CARTOON OF THE DAY (From @dccartoonist.bsky.social ) #Juneteenth

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?

Organizers of the “No Kings” demonstrations said millions had marched in hundreds of events. #Pinks apnews.com/article/no-k...

Schrödinger's parade - the crowd was both sparse and dense.

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.

Let us all tip our hat for all of the people "protesting". Because this isn't protest this is straight defiance, it's part of our civic duty to uphold the Union our Founding Fathers fought and died for, though I cannot join, give 'em hell and rain on the Orange Turd's Parade #NoKings

Thank you to all of our service members and veterans. We appreciate you, your families, and your sacrifices for our country. Wish we were spending millions on you instead of a parade.

Trump throwing a military parade for himself despite never serving in the military is a metaphor for his entire existence.

Now we’re arresting 80 year old veterans peacefully protesting Trump’s military vanity birthday parade on Capitol Hill.

Instead of funding a military parade, we should be funding SNAP and Medicaid. It’s that simple.

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com Buffalo NY representing at the offices of Jeremy Jacobs. Top Trump donor from Western NY. His office bldg also houses the only ICE field office in NYS outside of NYC. Good turn out for a rainy work day.

"No Kings" protest in Williamsville near Buffalo, New York. Alone with my fears for American Democracy since Election Day, I now know that my community stands with me. No Kings! There were more honks of support, waves, and thumbs up than offensive gestures. The atmosphere was buoyant.

A nice size No Kings protest in little old Bellows Falls, Vermont today! Power to the People! ✊🇺🇸 #NoKings

This is an incredibly scary moment. Don’t speculate. Don’t spread unconfirmed information. Stay safe. The Governor will be speaking shortly: www.youtube.com/live/VHtHNAb...

What you can do to help right now: look up 287(g) ASAP to see if your local law enforcement has a contract with ICE. There is usually no expiration date on such contracts, which means they can be cancelled at any time with enough pressure from the local community.

Following my reporting that brought this issue to light, Glendale has cancelled their contract with DHS/ICE. Here’s the story that broke it: inadvertent.substack.com/p/glendale-p... Link to Glendale's post: x.com/MyGlendale/s...

“The way of peace can end suffering and oppression, not by warring against an enemy but by bearing witness to wrongs, and by allowing sympathy and common humanity to do their patient work." The way of peace is the path of love. #Pinks

For Pride, I’m remembering Lucy Hicks Anderson, trans woman who transitioned as a kid in the late 1800s. She was an incredible socialite and cook, so much so that when she was arrested and a banker got her out of jail because they had a party and she was the cook! We have always been here.

Why are so many law enforcement officers wearing masks now? Embarassed?

BREAKING: More than 1,000 anti-Trump protests are now planned for June 14th, Donald Trump's birthday. Are you protesting?

#PrideMonth Dr Rebecca Oppenheimer is an astrophysicist & co-discover of the first "brown dwarf." She is also transgender. "When you label someone and treat them differently because of some label, that is inhuman. When you hear and accept that someone has a different sense of who they are...

“One more question, sir. You wrote a book about the former president's cognitive issues, but the current president posted that the former president was executed in 2020 and replaced by a mindless, soulless robot with cancer. What am I missing here?”
