I know this is nothing about the world now. However, I need to share I FUCKING grew my own potatoes!!!

Not “ICE” changing license plates in a back lot. They wouldn’t do that, would they? Maybe the authorities should look into this.

DefSec Pete Hegseth was asked at Pentagon presser about the US intelligence community conclusion that Iran was NOT proceeding with a nuclear weapons program. He refused to answer and praised Donald Trump. That’s one big tell.

#handsoff #nokings 2 July 4 #goodtroubleliveson July 17 🤣🤣🤣

Tell me again how we can expect US military officers to refuse to carry out illegal orders by the President when it comes to nuclear weapons. B2 pilots just carried out an illegal military strike on Iran. We are not at war with Iran. And no Iranian attack on the US was imminent.

He illegally started a war and nothing will happen because everyone in Congress is a spineless coward.

Just so I’m clear… Terry Moran got fired, but Mike Lee is still a sitting US senator?

One begins to wonder if putting the dumbest motherfucker ever to live in charge was a mistake.

It will forever anger me that so many NY State Democratic leaders are backing a known sexual predator to lead New York City just to protect Big Money and corporate greed — and then will continue saying they will “fight for women.” Don’t rank Cuomo.

Approximately 175 people showed up in Dillon Montana, a small town in very red area. Well received by most passers-by. A few counterprotesters were there but left early. Local law enforcement was polite and helpful.

Well done, San Diego. #NoKings

THIS!

Reporter: I'm going to show you what 20,000 people in the streets of downtown Los Angeles looks like

Protesters have formed a human banner at Ocean Beach, San Francisco this afternoon. 👏👏 #NoKings #50501Movement (📸 Santiago Mejia/San Francisco Chronicle)

from 'this week in stupid,' my every-Saturday round-up of the dumbest fucking shit that happened. please read the whole thing, thanks! link is here: bit.ly/45SUaJh (and, as always, there's a longer excerpt in the alt text)

Farmworkers are hiding because Trump made them targets. Without farmworkers, the crops that feed our nation rot and our tables go empty. This isn’t strong immigration policy — it’s economic sabotage fueled by hate. www.bbc.com/news/article...

If you’re undocumented, don’t march tomorrow. Stay home. Let the rest of us get this one. Solidarity ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022. That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations. So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

This is the moment to turn the tide: Leadership in DC has failed. It's time to follow the lead of Californians....

“ICE” as snatching people from churches now. Never forget they said this👇🏾 MAN AT CHURCH: “We don’t want this in our property.” ICE: “The whole country is our property.” No IDs shown, non-government out of state plates, basic tactical vests that just say police. Who are these men?

If that’s what they do to a United States Senator with a question, imagine what they can do to any American that dares to speak up. We will hold this administration accountable.

If that’s what they do to a US Senator with a question, imagine what they do to farm workers, day laborers, cooks, and the other nonviolent immigrants they are targeting in California and across the country. Or any American that dares to speak up. I will not stop fighting to demand accountability.

I was chief of staff to a Cabinet secretary and vice president. I have a high opinion of the various federal protective services and personnel with whom I worked. But the fish rots from the head down. Today’s thuggish behavior in LA is just one of the many corrupting effects of Trump and Trumpism.

Gavin Newsom and his team are doing a good job at social media. Using comebacks and memes to just straight up murder muffukahs. Pay attention, Dems. This is how it’s done.

@militarytimes.bsky.social Dear Troops @ Ft. BRAGG who cheered that NAZI TRUMP. That was embarrassing for you. IF he's Hitler (as many leaders call him), YOU'RE NAZIs. Congrats. Now go back to class and relearn your role in the military, or resign. Signed, USAF VETERAN 🇺🇸

This is the most dangerous thing Trump has done since taking office and the silence from Senate Armed Services Chair Roger Wicker and House Chair Mike Rogers is deafening, and a betrayal of their duty to the military and the Republic.
