You need "Greg Louganis" to get that far underwater! God love Harry Enten.

If RFJ Jr. truly wants to restore trust, he should let scientists do science—and let ACIP do its vital work protecting American families. Clearly that is NOT the case. time.com/7294477/form...

This is an absolute betrayal of promises made by Congress to protect the people who protected American soldiers. A betrayal by people who think American greatness is based on half-assed military parades rather than being a credible ally to those that risked their lives for America.

Just so I’m clear… Terry Moran got fired, but Mike Lee is still a sitting US senator?

Ya think?? Turns out authoritarianism can be bad for business. www.huffpost.com/entry/fifa-c...

BREAKING: A federal judge reversed National Institutes of Health's terminations of hundreds of critical research grants that were canceled because of their alleged connection to disfavored topics, including diversity, equity, inclusion, and gender identity. This is a major win for public health.

No Kings Day was one of the largest days of protest in US history. From deep red small towns to our largest cities, millions of people turned out to make it clear that the American people will not bow to fascism. #NoKings

“I know enough to know this is not right at all,” Mr. Gavidia said in an interview. “Latinos in general are getting attacked. We’re all getting attacked.” www.nytimes.com/2025/06/15/u...

Utah voters: Are these really your values? Mike Lee is the best you can do?

Hoping no one is paying attention, authorities in Hong Kong are taking advantage of the sheer calamity on the world stage to intensify a democratic crackdown in the semi-autonomous Chinese region. time.com/7294510/hong...

"Not My Type: One Woman vs. a President", @ejeancarroll.bsky.social's new book, launches tomorrow! Let's make it a bestseller :) www.thecut.com/article/e-je...

This historian believes teaching Jewish American history in NYC schools can combat antisemitism @nataliapetrzela.bsky.social www.chalkbeat.org/newyork/2025...

Word for the day: GRIFT

The trauma and heartache these raids are causing our children is literally criminal. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/16/u...

‘No Kings’ Was Biggest Protest in 🇺🇸History: Data Analyst www.thedailybeast.com/data-guru-g-... G Elliot estimated 4-6 million people—so up to 1.7% of the 🇺🇸population) participated in #NoKings protests. Others claim as many as 11 million (up to 3.24%) showed up! Either way biggest US protests ever.

What I will never understand is that he calls himself a God-fearing man who is a member of one of the largest church congregations in America. What a hypocrite!

“No one is coming to save us, and if you’re sick and tired of living like this, the only way out is to show up and stand up to the bullies. In whatever form you’re able to do so.” Truth from @melissaryan.bsky.social www.altrightdelete.news/p/the-storie...

Fascinating analysis of Justice Amy Coney Barrett by @jodikantor.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/video/us/100...

Today we speak with one voice to express our outrage, grief, and condemnation of this horrible attack on public servants. There is no place in our democracy for politically-motivated violence.

Best image of the day:

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."

The anti-abortion movement in America has killed people with guns, bombs and laws. Yesterday, one of its members assassinated a Minnesota politician. We must reject religious extremism and restore reproductive rights for all Americans.

Even the billionaire’s own AI bot fact-checked him after he tried to blame the “far left” for Saturday’s murder of a Democratic Minnesota lawmaker. www.thedailybeast.com/elon-musk-mo...

We should've made a bigger national crisis of someone breaking into Nancy Pelosi's home & trying to kill her husband. But then, we should've made a bigger national crisis about hundreds of someones breaking into the Capitol & trying to steal an election. But then, we should've done lots of things.

As a would-be strongmen flirts with dictatorship & flaunts his ego in the name of patriotism, we must remember that the our founders fought against a king. They built a system where power is earned & accountable, not inherited or seized. @hcrichardson.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

Keep protesting. Keep going, everyone.

What a legacy and what a tragedy 19thnews.org/2025/06/rep-...

Since Trump took office, the White House and GOP have systematically stripped providers and clinics of federal protections—while fueling dangerous anti-abortion myths and misinformation. Via @jessicavalenti.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/jessica/...

Tragically, threats and violent acts have become part of the U.S. political landscape, still shocking but somehow not so surprising -- like school shootings. We're numb. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/14/u...

Just a few days ago, Speaker Mike Johnson, the puritanical pixie twit, refused to rule out arresting Governor Newsom. He added that Newsom should be “tarred and feathered,” a form of torture popularized by vigilantes. He is a reckless hypocrite.

Holy crap! No Kings Philly.

Reporter: I'm going to show you what 20,000 people in the streets of downtown Los Angeles looks like

Raskin: You are not our king, and we are not your subjects. We will never be your subjects. All of us born here on this land are citizens and your executive order is nothing but bad graffiti on the Constitution, and we're going to wash it off today

8 days in June ‘25: - The president federalizes the California National Guard and deploys Marines to LA amid protests against ICE immigration raids - Israel attacks Iran, fueling fears of wider conflict - Democratic lawmaker assassinated - Nationwide protests as Trump throws military parade in DC

Who was MN Rep. Melissa Hortman in the MN Legislature? READ about her consequential leadership in this THREAD by @taniel.bsky.social. Take the time.

Philly showin' up today

It should not be lost on anyone that Minnesota Rep Melissa Hortman, who was shot to death in her home last night by an assassin, was a gun safety advocate who worked tirelessly to protect her constituents from gun violence.

Spot on! #NoKingsProtest

Despicable! “Shoot a couple, the rest will go home,” said meme circulating on Telegram channels of groups affiliated with the far-right Proud Boys. “You just have to impale a few of them…” another local chapter posted. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...
