2.977 people died on 9/11. The daily quote for ICE is 3000. I think putting it in terms like that puts it into perspective. They want one 9/11 every day.

Baldwin: I remember my cross-examination of Secretary Kennedy from HHS, and he said, “We will have radical transparency.” But what they’ve actually had is radical opaqueness. They never answer a letter. They never answer a question. It’s one of the ways that democracy begins to degrade—

Thousands of people lined up at the Minnesota Capitol to pay tribute to slain lawmaker Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark. Between the caskets was an urn containing the ashes of the family’s golden retriever, Gilbert.

Bombs 3 nuclear sites and then says “Now is the time for peace”? This is an escalation that will lead to more death. Congress must reconvene immediately to stop the President from pushing us into war.

Also… I personally can’t wait for these people to be witnesses, looking up to the top Dem, an IMMIGRANT Congressman. Not to mention, he’s a great friend. Also has loads of respect from & for our caucus. He’s creative as hell & will bring the energy we need on this committee.

They do this cause they know the bill is terrible for their states & districts. So they post a tweet opposing it, then fold right after. That way, come election time, they can claim they “fought it.” 99% of the time, that fight was complete BS.

Floating around with mum!

Pete Hegseth is now threatening to send the Marines into Los Angeles. Make no mistake: this is a declaration of war against the United States.

Trump nearly falls flat on his face while struggling to walk up the steps to Air Force One today

Newsom: Trump completely lied. He said in a tweet everything is safe. Is that the case Mr. Trump? It’s his mess, we’re trying to clean up.

“Both sides are bad” Sir one side is stomping on unarmed people with horses…

California AG Bonta: I, in partnership with Governor Gavin Newsom, are suing President Trump and asking the court to set aside the president's unlawful action federalizing the California National Guard.

Bonta: We brought a lawsuit today on behalf of the governor and the State of California, challenging as unlawful the president’s federalization of the National Guard.. The authority he relies on does not permit him to unilaterally call in the National Guard.

UPDATE: David Huerta was just released from custody!

FEMA chief doesn't know what hurricane season is, so good luck everyone! Maybe try praying harder. 🤷‍♂️ My column on the Trump administration's era of unqualified boobs: www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

FEMA, under its wholly unqualified Trump-appointed knucklehead, has no disaster-response plan for hurricane season. They may as well just tell people who live near the water to lash themselves to the nearest street lamp and pray really hard. www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

I haven't laughed this hard in a minute. The "no" at the end is an absolute chef's kiss.

I'll say this: Harvey Milk's name, decades upon decades from now, will still be revered in the pages of history and the hearts of students of civil rights. Pete Hegseth's name, on the other hand, will prompt only one response: "Who the fuck was that?" www.military.com/daily-news/2...

Police reform and civil-rights activists joined thousands of people on Sunday to mark the fifth anniversary of George Floyd's murder and decry the Trump administration for actions they say set their efforts back decades.

The House just passed the bill to fund Trump's second-term agenda -- and "it is a piece of garbage," says fmr. Democratic Senator Jon Tester. He calls it "anti-farmer" and warns that it will lead to "an even bigger mass exodus" out of rural America. #Velshi

G⭕P Anti-farmer Rural areas lost Farmers leave It's because the G⭕P don't care about farmers, voters or anyone else. Only their income and power. #Voices4Victory

#ResistanceUnited #ProudBlue #DemVoice1 @kamalaharris.com was in Australia to attend AREC2025. It’s great to see that she was treated respectfully there. 🙏 listen to her. I like someone who is humble and learns from others as a leader. x.com/attyharris/s...

Trump clearly doesn’t understand what he signs, but it would be funny if a reporter asked him about RCP8.5. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

Nēnē is the world’s rarest goose, endemic to the Hawaiian Islands, who nearly went extinct in the mid-20th century. 🪶 In Hawaiʻi, we rarely see them and are not allowed to approach them. In central London, however, they’re just wandering around and no one notices. 🤷🏻‍♂️ 📷: @helenczerski.bsky.social

Hard to believe they’re talking about the same event.

Psychopath. Also, commercial fishing operations kill at least 300,000 whales and dolphins annually.

When creation slaps your creation myths down!

A good human. Happy birthday!

Lawrence usually gets straight to the point.

Good idea!

Yes! All labor is skilled labor.
