The Trump team thinks Confederate traitors who killed Americans are worth honoring. But Americans who fought at Normandy in D-Day like Medgar Evers, or served in the Navy like Harvey Milk and Cesar Chavez, or worked as a spy for the US Army like Harriet Tubman, well, they are NOT worth honoring.

"Just one more thing, sir. Since the election, you've announced 12 projects in foreign countries: the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Vietnam, India, Qatar, & Oman. You got a $400 million jet, sold meme coins, $600 sneakers, Chinese bibles, & hats. How is any of this making America great?"

It’s on record.

This idea is GENIUS! 😂😂🚨🚨⬇️

More of this.

Pride Month so far: Jonathan Joss is murdered in a disgusting hate crime and the Navy intentionally announces they are changing the name of the USNS HARVEY MILK. America... now more than ever... David Lynch's words ring loudly. "Fix your hearts or die." This cannot be our normal.

Are we great yet?

The Supreme Court just echoed the Abundance book in its new ruling advancing a fossil fuel industry plan to run oil trains right next to the Colorado River. One derailment could permanently destroy 40 million Americans' drinking water source. Abundance! www.levernews.com/an-oil-giant...

DOGE was a smash and grab robbery of our personal data.

Every word of this! Bravo Lawrence

I feel safer already.

Castor: They told Heidy Sánchez, ‘Come in early—we want to check on your status.’ And she did the right thing… And at that ICE meeting, they took her. They took her away from her child. This is a breastfeeding mother. They flew her to another detention center in Miami, and then onto a plane to Cuba.

Whitehouse on Trump’s attacks on Leonard Leo: This whole thing is hysterical… The fact that Trump is furious with him right now may signal a dawning realization: that he actually might not have truly chosen his Supreme Court appointees.

Wow—this is what community looks like. It’s heartwarming to see locals rally around Buona Forchetta after it was raided by ICE on Friday. In the face of fear and cruelty, San Diegans are showing up with solidarity.

Early rumors are that up to 40 Russian strategic bombers were destroyed in one of the most audacious operations I’ve ever seen. Get fucked, Vlad.

Cracked me up.

pardon me?

@jamestalarico.bsky.social: "It's reverse Robinhood. It's welfare for the wealthy. And it's a travesty that this [private school voucher] scam has passed into law here in Texas. But we should do everything we can to stop this from happening at the federal level."

I got a lot of death threats after I confronted Nancy Mace at a tech conference in DC and I guess it's nice to know that most of them were probably just from her and her bot army? www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

I'm saying this a lot these days... no words.

If you’re undocumented or have friends and family who are undocumented, watch and consider sharing this video. It’s a hard decision because there aren’t good options here, but it’s better to be aware of the possibility. Heads up could mean the difference.

John claims that the $800 billion in cuts to Medicaid actually aren't cuts at all.
