This measured, dignified & statesmanlike response proves conclusively that he is a role model for our nation's youth & should counter the narrative that he is an impulsive, infantile, psychologically-damaged dimwit. #TacoTuesdayTirade 🌮 🤬

Impeach daily if you have to, filibuster even when you don’t need to, disrupt the process as much as possible. These are not normal times and this is not a normal government.

Does it surprise you that members of Congress are buying Palantir stock, the company that happens to be helping ICE with mass deportations? The latest Press Pass from @cheetah.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/stock-trad...

NEW: Trump’s FBI is yanking agents off immigration cases to deal with the counterterrorism threats. Thousands being reassigned—because the terrorism threat repercussions resulting from the Iran airstrikes weren’t thought through, and now they’re bracing for impact.

Probably not a coincidence Trump cancelled the Senate classified briefing for this afternoon.

Strongly recommend spending time listening to my conversation with journalist @mattbinder.bsky.social about the evil that is Palantir. It's worse than you can imagine. thelefthook.substack.com/p/say-goodby...

Phang: If you were scrolling on social media and saw a dog locked up in the middle of the Everglades—in the sun, in the heat, in the humidity—the outrage would be wild, wouldn’t it? But then—we’re okay with human beings being treated like that?

Mitch McConnell has a net worth of up to $52 million, and has had high quality government-financed healthcare for decades. Losing your healthcare, losing your loved ones, losing your life, isn’t something people should be told “get over it.”

While the world looks at Iran and Israel, the most important fight to our kids and grandkids future is taking place in Europe… Ukraine. Here’s why: youtu.be/uSD9Ovd_ArI?...

Yikes. Karoline Leavitt's statement basically completely confirms CNN's reporting. This is really bad for the White House and should be a major scandal. Trump lied. Again.

A message to the International Criminal Court, from Millions of Americans… Since Taco is already there in The Hague, all you have to do is arrest him and incarcerate him. He’s committing crimes against humanity and deserves to rot in prison for eternity. Thank you in advance!!!

It’s not enough for Stephen Miller to orchestrate Trump’s deportation agenda. Miller recently disclosed over $100K of stock in Palantir, the shady data firm ICE uses to target and round up immigrants. He’s cashing in on his own cruelty.

Sadly not a new phenomenon. Many veterans have been deported over the years, often because of drug problems they acquired after PTSD from their time in the service.

The data is undeniable: •15 of top 16 states with the highest rates of infant mortality are red states that deny/ban repro access. •12 of top 13 states with the lowest rates of infant mortality are blue states that protect repro access. Why is this even a debate? www.qasimrashid.com/p/three-year...

Not the most important part of this story, but the fact this Vance meme is currently circulating the globe at light speed is a moment of quiet joy.

"Mr. President, don’t take your anger out on me – I’m just a silly girl. Take it out on whoever convinced you to betray the American people and our Constitution by illegally bombing Iran and dragging us into war. It only took you 5 months to break almost every promise you made." AOC
