I love all the handwringing about Zohran’s lack of experience when a 19 year-old called Big Balls has recently been made a permanent federal employee with the title Senior Advisor at the GS-15 pay grade in the General Services Administration.

No lies told.

The reviews are in. www.indy100.com/politics/tru...

I noticed this, too. If you marched shitty on purpose, or know someone who did, my signal contact is in my bio. I’d love to know more about this, and I’ll keep you anonymous.

Walz: "This CANNOT be the norm. It cannot be the way that we deal with our political differences. Now's the time for us to recommit to the core values of this country. And each and every one of us can do it. Talk to a neighbor rather than arguing. Debate an issue. Shake hands. Find common ground."

This is a United States Senator mocking the assassination of a Minnesota legislator and her husband. He pretends to be a good Mormon. He’s a sick fuck.

Minneapolis Star-Tribune patiently debunks all the lies that were aggressively circulated by Rupert Murdoch's NY Post and by Elon Musk through the weekend. www.startribune.com/fact-check-d...

This will be a critical week for democracy in court. I founded Democracy Docket for times like this. It doesn't pull punches or engage in false equivalency. It's fiercely independent and always pro-democracy. Subscribe now. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0

BRENNAN: The public approval is so high of deportation PADILLA: It depends how you ask the question. If you ask the same people, 'Do you think we should maintain due process in the US?' the answer is overwhelmingly yes

Grateful the MN murderer was caught. Thank you to all law enforcement for keeping your heads focused. The murderer is not an immigrant. Not brown. He’s another. Radicalized. White. Guy.

Four-year-old Mark, who was saved by his mother Anna at the cost of her own life, is recovering. On the night of May 18, Anna Yefymenko, 27, was killed by a Russian drone attack. A direct hit on a residential building destroyed the family's home.

Patriot Front crashed Springfield, MO Pride festival. Driving a Penske truck. U-Haul banned Patriot Front from renting their vehicles. It’s time for people to tell Penske to do the same.

I just discovered this meme and I love it. Happy #PrideMonth to all my #LGBTQIA + friends!

A proper headline. Take note, @washingtonpost.com

"If you’re among the vast sea of Americans who remain enthusiastically grateful for vaccines, the time for pushing back against Kennedy isn’t later, when he’ll likely be ratcheting up his program to 'reevaluate' longstanding pediatric vaccines."

Mike Lee was born with every conceivable advantage in life. His father was US Solicitor Gen & dean of BYU Law, where Mike went to school. Older brother UT Sup Ct justice. Then he got jobs where family connections certainly help open doors. But he decided he wanted to be Catturd.

The US Army can march in unison. Synchronized. I don’t think they wanted to…

💔💔💔

Yesterday, millions of us reasserted the “We” in "We the people." We gained strength from our solidarity. We celebrated our numbers and our power. We will be steadfast. We will not cower to a dictator. We will win.

We won’t amplify it, but the president posting that Dems are “sick of mind” and “hate our country” immediately after 2 Dem lawmakers and their spouses were shot in their homes is the opposite of leadership. Gas on the fire.

Reminder to Arkansas officials: Public schools are no place for religious indoctrination. We'll see you in court.

It’s Adriana Smith’s birthday. The story is so horrifying on so many levels. She could not get proper medical treatment for a severe headache b/c she was pregnant. She DIED of this. Then the same hospital that wouldn’t treat her original illness put her on life support to save a 9wk old fetus…

I love seeing the massive #NoKings turnouts in major cities, but what I love even more are the hundreds and hundreds of small, rural towns that had relatively bigger turnouts compared to their populations 💙🙏

President Zelensky: “The Americans asked us not to strike Russia’s energy infrastructure—shortly after, Russia launched a combined attack on our energy facilities in Kremenchuk.”

Poor Orange Dictator 🤣😂

Just your average commander-in-chief pop-up shop.

Not only can working from home make you happier, for many disabled people it allows them to remain in the workforce It gives them autonomy & independence. Flexibility to attend doctors appointments and care for their health It’s a crucial accommodation, and removing it will harm disabled lives

Mike Pence: "The president was wrong to pardon people who assaulted police officers on January 6...Anyone who would ever use violence, whether it be against law enforcement of political violence, must be condemned universally."

Padilla on Noem: "How does the cabinet secretary not know the senator from California when she steps foot into Los Angeles? She came through the Senate for confirmation."

Minnesota assassin is still at large. I’ll discuss law enforcement response on @MSNBC at 7:30 am ET.

Greenberg: We're looking to the leaders who will fight for us, because even today there are folks among the Democratic Party who think we should roll over and play dead. Anyone seeing John Fetterman here today?

Yesssssss… I love this 🙌🏼

Look what I found when I searched "ICE uniform" in Google Shopping. None of us have any way of knowing if the "ICE agent" pushing you into a car, isn't just some unbalanced vigilante into cosplay. These are very dangerous times.

St. Joseph, MO #nokings

The Hortman family helped raise and train dogs to partner with veterans. One of the many reasons we will miss Melissa and Mark.

Martin: There is no doubt that that has been fomented by the far right in this country and extremism and violent rhetoric that exists in the far reaches of the internet that we have allowed to seep into into this country.. Well, it's bullshit

Whoa! Hats off to ABC News reporter Matt Gutman for keeping his cool yesterday. This LAPD officer needs to be relieved of duty if he can’t handle an alleged “touch” without snapping.

Thousands of protesters jammed the streets around Manhattan’s Bryant Park on Saturday afternoon in a massive march that spilled down Fifth Avenue.

Everything is going according to plan. Dogs barking. Can’t fly without umbrella. Foxtrot Delta Tango.

We, the people, have spoken!

Free speech for me, a felony for thee.

The most consequential Speaker in state history.
