University of Virginia President Resigns Under Pressure From Trump Administration www.nytimes.com/2025/06/27/u... Just unbelievable #fascism #authoritarianism

Trump: "If you look at the end of the Civil War -- the 1800s, it was a very turbulent time. If you take the end day -- was it 1869? Or whatever."

I’m choked up seeing this—it’s shameful. Iranian refugees got snatched by “immigration agents” dressed like bounty hunters in West LA’s Sawtelle neighborhood. We’re really about to send them back to a country we just bombed? A regime known for jailing, torturing, and killing its own people?

Josh Hawley once said gutting health care for 13+ million Americans was his red line. Well, Josh, the line’s been drawn—are you crossing it or standing up for your own damn words? Missouri is watching. Time to choose: your donors or your conscience. Vote NO on this brutal bill.

Under Trump's Big Ugly Bill, America's poorest families lose about $1600 per year. The richest households gain about $12,000 per year. It's Reverse Robin Hood. (Via CBO)

Newsom: The gloves are off. Let’s go. We’re gonna call out the bullshit. And the propaganda. And the weaponization of lies and disinformation on networks like Fox…

AMERICA THIS IS YOUR FIRST AND ONLY WARNING ABOUT THE FUTURE FROM A JUSTICE 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳 IT'S NOW OR NEVER BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP WILL GO AND WHEN ONE PART OF THE CONSTITUTION FAILS IT'S A WRAP😳😳 www.courthousenews.com/in-dissent-j...

Miami just canceled its November election & pushed it to 2026. No public vote, just canceled. Mayor Suarez & Joe Carollo get to stick around an extra year. This feels like a power grab. If one city can delay elections for “participation,” what’s to stop others from doing it to silence opposition?

Bondi just said DHS is helping rid us of criminals from the Sinaloa Cartel, but she failed to mention the asylum she gave to family members of the Sinaloa Cartel. She also said we're ridding the country of MS-13, but failed to mention the asylum she's giving to MS-13 leaders in the Abrego case.

Lawrence O'Donnell has been reporting in a way that is the verbal equivalent of kicking someone in the balls — and then doing it again, just for good measure. That's the kind of reporting we need. Not this candy-ass, sugar-coated BS so many others are putting out. #LawrenceGetsIt

This year’s hit toy Tariff Bear is NOT flying off the shelves.

Anyone else having a hard time being happy when the Supreme Court makes the right call for once? It’s like, good, but **gestures broadly**

BOOM: California Gov. Gavin Newsom is suing Fox News and Jesse Watters for defamation, accusing them of airing a manipulated Trump clip to push lies about Newsom’s calls with Trump. The lawsuit seeks $787M—same as Fox’s Dominion settlement.

MUST WATCH: Oceanside CA: Militarized DHS (HSI) smashed windows, assault rifles drawn, tossed flashbangs and sent drones into the apartment which had 2 kids inside. They then told neighbors they were going to use tear gas, and they’d probably be exposed. Please share widely. WTF

34 young women went missing in Washington DC in 24 hours, and it isn’t making a blip on the MSM. I let you guess why.

TRULY REMARKABLE: “A new Quinnipiac poll finds support for path to legalization for most undocumented immigrants has risen to 64%. Only 31% want most of them deported.”

I can’t get enough of Queen Maxima of The Netherlands mocking the orange felon. Hilariously good. 🤣🔥

Every lawyer in line to advise potential Democratic presidential candidates is drafting right now a host of policies that could be implemented without fear of nationwide injunctions slowing them down.

True.

100 KKKILLER KR GTFOH!!!

The best way to reduce the cost of Medicaid is to name and shame big employers that pay their full time employees so little, they qualify for Medicaid

Typical MAGA. They don’t care what happens to other people until it happens to them. You get what you vote for. A Pregnant Woman Says She And Her Trump-Supporting Husband Were "Blindsided" When ICE Detained Him www.buzzfeed.com/pocharaponne...

Lindsey Graham: "I don't know where the 900 pounds of highly enriched uranium exists, but it wasn't part of the target set."

Every local story I've seen in NYC about Zohran's victory calls him a "democratic socialist" 5 times a minute. (I don't see that as a pejorative but they certainly do.) If they're gonna do that, they should be required to refer to Eric Adams as a "crony capitalist" and Sliwa as a "vigilante maniac".

This week's Seriously Risky Business looks at a new report from the Atlantic Council on how the zero-day supply chain approaches differ between China and the United States, American cyber capabilities used to support military operations in Iran, and more. Read the newsletter, from @tom.risky.biz.
