1 out of every 4 mining claims in the U.S. is located within 30 miles of national parks & monuments. NPCA is fighting for mining reform so a 19th-century law giving the mining industry first dibs on public lands stops harming the environment. Read more: www.npca.org/articles/869...

Canada ‘urgently seeking more information’ on death of Canadian in ICE custody

Feeding the country lies isn’t leadership—it’s cowardice. I’m your Shadow Press Secretary and here’s the truth:

I love how the right is trying to scare us by saying the United States is turning into one of those European countries with great mass transit and free healthcare.

“The operation will go down in the anals of history”

Most people support taxing carbon even if it costs them, global survey shows

🚨 🇺🇸 #ICEkidnappers agents are literally taking #immigrants cars that they have detained instead of having them towed! How do they have any right to get into an #immigrants car and drive off in it ‼️

TRULY REMARKABLE: “A new Quinnipiac poll finds support for path to legalization for most undocumented immigrants has risen to 64%. Only 31% want most of them deported.”

. If we can fund trillion-dollar wars without question we can fund school lunches without guilt. That’s not radical. That’s moral. 🍎✊ #WWIII #WW3 #War #Politics .

Big Oil is in 99% of retirement plans — and they’ve been losing us all a lot of money. Getting out of #BigOil is one of the most impactful climate actions you can take. We’re asking the SAG-Producers Pension Plan managers to stop investing $100M+ in Big Oil. Join us: RetireBigOil.org

incredible that sullivan gets published in the NYT, they just publish every reactionary hack

Bibi Netanyahu being boycotted by UN diplomats. It’s time for this criminal to face the consequences of his atrocities.

Sweetie, I'm a woman in America in 2025. I'm fucked over every day, I assure you.

This is ridiculous. Especially if you recall that this "Daddy" abandoned his first 3 kids to run off with one of his mistresses. Then this "Daddy" abandoned his next child to run off with another mistress. The same "Daddy" who had sex with a porn actress when his last child was 4 months old.

Hegseth’s latest? Claiming Trump ordered “the most complex and secretive military operation in history.” More complex than D-Day? More secretive than Obama getting bin Laden? This isn’t just laughable—it’s pathetic. He’s not a Defense Secretary. He’s a hype man.

‘This isn’t whet I voted for. I thought they would just arrest people who are criminals’ No, this is what you voted for. You all even waved signs supporting it. Don’t let them pretend they didn’t know, they did.

Sure, we have had senior Cabinet officials who seethed about this story or that from time to time that they felt was unfair. But we’ve never had a Secretary of Defense who spends every single day so completely consumed by media coverage to the point where he can’t even function.

When it comes to the United States, the enemy is not at the gate, it was welcomed with a red carpet, elevated to the highest positions of power, and now dictates policy from within. When the people you elected no longer represent you or the highest courts fail to protect you, who do they work for?

Shrinkage

Mitch McConnell and those of his ilk want you to get over your loved ones dying without medical care because they want their tax cuts. But one day, we will get over your existence and you will only be remembered for your legacy of evil and cowardice towards Americans. #MedicaidSavesOurLives

JUST FILED: Democracy Forward is taking the Trump Admin to court over its collusion with TX AG to kill the Texas Dream Act and block access to higher ed. Democracy Forward prez Skye Perryman discusses the new lawsuit:

Summary of Hegseth press conference: 1. Trump is the greatest military strategist & political leader in human history. 2. This was the most brilliant military operation ever. 3. Iran will ever bother anyone again thanks to Trump’s leadership. 4. The media is mean.

Corporate journalism must change or die. The first changes need to be small—or change won't start at all. A good first step: correctly report that Mamdani is a democratic socialist and REFUSE TO PUBLISH any claim that he's a Socialist or Communist because that's false and therefore not newsworthy.

Getting dragged away for asking questions continues. / This time in Miami-Dade🧵

Here’s @mehdirhasan.bsky.social wondering if @senschumer or @repjeffries will call for Ogles to be censured for this disgusting tweet about @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social Will any local Tennessee media bother to call Ogles out for this racism? or for hypocritically meddling in a local election?

🚨🚨 US TRADE DEFICIT SURGES The Commerce Department's Census Bureau on Thursday reported that the international trade in goods increased by about 11 percent in May as exports decreased while imports remained relatively unchanged — a sign that Trump's tariff strategy has been a colossal failure.

Mask-off racism and fascism from Pinocchiogles — if a New York congressman tried to meddle with local Tennessee politics like this he would lose his hypocritical mind

I've been pretty disgusted this week by the anti-Muslim hatred I'm seeing online. Islamophobia gets an instant block. I don't care how long you've been following me or if you subscribe to my blog. If you engage in hateful claims against Muslims, I don't want your support. It's not up for discussion.

What the fuck is up with all the MAGAbros calling Trump their “daddy”?

To the so-called Democratic “leadership,” here’s a little free advice…courtesy of Iron Maiden: “If you’re gonna die… die with your boots on.” Stop tiptoeing like cowards in bedroom slippers. Fight like you mean it…or get out of the way. You have left so many options and strategies on the table.

NOT A SINGLE SENATOR should vote to confirm Emil Bove for the 3d Circuit Court of Appeals. (Fixed It!)

NOT A SINGLE DEMOCRATIC SENATOR should confirm Emil Bove for the 3d Circuit Court of Appeals.

If Jesus returned and went to the USA they’d send him back to Heaven for all the anti-trump memes on his phone.

Iwo Jima. We bombed the hell out of Mt.Suribachi for days. The dead Marines on the beach showed how ineffective it was.

Sen. Booker to Bove: There are complaints that pre-date your judicial nomination by years about you being so intoxicated with power and your supervisors were warned that you are a liability to the office. There are multiple reports of your abuse of power.

And contrary to widespread belief, if you say under oath that you don’t remember something that you do, in fact, remember, that’s still perjury.

Budzinski: Families making over $700,000 a year will see a boost of $12,000 almost entirely from tax cuts. Shockingly, households making $23,000 a year or less are set to lose about $1600 a year, mostly due to deep cuts to Medicaid and food assistance

What you have to understand is that this administration wants the confrontation: CA Nat’l Guard soldiers operating on fed’l orders helped DEA & other feds raid a large marijuana growth operation in the eastern Coachella Valley last week, 130 miles from downtown LA taskandpurpose.com/news/nationa...

NEW: War and climate change are existential threats that need to be battled at the same time and often with the same tools, experts say as NATO allies meet in The Hague this week FREE read via @bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Everyone is focusing on Bove’s “f*** you” comment but not enough attention being given to the other bombshell in the WB, which is the premeditated violation of the Mass. district court injunction and subsequent cover up, the same injunction which SCOTUS stayed on Monday 1/
