When warnings of Insectageddon were issued a few years ago, there was widespread denial. Less so now. It's devastating. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

WTF❗️

The Trump administration announced plans to eliminate federal protections for millions of acres of Alaskan wilderness, opening the door to drilling and mining in some of the nation’s last untouched landscapes.

"Reducing the operating budget by $900 million, as the Trump administration wants to do, would require closing 350 of the 433 parks, monuments, historic sites and other locations overseen by the Park Service..." (gift link) www.nytimes.com/2025/06/01/o...

The Department of Justice no longer represents the best interests of the American people. Under Bondi, it has been transformed into little more than a cog in the authoritarian machine doing Donald Trump’s bidding. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/the-...

Interested in attending Harvard??.

Phang: These “radical left” judges? These are judges that you had a hand in appointing—or they were appointed under Republican administrations. So how very convenient that when you don’t get your way, suddenly these are all radical left judges. He is just an intellectually lazy asshole.

"If Crater Lake were fully staffed this summer, it would have eight park rangers, said a current park employee who spoke on the condition of anonymity for fear of retaliation. Instead, it has three...." www.washingtonpost.com/climate-envi...

Sign of the day…

“There are only two kinds of society in which armed agents of the government routinely conceal their identities: (1) Lawless failed states… (2) Authoritarian states… Stable democracies do not allow agents of the state to operate under cover of concealment.” www.thebulwark.com/p/the-secret...

A drug addict usurped congressional power, and unilaterally gutted US soft power. Members of the administration knew about, and were disturbed by, his drug use (WSJ). Isn’t this a cover-up?

Joni Ernst, at her town hall last night. When the crowd said people will die due to Medicaid and SNAP cuts, she said: "well we all are going to die." 🫠🫠🫠🫠

The Dept. of Justice has filed its first voter suppression lawsuit aimed at disenfranchising voters. This is a critical juncture for democracy. Paige and I discuss the implications and how it echoes claims made by failed state Supreme Court candidate Jefferson Griffin. youtu.be/8XEW-Ga428M

Phang: If you see claims that those convictions have been overturned on appeal — it’s bullshit. They have not been overturned on appeal. I have no idea—strike that—I have every idea where that comes from. It comes from stupid, far-right people who don’t know how to read and don’t know the law.

Harvard president receives standing ovation during commencement.

Oklahoma Republicans installed a new social studies curriculum that will require all of the state's public school students to be taught conspiracy theories about the 2020 election. So a group of parents is using a law passed by Oklahoma Republicans in 2024 to opt their kids out.

Thanks to Trump's latest flurry of pardons, he's now pardoned most of the Republican congressmen convicted of felonies in the 21st century. The new total is nine — and counting. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x convicted felon & adjudicated rapist Trump did.

NEW: The US government has collected DNA samples from 133,000+ migrant children and teenagers and uploaded them into CODIS, a national criminal database originally built for convicted sex offenders and violent criminals, according to documents reviewed by WIRED.

I’m starting my annual walk across Connecticut today! Beginning in the very northwest corner of the state - Salisbury. I will talk to hundreds of people over the next few days about what they want (and don’t want!) from their elected leaders. My favorite week of the year!

South Carolina, it's time for dignity to unseat corruption and take its rightful seat for you in our US Senate.

I'm Dr. Annie Andrews. I’m a pediatrician, not a politician. But either way I know how to handle people who are full of sh*t. Today I am announcing my campaign for US Senate to replace Lindsey Graham. Share this if you're with me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8wM...

Obviously, Tapper is getting paid to distract from the real truth of who is the demented one. Every accusation of Biden is a Republican confession. www.threads.com/@rawstorymed...

The tariffs were illegal all along. Not a particularly close call if you look at the law.

The call is coming from inside the house. Our own government is our greatest danger. www.statnews.com/2025/05/28/m...

DUPE AND SCOOP. Katie Phang reports on how Trump’s ICE is now dismissing cases so they can arrest and deport without due process.
