True patriots don’t believe the president should be a king. True patriots don’t support an attempted coup. True patriots don't want to strip Americans of our freedoms. It’s time to stop letting Republicans claim the mantle of patriotism. They’ve done nothing to deserve it.

Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry

Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring. They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died. France also gave us this land as American soil.

Trump will host a private dinner tomorrow for the top buyers of his memecoin, which has made him the world's newest crypto billionaire. The top 25 coin buyers will get a "VIP White House tour." Call it what it is: corruption.

Cases of measles, salmonella, listeria, and hepatitis A and C have spread throughout the country. But since Trump's inauguration, CDC newsletters, health alerts about disease outbreaks, and other communications have largely stopped. "Make American Healthy Again."

Good morning #BlueSky 😁💙 Me at the gym. 😂

An agency told to hit their numbers, or else, can’t take the time to sit around and wait for our family to get cancer medicine. Too slow! Got to keep the assembly line running.

The Trump administration has deported a 2-year old U.S. citizen to one of the most violent countries in the world. Why does the House Republican majority continue to enable this disgusting, unchristian-like behavior? These people are unfit to govern.

An 89-year-old Holocaust survivor. A 93-year-old woman who never protested before. They're mad as hell at what Trump is doing to America, as they joined about 80 others in their senior complex in Haverford, Pa. for a "No Kings!" protest like no other My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/comm...

38% of people living in Mike Johnson's district were enrolled in Medicaid last year. Yet Johnson is pushing for devastating cuts to Medicaid — all to pay for tax cuts that will predominantly go to the rich. Is there a better encapsulation of the Republican Party?

The White House just put out a statement threatening to veto this bill if it reaches Trump's desk. punchbowl.news/sap-s-1272/

Last week, I wrote about how authoritarianism leads to poverty and corruption. Feels like an appropriate moment to post it again. www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...

Not joking: as of today Donald Trump is the absolute greatest destroyer of wealth the country has ever had

Trump has dropped over 100 enforcement actions against corporations. That includes 10 corporations that have donated to or allied with him — like SpaceX, crypto corporation Coinbase, and private prison corporation GEO Group. This is corruption of the highest degree.

Yep

El Capitan displays a massive American flag upside down—the traditional signal of distress or extreme emergency.

A reminder that Elon Musk's corporations were promised $3 billion across nearly 100 different contracts last year with 17 federal agencies. While DOGE cuts essential services for you, Musk is getting a taxpayer-funded windfall.

At least Germany hasn’t lost sight of history.

New from 404 Media: inside the gov meeting where Musk ally laid out plans for data sharing across gov/AI. We got audio. In the call an employee pushed back and said the plan would be “illegal.” Musk ally said “we should still push forward and see what we can do.” www.404media.co/things-are-g...
