EPIC response.

Kudos to @padilla.senate.gov for this pushback. But the dynamic he points out is even more stark. At this point there's a propaganda effort to deny that raids in your community sucks.

“Friends and former colleagues interviewed by AP described Boelter as a devout Christian who attended an evangelical church and went to campaign rallies for President Donald Trump” apnews.com/article/minn...

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 ✊
