Just reread this brilliant @vanityfair.com piece on Stephen and Katie Miller. It remains the best window into their vile souls www.vanityfair.com/news/2020/08...

Yup.

Aaaaand I think we're done here #TACO

You hate to see it... A bunch of artists and orchestras have dumped the Kennedy Center and are moving performances to Strathmore, Sixth & I, etc. bethesdamagazine.com/2025/05/28/w...

Vladimir Putin is a sworn enemy of the United States. Appeasement was never going to work. Why is that so difficult to understand?

Word has it that the Senate doesn't like the cuts to SNAP. But there is no mention of its disapproval of Medicaid cuts; No disapproval on dismantling of judiciary enforcement; No disapproval on the taxes on the poor...this is a distraction from the other horrible line items they really want to pass.

Prime Minister Mark Carney says Canada is looking to join major European military buildup by July 1 'By Canada Day we'd like to see something concrete there,' PM tells Power & Politics #Canada #cdnpoli #RearmEurope #Military www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Scoop: Nancy Mace's fmr staff tell me they were assigned to create burner accounts to bolster their boss online. “We were congressional staff, and there were actual things we could be doing to help the constituents," one said. 1/ www.wired.com/story/nancy-...

The cruelty is the point.

What is Fox pretending to be outraged about tonight?

Wonder how many people Trump is negotiating foreign policy and tariffs with, that have children and other relatives going to Harvard and other Ivy League schools ?

Happy Saturday 🌞......

gkates123 (on threads) Marc Elias, with his thoughts on CNN's never-ending promotion of Tapper's book: "Perhaps CNN is figuring out why no one is watching CNN. It's just one big informercial occasionally interrupted by Scott Jennings lying."

BREAKING: Sens. DURBIN, MURKOWSKI reintroduce bill to bolster Crime Victims Fund, a lifeline for survivors of violent crime.

In the past week, Twitter has gone down more times than in the past few months. Leon should not be anywhere near any project involving airplanes.

On May 23, 1962, my father spoke at Dartmouth about the urgent need for a moral awakening and strong laws to protect civil rights. I reflect on his call to action today. We can't afford to wait for hearts to change or for others to step up. We have to be the ones to lead.

⚡️Russia's upgraded ballistic missiles harder to intercept by Patriots, Air Force says. "It complicates the interception, but doesn’t make it impossible," Ukraine's Air Force spokesperson Yurii Ihnat said. "I think our partners are already working to improve the system's capabilities."

If you need a little hope this morning

RFKJr. is not a doctor or a scientist, he’s a batshit conspiracy theorist. Pretends to care about children’s health as he undermines access to lifesaving vaccines and ignores the #1 cause of death for children in the US (GUNS) as part an admin hellbent on leaving the planet uninhabitable for future.

But don’t let facts get in the way.

I hope legacy media covers the connection between last night's memecoin dinner and this morning's social media tariff threats. He's manipulating the stock market.

You know what to do

I Do NOT APPROVE

“It’s a bit foolish to think that we voted for our own demise” says a Nebraska Farmer who cannot run her farm without cheap illegal immigrant labour and they cannot find people to work now because many of the immigrants left the state afraid of ICE and now they are going bankrupt 🤔 GOOD FOR THEM 💁🏽‍♂️

Outraged and heartbroken by the news of two young people killed last night in DC in a targeted act of antisemitic violence. This is the opposite of advancing justice and peace - it only furthers the violence, pain, and loss - and such hatred must be firmly rejected by all.

The current budget bill is an atrocity and out-of-touch leaders like Chuck Schumer laid the groundwork by voting for the CR. Appeasement and complicity do not work. When you bend the knee, they’ll break your leg.

The GOP budget bill is 1,116 pages long but it boils down to this one simple fact: Republicans are facilitating a massive transfer of wealth to the richest Americans while making cuts that would rip away healthcare and food from millions of people. It's Robin Hood in reverse.

Trump is president of Crazytown & he happens to also be president of the USA. There's no white genocide occurring n South Africa. This is a bogus conspiracy theory spread by white nationalists. It's part of Trump's war on woke and his desire to Make America White Again. www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...

Here we go again! Trump ambushed South Africa’s president with propaganda videos alleging “genocide” against white Afrikaners, during an official White House meeting. Then he brought up the $400 million Qatari “gift.” Trump is not well.

The Jake Tapper “Biden was old” fiasco should remind you why we need independent media that knows what the important stories are amid this cruel national crisis. I will not be distracted or stop saying what I think. I hope you’ll join us and subscribe (free or paid). www.americaamerica.news

A new analysis estimates the Trump/GOP budget's rollback of clean energy tax credits will eliminate nearly 830,000 jobs by 2030 and raise energy prices by 50% by 2035.  Just another way the "big beautiful bill" will make the economy worse and your life more expensive.

While I appreciate the "lock him up" and "impeach him" sentiments (and I'm with you), if Mueller, Garland, and impeachment taught us anything, its that 1) SCOTUS is corrupt and 2) We have to do this ourselves. As I've been saying for nearly 8 years: it's up to us. Always has been.

No one experiencing the tragedy of a miscarriage should be arrested, much less abandoned in jail for 5 months with a $100k bond. But that’s exactly what happened to Mallori Patrice Strait in Texas. Women, particularly women of color, in this country are no longer allowed dignity even in extreme loss

When he showed up to an immigration meeting in Memphis, Kasper Eriksen thought he was on the verge of becoming a citizen. Then ICE arrested the Mississippi father of four, not even giving him a chance to say goodbye to his wife, whisking him away to a prison. @nickjudin.bsky.social reports:

Federal judge dresses down Alina Habba: "Your role is not to secure convictions at all costs, nor to satisfy public clamor, nor to advance political agendas. Your allegiance is to the impartial application of the law, to the pursuit of truth and to the upholding of due process for all."

The "party of the working class," everyone.

Neguse was grilling Jim Jordan so hard this morning over language in the reconciliation bill to restrict federal judges' ability to enforce court penalties that Jordan had to consult with his lawyers

#ResistanceEarth #BlueEarth #Voices4Victory In an Energy Subcommittee hearing today, Lee Zeldin said the ENERGY STAR program could be taken over by a private entity. Wrong, Lee. EPA has a statutory obligation to run the program, which saves consumers and businesses 1,000 times more than it costs.

BREAKING: ICE and private prison contractor GEO Group are refusing to allow Mahmoud Khalil to hold his newborn son for the first time, even after his wife flew them over 1,000 miles to visit. We just asked a federal court to order ICE to grant Mahmoud's request for a contact visit with his family.
