Trump is back to selling scams—this time, it's a $499 phone. He’s doing what he does best: turning the presidency into a business deal. Republicans spent years investigating the Bidens despite no evidence of corruption or pay to play. (1/2)

ICE agents are out here manhandling elected officials—yet again. They arrested NYC Comptroller Brad Lander for asking if they had a warrant—which is his constitutional right. (1/2)

Sen. Alex Padilla on the Senate floor: "If that is what the administration is willing to do to a United States senator for having the authority to simply ask a question, imagine what they'll do to any American who dares to speak up." "I pray you never have a moment like this."

She's managed to keep herself out of the limelight, but she's still raking in money hand over fist in the background. These people are so corrupt it's mind boggling.

Finally, someone from the GOP showed a little leadership.

Bravo this sign.

I’m old enough to remember when Donald Trump said President Obama was going to get us in a war with Iran. Seems Donald is the warmonger after all.

This is happening across America. Contributing members of society who are doing the right thing and showing up to immigration court are being ripped away from their families by Trump's ICE Gestapo. 🥺👇

Gift link because it’s a good article. But this paragraph was the thing that stood out to me most: "Honestly, I think he seemed kind of stunned to be confronted directly with what he'd done," Smith said of their exchange, noting that he didn't say much in response.

Good question.

The Right Honorable Mark Carney, Prime Minister of Canada, effectively tells Trump he's not going to spread his lies and fascist bullshit while on Canadian soil.

BREAKING: A federal judge reversed National Institutes of Health's terminations of hundreds of critical research grants that were canceled because of their alleged connection to disfavored topics, including diversity, equity, inclusion, and gender identity. This is a major win for public health.

This will be my next sign! 👏👏👏

It is firmly in the “somebody’s making an active decision to downplay this” territory.

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Congrats to EVERYONE!! 😎 It looks like the ‘3% threshold of peaceful protestors’ showed up for ‘No Kings Day’…👇 11+ MILLION in the streets of America is a danger to Trump, and he knows it. Great. Job. To. The. Real. Patriots. 🇺🇸✨

Rolling Stone rocks. From "Dear Leader" in red, down to the first sentence of the article... this is perfect.. I scribbled over his face cuz I always do, Just imagine the most pathetically miserable & tired-looking DJT you've ever seen. And he's much older-looking than most 79-yr-olds I know.

8,647 for Trump's little military/birthday/Dear Leader parade. Over 11 MILLION people showed up at all of the #NoKings protests. I bet some ketchup is being flung today.🤣🤣🤣

Best image of the day:

I think it's TRUMP SHARPIE TIME again..😂😂😂😂

Omgggg

THIS is what happens when you even consider pardoning those responsible for attempting to kidnap @GovWhitmer -- the BLOOD is on TRUMP's hands and he must be held accountable. No Kings Day NOW: Manhunt underway after Minnesota lawmaker killed and another injured in ‘politically motivated’ shootings

Thousands turn out for #NoKings Day in Cincinnati OH -- where JD & Usha Vance are registered to vote; where voters rejected JD's brother Cory Bowman

(🧵) I’ve never—in 30 years in journalism—published a report like this: one that could genuinely bring hope. I spent the last 15 hours curating and labeling photos from hundreds of No Kings Day protests. It’s the largest archive of its kind and it has *lots* of Easter eggs (memes, an essay and more).

The FUHRER PARADE to be viewed on all stations by edict Saturday June 14. But, if you wish to see a more comprehensive view, the DESPOTs WH has set up three pay-per-view streaming shows with the money going to Donald Trump’s FL PACs per Karoline Leavitt WH press secretary extraordinaire

The East Coast has shown up, 2.4 million and counting, with massive turnouts in small towns across the country. Shoutout to the Carolinas, Georgia, and Ohio for showing up strong!
