Can an elder please get this Jack Mormon back to church, off of the internet, and maybe convince him to resign from the Senate in shame, assuming he is capable? Disgusting.

Or a Greek playwright

Me: what’s moby dick about AI: Richard Melville Hall (September 11, 1965), known professionally as Moby, is an American musician, songwriter, record producer, disc jockey, and animal rights activist. He has sold 20 million records worldwide. Me: yes, you fools have wasted your life on that book

The owner of Twitter sends out 100 right wing propaganda tweets every single day and the algorithm is set up so that every single person on Twitter has to see every single one of these tweets. Now here’s another piece about Blue Sky’s ideological diversity problem.

Our military deserves better than this empty charade. Yikes. The tank squeaking over silence is incredible.

How many reporters are currently working on tell-all exposés about their own organization, detailing all the acts of cowardice of their editors and publishers? I won’t ever buy your book about Sleepy Joe Biden, but I’d absolutely devour a book about the internal collapse of the NYT or CNN.

Despite wars popping off all over on his watch, Trump is still acting like a peacemaker — so here’s where an Indian News anchor said he is blatantly lying about deserving credit for the India-Pakistan ceasefire 👇🏽 “Like a broken record”

Arkansas' experiment with Medicaid work requirements found no evidence of increased employment but substantial reductions to health care coverage and access. The GOP is still pushing for nationwide implementation in their massive spending bill. buff.ly/4CuXqoJ #medicaid #polisky

Whoa! Hats off to ABC News reporter Matt Gutman for keeping his cool yesterday. This LAPD officer needs to be relieved of duty if he can’t handle an alleged “touch” without snapping.

A leader of the MN House Democrats is murdered by a Republican pro-life activist. Rather than condemning political murder of his opponents, Elon Musk spreads the conspiracy theory that it was done by Democrats. Journalists don’t need to use any social media site. But they really shouldn’t use X.

Donald Trump does NOT want you to share this footage of his pathetically tiny birthday parade crowd.

LAPD and LA Sheriffs tried to prevent two large protests from joining together in downtown and both departments ended up hitting EACH OTHER with impact munitions from across the same interesection.

What a juxtaposition. Via Alex Ward.

Look at what I just found. It would be a shame if it was spread all over the internet. 😆

I did not edit this, this is the actual parade with the actual music being played. CINEMATIC

The split screen today is incredible. A virtually empty scene for Trump’s military boondoggle in DC while millions pack the streets from coast to coast for #NoKings rallies to defend the constitution. He was weak before today and will look even weaker after.

One block over from the White House: the aspirational security line setup

Literally the Russian flag in the post. Two of them

US Veterans peacefully protesting Trump’s military birthday parade arrested at Capitol Hill. This is the moment a 80+ year old US veteran is taken away in handcuffs for practicing his 1st Amendment right. #3E #NoKings #NoKingsProtests (🎥 @gregjstoker.bsky.social )

Melissa Hortman, who was assassinated last night, was the Speaker of the Minnesota House in the 2023-2024 session, when Democrats ran the state government. That means she had a leading role in shepherding the many landmark reforms that Dems adopted in that period—an important legacy. Brief 🧵.

Walz announces that Rep. Melissa Hortman is dead as a result of a "politically motivated assassination"

Horrible. We don’t even know the motive yet so be careful what you post is what I’d advise www.fox9.com/news/melissa...

"Iranian officials had dismissed the warning signs that Israel was planning to strike nuclear sites as propaganda and a media frenzy aimed at pressuring Tehran into concessions in talks" www.nytimes.com/live/2025/06...

Let’s not forget that Alex Padilla is the first ever Latino to represent California in the United States Senate.

Senator Alex Padilla was fulfilling his Congressional oversight duties when he was thrown to the ground and handcuffed. This is no isolated instance; this is a pattern of behavior by the Trump administration. There is simply no justification for this abuse of authority.

This is the term we must use now, yes.

In the past week, a union leader has been arrested, a U.S. Rep charged with a crime, a U.S. Senator violently handcuffed, and reporters shot with rubber bullets and detained. There is no ambiguity. This is a regime operating as an authoritarian. Americans who believe in liberty must oppose it.

ICE agents saw a brown man speak up at Kristi Noem's conference and went to work. Didn't matter that it was Senator Padilla. Anyone who thinks their wealth, power and privilege will protect them, just see this video.

Senator Alex Padilla is a good man and principled public servant. The brazen and aggressive manhandling of Senator Padilla by the Trump administration is a sickening disgrace. Anyone who assaulted the Senator should be held accountable. No one is above the law.

Sen. Alex Padilla, who was just forcibly removed from a DHS press conference, is the ranking member of Judiciary’s subcommittee on immigration, citizenship, and border safety, which has “oversight of federal agencies with citizenship, asylum, refugee, and immigration enforcement responsibilities.”
