Lemon, it’s Wednesday

Health groups are mobilizing behind the scenes to preserve access for vaccines as Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. works to upend the nation’s decades-old vaccine system, according to public health experts.

So this dude no longer says Obama’s a Muslim?

Looking forward to all the think-pieces on how the commentariat needs to get out of its X echo chamber and spend more time on Bluesky to see what ordinary Americans actually think. on.ft.com/4kTYBYZ

Can Big Balls be located? Would be a damn shame if the rest of his life got ruined.

One of the SpaceX fan cams caught a crane collapse at Starbase in Texas. This kind of thing only happens from a completely unacceptable safety culture failure and I'd be shocked if there wasn't a death here

most transparent(ly evil) administration in history

McConnell knows Republican voters will not blame Republican lawmakers for the fact that Republican lawmakers are picking the pockets of Republican voters. They will blame the Democrats, always. So yes, they will get over it.

"That's a hell of an act, what do you call it?" "The unitary executive!"

Phang: If you were scrolling on social media and saw a dog locked up in the middle of the Everglades—in the sun, in the heat, in the humidity—the outrage would be wild, wouldn’t it? But then—we’re okay with human beings being treated like that?

When someone's local hospital closes, they won't "get over it."   When someone's nursing home closes, they won't "get over it."   When someone's kid is kicked off health care, they won't "get over it."   America, let these Republicans know you will NOT "get over" cuts to Medicaid.

Iran Trolls Trump by Claiming Its Nuclear Program Is Already Back Up The statement came as questions mount over the degree of damage to Iran’s nuclear facilities.

SCOOP: Edward "Big Balls" Coristine resigned from the government, and subsequently DOGE, on Monday. w/ @jakelahut.writes.news, @telliotter.bsky.social, + @zoeschiffer.bsky.social www.wired.com/story/big-ba...

What a broken fucking country.

The 1st Amendment is no longer worth the paper it's written on, according to our government.

The guy who pushed the notion that people are being controlled by microchips pushed by Bill Gates, now wants people to wear tracking devices.

There are moments when you can very clearly tell that Karoline Leavitt is a 27 year old and this right here is one of them

It’s not shocking that this ceasefire didn’t last, it’s shocking that we have a country full of people who simultaneously have zero memory and zero foresight.

I will be joining @jessicadenson07.bsky.social live on this show which will start today at 4:30 pm ET with an interview with @algreen.house.gov, the Representative with the courage to force the first House floor vote on impeachment in this presidential term. It will not be last. @fsfp.bsky.social

There is no press outlet of any size, in any medium, that would offer this kind of coverage to a Democratic president, no matter the circumstances. There is a massive, explicit agitprop operation on the right, devoted to the power of the conservative faction, & there is no analogue on the left.

CNN: Three sources tell CNN that according to an early U.S. Intelligence assessment, the U.S. Military strikes on three of Iran's nuclear facilities last weekend did not destroy the core components of the country's nuclear program and likely only set it back a few months

After the world's richest man spent the weekend of February 1st illegally obliterating our development assistance agency, many of us sounded the alarm that he was unleashing a wave of death all over the world. He said he "gave zero f***s" about those warnings. Literally his exact words.

i am simply asking the press to cover the government sending masked thugs to rip people from their crying children and shipping them to a foreign concentration camp with the same ferocity they cover a trans kid playing jv tennis in sheboygan

Q: Are you still committed to Article 5 of NATO? TRUMP: It depends on your definition (That's a no)

“In Pasadena last week, a man stepped out of his unmarked vehicle at an intersection, unholstered his pistol and aimed it at a group of pedestrians before returning to his car… That incident left the police chief of Pasadena resigned to figure out whether it was a crime or part of a federal raid.”

to call this a crime against humanity is true but inadequate — it’s a crime against all creation

I have no skin in the game obviously, but c'mon New York - don't rank the sex pest. The mind boggles that this isn't obvious to literally everyone.

The whole world watched Bibi play Trump like a fiddle so he’s having one of his man-baby temper tantrums.

From today’s House Energy & Commerce Committee hearing: Rep. Raul Ruiz excoriates RFK Jr.’s dangerous anti-science record, saying a pre-med student would’ve flunked if they turned in his MAHA report. (We might’ve added the sticky note. He earned it. 🧪❌) 📸👇

Tupac wasn’t just a rapper, he was a truth-teller. He gave voice to pain, injustice, and dreams that America refused to hear. This quote still hits because the fight he spoke of in 1993 never ended.

it like doesn’t even occur to him that he could do something other than posting (eg threaten through back channels to cut off weapons)

This is self-refuting drivel by an old man who clearly doesn’t understand digital technology. A cartoonist doing this exact same work would be denied fair use under these conditions. Why is it okay for a big company?

at some point in the last decade, Trump heard someone say, “the likes of which you’ve never seen before” and was like oh hellll yeah I’m gonna use that for everything

The Bove allegations should be treated as something akin to Watergate, or Iran Contra. The administration was attempting to do something they *knew* was illegal (anticipating the courts saying as much), and then trying to COVER IT UP. Only here instead of it being run out of the WH or NSC, it’s DOJ

wow 14 million people losing Obamacare coverage. seems like a lot.

JUST IN: A federal appeals court has ordered the return of yet another man deported to El Salvador in violation of a court order. Jordin Melgar-Salmeron was deported on May 7, 30 minutes after the court ruled. Details TK s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

“Bove stated that D.O.J. would need to consider telling the courts ‘fuck you’ and ignore any such order.” This story is just a blockbuster in every way - exposing Bove & others to both contempt and a suite of bar ethics charges. Hope to add more as time permits, but the whistleblower a hero.

From the guy that brought you the bill to rename Greenland "Red, White, and Blue Land." I wish I were kidding.

The rest of the world really needs to start blocking MAGA tourists

“The sun sets in the East. I said that. The president said that. How many times do we have to tell you?”
