Mr. Antiwar President has us inches away from a Civil War at home and a nuclear war abroad in defense of an ally that is starting random hot regional wars to detract from its ongoing genocide. I’m sure all of this will just naturally cool off.

Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife. While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE. This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.

Do you know what I think? I think People like Gov Pritzker need to go to pressers with a strong security detail, and when they attack a sitting Senator or governor, have your security detail take THEM down and handcuff THEM!!! Enough is enough!!! I mean, come the fuck on!!! #NoKings

NEW: The Oklahoma Supreme Court ruled that a 2021 censorship law can't be used to ban teaching about race and gender in Oklahoma's higher education institutions. This is a win for academic freedom and the First Amendment.

My partner & I were trying to ID a bird we heard while walking and the guy who had stopped his car to let us pass got out and was like "it's a frog, actually. Cope's Gray. I do frog surveys... Sorry" And then got in his car without a word and drove off. Absolute king

Call me cautious, but I’m not optimistic about a war run by a reality TV show Commander-in-Chief and his TV talk show chatterbox Secretary of Defense.

The Minnesota shooter apparently used data broker websites to find the home addresses of the people he shot and murdered. Congress has had years to do something about data brokers and they've sided with the tech lobby over and over again. Their inaction is deadly.

Tonight, I'll go home and sleep in my bed. I have a lawyer, I'll get due process. But Edgardo, whose arm was ripped from mine by ICE agents, has none of those things. That's why I'll keep coming back to court, week after week, to make sure that people's rights are protected.

A perfect Sunday podcast! "Strict Scrutiny" host and Michigan Law Professor @leahlitman.bsky.social joins me to discuss the Supreme Court’s long game, teaching constitutional law, and my argument that she is the Democratic Joe Rogan. I hope you watch and enjoy! youtu.be/fVgaHu5jCFU

I lost my dad on Father’s Day 2019. Doesn’t matter how long the time goes by, it’s never any easier for me. I’m grateful for the gift of my wonderful father. He was the best of us. Happy Father’s Day to you amazing dads, father figures, and folks who are stepping up in all of the ways. ♥️

He will punish us because millions marched against him and so few showed up to his narcissist parade, you could hear the tanks squeaking. Once again crowd size will embarrass him. He’ll punish us and then he back down a little. Because he’s weak and unwell.

In 2020, when I told people that I was building a pro-democracy media outlet, people thought I was kidding. When I told them it was because the fight for democracy was the fight of our time, they thought I was being overly dramatic. Well...here we are. Please subscribe now. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0

The right wing claims that: 1. Both Trump assassination attempts were done by the left 2. The Minnesota assassin is a member of the left On both LIES we must push back HARD. Because the TRUTH IS: 1. Both Trump assassins were Trump voters 2. The Minnesota assassin is a right wing extremist

Just a few days ago, Speaker Mike Johnson, the puritanical pixie twit, refused to rule out arresting Governor Newsom. He added that Newsom should be “tarred and feathered,” a form of torture popularized by vigilantes. He is a reckless hypocrite.
