Boston's "No Kings" event coincided with Pride so the organizations joined forces for a . . . "No Kings but Yaaas Queen" event and tbh, I want a copy if this poster. www.boston.com/news/local-n...

Hello from Berlin where a few hundred Americans are outside the embassy, currently reading aloud from the Declaration of Independence. #nokings

“It smells like sewage. It’s bad. Soon as I’m out of that shower, my whole back burns.” Residents of North #Florida town upset that their water quality has been bad since the fall. City officials blame Hurricane Helene. www.mypanhandle.com/news/local-n...

Is it too much to ask for an IRS Commissioner who understands the law?

Vietnam desperately wants Trump’s 46% tariffs lifted. They offered to reduce tariffs on US to zero, but that really won’t do much to change the trade deficit that Trump’s obsessed with. So they did this and approved Musk’s Starlink. Now expect a deal soon on tariffs for Vietnam.

If @msnbc is going to have random physicians who have never treated Biden speculating about him, maybe they can find some to speculate about Trump’s apparent medical issues.

Great question

Just reposting this which I think is the most gorgeous thing I have seen in my career - a critically endangered orange-bellied parrot feeding on a carpet of daisies after an ecological burn. This was the first time they’d had the chance to feed naturally in 15y and was wonderful to witness 😭😭😭🧡🧡🧡🧡

Reading the story about the woman in Georgia who is brain dead and on a vent but not allowed to die with dignity because she was 9 weeks pregnant when she was declared brain dead. Even in death, our bodies are not our own. State-owned property.

It's tough to refer to someone as a criminal if you've given them no due process to determine whether they're a criminal. Like if you get arrested and get a trial and are convicted of 34 felony counts. That's due process. You can call that guy a criminal.

The Rock... Early evening. Hector The Great Blue Heron (Cousin of Henrik), enjoying the fresh air and scenery, while looking handsome under the setting Sun. Incredible plumage. Absolutely stunning. 📸🇨🇦 #GreatBlueHeron #Photography #Wildlife #Birds #BirdPhotography #Nature #OntarioParks #Canada

Sesame Street had him pegged back in 1988.

1/ For ProPublica’s “Life of the Mother” series, winner of the 2025 Pulitzer Prize for public service, we reported on five pregnant women who died after not receiving timely medical care in states with strict abortion bans. These are their stories 🧵

As always, be careful sharing rumors during fast-moving news events. People will try to hijack the momentum with disinformation. I’m seeing rumors of Indian jets being shot down and Pakistan retaliating with ballistic missiles — so far, none of that is confirmed.

BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: Sen. Elizabeth Warren just exposed a crypto scam where Trump and his family stand to make more than $60,000,000 from a $2 billion Saudi-Binance deal, where the purchase will use Trump’s coin. This MUST be exposed.

This is fascism.

NEW: Tulsi Gabbard, now the US director of national intelligence, used the same easily cracked password for different online accounts including a personal Gmail account and Dropbox over a period of years, leaked records reviewed by WIRED reveal.

“I think this says that they will not tolerate us being active participants in our democracy—they want an autocracy,” Emily Feiner told Mother Jones. Meet the 64-year-old retired social worker who went viral after being forcibly removed from her representative's town hall.

Auchincloss on Fox News: "What I'm seeing is a president who is more interested in the valuation of his memecoin than he is about people's 401ks. What I'm seeing is a president who along with Howard Lutnick is self-dealing on crypto instead of worrying about the strength of the US dollar."

Chutzpah is lying to dodge the draft and then asking the Army to celebrate your damn birthday.

Tommy Tuberville says his wife's homestead exemption established his residency in Alabama, but election records show both of them voted in Florida after that. And that's only the beginning.

Yesterday: “Do your own research” (Don’t) Today: “MMR has aborted fetus debris” (It doesn’t) What will it be tomorrow? Clot shot, turbo cancer, 5G, or mRNA makes you magnetic? Looking forward to watching the HHS Secretary trying to stick a nickel on his arm.

Call it something fancy like "malfeasance" or something simple like "incompetence" but either way there should be articles of impeachment to remove the HHS secretary for being a shameless liar who is working relentlessly to make people sick.

Shoutout to @repsummerlee.bsky.social for truth telling! “We cannot simply say that we will take away the opportunities for students to access loans and not replace it with anything else.” That’s the GOP’s whole plan: block access, bury us in debt, and force us into low-wage jobs with no way out.

Just incredible

Republicans just voted down my amendment on the Oversight committee that would nullify their budget cuts if the President defies a Supreme Court ruling. Why? Chair Comer said that the budget could actually be nullified. He conceded that Trump is and can defy a ruling.

1. Clay Jackson, a Texas lawyer, provided basic legal advice to an immigrant family fearing deportation Then, two officers visited him at his home, accusing him of "obstructing an ongoing immigration investigation" Then, after speaking publicly, he was fired from his job at a Fortune 500 company
