Fetterman said he didn’t want to spend his summer “sitting in the Capitol.” Cool. Millions of Americans don’t want to die because they can’t afford insulin. You were elected to work, not to tan your ass in Delaware.

We now have a concentration camp in Florida. Stop pretending any of this is normal. If you claim to be a good person and you're not outwardly opposing this regime, you're not a good person. Be human.

Many foreign-born nursing home employees have had their work permits revoked: “I’ve just spent my morning firing good, honest people because the federal government told us that we had to.”

if your usually lucid, elder loved one suddenly becomes confused and agitated overnight for seemingly no reason, I’m here to tell you that like 9 times out of 10, it’s a UTI. that shit hits different when you get old

Here he is, folks. The President of the United States selling his new men’s cologne for $199 and women’s perfume for $249.

Chris Murphy: "This is the most deeply immoral piece of legislation I have ever voted on in my entire time in Congress."

Warnock: "We are engaged in Robin Hood in reverse ... this is socialism for the rich."

ah yeah, of course

A joy to march in NYC Pride with the people's champ Tish James 🏳️‍🌈

Actually what Americans just saw today was a prominent Republican US Senator announce he is quitting because he knows this budget is going to hurt millions of people and he was repeatedly threatened by the president and his cult for telling the truth about it.

In today’s episode of What Are They Thinking: “If you don’t see a hurricane coming… does it really exist?” 🚨 The Dept of Defense is shutting down its weather satellite program. No more data. No more updates. Meteorologists are scrambling—and we’re heading into peak storm season. Brilliant timing.

They really think we are all morons

Republican Senator Thom Thillis is voting against the BBB and not running again and speaking his mind freely. Why do Republicans have to resign from office before they can say the truth? Can somebody anybody please tell me why

Bernie Sanders: “It is obscene to give tax breaks to the top 1% by throwing more than 16 million people off health care, cutting nutrition for hungry kids and making it harder for working class young people to go to college. That is exactly what Trump's budget reconciliation bill does.”

That’s right. The billionaire bailout bill forces your tax dollars to pay for concentration camps and masked thugs to disappear your neighbors without due process. 16M people will be thrown off healthcare to pay for that, along with tax breaks for the rich.

It’s a shame that so many Republicans vote for something they know will hurt their constituents & the country simply because they are afraid that Trump will threaten them if they don’t go along with it, & they are more concerned about his vindictiveness than they are about them.

Very interesting!! Maybe someday chemo will be a treatment of the past! I love science! www.sciencealert.com/scientists-d...

A JELLYFISH Congress and a Complicit SCOTUS.... could have never been envisioned....

Whoa! Alligator Alcatraz is going to be complete by Tuesday and open for operation on Wednesday. Am I the only one wondering how Ron DeSantis got this together so fast? Floridians, make sure you remember this the next time a hurricane hits and you can’t get disaster relief in your state.

a little grace goes a long way

Lisa Murkowski cuts a last minute deal solely to benefit Alaska, exempting it from some of the more odious parts of the bill to secure her vote and sell out the rest of the US. Yeah this stuff sucks and hurts a lot of people, but I got Alaskans exempted so the hell with you.

Jesus wouldn't have cut $930 billion from Medicaid just to give billionaires more tax breaks.

Last night, First Class pilot Lieutenant Colonel Maksym Ustymenko was killed while flying an F-16 aircraft and defending #Ukraine’s skies from a Russian attack. Maksym used the full range of onboard weapons and shot down seven Russian targets⤵️

Wow the folks on Threads are not playing around calling for threads and Instagram to reinstate us after banning us for no stated reason, with no warnings given, appears to be the #1 trending topic there We appreciate this more than y’all know 🙏🏽

“Once a constitutional crisis becomes an endemic condition, the term no longer usefully describes our collapsing system. Instead, we live in an era of constitutional failure when the relevant institutions cannot fulfill their responsibilities.” washingtonmonthly.com/2025/06/27/i...

What Bill is pointing at here is the de facto reality that we do not have a functional & lawfully-supreme Constitution anymore.

The First Amendment exists for a reason. The government can't take over a university to impose their ideology.

Last chance to light up your senators phones about the big bad bill. Have a list of reasons to vote against it to read to your red senators. And ask your Dem senators to insist the bill be read in its entirety on the floor so no one can claim they didn't know what was in it.

Hungary banned anything that “promotes homosexuality,” which means Pride. However, today over 500,000 people in Budapest told the government to fuck off. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Don't give up. They want you to feel demoralized. Don't give them the satisfaction.

I can't tell if it's because I'm too NYC focused but does it feel like the news cycle spent more time crashing out on the fact that NYC picked a brown Muslim dude as is primary candidate then it did on a right wing extremist who shot 2 Minnesota legislators killing one, her husband and dog?

Thinking again about how the media turned Bill Clinton talking to AG Loretta Lynch for 15 minutes into a major scandal for Hillary Clinton during the 2016 election.
