How about we have party leaders focus on the words of a United States congressman - Sen. Tommy Tuberville of Alabama - who’s calling Black people “inner city rats” who leach off of America’s taxpayers. Stop the focus on municipal elections and get to this. Where is the censure and condemnation?

Have you guys been checking the live feed on the floor? What happened? Where was everyone? I see @schumer.senate.gov on the right. But where are the Republicans who are actually voting yes on this bill? They should all be there—listening to every last word. Earlier today…

Got an email from my Rep Ralph Norman. Noted that he had already voted on the Big Beautiful Bill. Eight times in the email he had to mention "The Big Beautiful Bill" May it be a resounding failure.

A right-wing Supreme Court majority let Trump rip away birthright citizenship, forcing individuals to file burdensome lawsuits to get it back. It’s a vile betrayal of our Constitution. We must stand up, speak out, and fight back. - Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz www.nbcnews.com/politics/sup...

That’s right. Cut this lying lunatic off! Every self-respecting news network should cut Trump off and fact-check him in real time. MSNBC did it right!

In this photo, Trump is standing next to King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands at the NATO Summit. The king is 6'2" and Trump is clearly SHORTER than him. It looks like Trump is 5’11” at most. That means Trump has been LYING for years when he claimed he is 6’3” tall. What a pathetic little man!

We were very happy to give this scoop to @marisakabas.bsky.social's The Handbasket because it is important to support independent journalists who are doing the hard work at this time. Giving this story to Marisa also guarantees it will be in The Washington Post verbatim exactly 48 hours later.

Neither shutting down the LGBTQ+ & trans youth suicide hotlines nor the corrupt Supreme Court anti-trans ruling that bans transgender care for minors will change the fact that trans people have existed, have always existed & will continue to exist, making the world better in ways bigots never will.

If passed, the SAVE Act would limit access to our democracy for millions of eligible voters. The House has already passed it, but the Senate can still stop it in its tracks. Tell your Senator to REJECT this bill in defense of our voting rights.

I love this. 2017, Billy Earl Dade Middle School in Dallas planned a “Breakfast with Dads” for boys whose fathers couldn’t attend. They asked for 50 volunteers—nearly 600 men showed up. This Father’s Day, let’s remember: You don’t have to be someone’s dad to be their example.

Outside the US Embassy in London today - the "No Tyrants" (rather than #NoKings) protest. About 500 gathered to say no to Trump and his policies. Clowns because (would-be) authoritarians hate to be mocked. (Strategic humor has brought down regimes...)
