NEW: Last weekend, over 4 million people participated in No Kings rallies nationwide, including a 102-year-old Holocaust survivor in New York who warned that "Trump is trying to imitate Hitler." www.democracydocket.com/opinion/a-ho...

It looks like America first just means whatever Bibi wants—Trump saw the success of the Israeli operation and jumped to take some credit for it. And, by saying “we” Trump implies that the United States is already in this war.

Today I’m leading 152 House Democrats in challenging Trump's devastating cuts to life-saving NIH research grants. Congress—not Trump—controls federal spending. Trump must do his job, “faithfully execute” the laws and stop violating the Constitution to undercut public health.

C-SPAN caller to Tapper: "When are you going to examine what's going on with Trump? ... this president has been pure chaos, which indicates to me that there is something wrong with him. We will never get a straight answer on his medical exam, and yet you have gone after Joe Biden with a vengeance."

Chobani Chief Executive Hamdi Ulukaya said that the Trump administration’s stepped-up immigration enforcement poses risks to the food supply chain. “We need immigration and we need workers for our food system to work.”

I wrote this four days ago. Today, they arrested the NYC Comptroller.

💔These parents waited all day, hoping against hope. Their son's body was found in the rubble. He didn't survive. My heart breaks for these mom and dad. Russia killed their child. Deepest condolences.

ICE agents are out here manhandling elected officials—yet again. They arrested NYC Comptroller Brad Lander for asking if they had a warrant—which is his constitutional right. (1/2)

Just days ago, Brad Lander called me to interpret for an Arabic-speaking asylee whose case was approved, yet ICE was still harassing him inside the building. Brad personally escorted him out to safety. He does this kind of work quietly, every day.

I am not afraid of Donald Trump. I am not afraid of Tom Homan. I will stand up for the people of Illinois.

Moulton: It turns out the U.S. Army is not great at doing Soviet-style or North Korean-style parades, because that’s not what people sign up to do… Imagine how much veteran housing you could build for $40 million. You could help a lot of vets with that kind of money. And this parade helped nobody.

However unsure we may be about what the ultimate outcome will be, we may rest morally certain that Donald Trump has absolutely no idea what he’s doing from one moment to the next. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/17/u...

New Economist/YouGov data. Trump's approval has dropped from -4 to -13 in the last two weeks, and it's clear now has 2024 coalition is unraveling. Dude is in a degraded place. More here - www.hopiumchronicles.com/p/dropped-pa...

Good job the “no more foreign wars” guy won the election.

🚨🚨 This is pure evil and heinous war crimes committed by the #russian war machine whilst the Western partners is looking passively on the sides. #Ukraine needs proper #airsupport and it is time for Europe/NATO to get involved on the ground with such support.

The Trump regime is deliberately deploying ICE agents at immigration hearings so they can more easily detain migrants. Armed, masked men abducting people from courthouses —and arresting those who ask why — is the stuff fascism is made of.

Would you look at that.

In a hundred years or more, people will wonder what Ukrainians felt and did under heavy attacks - and, more importantly, what the world did to help us. I wrote a letter. Exclusive for supporters. Indifference, Care and Why No Sunday Letter This Week. www.patreon.com/posts/life-b...

I try to limit my news intake to stay (relatively) sane, but subscribe to Aaron's newsletter. I recommend it to anyone who is interested in good journalism and analysis.

An Afghan man who worked as a translator for the U.S. military during the war was detained by ICE after showing up for a hearing inside of a federal courthouse in San Diego, his attorney says. He fears that if he returns to Afghanistan, he would be tortured or even killed, @nbcsandiego.com reports.

The Trump Admin wants to bring back asbestos! You can’t make this shit up. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/16/u...

Exactly how much money do these countries need to invest in Trump coins to satiate "security or diplomatic concerns"?

Does he know that the UK left the EU more than 5 years ago?

WATCH: Fired Ex-ABC journalist Terry Moran stands ten toes down on what he said about Stephen Miller’s hateful heart🖤when talking to @thebulwark.com’s @timmiller.bsky.social (no relation) Be truthful not neutral is our motto too, Terry 👊🏼 Full: terrymoran.substack.com/p/live-inter...

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.

Yesterday, millions of us reasserted the “We” in "We the people." We gained strength from our solidarity. We celebrated our numbers and our power. We will be steadfast. We will not cower to a dictator. We will win.

If Noem doesn’t know who the California senator is, what else doesn’t she know?

In a Gangster State, the dear leader wastes other people's money on military parades to broadcast his fake strength, attacks the legislative branch and destroys programs that benefit the people.

🔥🔥🔥

Los Angeles. Just wow.

Trump’s provocations have turned Angelenos into pedestrians

Despite warnings from the law enforcement not to attend today’s No Kings rally after this mornings shooting of Minnesota lawmakers with the killer on the lose, the No Kings Rally is happening at the Minnesota State Capitol in St. Paul.

"You do see a country where there's an element of unraveling" - @timmiller.bsky.social Watch his response to the horrific targeted assassination of two lawmakers in Minnesota

Look at downtown LA right now

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that current communication between the US and Russia resembles a “warm conversation" Such a tone only reinforces the Russian ruler’s confidence, as Vladimir Putin does not want peace, he added euromaidanpress.com/2025/06/14/r...

To mobilize the National Guard, Trump cited 10 U.S.C. 12406, which authorizes the president to do so when the U.S. faces foreign invasion or rebellion or when he cannot otherwise execute the laws. This is NOT such an occasion. So today’s coup is manifestly illegal and must be stopped judicially.

President Zelenskyy in an interview with Newsmax: "Trump can stop him [Putin].For that to happen,Putin must lose money.Only by losing money will he be unable to grow his army or increase military spending.That will lead to internal problems.That is a fact.To achieve this,sanctions must be imposed."
