I probably like Rand Paul right now more than any other elected Republican ... and I HATE Rand Paul.

It's a miracle no one was killed. www.thedailybeast.com/gunman-opens...

Fabulous, spot-on piece on Justice Barrett. A must-read. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/15/u...

This RIGHT WING TERRORIST: - murdered Minnesota DEMOCRATS - is a registered Republican - supported Trump - is a fundamentalist Christian - is an anti-abortion extremist - had a big list of ALL DEMOCRATS to kill Mike Lee is a demented vile lying cretin. He should be CENSURED and forced to RESIGN.

'Colossal waste of time': Retired Army general disgusted after Trump parade www.rawstory.com/trump-parade...

ICE raiding a crowded supermarket in Rosemead, California with no identification, indistinguishable from cartel hitmen, pulling high caliber rifles on unarmed US citizens trying to ask questions about wtf is going on. #3E #StopICE

A real war just broke out in the Middle East bc of his incompetence and recklessness and Trump is going to have a military parade for his birthday.

If you are out at a No Kings Day protest send your photos and videos! Also I will be covering the day from 9-11pm tonight on MSNBC. So share all your stories.

Look at what I just found. It would be a shame if it was spread all over the internet. 😆

#Nokings San Diego

nobody caring about the trump parade, meanwhile more and more people going out to protest, is making me cautiously optimistic about the future of the US don’t make me regret my optimism please

Trump looking absolutely inconsolable at his fascist-themed 79th birthday party which no one turned up to other than those who had to because he's their boss.

The LA police should all be fired and then disbanded. A brand new police force is needed.

HAPPENING NOW: A long line of protesters have gathered in Oklahoma City for a “No Kings Day” protest against Donald Trump (Video: @tarablume.bsky.social)

Massive #NoKings march in New York City!

When Congress funded the DOD, there was no line item for big-boy birthday presidential military parades. Where did the money for Trump’s vainglorious spectacle come from? Cutting Army pay and benefits? Reducing training? Or just Departmental slush funds from bloated annual budgets?

Omgggg

Raskin: And the moment that somebody in public office begins to act like the master of the people. That is the moment to evict, eject, reject, impeach, try, convict, and start all over again .

Now Shut Up and Pay Up!

In no universe did Senator Alex Padilla “lunge” at anyone. This administration is full of pathological liars.

tacostrump is so incredibly stupid

Rep. Lynch: "In late March, ICE agents wearing masks detained Rümeysa Öztürk. And those of you who watched that abduction, when you compare the old films of the Gestapo grabbing people off the streets of Poland ... it does look like the Gestapo."

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.

Goldman: "These are people doing in the right way, who are nonviolent, noncriminal, and they're getting arrested. So what message does that send? Obviously it sends the message, 'Go further underground. Don't appear in court. Don't pay your taxes' ... that's just going to make the public less safe."

Today they have crossed a deep red line. We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

“You can’t even see Kristi Noem in the video….This notion that he was some physical threat to her is just absurd…It’s sick, and it’s hard to even dignify what Mike Johnson said with a response.” - @timmiller.bsky.social

Narrator voice: But we do live in that kind of country now. Millions of people voted for authoritarianism, despite ample warning that this would happen.

Hold up. Are you saying that the Trump Administration lies to these people and used them for propaganda? Color me shocked.

All these politicians talking about January 6th now, when they failed to impeach, failed to apply the 25th amendment, and failed to prevent a criminal felon from assuming the highest office again.

#USDemocracy Truth 👇

Thank you to those in mainstream media that have been willing to stand up and tell the truth, regardless of the consequences. Here's Bob Costas speaking out against Legacy Media for paying ransoms to Trump and folding under the pressure.

 "When we had the wildfires that devastated big chunks of our city, he did absolutely nothing. Now that we're in the middle of a non-emergency, send in the National Guard."
