Fact check: True.

Would probably be a good idea if California @agrobbonta.oag.ca.gov did a quick video statement describing the legality/illegality of what is happening and the legal basis for the position the Gov. intends to take. Better than letting confusion build and folks hashing it out on social media.

January Trump approval on the economy: plus +8.24 points Today Trump approval on the economy: minus -15.75 January Trump approval on inflation: plus +1.99 Today Trump approval on inflation: minus -22.24 So clearly it's time to deploy the Marines in L.A.? www.newsweek.com/donald-trump...

Both officers and detainees fell ill within 72 hours of landing in Djibouti, she added, with the ICE officers at risk of developing malaria due to not being vaccinated or taking appropriate medication before arriving in Djibouti.

“Scott said, ‘You’re a fraud. You’re a total fraud' ... Musk then rammed his shoulder into Bessent’s rib cage 'like a rugby player,' Bannon said, and Bessent hit him back."

Live after hours from the @michigandems.bsky.social @democrats.org peoples' town hall in Lansing on Friday night, with Senator Elissa Slotkin and Representative Kristen McDonald Rivet! People are dealing with a huge sense of uncertainty and even dread about what will happen to their health care.

Three wins today, June 3, 2025 – video edition!

Case in point is this message directed at me. Bigots proudly say such things there. My account is still up; I started the delete process a while back and then it stopped working. Need to finish it.

Harvey Milk served his country honorably — first in uniform, then in public office. Taking his name off this Navy ship sends a clear message, and it’s one of disrespect and cruelty.

Irresistible reposting of our response from Kyiv to Tucker Carlson's fawning over the Russian grocery store. @aglaser.bsky.social

It took me a while, but I can now see a purpose in speaking to the discussion of my departure from Yale for the University of Toronto. Here I address four public framings of last year’s move that arose in recent weeks, which tell us something of our present moment snyder.substack.com/p/last-years...

Three Wins Today (June 1, 2025) 1. Fri 5/30 Dallas had their pride flag raising ceremony.  2. Fri 5/30 The FDA approved a new kind of loop Covid vaccine for those who are immuno compromised and above 65.  1/

Dek here: "As Mr. Musk entered President Trump’s orbit, his private life grew increasingly tumultuous and his drug use was more intense than previously known." We find this out AFTER he's ripped apart the government for no reason and destroyed countless lives? www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/u...

President Trump and his family are extorting billions of dollars from US companies and foreign nations. In new piece for @TheAtlantic I examine past US corruption - and conclude Trump can't be compared to anything American, only Russia or Africa. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

24 additional exclamation marks AND a gumbo analogy “As explained in this Memorandum Opinion, this gumbo gives the Court heartburn.”

Don't be fooled by any of Trump's performative BS. Unless he actually pushes for sanctions, this is the crocodile tears of a narcissistic sociopath. Also, note that he blames Zelensky as much as Putin for the war--those bad Ukrainians, asking to be invaded!

"This is what we were voting for!" From a friend in academia: >>I was with a public health professor from [major university] last weekend and he said that NIH is now euthanizing whole cohorts of animals from animal studies because there is nobody around to feed them<< Great work.

A lot of people don’t understand that historically, antisemitism escalates quickly. What starts as marches and boycotts turns into murder. Now that it’s happened, you can’t deny it anymore.

From @simonwdc.bsky.social's email...get well Joe cards go here: I called them to ensure Joe would get the card if mailed to that address, and they confirmed that he would. President Joe Biden The Biden Institute 44 Kent Way Newark, DE 19716

DAILY DEMS DOING THE WORK, MAKING NOISE, AND FIGHTING BACK Day 117 Hello, I’m exhausted and you’ll find out why in a minute, but I really hope this helps make it easier for you to amplify electeds who are doing the work, because that is the point of the series after all 🧵

@catgyoung.bsky.social

Here's an example of people needing to have things spoonfed to them. There were complaints that Jeffries wasn't saying something about an issue, so I looked into it and learned that he did. A guy mentioned Toby Buckle's great article the other day, so I found it and read it. It's not hard to do.

🚨 🚨 The reason they snuck this contempt provision into the reconciliation bill is because they know their game plan. They know what threatens them. We have to fight hard to make sure this gets removed at the Senate. WATCH, read the 🧵 then RT

So interesting!

When you write a weekly column, you don’t love most of them. 😑 But I’m pretty good with this one and hope you’ll read it https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/may/17/trump-biden-election-media-coverage?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other

An apt demand from someone who I am pretty sure has never once soul searched abt a generations worth of fatuous columns

The United States Institute of Peace has been resurrected. Its staff, reinstated by a court ruling on Monday, have taken back their building. It turns out not all DOGE damage is permanent

"US states mount court challenge to Trump's tariffs" from @reuters.com. Read it here: www.reuters.com/sustainabili...

Taking on Trump’s illegal tariffs. Thank you, Oregon Atty. General Rayfield!

HASSAN: What is habeas corpus? NOEM: Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country HASSAN: That's incorrect

Freud calls this "projection."
