And who they didn't approve of

Today I #WearOrange to honor the survivors of gun violence and remember those we have lost. Follow @everytown.bsky.social & @giffords.org to take a stand against an issue our leaders continue to do nothing about.

Your bill is going to cut coverage for 11 million Americans and it’ll still cost more than universal healthcare. Healthcare is a human right, you absolute ghouls.

Pride is a celebration. Pride is also a powerful statement about courage, community, and determination. We honor the trailblazers who came before us, join arms with those leading the fight for equality today, and empower the next generation to live boldly, freely, and with joy.

"The city of Portland, Emanuel Legacy Medical Center, and Prosper Portland conspired to destroy a previously thriving Black neighborhood. The civil rights suit filed in U.S. District Court described how the three organizations destroyed the homes and businesses of the descendants."

🚨NEW: @cbsnews.com reports ICE is arresting people who can't even legally be deported and holding them without enough food or water in a federal building BASEMENT in Los Angeles. Families dutifully attending check-ins with ICE are being arrested and held for days, forced to sleep on the floor.

I save every episode of Next Comes What with Andrea Pitzer - her research and focus on concentration camps and the regimes that established them is SO IMPORTANT NOW MORE THAN EVER podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/n...

I’m so excited to return to The Late Show w/ Stephen Colbert! I did such a great job last time, they asked me back a mere 8 years later. #TheLifeOfChuck

Sukhjot Singh "This fierce peregrine mom was patrolling her territory to provide a safe airspace for her newly fledged babies. I thought she was going to attack a few gulls that flew close, but she decided to take a hard right and turn around, offering a rare face-to-face moment with the camera."

BREAKING: Judge Boasberg GRANTS class certification for the people held at CECOT and gives the government ONE WEEK to explain how they're going to facilitate due process for EVERYONE sent there under the Alien Enemies Act. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Raygun is on it 😂

Love this. Good people stepping up when the system fails our kids.

Raise your hand if you’re not even a meteorologist and you still know there’s a hurricane season.

58 years ago today, The Beatles released Sgt. Pepper. 5 months later, The Carol Burnett Show did a tribute with Carol, Gwen Verdon, Bobbie Gentry and Phyllis Diller.

I realize not many people saw this response to Trump's attack on Leonard Leo, reported by @joshgerstein.bsky.social www.politico.com/news/2025/05...

Yay!

Happy Pride Month 2025 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ Be gay do crow stuff #pridemonth #pridecrows

I just threw up in my mouth a little 🤮

Chris Murphy on Joni Ernst: "I think everybody in that audience knows they're going to die, they would just rather die in old age at 85 or 90 instead of dying at 40. And the reality is that when you lose your healthcare, you are much more at risk of early death."

“Major Wheeler” Honeysuckle - smells divine

White folks didn't read Project 2025, didn't heed any of the warnings, now we are here, and it's only going to get worse. Ignorance is NOT a valid excuse. They did vote for all of this, he did say he was going to do all of this. They get no pass, they get no sympathy.

Dave Ramsey was asked about his rental holdings...he has over 20. He said he is "managing money for God." He's a grifter with a sense of entitlement and no idea how the real world works.

Last year, we became the first state to build and open three veterans homes simultaneously.   I just signed a bill that fully funds the staffing and operations of these homes well into the future. I’m proud of Minnesota’s enduring commitment to better serve those who served us.

Be there!

Next time someone in Congress glibly dismisses your need for healthcare, remember that they have some of the best healthcare in the country. And it was paid for by YOU.

Oh, crap.
