It’s time to unmask ICE!!! #UnmaskIce Full video on Substack (free for anyone to watch)

For nearly a century, generation after generation has defended and expanded our Social Security system. Social Security can continue to deliver benefits for generations to come if we make the ultra-rich pay their fair share.

They are taking money from the poor to hand to the rich. Reverse Robin Hood politics. We must reject the “Big Beautiful” Bullshit.

“Ask your Supreme Court Justice which medical procedure is right for you.”

Fuerza responds to scenes where alleged ICE enforcement is reported. If officers are indeed with ICE, they hit record and spread the word. They also speak directly with those being detained. They are part of a growing scrappy network of volunteers protecting neighbors from ICE. bit.ly/4lgke5N

wowow @lmatsakis.bsky.social interviewed the great @greenwell.bsky.social about her excellent new book: www.wired.com/story/megan-...

It didn't have to be this way.

OP-ED: “.. The tweets were unacceptable for anyone, let alone from a member of the Senate. It revealed a lack of compassion for both victims and their loved ones and cast a poor light on Utah .. An apology .. should follow.” @deseret.com.web.brid.gy #UTsen www.deseret.com/opinion/2025...

A good question given that the Non-Detention Act (18 U.S. Code § 4001) prohibits the detention of US citizens w/o congressional authorization. "No citizen shall be imprisoned or otherwise detained by the United States except pursuant to an Act of Congress." No exception for temporary detentions.

Hegseth should be removed for this comment alone. The deployment of US troops against our own citizens should be an unquestionable boundary we never cross.

Democrats must immediately launch investigations and hold public hearings (sanctioned or unsanctioned) into why masked federal agents and ICE are snatching people off the streets without warrants, charges, or due process. @democrats.senate.gov @housedemocrats.bsky.social

SLOTKIN TO HEGSETH: “Your Republican predecessor has more guts and balls than you… he wrote that he was asked to shoot at their legs… you don’t understand who we are as a country.” Hegseth tells her not to believe everything she reads “except in the Bible”

Now that's a military parade I'd want to watch! #nokings #puppies

The toddler’s birthday was a flop. He made a fool of himself at the G7. Millions of people showed how much they despise him. Now he will take us to war to appease his malignant narcissism. I am tired of being subjected to his narcissistic whims.

I grew up in the suburbs of St. Louis, my adopted dad was a french horn player in the St. Louis symphony. I still feel proud in moments like this.

SCOOP: The "Appeal To Heaven" flag, a popular symbol for Christian nationalists that was waved by January 6 rioters, was raised over the Small Business Administration headquarters last week.

Let’s not become numb to this horrifying stuff. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/17/n...

A very quick Substack post on why the president SHOULD NOT BE POSTING during a major crisis, and how Trump's Truth Social posts increase the chances of a very bad outcome (including ones that he may not want). panda.substack.com/p/the-presid...

STOP. CALLING. FASCISM. A. DISTRACTION. We know. Your pollsters say that healthcare is our best issue so you want to talk about only that. Your pollsters don't know how to use or read their own polls.

Sotomayor: "The majority subjects a law that plainly discriminates on the basis of sex to mere rational-basis review. By retreating from meaningful judicial review exactly where it matters most, the Court abandons transgender children and their families to political whims. In sadness, I dissent."

Really is wild that we're at "plain clothes goon in an unmarked pickup jumping out and immediately pointing assault rifles at unarmed civilians" territory

Remember when Brad Lander Caught Kristi Noem Stealing $80 Million? www.emptywheel.net/2025/06/18/r...

This is going to come as news to the President. 🤡 www.reuters.com/world/asia-p...

Illinois has enshrined protections to meet this very moment. In a time of increasing overreach and hateful rhetoric, it's more important than ever to reaffirm our commitment to the rights and dignity of the LGBTQ+ community. You have a home here always.

There’s going to be so much peace, you won’t be able to stand all the peace. Peace the likes of which nobody has ever seen before.

SchrĂśdinger's felony.

The editorial board of a publication in Sen. Mike Lee's home state of Utah called on him to apologize for his posts about the Minnesota shootings, writing that they “were unacceptable for anyone, let alone from a member of the Senate.”

You've figured out The GEO Group & CoreCivic shouldn't exist, much less receive our taxpayer dollars. The next question for most people is, "What do we DO about it?" The answer: We organize! But first it's helpful to understand the structures that support these companies.

BREAKING: Social Security’s trustees report that the system is fully affordable, as long as we make the wealthy pay in at the same rate as the rest of us.

CAUTION: Bounty Hunters are working in groups inside of California. If gangs were created for anything it is for these occasions. These aren’t Feds. Unmask them @governor.ca.gov

The leaders of North America: Canada's PM Carney and Mexico's Sheinbaum at the #G7 Summit

"The People United, Will Never Be Defeated!" chant crowds as they welcome Mayoral Candidate Brad Lander after he was released from ICE custody with charges dismissed.

me: haha how could anyone be so gullible that they'd buy magic beans tech industry: the next big thing is a Money Algorithm that you run on a billion GPUs all at once to get Even Richer. Venture capital has given us infinity money for this concept. We have no business model. me: ah.

"You don’t have the authority to arrest US citizens. I’m not obstructing, I am standing right here in the hallway. … You don’t have the authority to arrest US citizens asking for a judicial warrant.” www.amny.com/news/brad-la...

damn -- Duckworth to Hegseth: "If you want to be the DHS secretary, maybe you can apply for that job when you're fired from this one due to your incompetence."

Justice Sotomayor's dissent in Skrmetti (which she's now reading from the bench) is deeply pained, accusing her colleagues of abandoning "transgender children and their families to political whims" and badly damaging "bedrock" principles of equal protection. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

For those unconditionally cheering the attacks on Iran, remember that our early strikes in Afghanistan and Iraq were “successful”. But we ended up getting dragged into costly wars that created more terrorists than we killed. The American people haven’t forgotten that.

That’s exactly what this is about. Distraction. For all of this and that lame duck, low energy spectacle

Don’t worry Ms. Noem. We will take good care of you!

NEW: ProPublica has sued the FDA, accusing the agency of withholding information about the safety and availability of generic drugs critical to millions of Americans.

💰 Trump signs an ICE deal with @CoreCivic — the private prison company with high death rates that fails every audit here in Tennessee. A reminder what they’re doing to immigrants isn’t just cruel, it’s also big business. www.pbs.org/newshour/nat...

From the NSC to FEMA to NOAA to CDC to the IC to counter-terrorism centers to agencies that are supposed to protect from financial meltdowns, every part of the US government designed to protect us from crises is weaker today than it was before Trump took over. newrepublic.com/article/1968...
