Stand up comedy show.

AOC: When they say illegal vs legal immigration—they are trying to end legal status in the US making people undocumented and then they have the audacity to call them illegal when they were here documented.

Padilla: “We will hold this administration accountable”

Gavin Newsom - If some of us can be snatched off the streets without a warrant, based only on suspicion or skin color, then none of us are safe. Authoritarian regimes begin by targeting people who are least able to defend themselves. #cdnpoli

Plaskett to Bessent: "Excuse me. Let me get something straight with you. I've seen you interrupt everyone. When you come to someone's house, you respect their rules. And in this house, we don't interrupt individuals. And you're not going to interrupt my time."

The ignorance is mind boggling.

„During his June 9 broadcast, Charlie Kirk used a chart sourced to the white nationalist organization American Renaissance. Kirk displayed the graph after claiming, “This is the great replacement theory” — referring to a white nationalist conspiracy theory

Can it be that these „people“ have been chipped and are running on some kind of Grok language model?

Here we go again. Just like in 2020 right-wingers will be posting old videos or videos from other countries claiming it was today in the US. All for clicks and to fan the flames of division and hatred. It’s part of their standard playbook.

Leavitt: "Hopefully this journalist will either be suspended or terminated. You cannot go on these unhinged rants against administration officials and the President of the United States."

Puppets „we were just following orders“

The president exists in a dystopian fantasy world with no connection to reality

Democrats are following an old communications strategy that does not work in a political environment where the ruling party is actively trying to destroy democracy, breaks the law and terrorises whole communities. Utterly pathetic.

KARL: There's a provision that eliminates a tax on gun silencers. It's been on the books for about 100 years. Why? MIKE JOHNSON: The 2nd Amendment is a critical freedom in the Constitution, and there's no real rationale for adding taxes on these pieces of equipment.

For some reason, I was just thinking about how Trump’s former chief of staff tried to warn us right before the election that Trump was a fascist who wanted to rule us like a dictator … and the New York Times put that story on page A12

(LAPD has said that the protests were peaceful. Hegseth is lying in order to build a smokescreen to potentially unleash the military onto civilians)

This isn’t hard or complicated. For people weighing in w/different versions of this theme: Musk isn’t a good guy, we forget nothing, he’s not on the team, never will be on the team. We don’t mind if this disgusting evil alliance comes apart. That doesn’t make us Team Elon. Next.

BIG, BEAUTIFUL BRAWL

Rep. Crockett IS THAT GIRL!!! She speaks the truth with exacting precision *in laypersons terms*. If the @housedemocrats.bsky.social are smart, they will make @repjasmine.bsky.social the ranking member of the House Oversight Committee. She is one of the most effective communicators we have!

AOC: The girls are fighting aren’t they

"I was this pedophile's biggest supporter until he was personally mean to me" seems like a bit of an own goal.

I used to think ChatGPT was a threat to lawyers. So far, it's been great. I'm dealing with an opposing party who's clearly using it to answer pre-litigation emails. They're very arrogantly giving me 100% wrong legal takes to justify their actions - and all in writing! Easiest case ever. And fun!

Pam Bondi isn't the best person to ask if the luxury jet given to Trump was a bribe

He’s so good at this.

Check out how the anchors of CBS Evening News ended their broadcast tonight:

Stick a 🍴 in it www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

🔥 @ninajankowicz.com to the European Parliament: "Before I describe the details of Russia's recent online influence campaigns, I would like to call upon you to stand firm against another autocracy: The United States of America."

Van Hollen: "I'm very glad that the killed of Rachel Morin has been convicted in a court of law. That is how we hold guilty people accountable ... I'm not sure why Abrego Garcia's rights should be denied based on an awful murder he had absolutely nothing to do with."

China is banning automakers from using the terms ‘smart driving’ and ‘autonomous driving’ when they advertise driving assistance features, and it will tighten scrutiny of such technology upgrades reut.rs/3GeuLz9

Steve Kerr wore a Harvard basketball shirt after the Warriors’ win tonight: “Yes, this is me supporting Harvard. Way to go. Way to stand up to the bully.”

Van Hollen: "If the president gets to shred the Constitution and ignore the Supreme Court in this case, it is a very short path to the president ignoring court orders in other cases. So every American should care about this."

This is a threat, as well as a promise. The promise of MAGA this time around was clear: purge the US from „enemies within“. Sounds like the threat of deportation to a foreign gulag could soon come for American citizens soon. No one is safe.

The EU doesn’t really do knee-jerk reactions. And when it comes to trade wars, it prepares its case, builds a consensus among its members — and saves its most painful retaliation until last. 🔗 ow.ly/JmHE50VyJsB

Former Sec of State Antony Blinken commented on the tariffs and the current state of American “diplomacy”

Euro € strengthens against the dollar $ as confidence in the stability of the U.S. currency declines.

Can we actually have accountability??

He’s pulled the knife half way out of the economy’s back, but the injury (no longer a reliable trading partner) will take years to heal. #stupid

Neuroscience research suggests that when individuals are heavily focused on power, wealth, or status, it can diminish their capacity for empathy and increase self-centered behavior. The brain can become wired to prioritize personal gain over the well-being of others.
