There’s no such thing as common ground with racists, misogynists, and fascists. Health care for all. Love = love. My body my choice. Schools aren’t churches. Never stop fighting the good fight. Yes on the Oxford comma. There should be more dancing here.

🧵💉Should pregnant people get COVID-19 vaccine? 🤰 TL;DR: YES. Pregnant people, especially those with certain conditions are at increased risk of severe COVID, miscarriage, and pre-term labor. Babies < 6mo also have increased risk of severe COVID. Vaccination protects mom and baby More below 👇

😅🤣

this is gold 🤣. the political clarity is unmatched. i need the daily digest.

Prime Minister Carney just posted a video of him greeting leaders at the G7. Guess who he excluded...😂

LAPD shoves an unhoused woman to the ground so hard her skull cracks open and she’s knocked unconscious. They then carry her to the curb, prop her up and abandon her. Witnesses took her to the ER.

Please read and share this statement from Sophie and Colin Hortman, children of Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark. (via WCCO reporter Caroline Cummings on X)

Psychopathic

South LA runs ICE off ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼✊🏻

Trump rolls into the G7 summit complaining about how mean they are to Putin, trashes America on foreign soil, confused the EU with the UK, dropped papers on the ground, trashed Tucker Carlson, accomplished nothing, then bailed early to escalate a war. MAGA!

NEW: The CBP confirmed to @404media.co that it has been flying Predator drones over LA amid the protests. These Predator B drones are military-caliber UAVs used for aerial reconnaissance that can be armed. It further breaks the seal on federal involvement in civilian matters. More here:

NEW: The American Bar Association is suing Trump over his attacks on law firms. Here's a gift link for more info: wapo.st/4le2DLL

Trump realizes people are turning on him, which means he will get more desperate, aggressive, extreme, and violent. These are all actions of a weak regime and weak man.

Tucker Carlson says Fox is a propaganda network that manipulates their mostly elderly audience.

We won’t amplify it, but the president posting that Dems are “sick of mind” and “hate our country” immediately after 2 Dem lawmakers and their spouses were shot in their homes is the opposite of leadership. Gas on the fire.

Last year, Kroger's CEO raked in $15.4 million — 457x more than its typical employee. Kroger also announced $7.5 billion in stock buybacks. I don't want to hear that Kroger can't afford to treat its employees fairly. Solidarity to these workers.

🚨MAJOR BREAKING: The Canada PM had enough of Trump blabbering bullshit and just cut short the press conference. I don’t blame him.

Minnesota Star Tribune debunks each of the lies and conspiracies posted on social media from Mike Lee, Elon Musk, and all the other usual suspects who do this EVERY time. www.startribune.com/fact-check-d...

Singer Nezza was told to sing the national anthem in English at the Dodgers game - she sang it in Spanish anyway. The crowd cheered as she finished “The Star-Spangled Banner” en español 🇺🇸🇨🇴🇩🇴 The Spanish version was commissioned by the US govt in 1945 to foster better relations with Latin America.

People 💙Listen up because this had to be said!! Marco Rubio , you’re a piece of trash 👏🏽👏🏽 #DemVoice1 #DemsUnited #ProudBlue

We may make the squeaking our ringtone

BREAKING: A federal judge in Massachusetts (the Reagan-appointed William Young) has declared the Trump administration's cuts to NIH grants — ostensibly over Trump's EOs on gender ideology and DEI — are "illegal" and "void." He's ordering many grants restored.

At the G7 summit, Mark Carney interrupted Trump during a press conference to redirect the discussion towards the meeting’s agenda. Carney’s intervention aimed to prevent the conversation from spiraling out of control, as it had during their previous meeting. www.rawstory.com/trump-canada...

This is the politicization of law enforcement. It's not about "immigration," it's about demonizing cities and winning elections

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

GOP #SenMikeLee Repulsive, horrible, and disgusting!

I don't think I've ever felt more like burning it all down than I have while witnessing the elite project to turn Zohran Mamdani and Brad Lander into scary, incompetent monsters while turning an actual incompetent monster, Andrew Cuomo, into a merely complicated fellow who just made an oopsie.

I did an event in DC & there was a party for donors etc after. Was talking to 2 ppl & I said "Things are so bad." They said "No this is how it is. Things swing one way, then another. It's normal." That's when I realized why Dems are toothless. They have no idea what this is. Frogs boiling in water.

Has the Senate censured Mike Lee yet?

Thank you Tim

Birds of a feather always flock together

The stupidest people are in charge because we couldn’t prosecute a political crime because it would look too political.

The guy was a registered Republican evangelical and his best friend has said he was a Trump supporter who watched InfoWars. He was traveling around with a list of MORE Democrats he wanted to kill. MAGA: “See, we told you he was a Walz-loving Lib.” Are you fucking kidding me?

Just your average commander-in-chief pop-up shop.

Melissa Hortman was a Democrat. Murdered for being a Democrat. Every headline should say so. This was political terrorism.

CENSURE MIKE LEE TOMORROW MORNING!!!!!!

Ben Shapiro getting all upset at the parade coverage as though he isn't used to taking part in activities where no one comes

Why is germ theory in the same air quotes as "miasma theory," I ask as a historian of medicine who is very very tired

Kinda wild that we all get to pay taxes to fund a civil war against us

Laura Looney:

this is obviously something to take seriously but i am also struck by how the white house’s only move is to double down, no matter how unpopular or politically disastrous it might be

We got him. Providing an update on the manhunt momentarily. m.youtube.com/watch?v=RxT-...
