Mic drop.

💰 WATCH: “How is that happening?” 🤷🏼‍♂️ @aoc.bsky.social informs a confused RFK Jr. that his own HHS is stuffing the pockets of insurance companies by doubling the rates taxpayers pay them even as they defraud us. 🤔

He knew the court would order the planes turned around, and told his DoJ lawyers to tell the court to fuck off. This letter has already shown up in the South Sudan DVD case in a motion filed by the Plaintiffs at SCOTUS today.

Authoritarianism is here. This is not business as usual. Trump is weaponizing the law to punish dissent and instill fear. Thankful to have @massago.bsky.social testify in Washington about how Massachusetts is leading the charge against the Administration in the courts.

They’re assaulting the mothers and fathers of US soldiers. Roving gangs of masked men grab human beings off the street. They send them without due process to prisons in countries they’re not even from where they are then sold into slavery. Make it stop!!!

This is oligarchy. This is obscene. While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%. End this oligarchy.

Some thoughts on the current situation with Iran. Screenshot from the bad place.

😳😳

If you voted for him, I hold you responsible for Iran. You chose this. You chose him. For the third time, you had a chance to reject his vitriol, to condemn his criminality, to prevent his lawlessness, to denounce his bigotry—and you flat-out refused. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/to-the-peo...

Yep

Take note.

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far: A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

We REALLY need to stop saying every new heinous act is a distraction. It isn't a distraction, it's another checked box off the list. Each checked box is not a distraction from the last checked box, that's just how the media plays it. It's a list, not a distraction. People need to understand that.

Don't let them distract you. Republicans are trying to sell off millions of acres of your public lands to billionaire developers — all as they take away your benefits. Now is the time to make some noise.

This episode of The Apprentice sucks.

Q: Your intelligence community says they have no evidence that Iran is building a nuke TRUMP: Then my intelligence community is wrong. Who said that? Q: You director of national intelligence Tulsi Gabbard TRUMP: She's wrong

RFK Jr. is going to kill thousands of people. That’s not hyperbole.

Saying there are “too many non-working holidays” on Juneteenth is so on brand for a man who is actively trying to erase Black history. This from the same man who’s wasted over $26 million in taxpayer dollars and spent more than 30 days golfing since January 20, 2025? Please.

Of course I worry, I would be crazy not to. As you say, no one is safe. The question is what do we do about it? We all need to find our own way to stand up and speaking out. For me that means fighting in court, writing, and speaking in public.

Swalwell: You were promised lower prices on day one. How many of you are feeling those lower prices? You were promised an end to all wars on day one. How many of you have seen an end to those wars? Donald Trump is 0 for 150. He made those promises on day one—and now we’re on day 150.

We are facing a serious threat to democracy, law, and liberty. The abuse of prosecutorial power to intimidate, investigate, and detain political opponents is upon us. It is a constitutional crisis. I will keep speaking out until public outrage overflows. I just hope it’s not too little, too late.

Linden: Can you imagine if Donald Trump had run on no tax on tips—but only for a few years, only up to a certain amount, and only in a particular set of industries? That’s not a particularly compelling slogan—but that’s what the policy is.

Live in such a way that you trigger white Christian nationalists.

Break it, un-break it, take credit for it. Every time.

We went from UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER!!! to “we’ll see what happens in two weeks.”

Shouldn’t the NY Times headline note that this new policy breaks the law?

DHS wants 72 hours notice before inspections of detention facilities. Kind of defeats the purpose, doesn't it?

Three weeks ago tomorrow. 🤡

Trump been holed up in the White House all week and the best he could come up with on Iran is "I'll let you know in two weeks-ish." To call it theater of the absurd is too kind.

The Tucker-Cruz interview is two hours long but this is my favorite line so far

Ted Cruz has done a lot of odious, spiteful, awful shit in his lifetime. But making me side with Tucker Carlson in ANYTHING is FUCKED.

If I – as a U.S. Senator and Vice Chair of the Intelligence Committee – have no answers on what this administration’s policy is when it comes to Iran, what signals does that send to our allies? To our foes?
