America’s political scene is **flooded with distractions**—from Trump’s probe into Biden’s mental state to chaos in LA These tactics shift focus from real issues like economic instability and policy debates, keeping the public engaged in spectacle rather than substance.

What is happening in Los Angeles is not a distraction from Trump’s Billionaire Bailout Bill. The bill explicitly gives ICE and DHS the resources needed to do around the country what they’re doing in LA. We should call that out.

Turns out DOGE is more than just a fake agency, it’s cuts are fake too. A dog and pony show. Uncover the truth behind the fake “savings” and the real cost to taxpayers… like… your information. Watch now: m.youtube.com/watch?v=-8YR...

Happy June 2nd, everyone! It’s time for Marsha P Johnson on the Gay of the Day! Love and share! 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 #pride #pridemonth #lgbtq #lgbtqia #gay

Four years? Basically a never-ending Monday. But hey, even the slowest clock eventually runs out of minutes—just blink a few times, and you’re there!

SCOOP: The State Department's new reorganization plan includes the opening of an "Office for Remigration," a term popularized by far right extremists and neo-Nazis in Europe. The office will coordinate directly with DHS "to advance the President’s immigration agenda." My report:

Wow. Avelo airlines has covered up their logo to hide the fact that they're helping with mass deportation. Avelo's customer service number is (346) 616-9500. Feel free to give them a call and tell them how you feel about them.

CARTOON OF THE DAY😕 🇺🇸 (From @billbramhall.bsky.social )

Not gone by a long shot!

FOTUS’ “big ugly bill” is a billionaire scam, stuffed w/ tax loopholes reward ing the ultra-rich 4 “donating” to private school tuition 4 families making up to $500K. Tell Congress: NO to school vouchers, YES to equity. #HandsOffPublicSchools actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

Putrid—that’s the word that comes to mind when describing a person so vile, their very presence taints the air. Their character festers, dripping with deceit, selfishness, and rot disguised as charm. They poisonency, and leave behind the stench of betrayal, lingering long after they’re gone.

Donald Trump has increased his wealth by an average of $22.48 million every day since his inauguration. He’s cutting healthcare for people making $7.25 per hour, and giving tax breaks to him and his friends. This isn’t “America First,” — it’s “Trump First, America Last.”

Deaf individuals have every right to vote,yet their marginalization highlights a deeper need for inclusion.Ensuring accessibility isn't just a legal matter—it’s a step toward a future where every voice is valued.By breaking barriers, we pave the way for a society that embraces equality and progress.

New in PN: The Republican budget is an attack on the economy "As a moral document, the Republican budget is an abomination, delivering largesse to the most comfortable and cruelty to the most vulnerable. As an economic plan, it could hardly be dumber."

They don’t care if you’re a citizen anymore. They enjoy torturing us.

Education is the foundation of growth, empowerment, and progress. No obstacle—financial, social, or political—should ever strip someone of the right to learn. Knowledge fuels innovation, shapes destinies, and strengthens societies. It must remain accessible to all, forever.

I’m starting my annual walk across Connecticut today! Beginning in the very northwest corner of the state - Salisbury. I will talk to hundreds of people over the next few days about what they want (and don’t want!) from their elected leaders. My favorite week of the year!

Criminalizing healthcare providers does NOTHING to protect children. It endangers pregnant people - ESPECIALLY Black pregnant people. Politicians should have no place in health care decisions. @replsimon.bsky.social gives us a powerfully personal #CupOfJoe.

Go get 'em girl!

Welp Democracy it’s been fun 😒

Takano: This bill will hurt veterans. 1.5 million veterans get their healthcare through Medicaid. They are slashing programs to try to pay for these tax cuts—except they’re not actually paying for them. It’s going to create additional deficits, which means all of the cuts are only a partial payment.

Guy who got a "free" $400M plane from Qatar was up late tweeting about corruption.

It’s almost like principles are flexible when the price tag is high enough. Funny how moral clarity gets lost in the accounting department.

Pam Bondi lobbied for Qatar & a private prison company, got paid $115K/month, then failed to disclose it during her AG confirmation. Now she’s gutted foreign lobbying enforcement under FARA and signed off on $400m planes. The corruption isn’t even subtle anymore.

Facts!

Welcome to the resistance

The only call he should be making is to the undertaker—his political ambitions are six feet under!

Granddaughter of a Navy vet. Daughter of a Navy vet. Mother of an Army soldier. Not one damn dime should be spent on a military parade for a draft dodger…
