"Could you have waited until she finished to ask your questions? To shout your questions? You’re a senator, right? You couldn’t wait? That was just you out of control because you were just losing it." There are clowns in DC/NY who pitched this blowhard as a potential Dem presidential for 2028.

On Tuesday, a candidate won New Jersey's Dem primary for governor even though 66% of voters cast their ballot for someone else. With #RankedChoiceVoting, candidates need majority support to win.

The way the ICE officer, who looks like a middle-aged guy who's probably been doing the job for years, just casually tosses off that line... My guess would be that he felt he was doing her a favor; he was being reasonable within the bounds of his orders. But it's the orders that are unreasonable.

Moe Tkacik has traced the Air India plane to a terrible-quality run of Boeings that have started failing all over the place, but that managers under the new low-quality Boeing era pushed through production anyway because "none of these planes are staying in America, they’re all going overseas".

And then there's the widespread destruction of public goods (National Parks, Post Office, VA Healthcare, etc) that add all sorts of different flavors to the same rancid stew.

Even an appallingly loaded, dishonestly framed question of "Trump should deploy the military to bring order to violent protests" doesn't even command a majority.

There has consistently been no better shield or more effective armor for the most odious, bigoted, & fascistic individuals in the USA than hiding behind the words, "man of God". Christian privilege has paved the road for fascism, it must be dismantled if we are to move forward. #PaganSky #HeathenSky

🧵"In over 99.5 percent of protest events in April and May, we recorded no injuries, arrests, or property damage — an unprecedentedly tiny fraction for a movement of this size and geographic dispersion. Mobilization has also been nationwide."

Protests are up enormously, but reporting of those protests—other than running clips of burning Waymos—is practically nonexistent.

Great piece from James Baratta and Whitney Wimbish on the efforts to give private equity and crypto a chance at some of the $12 trillion sloshing around in 401(k) retirement plans. The impact on worker retirement will almost exclusively be negative here. prospect.org/power/2025-0...

My ~10 mins with MSNBC on yesterday AM made this vividly clear. Going on about immigration being Trump's strong suit & Dems still haven't figured out how to respond--totally contradicted by polls, as well as what's happening in the streets. Taking THAT as reality keeps them in an out-of-touch bubble

Last Sunday over 20 organizations from in and around the South Bay came together for an event where people could come learn how to get more involved. Now, more than ever, we need to stand up to this fascist government. Looking to find a place where you can be active? Visit: zurl.co/rkKWj

Also cannot be emphasized enough: Barack Obama successfully negotiated the shutdown of Iran's nuclear program. It exists today because Trump deliberately tore up that agreement. The deaths happening right now can be laid at his door.

Senator Padilla's assault is horrific, but he's telling us all that what moved him to question Noem was her explicitly stating the Feds were there to take control of the city from its democratically-elected government. The Senator obviously wants us to focus on Noem's nullification of CA government.

Always knew he was an ass. Just not this big of one. The video re McIver MIGHT be considered confusing. That of Padilla is CRYSTAL CLEAR. He was not the one doing theater. This is Fox News delusional.
