Alex Jones. He DID vote for Trump. He would be offended if anyone thought he was a democrat. wapo.st/45UNM4e

It most certainly is!

When NO KINGS reigns over your parade. #SAD 🤣
