You want to talk about dangerous ideologies? Start with white Christian nationalism. The most violent movements in American history have all wrapped themselves in God, guns, and the flag.

How much you wanna bet that some of these masked “agents” were among the pardoned? I’m going with “highly likely.”

Q: Your intelligence community says they have no evidence that Iran is building a nuke TRUMP: Then my intelligence community is wrong. Who said that? Q: You director of national intelligence Tulsi Gabbard TRUMP: She's wrong

The orange felon has failed in getting ceasefire agreements and trade deals, but has successfully involved the US in a war. Fraudulent asshole.

BREAKING: Organizers have a date set…👇 "NO KINGS 2.0, 4th of July. 🇺🇸 INDEPENDENCE DAY WITHOUT TYRANNY. 🇺🇸 This 4th of July, we're reclaiming America's promise: Freedom for all… Justice for all… NO KINGS! Are. You. Ready?! 😎✨

Make sure you know the black educator, Dr. Opal Lee - who is responsible for ensuring our calendars mark this day as a national holiday #Juneteenth

The Los Angeles Dodgers said they denied federal immigration officials access to the area around the team’s stadium on Thursday morning. The news comes hours after The Athletic reported the team’s plans to announce assistance to immigrants impacted by recent militarized raids.

For being a Democrat. They are targeting Democrats.

THE VIEW: Do you feel safe as an elected official in this political climate? JASMINE CROCKETT: No. Not at all.

BREAKING: The Organizers of one of the most successful protests in recent US history, the No Kings protest, have just announced the "Good Trouble Lives On" protest on July 17th July 17th marks 5 years since the death of John Lewis, who coined the phrase "Good Trouble" Who's in? 👋

Phang: As many as 48% of battered women said they had delayed leaving a dangerous situation out of concern for their pet’s safety. The Act—was introduced so that shelters could get the funding needed to allow victims to bring their pets with them.. And of course, Republicans want to do away with it

Former President Barack Obama issued a warning about the future of American democracy, while speaking at an event in Connecticut. Obama cautioned that the country is “dangerously close” to normalizing behavior “consistent with autocracies.”

bsky.app/profile/jayl.... #Pro_PMCarney! I said it before he is a walking example of *in quietness and confidence is my strength." Carney doesn't need fanfare and press commentary. He does things with a wink and a nod and keeps on keeping on. So thankful he's Canada's guy.

Instead of sending expensive American jets to bomb a far away country, can’t we just fix our airports. I am sitting on another delayed flight. But hey there’s always money for war. What a joke.

ICE denied U.S. Reps. Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL) and Jonathan Jackson (D-IL) entry into it’s facility in Chicago.

Wild how the Fed chair saying that *entire regions of the United States* won’t be able to get a mortgage in the next decade barely registered as a news event

Four Democratic members of Congress from Illinois, Jesús “Chuy” García, Danny Davis, Delia Ramirez, and Jonathan Jackson, were denied entry to an ICE facility in Broadview, just outside Chicago, despite federal policy allowing them access without prior notice.

What's the difference between Gestapo and ICE? Gestapo showed their faces when they demanded to see your papers.

The Jim Jordan sexual assault scandal is finally on HBO. Will this put the nail in the cross of Jordan's political career? This information was known the last several times he was elected by Ohio, so the chances aren't good.

Given this administration’s actions in the Eric Adams case, it would seem to me that New Yorkers would want a mayor that’s not corruptible. I am not a New Yorker, but if I were, I would not rank Cuomo.

Summer starts on Friday. So.... just sayin' 😆

Out inspecting at the seaside, feels like a fish and chips type of day.

The so-called pro-life lobby, back to litigating in their favorite one-judge division in the Northern District of Texas to get guaranteed results.

Tulsi was iced out of discussions on Iran last week

Good morning bluesky!

Can someone in immigration law explain to me how this is legal?

The PBS funding cuts are a blow to children who need it most. With more options than ever for kids' entertainment, producing research-backed, high-quality, non-advertising content for families—particularly those in low-resource areas—has never been more important.

🚨 Our service members deserve better. Right now in Los Angeles, deployed service members are sleeping on the floor - without cots, clear orders, or even basic support. They signed up to serve during disasters, not to be props for political games. Read more ⤵️ bit.ly/wtb-leadership

A 7-year-old lioness reunites with the man who raised her after she was abandoned as a cub 🦁❤️ He slept beside her outside so she'd grow up as naturally as possible. Now she tackles him with love-hugs, face rubs, pure joy-until they collapse in a pile of trust. 🫶 #WildBond #HeartmeltingNature

The more Americans have heard about the GOP budget bill, the less they support it. But most Americans haven't heard much about it. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

How TF did we go from this to where we are now? Suck poise. Such grace. Kristi Noem has a sitting senator thrown around like a rag doll for asking a question. These people looked like they were going to riot and he allowed them to stay and talked to them. They all applauded. #USDemocracy

History doesn’t forgive cowards. And it doesn’t forget abusers. When the tide turns, put every single Republican official who touched this cruelty on trial.

GOV. ANDY BESHEAR CRITICIZES ICE RAIDS!!

Tucker Carlson, of all people, showing how easy it can be to pop the bullshit bubble if you don’t mind making a liar angry should shame every White House reporter.

When Dems are back in control, there is some houseKeeping that needs to be done at SCOTUS

Immigration judges are alarmed by ICE grabbing immigrants at courthouses. By the way, immigrants can request to appear in court via Zoom. All immigration attorneys should request this. Stop allowing immigrants to be grabbed at courthouses #ImmigrationLaw

BREAKING: SpaceX Starship explodes during static fire test

Somehow someway we need to get this point across to all AMERICANS. The current REP party NO LONGER supports LAW and ORDER. Laws are meant to be broken BY THEM AND ONLY THEM, to service their hideous needs. SHAME THEM TO OBLIVION

If you thought a dead woman should be kept alive as an incubator, now is the time to help. Her family is now burdened w/ astronomical medical bills, immeasurable grief & the heartbreaking battle of a motherless, profoundly sick & suffering newborn. Adriana Smith’s GoFundMe is attached below.

bsky.app/profile/card.... Ah hum😏🤔😡 there is no to say this any other way. So in my typically mouthy way here is the unvarnished truth. 77 millions citizens are your fellow Americans. Or they would have voted for Harris and Waltz. #Concerned_globalcitizens Knew who 47 is so did all of you.

Outrageous: ICE agents arrested a former U.S. Army interpreter who risked his life aiding American troops in Afghanistan, right after his asylum hearing in San Diego. The interpreter legally entered the U.S. after the 2021 withdrawal from Afghanistan.

The new twice a year HIV approved by the FDA today prevention shot costs $14,000 dollars a dose. For profit medicine is evil.

So Noem was in a biohazard lab the day before her allergic reaction? Uncanny timing. 🤔 www.newsweek.com/kristi-noem-...
