The right will likely insist that all 15 women are lying and this poor man is being mistreated.

My God.

I agree. Trump wanted his parade to be exciting, and getting to attack and arrest protesters would have excited him. Instead his parade was boring, and people gathered all over the rest of the country to protest him.

Can Thune really believe this? The Republicans embrace the magic asterisk nonsense of supply-side economics the way a toddler embraces the tooth fairy.

Elon Musk stood before a giant American flag at a Wisconsin political rally in March and rolled out an eye-popping allegation of rampant fraud at the Social Security Administration. Scammers, he said, were making 40 percent of all calls to the agency’s customer service line.

I'm so grateful for @gelliottmorris.com's new project. Americans aren't learning that Trump is cutting their healthcare. www.gelliottmorris.com/p/trump-appr...

REP. RANDY FINE: Nuking Gaza would be a terrible idea. The fallout would drift into Israel. It would kill the hostages. CNN: But you're not worried about killing women & children in Gaza? FINE: War is a messy thing... Palestinianism in Gaza is on level of evil that we saw in Japan & Germany in WW2

Eric Trump on Trump Mobile: "It's about time we start making phones in the United States of America, and so that's a big push for us."

Trump is no longer operating in the same place the rest of us are. This is so fucking crazy and wrong it is hard to put into words. He's just full on working to sell as much shit to his supporters while he can.

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

TODAY: Trial begins in a lawsuit claiming that North Carolina's congressional map intentionally discriminates against Black and Latino voters, violating the U.S. Constitution and the Voting Rights Act. Learn more: www.democracydocket.com/cases/north-...

No lies told.

Damn, y'all. Russia just dunked on Scump's parade. I'm an Army veteran; but this makes us look weak as fuck. I mean, look at our troops. Their body language is very telling. They didn't want to be there. *sound up* #ProudBlue #ResistanceUnited #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Nothing to see here: just cops on horseback, bicycles, foot, and vehicles harassing a small group of peaceful protesters in a Charleston, South Carolina neighborhood.

So after terrorizing communities and ripping families apart with ICE raids at farms and restaurants, DHS is suddenly “pausing” because of labor gaps? Wild how the war on undocumented immigrants stops the second your rosé doesn’t pour itself and your salad’s missing veggies.

A huge amount of catastrophic policy right now is being driven by the fact that Stephen Miller grew up in Santa Monica and was furious when a life change pushed him into a school district where he had to share a classroom with Hispanic kids he despised. This is his revenge tour.

Look forward to Stephen Miller and Kristi Noem's Trial at the Hague for crimes against humanity. My article: deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/trump-step...

🚨🚨 Vance Boelter, the suspect in the assassination of Minnesota Democratic Rep. Melissa Hortman, is in custody. In a statement shortly after 9:30 pm today, House Speaker Lisa Demuth confirmed the arrest of the suspect. Boelter is known to be a strong supporter of Donald Trump.

GOV. WALZ: “This cannot be the norm. It cannot be the way we deal with our political differences.”

Mike Lee is fecal. For his written thoughts on the horror in Minnesota alone, any healthy republic would immediately expel him from its national legislature. That's all. That's the tweet.

At a time when we desperately need to bring down the temperature, the president of the United States is deliberately turning up the heat. His thirst for chaos and division is dangerous and deeply un-American.

Birds of a feather always flock together

You’ll notice that the American state media are no longer concerned about age seeing as the orange felon is now nearly 80 years old and all they’ve been doing is normalizing his birthday dictator march. They have completely failed all of us as well as our democracy.

MAGA is trying to deny that THIS happened yesterday — well here’s some receipts fuckheads!p

One of my biggest disappointments in American discourse over the past decade has been the mainstream media. With very few exceptions, they have failed the American people miserably.

It turns out that the very best No Kings Day protest yesterday was the one staged by the United States Armed Forces in Washington—because if you've seen any of the military experts on social media or cable news today you know that their poor marching was deliberate and intended as an insult to Trump

No banners wide enough to hold the love for liberty that swept this land on June 14. In streets & cities, in hollers & hometowns, 12 million strong stood shoulder to shoulder, not for a party—but for a principle. We are the heartbeat of a republic. And we just reminded the world: it’s still beating.

Thought we needed some feel good moments. This kid excitedly leading the chants

The Secretary of Interference said she came to California with troops to liberate the state from socialist government.

What other proof do Republicans need to believe Trump wants to be a dictator? The hot mic gets him every time. @briantylercohen.bsky.social

Bravo this sign.

A senator celebrating the murder of political opponents should be expelled. Not debated. Not excused. Expelled.

John Hoffman and Yvette Hoffman were hit by a combined 17 bullets from the Minnesota assassin, and both survived and are now recovering. Yvette shielded their daughter. www.startribune.com/john-hoffman...

Mike Lee was born with every conceivable advantage in life. His father was US Solicitor Gen & dean of BYU Law, where Mike went to school. Older brother UT Sup Ct justice. Then he got jobs where family connections certainly help open doors. But he decided he wanted to be Catturd.

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.

EPIC response.

What we learned yesterday. The Times They Are a-Changin'

When I tell you Los Angeles is an occupied city/county, this is what I mean… Yesterday, ICE agents showed up to a regular Saturday swap meet with armed Marines and a military helicopter overhead, like it’s a fucking war zone.

"Donald Trump has wrecked America’s brand. He’s made crossing over from Canada a betrayal, bordering on treason, while turning the U.S. into a laughingstock around the globe." @rollingstone.com www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Schrödinger's parade - the crowd was both sparse and dense.

It's pretty obvious that a lot of US mainstream media either doesn't recognise authoritarianism or doesn't want to call it out. Either way, it's an excellent way to destroy trust in your institution.

Whoa! Hats off to ABC News reporter Matt Gutman for keeping his cool yesterday. This LAPD officer needs to be relieved of duty if he can’t handle an alleged “touch” without snapping.
