The budget bill that the Senate is considering right now would cut Medicaid and Affordable Care Act coverage for 16 MILLION people and raise prices for everyone else, cut SNAP food assistance, and more. No wonder it’s so unpopular. newrepublic.com/post/196715/...

I don't think I've ever felt more like burning it all down than I have while witnessing the elite project to turn Zohran Mamdani and Brad Lander into scary, incompetent monsters while turning an actual incompetent monster, Andrew Cuomo, into a merely complicated fellow who just made an oopsie.

Singer Nezza was told to sing the national anthem in English at the Dodgers game - she sang it in Spanish anyway. The crowd cheered as she finished “The Star-Spangled Banner” en español 🇺🇸🇨🇴🇩🇴 The Spanish version was commissioned by the US govt in 1945 to foster better relations with Latin America.

The House of Representatives narrowly approved legislation Thursday to eliminate the next two years of federal funding for public media outlets, including NPR and PBS. www.npr.org/2025/06/13/n...

Awful news from Minnesota this morning. My thoughts are with the families of Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband, and I pray for the recovery of Sen. John Hoffman and his wife. Political violence is unacceptable.

With Tish James as our Attorney General, New Yorkers have a champion for the rule of law, a fighter who stands up for working people over greedy corporations, and a leader who has taken on Donald Trump and Andrew Cuomo—and won. I am so proud to have her support.

Even Mother Nature is done with Felon47’s bullshit.

Happy Father's Day to all of the fathers, stepfathers, uncles, godfathers, grandfathers, and friends who raise us with pride, joy, and endless laughter. And to Dougie, my best friend and a wonderful dad: Thank you for everything you do for our family. We love you.

Proud Boy arrested for pushing protesters in Florida! Keep it up, law enforcement! Do the right thing!

"How does it feel to get arrested at 87 years old? He said "I'm just beginning!"

MSNBC reporter in gas mask in Los Angeles: I think it was Sheriffs deploying CS gas, tear gas, pepper spray, and flash bang grenades in large numbers. Mounted units pushing against protesters.., every single gathering I saw today was 100% peaceful

It’s Obama appreciation day!! #NoKings

AOC: "They have released chaos in LA by violently raiding & ripping apart peaceful public spaces, and now they are tackling & arresting US sitting members of Congress, while going on the record & lying about what happened.

Happy Obama Appreciation Day

There is no such thing as an overreaction with what has now happened. This is the line in the sand. Every red hat who supports killing Americans is a traitor.

Robert Wolf on Fox News: "I've been in finance for 40 years. This is probably the biggest manufactured crisis I've seen with a bunch of unforced errors. The execution of 'liberation day' was pathetic."

I don't think it gets more Second Gilded Age than this.

🔥 @ninajankowicz.com to the European Parliament: "Before I describe the details of Russia's recent online influence campaigns, I would like to call upon you to stand firm against another autocracy: The United States of America."

Impeach, Remove, Hands Off! 🇺🇲 April 19th 50501 #protest #handsoff #Indivisible #nokings

Van Hollen: I should also just say, I mentioned the fake margarita, they actually wanted to have the meeting by the side of the pool in the hotel. They want to create this appearance that life was just lovely for Kilmar. Which of course is a big, fat lie.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

Unclench your jaw. Drop your shoulders. Say something kind to yourself. Share your kind thought below.

Meiselas: A 20-year-old American citizen was being held by ICE. Protests happened all day, and as public pressure mounted… This guy is an American citizen. But the public pressure was so intense that the Trump regime folded. He was released

RFK Jr. says there are no autistic poets, so we interviewed one. Hear from Elizabeth McClellan, @popelizbet.bsky.social, an award-winning poet, attorney, and legal educator based in Memphis, Tennessee.

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring *all* removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

Pro-life until birth...The Hypocrisy!🤔

WE MUST 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

The government plans to call Mark Zuckerberg and Sheryl Sandberg to the witness stand. The trial is expected to run nearly two months in a federal courtroom in Washington.

Disappearing people without any due process is fascism — full stop. I’m sick to my stomach and we all should be.

Trump is a clear example of the dangers of authoritarianism. He's trying to use his executive power to undermine the Constitution and impose his own will on the American people. Stop him. We have the means. And the right. Where is our Congress? #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Booker: "This isn't just about Mr. Garcia. This is about every American understanding that this president is making an assault on the due process rights that are afforded to people in our country ... you cannot disappear people off American streets."

Shared by the daughter of MLK a while back- “Some Wise Advice Circulating: 1. Use his name sparingly so as not to detract from the issues. I believe that everyone, regardless of their beliefs, deserves the dignity of being called by their name. However, this is a strategic tactic.
