At least 12 DOGE staffers remain legal employees or advisers of the companies they worked at before DOGE. And at least nine continue to receive corporate benefits from their private-sector employers, including stock vesting plans.

It’s sad when you have to make an abortion smoothie for your mistress so your wife and your other mistress don’t find out that you got other mistress pregnant.

A leader of the MN House Democrats is murdered by a Republican pro-life activist. Rather than condemning political murder of his opponents, Elon Musk spreads the conspiracy theory that it was done by Democrats. Journalists don’t need to use any social media site. But they really shouldn’t use X.

Genie: ok what do you want for your birthday Trump: a military parade, oh, and also millions of people on the street chanting my name Genie: okie dokie

Trump's "perade" is the only event today where crowds are smaller than expected.

Folks it doesn't even *look* like a parade is supposed to look Like whoever planned this has never seen a parade

being able to hear the wheels on the Sherman tanks squeal on account of no one there is some incredible footage. A+ comedy.

I need everyone on Normal People internet to know that American Girl Doll Instagram is doing doll protests today. There are tiny t-shirts and signs. AND THEN I realized it's a joint protest with the Barbie ppl, where there are EVEN TINIER SIGNS.

(Left) Madison #NoKing protest shows 10k+ of million+ that marched against Donald the Corrupt & Feeble: Strength of The People! (Right) Empty barricades for Trump’s $100+ million authoritarian themed parade: Weakness of the Wannabe King!

Remarkable. MSNC: "I want to reiterate this has been 100% peaceful." Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd. Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.

Trump looking absolutely inconsolable at his fascist-themed 79th birthday party which no one turned up to other than those who had to because he's their boss.

We’ve truly lost our way in this country. An 80-year-old vet who fought for this country just got arrested protesting Trump‘s parade. He deserves respect, not handcuffs.

Reminder: the Trump admin put a 22-year-old in charge of the country’s domestic terrorism prevention office. He graduated college last year. And has no known national security expertise. But he did work for the Trump campaign. www.propublica.org/article/trum...

Assassins dress like cops & the secret police wear masks and no ID

this statement was made just yesterday

you ever think about how in 2009 DHS released a report about the growing threat of violent domestic terrorism from the right and then Republicans got so mad about it the DHS secretary resigned?

As we can now see pardoning the J6 rioters was just the first step in legalizing Trump based crime, it belatedly occurred to me how much more press hand wringing there was over Biden pardoning his son from minor and obviously politically motivated charges than freeing a pack of cop beaters.

Two MN lawmakers, their spouses, and a dog were shot by a man impersonating a police officer last night. He remains at-large. Political violence escalates when opponents are demonized and dehumanized. And when we can't tell the identities of LEOs because they hide their badges and identities.

“Suspect is white male, brown hair, wearing black body armor over blue shirt and blue pants and may misrepresent himself as law enforcement.”

I think this is important enough to mention: last night the Minnesota State House was deadlocked at 67-67 Republicans/DFL. I don’t know what it is now.

This story on the shootings in Brooklyn Park and Champlin is outside the paywall. Our reporters are working to confirm details as quickly as possible. www.startribune.com/brooklyn-par...

Fucking hell: “Minnesota state senator John Hoffman in Champlin and Minnesota state representative Melissa Hortman in Brooklyn Park were reportedly shot in their homes by a gunman impersonating a police officer.”

Florida Sheriff Wayne Ivey is threatening to hurt & KILL protesters. Florida cops ran AWAY from the Parkland shooter—& when they were sued for running away—defended themselves (& won) arguing “police had no legal duty to protect students.” So their new threat to kill civilians is just who they are.

Michael Bloomberg, the former mayor of New York City, gave $5 million to Fix the City, a super PAC that is supporting Andrew Cuomo’s bid for mayor. https://trib.al/0XzDsx5

In context of the 3,000 arrests/day mandate, this means turbocharging arrests in construction, child&elder care, delivery services, transport, manufacturing. It also means desperate ICE agents prowling the streets for victims. Courts, check-ins, and interviews will be ground zero for arrests...

“The Trump Organization has consistently made use of temporary visa programs to hire foreign workers for Mar-a-Lago, four golf clubs and his Virginia winery—filing to bring in at least 1,880 seasonal workers since 2008.” www.forbes.com/sites/zachev...

The Department of Energy is quietly slashing disability rights

So, I'm sure Doug LaMalfa (CA-01), Kevin Kiley (CA-03), Tom McClintock (CA-05), Vince Fong (CA-20), David Valadao (CA-22), Jay Obernolte (CA-23), Young Kim (CA-40), Ken Calvert (CA-41) & Darrell Issa (CA-48) are outraged about one of their U.S. Senators being assaulted & handcuffed yesterday, right?

Summer may be near, but extreme weather doesn’t follow a calendar. Climate pollution is driving more frequent, intense, and dangerous storms—and without strong climate safeguards, our communities will continue to bear the brunt.

USAGM today urgently called back to work the staff of the Voice of America's Farsi language service. All had been on paid admin leave for the past three months with the rest of VOA's silenced journalists.

We heard directly from more than 150 researchers, scientists and investigators about their terminated NIH grants and the science that’s being lost. Full story ⤵️

Kristi Noem is seen as a "delicate, beautiful, tiny woman" while leading DHS, yet Rep. McIver was arrested for protesting it, and Sen. Padilla was tackled for even questioning it. It's clear who gets to be “delicate, beautiful, and tiny,” and who is seen as a violent threat to law enforcement.

<thread> On the left: June 12, Judge Breyer writing that THE test for whether the US Marines/Guard violate Posse Comitatus will be whether they've engaged in "detaining" civilians. On the right: June 13: See for yourself. Note: The DoD has confirmed the detention of civilian to Reuters.

The way the ICE officer, who looks like a middle-aged guy who's probably been doing the job for years, just casually tosses off that line... My guess would be that he felt he was doing her a favor; he was being reasonable within the bounds of his orders. But it's the orders that are unreasonable.

I get that these guys have no shame, but that doesn’t mean we should give them a pass for it. Shame on Johnson and shame on the Republican Party that won’t call this out even though they know it’s wrong.
