I would love to see a 50-state campaign to pass free school lunch and anti-gun measures in tribute.

A proper headline. Take note, @washingtonpost.com

Bizarrely, it appears that Trump’s nominee to lead the FAA has been lying about holding a commercial pilot license www.politico.com/news/2025/06... #aviation

The most consequential Speaker in state history.

Karen Bass: "There is no comparison [with the 1992 riots]. And unfortunately that is what is being pushed, as though the city is in chaos, there's civil unrest everywhere. For most Angelenos, they're like, 'What city are they describing?' They are definitely not describing Los Angeles."

A senator celebrating the murder of political opponents should be expelled. Not debated. Not excused. Expelled.

The US Army can march in unison. Synchronized. I don’t think they wanted to…

spoken like a diehard White Sox fan

It turns out that the very best No Kings Day protest yesterday was the one staged by the United States Armed Forces in Washington—because if you've seen any of the military experts on social media or cable news today you know that their poor marching was deliberate and intended as an insult to Trump

www.threads.com/@aflcio/post... President Trump’s birthday military parade is estimated to cost $45 MILLION. Here’s a list of a few ideas of what they could be doing with that money instead: 🧵

What we learned yesterday. The Times They Are a-Changin'

LMFAO 😂 it’s zero people for the 🤡 clown show.

Padilla on Noem: "How does the cabinet secretary not know the senator from California when she steps foot into Los Angeles? She came through the Senate for confirmation."

Schrödinger's parade - the crowd was both sparse and dense.

Ohio lawmakers are once again ambushing the citizen-initiative process. SB 153 is about power -- and who gets to wield it. The answer must remain: the people. We oppose this attack on direct democracy. www.cleveland.com/ne...

Concerning.

True story bro.

This is so appropriate!

This 1945 report to Mayor LaGuardia has been key to understanding how Jackie Robinson came to integrate baseball. The original typescript has today been added to the New York State Library online (bit.ly/443VlTS). See also ourgame.mlblogs.com/report-of-th....

Cleveland Municipal Stadium, July 9, 1948, 42-year old rookie Satchel Paige making his MLB debut for the Indians in the 5th inning vs St Louis Browns. Satch went 6 - 1 with 3 complete games and 2 shutouts. A poignant image that stirs many emotions.

Minnesota’s flags will fly at half staff in honor and remembrance of Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman. She woke up every morning determined to make Minnesota a better place, and she will be greatly missed.

We may make the squeaking our ringtone

Newsom’s social media team is killing it. (This isn’t an old picture. It’s from right now. I asked.) 😂😂😂😂

Trump looks like an utter jackass. Marching soldiers like toys when a real war is going on. Attacking peaceful, productive Americans and dehumanizing them. Now an evil political assassination. He cannot and will not perform his job. Those who voted for him should forever hang their heads in shame.

Massive #NoKings march in New York City!

Yesssssss… I love this 🙌🏼

Chicago showed the 🤬 up ✊

🤣🤣🤣 #TrumpParade #NoKings

We should make June 14th No Kings Day permanently.

Nobody is rioting. Nobody is breaking any laws. These are cops in my city of Las Vegas just assaulting and arresting anyone on Fremont Street who looks at them. This is fascism.

Vid on Reddit juxtaposes Chinese military parades of massed sharply dressed soldiers high stepping in perfect unison with US GIs strolling along in rumpled fatigues. I prefer the latter, frankly, but I'm sure Trump wanted the former for his 250th birthday celebration. www.reddit.com/r/interestin...
