NEW: The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has granted an administrative stay of Judge Breyer’s order — a move that puts the order on pause, allowing continued deployment of the national guard. Two Trump judges and one Biden judge on the panel.

Hey. I'm gonna be blunt. If you're queer, anywhere even vaguely close to the Boston area, and you have space to house me, my partner, and our cat, please reach out. We urgently need a place to stay ASAP.

This is the unpermitted ICE facility where Mayor Baraka was arrested. The conditions are reportedly horrible; overcrowding, limited food, scalding showers, and family visits cancelled with no warning. This is one result of ICE caring more about quotas than detention conditions.

Trump’s go-to line about every foreign policy crisis and war - from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, to October 7th, to the Israel’s devastation of Gaza - was “It would never have happened if I was president.” Welp.

"To Mr. Cuomo, I've never had to resign in disgrace. I've never cut Medicaid. I have never stolen hundreds of millions of dollars from the MTA. I have never hounded the thirteen women who credibly accused me of sexual harassment. I have never sued for their gynecological records." - Zohran just now.

As I have written many times, Hollywood is the most ruthless center of American capitalism you can imagine, where every TV show is a startup with a burn rate in the millions per week and SIX WEEKS to prove it can succeed. Until private equity moved in to pillage it, it was cold-bloodedly pragmatic.

Another flyer has appeared! Someone in Chicago is making protest flyers that mimic the design of handbills that contractors put on people’s garages. Many contractors are undocumented so they will see these. This showed up on my block today. I haven’t had time to see if it has been posted more widely

It is actually nuts that even when the NYC political establishment was presented with a broad field of talented candidates w/ many ideas, in a time of generational change & anti-corruption, they STILL chose to line up behind scandal-ridden Andrew Cuomo. It’s cowardice.

The idea that Secret Service agents don’t know all the senators on sight alone is absurd. And yes, you can hear him clearly identify himself in the recording. Just nonsense. And this is why the Trump admin likes making “pretty” white women its spokespeople— to play the scared victim

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.”

And if you're worried about violence this weekend, imagine how much worse it'll be if there's no immediate action to hold these assholes accountable. If they get away with roughing up a senator at a press conference, then protesters will be killed. It's a straight line.

I never knew the story of how the actual heist was planned and pulled off -- this is incredible also lol forever at one of the activists explaining to his kids decades later, “If you’re a white man in a suit, you can get away with anything”

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

I think it’s important to notice why so many Americans believe the criminal group exists: yes the media but also two political parties that kept talking about this criminal imaginary. Two. That appeal to Liz Cheney moderates shit is damaging.

People keep wanting to find Democratic Joe Rogan but honestly just fund a national paper that's not petrified to tell the truth at this point. You could spin that up next week and be making money by August.

What happened here is an example of the Trump administration “de-documenting” people. His workers all had work permits; it seems they were Nicaraguans who entered through CHNV parole. But the Trump admin stripped them of their status then rounded them up, making even his supporter mad.

Some Stellantis vehicles have a fail safe mode that automatically applies the throttle (to 50 MPH) and the driver is expected to control the car with the brake. And there's no dash warning and nothing on this "drive by brake" system in the owner's manual. www.edmunds.com/car-news/202...

I was, of course, pleased to sign this letter from a wide range of esteemed Supreme Court reporters calling on the justices to live-stream audio of opinion announcements. There is no reason this audio should be withheld for months, as the court does now. www.scotusblog.com/2025/06/repo...

This is pretty much the ne plus ultra of how Republicans deal with antisemitism - propose a bill to "fight antisemitism" so broad in prohibiting teachers from even quoting antisemitic materials in proper educational context that Holocaust educators say it would make Holocaust education impossible.
