There it is. Rep. Mike Collins (R-GA) says Republicans’ next goal is to kick seniors off Social Security: “Get off of Social Security. Get back into the workforce.”

If you can't stand receiving public criticism, then public service is not a career path for you.

West Virginia is warning that women who have a miscarriage could be charged with a crime unless they contact local police. Every woman in WV should call 911 every time they have a period. Gum up the system with malicious compliance. www.cnn.com/2025/06/06/h...

Bondi DOJ has a problem. On left: DOJ Indictment and Detention Memo allege Abrego Garcia lied to officer by not revealing he was coming from Texas On right: DHS Referral Report: "Subject stated he was driving 'three days ago' (11/27/2022) from Houston, TX to Temple Hills, MD (via St Louis, MO)"

EVERYBODY WATCH. ICE IS OUT OF CONTROL. Video of SEIU California’s President David Huerta getting assaulted & arrested during an ICE raid in the warehouse district of Downtown Los Angeles today. He’s an LA native, American citizen and labor leader. Don’t turn away.

BREAKING The President of California’s largest union has been detained during an ICE raid.

On June 6, 1944 the allies launched the D-Day invasion and began the liberation of Europe from fascism. Remember when we used to fight fascism?

“Her lawyer’s in the bathroom.” Trump’s masked ICE Gestapo snatches a woman when her lawyer goes to the bathroom, then forcibly carries her into an elevator after she appears to faint.

Tell me you didn't read the report but also suck at arithmetic, without using any of those words.

The problem, which Mike Johnson knows, is that these officers aren't even identifying themselves as federal agents or law enforcement. Allowing them to hide their identities allows them to hide from accountability. No names, no badges, no warrants, no due process, no hearings, no justice.

Mark Cuban warned Elon about what all of us knew long before this messy divorce started…

Your task today: Call Speaker Thune (202) 224-2321 and ask how many Veterans will be denied food and health services if the Reconciliation Bill passes. Ask for a specific number. #DDay

ICE — or Trump’s Secret Police? Add this to the fact that Trump’s government is apparently compiling a database to build profiles on American citizens.

Wonder how long before Elon decides to work remotely from, say, Moscow.

Damn GOP sure has lots of lying assholes

As I predicted, we are now entering an era where we cannot necessarily trust data coming from the federal govt on things like inflation. Something to watch VERY closely for GDP, unemployment, everything. www.wsj.com/economy/cpi-...

Stephen Miller is privately raging over deportation numbers he deems too low. So he's shifting huge amounts of law enforcement resources away from fighting serious crimes and into his immigration crackdown. If voters knew about this, they'd recoil. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/1961...

Dear Europe. Do you think that Trump is anticipating more US arms sales as a result of Trump's demand for 5% defence spending? We cannot keep relying on the US and should therefore buy EU military tech.

Gobble Gobble

What happens first, Trump has Elon's contracts cut, or Elon sends an army of neckbeards to Trump properties with orders to creep out guests and destroy all toilets?

In case you missed this last night. I'm still dying. "I’m Senator Joni Ernst, except I’m not, because I was too fucking stupid to secure my own campaign domain."

If you want to DESTROY MY SWEATER!!!

Oh my god, they're asking the kids to choose.
