Dump winning,

Our democracy only works when our officials take seriously their oath to uphold the Constitution. In America, the Constitution is king.

Watch this. Because this is the way: Local officials using their platform right, reaching out to the community. Ambrocio “Enrique” Lozano, affectionately known as “the popsicle man,” was reportedly abducted in broad daylight in Culver City. Masked man. White van. Cart left behind in the street.

CBC needs to ask Christiane Amanpour about her interview with Mark Carney, the interview CBC never got! #cdnpoli

Every single day I read another headline that brings tears to my eyes. Who have they ripped rights away from today? Who won't have their SS check tomorrow? Who won't have their Health Insurance next week. There was NOTHING WRONG with America Until Rapist Trump. Biden had America in a great place

Irish politician Ivana Bacik explains how a Norwegian tourist was denied entry to the US because of a meme on his phone Surreal - so much for free speech 🤷‍♂️

💙Absolutely!!!! Don’t EVER FORGET what Biden did to this country!💙

“Donald Trump going nuts on Thursday as European intelligence shows that the strikes on Iran were not effective and as Trump starts selling “Daddy” merchandise.” youtube.com/watch?v=cfxR...

Gen. Dan Caine, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said Sunday’s aerial raid on Iran was the culmination of a secret project that traces to 2009. The bombs used were built specifically for the mission, the general said.

NEW: Judge Paula Xinis has ordered an emergency conference for today at 1 PM ET to hear arguments over Mr. Abrego's motion to return him to Maryland and prevent DHS from deporting him. Here is the Abrego motion: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Why is everyone mad at New York? Isn’t Mamdani just young Bernie Sanders but Muslim? Oh.

Bombing a country does not win you a "Peace Prize" Peace negotiations might.

Each time a remotely progressive candidate wins office in the US, the rich declare they're going to leave town. What do they actually do? Nothing. A 2016 study found only 0.04% of millionaires move in a given year due to tax increases. Rich people talk to feel important. Please properly tax them.

NOT A SINGLE SENATOR should vote to confirm Emil Bove for the 3d Circuit Court of Appeals. (Fixed It!)

This is insane. There is a madman in Washington creating fiscal policy that will bankrupt America, stifle innovation, and is just morally reprehensible. But a “socialist” who wants to be mayor of NYC is what causes Wall St to panic? Just clowning on themselves.

A divided Supreme Court on Thursday ruled patients cannot sue to get non-abortion care from Planned Parenthood in states that cut Medicaid funding.

It’s cruel to send Palestinians desperate for food into a death trap. And now, Trump wants to give the Netanyahu backed "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation" $30 million. We should not send a single cent. We must stop the suffering in Gaza and fund real aid organizations.

Yes. No.

FOX: On the issue of fluoride, what has been the response from dentists who may be concerned that some children in lower incomes may not get preventative care? RFK JR: It is an issue. It's a balance. You're gonna see probably slightly more cavities.

Mamdani’s meteoric rise marks a clear rejection of the Democratic establishment—and sends a powerful message to other progressives nationwide. While Cuomo leaned heavily on big-money super PAC donors Mamdani harnessed grassroots energy, fueled especially by younger voters hungry for genuine change.

I'm getting pretty sick of being considered a radical because I want people to be able to get healthcare, to live happy lives, and be able to afford nice things and a vacation every once in a while. People who think that's radical are freaks and mutants, and not in a good way.

Congrats, GOP: your Orange Tariff Tornado just kneecapped the economy—GDP shrunk, consumer cash froze, and imports exploded in a panicked stampede. Republicans lit the dumpster fire, now point at the smoke and yell “Biden!” Vote these arsonists out before they torch what’s left.

Just a message from Big Bird and friends! #twinninghusbands

Let me be clear, there is nothing you can trust coming out of the US government's mouth right now... it is as reliable as CHinese or Russian propaganda #Revolution2025

*LEAVITT: JULY 9 DEADLINE FOR TRADE DEALS NOT CRITICAL Translation: Talks are going nowhere

I’ve seen lots of nonsense since Mamdani’s primary victory but the most irritating thread is people claiming they will leave NY if he is mayor. First of all, Go! It’s fine. It’s FINE. Go swelter in FL or wherever. No one cares. And secondly shut up. You’re lying. You aren’t going anywhere.

Chris Cuomo had a meltdown on his NewsNation show over his brother losing the NYC mayoral primary. This chyron has me laughing, though: DEVELOPING STORY: CHRIS' FATHER IS FMR. NY GOV. MARIO CUOMO

“Vaccines are the single most lifesaving technology for children [& RFK Jr] is asserting a position that the U.S. will not support vaccination," said Dr. Atul Gawande. "This is utterly disastrous for children around the world and for public health.” www.nytimes.com/2025/06/25/h...

My state has had a legislative GOP supermajority for 22 years. Missouri is ranked: 50th in classroom funding 49th in starting teacher pay 7th highest in gun deaths 6th highest in maternal mortality Republicans can’t govern and you can look at every red state to come to that conclusion.

OMG! 👑🔥👑🔥👑🔥 I've never been prouder of my Dutch ancestry than I am today. Netherlands Queen Máxima is the wife of King Willem-Alexander. She became queen consort upon his accession to the throne in 2013. Real Queens know when they are standing next to a fake, tacky, wannabe king. 👑 #Respect 🇳🇱

As a result, with today’s decision, the Supreme Court has removed one of the only practical ways to stop a state from punishing doctors it doesn’t like by kicking them out of the Medicaid program. Read @msjpauly.bsky.social's look at the 6-3 ruling.

“ICE” bounty hunters made this possible. By making it easy to cosplay as federal agents: masked faces, no visible ID, no official vehicles, and gear that any yahoo can buy on Amazon. They look like criminals! 🚨 Man arrested who pretended to be an ICE agent while committing a robbery in Houston.

When you lie about your credentials, your drinking, and your leaking of classified war plans, why would anyone trust you about the air strikes?

This is so true!!

At a time when Planned Parenthood faces unprecedented threats to its very survival, the Supreme Court added another one today. The court ruled that if states decide to unilaterally cut off Medicaid funding to a healthcare provider—in this case Planned Parenthood—patients cannot sue to stop them.

403 - number of Labour MPs 126 - number of Labour MPs rebelling on welfare bill Why are the other 277 Labour MPs ok with cutting benefits to the disabled? Shame on them

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social has a lot of great ideas for programs to make NYC affordable for everyone. He should add a free N95 mask program. N95s improve public health by protecting people from airborne viruses & wildfire smoke, & providing them for free increases their use and decreases stigma.

So. which Stephen king book are we doing today, folks?
