Let's be clear: Trump is thinking of entering a war against Iran without Congressional authorization or legal basis because his birthday parade was a dud and he thinks the war will produce arousing pictures for him to look at on Fox News.

Back in February, Emil Bove claimed that Eric Adams even facing prosecution amounted to election interference in the NYC Mayoral primary. And then, today, Kristi Noem's goons detained Brad Lander DURING the election. www.emptywheel.net/2025/06/17/k...

@bradlander.bsky.social: "I was in a DHS detention for about 3.5 hours... I'm going to sleep at home in my bed tonight, safe with my family. But at Edgardo, who I was trying to accompany, he is in ICE detention. God knows where he's going to sleep tonight. And who knows what state."

Iran has nukes is the 2020s version of Iraq has WMDs in 2000s. Stop letting propaganda slogans convince you to let wealthy elites send our young men and women to war. We need justice and diplomacy, not fear and destruction.

Last week the Senate decided to move forward on the biggest liquidation of public lands in history. Parts of 11 Western states could be put up for sale, all for trophy houses for the ultra-rich. Donate if you can. Lawsuits cost$$! act.biologicaldiversity.org/lwnmsVyQ1U64...

The President of the United States is a desperate, demented, wannabe dictator who is trying to save his presidency by getting into a war that even his own base doesn’t want. The military needs to intervene before he orders a nuke. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

70,000 people marched through Seattle at the No Kings rally. It was loud, it was huge, and it was only a start. While downtown swelled with speeches, ICE tear-gassed protesters in Tukwila. Showing up once isn’t enough. The fight doesn’t end when the march does.

Trump’s pardons of white-collar fraudsters, GOP ripoff artists & unrepentant cop-beaters cheated the victims & taxpayers out of $1.3 BILLION in restitution & fines. Not content to steal from the poor to give to the rich, Trump’s now stealing from victims to give to criminals.

Today’s arrest of @bradlander.bsky.social is just one disturbing example of what ICE does every single day across the country. It’s not interested in law and order—this is about spreading fear. New York City will not stand for it.

🧨 “I became bad business.” Terry Moran just broke his silence after ABC News dropped him for calling Stephen Miller a “world-class hater” and slamming Trump’s addiction to glorification. Now he’s going independent — and pulling no punches.👇

Like the on-again off-again chaos surrounding Trump's tariff policies, his deportation strategies are in chaos Apparently Trump forgot to ask Stephen Miller if it was ok to pause raids in fields, restaurants & hotels So Miller demanded such raids continue www.thedailybeast.com/dhs-flip-flo...

Sen Mike Lee & the silence from Republicans made it clear: decency is in the rearview mirror. After he mocked a political assassination, Ed Shelleby, a senior staffer to Sen Tina Smith, wrote to Lee’s top staffers. @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com read it on-air, and honestly everyone should hear it.

🦋 Terry Moran eviscerates Stephen Miller in post-ABC interview You see him all the time spitting venom & lies into our debate, degrading our public discourse, debasing it & using the power of the White House & what he's been given to grind us down in all that bile. Speaking the way MSM should be 🦋

NYTimes header reads, “What was Terry Moron thinking?” FFS! He was speaking truth to evil power. He was “telling it as it is!” He was saying what every cowardly elected Republican knows is true. “What is ABC thinking?” That should have been the header. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1

If I have this right, the LA Sherriffs Dept started hitting the LA Police with rubber bullets so the LAPD retaliated by tear gassing the Sherriffs! Possibly creating the greatest moment of comity in protest history when the Cali NG, Marines & protesters all started ROFL.

WE HAVE QUESTIONS… This is a kidnapping. No uniform, no badge, civilian car. Who are they? ICE? Sanctioned bounty hunters? Either way, they’re grabbing people without warrants. How often is this happening, and why aren’t more people talking about it? Congress?

The Minnesota shooter apparently used data broker websites to find the home addresses of the people he shot and murdered. Congress has had years to do something about data brokers and they've sided with the tech lobby over and over again. Their inaction is deadly.
