Let’s head back east to check on No Kings events in Arizona. Lots of activity around the Phoenix area! But there are also events further away in smaller communities. These people don’t want a king either! Yuma, Kingman, Show Low, & Sierra Vista are just a few of the towns. Link to register below

Survivors of domestic abuse often struggle to leave their abusers if they are forced to abandon their pets. Now, in the latest attack on domestic violence services, Republicans are hoping to eliminate a program that helps shelters support survivors' pets.

WCK’s newest Gaza water desalination station is up & running at our Mawasi Field Kitchen. Here, we are able to distribute up to 45,000 liters of clean water daily. We're supporting families with lifesaving drinking water as we work to get food safely to our kitchens to resume cooking. #ChefsForGaza

I did not get picked for Jury Duty. I’m glad. I’m exhausted from the jury selection process and wasn’t prepared for a long day. Apparently I may still get paid for doing my civic duty.

Crypto is crashing. $TSLA is plummeting. Elmo pointing at the Epstein files. DJT threatening to cancel Elmo's subsidies and contracts. Kanye's calling for peace between bros. Catturd2 is begging everyone to calm down and be reasonable. Manospehere Twitter is assuring us this is all Alpha behavior.

The internet has made us insane. Apparently there are people now arguing that Harriet Tubman wasn’t real? Please touch grass.

Stephen Miller is privately raging over deportation numbers he deems too low. So he's shifting huge amounts of law enforcement resources away from fighting serious crimes and into his immigration crackdown. If voters knew about this, they'd recoil. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/1961...

Holy shit. This is what Joni Ernst had to say to a scared Iowan telling her that her attacks on Medicaid and food stamps are going to hurt people.

If you are against xenophobia, if you are against Trump's anti-immigrant agenda, if you are against the targeting and unlawful deportation of Black and brown immigrants, then you must stand up. #FreeDylan #FreeThemAll

@bobcesca.bsky.social tornado chances for your area tonight

Glenn Greenwald has been a vocal January 6th denier for years. Prior to that, he was legal counsel for white supremacists and neo-Nazis. So yeah, I really don't care about his sex tape getting leaked. I doubt many boners will be had over its contents, anyway.

It’s HERE, y’all. 🗣️@koreanbeef27 This is perfection.

I take the subway by myself multiple times literally every day and the most memorable things that have happened recently are that a very cute dog in a purple sweater was on my train car a few days ago and today a guy with a cane got on and literally four people immediately sprang up so he could sit

The RECOVER team has just published a paper showing that 14% of infants and toddlers and 15% of preschoolers have symptoms of LongCOVID compared to uninfected kids. COVID19 vaccines have been shown to reduce the risk of LongCOVID, but RFK Jr. has decided this isn’t important. Link ⬇️

Troy, a small Idaho city, “kept to itself. Then a Christian nationalist church [tied to Christ Church pastor Doug Wilson] asked the US Government to intervene.” This month, the DOJ sued the city, claiming that Troy had “discriminated against the church on the basis of religion.” 5/25/25 1/

REMINDER: Medicaid recipients are often employed, frequently working multiple jobs. Ripping away health care access for millions to enrich a handful of billionaires is absurd.

Trump is slowly firing the National Security Council staff. The goal is to destroy it as it currently exists so it cannot act as a barrier to Trump. This is real. This is happening. Honor our vets by fighting modern fascism here at home. apple.news/ARG1xSG2AQOu...

Trying to sell furniture is a pain in the ass. And I’m selling for less than most people are. Some people even sell for more than value or as if new. 🤦🏼‍♀️

A month after a woman in Crown Heights was mobbed, kicked, spat on and threatened with rape by a group of more than 100 Orthodox Jewish men and boys, none of the members of that pro-Israel mob have been arrested—despite the highly-publicized evidence.
