this was some weird shit, folks

The man with the nuclear codes walked into a wall. 😬

* MAJOR AIRLINE CEOS SAY AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL SYSTEM IS "FAILING AMERICANS", URGE CONGRESS TO ACT QUICKLY ON FUNDING NEW SYSTEM -- LETTER @reuters.com $XAL

Here’s an idea: Stop acting like the Gestapo.

1. NEWS On a call Monday, President Trump told European leaders that Russian President Vladimir Putin isn't ready to end the war because he thinks he is winning. The acknowledgment was what European leaders had long believed about Putin-but it was the first time they were hearing it from Trump.

There's been a lot of attention lately on JD Vance's sordid conversion from Trump critic to avid Trumpist/VP. But less attention has been paid to Vance's previous criticisms of GOP Medicaid cuts. That should be a big focus now with the House GOP bill: newrepublic.com/article/1954...

And now, an emergency motion for a temporary injunction to keep the government from deporting people in another case to South Sudan. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The very definition of evil is incarcerating for life in one of the worst hellholes on Earth men who did everything right. But it’s beyond evil—beyond demonic—to then not try to do anything to save the men you consigned to Hell, *and* to in fact libel and slander them daily when they cannot reply.

Say what now

It’s amusing but not surprising that our new mayor, whose platform was “vote for me, I’m better in natural disasters,” obliquely blamed her predecessor for the city’s sirens not going off before Friday’s tornado. The policy of who should alarm when was unclear, evidently.

HASSAN: What is habeas corpus? NOEM: Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country HASSAN: That's incorrect

Alex Lawson to Rep. Miller-Meeks: Last time you spoke with us you lied to our face and said you wouldn’t vote for Medicaid cuts, but you’ve voted for the largest cuts in the history of the country. Do you have any comment on the health care that 67,000 people in your district are going to lose?

Don't let up. Hold their feet to the fire. (DoJ: I do not mean to literally light feet on fire.)

DURBIN: How can we give hope to people across the country who are suffering from so many diseases when our government is cutting back on that research? RFK Jr: I do not know about any cuts to ALS research D: I just read them to you! R: I didn't know about them until you told me about them

“Habeas corpus is the legal principle that requires the government to provide a public reason for detaining and imprisoning people. If not for that protection, the government could simply arrest people, including American citizens, and hold them indefinitely for no reason.”

Is it too much to ask for an IRS Commissioner who understands the law?

The Trump administration is allegedly shipping people who are from Vietnam and Burma, in southeast Asia, to wartorn South Sudan, in East Africa. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Dear press: Why do questions of mental acuity activate only with the prior but not the current administration? Asking for a nation.

I just declared a peacetime emergency to ensure we’re providing every possible resource for those fighting the wildfires in Minnesota. As fires remain active up north, I’m grateful for the tireless work and coordinated response of those on the frontlines.

Thank you for everything, Mr. President. Keep fighting the good fight. Now go kick cancer’s ass. 💙🇺🇸

Donald Trump wants a massive military parade for his birthday—tanks, jets, 6,600 troops—all on YOUR dime. It’s grotesque. A wannabe king playing dress-up with taxpayer dollars. I introduced the HAPPY BIRTHDAY Budget Act to block this nonsense. If he wants a party, he can pay for it himself.

SeaShellGate now has FBI agents investigating 86 around the clock. As a proud Class of 1986 member, I reject this usurpation of our mostly unsullied reputation.

My statement on the charges filed against me:

Ah yes, the “golden age.”

When you have to say it….

Guys can we just revoke this baby’s victim card? So beta Seriously such a beta. This guy is absolutely unworthy to be commander of military men and women

Pence: "Individuals who broke into the Capitol, who assaulted police officers...should have been prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law...The heroes on January 6 were all wearing uniforms...To have pardoned the people who assaulted police officers that day, was wrong."

Don Jr is not only despicable human garbage, he has unknowing confessed he likes to have people’s fingers up his asshole.

Reading back-to-back NYT articles today suggests that anti-vax sentiment is moving from 'You can't make me!' to 'You can't have one!' ...something, something... personal freedom... something, something...

Joe Biden is a man of faith and fight. For more than 50 years, President Biden has faithfully served our country. Through immeasurable loss, he has never wavered in the fight to protect the vulnerable, speak truth to power, and stand up for what is right.

The right to a secure and dignified retirement is one of the bedrock principles of American life. Social Security is a sacred trust.

NPR calls it a bombing. It’s not a “targeted explosion” or an “intentional act of violence” as other outlets use to soften the tone. It’s a bombing. NPR gets it right.

Holy shit! I didn’t realize there were people on the masts of the ship. 🫣

They really are vile people.

Back the blue? Your followers BEAT the blue on Jan. 6 and then you pardoned them. Shameful.

Just discovered—Pete Buttigieg has his own YouTube channel. youtu.be/AezTjvCNW5k?...

A vehicle explosion was detonated at a Palm Springs fertility clinic today, with authorities suspecting it was an act of terror.

My thoughts and prayers are with everyone impacted by the bombing today at the American Reproductive Centers clinic in Palm Springs, especially the loved ones of the person who lost their life. This was a horrifying, intentional act of violence. It also happens to be my sister’s fertility clinic.

He’s got private golf resorts, personal jets, and towers with his name on them and yet he’s still begging oil despots for a luxury plane instead of helping people working two jobs who can’t make rent.

A reminder that if the minimum wage had kept pace with worker productivity gains since the 1960s, it would now be nearly $26 an hour.

As Governor, I will sign a bill into law protecting women’s access to birth control. You have my word.

Oh, ABC. You blew it when you caved the first time and cut a $16m check. Don’t give Shitler another inch or another dime, and tell him to go fuck himself. #GoHarvard #GoMaine

Just listened to the Hur interview tape and I’m utterly appalled at all the incoherent and crazy things Biden said about Revolutionary War airports, injecting bleach, people eating cats and dogs, Hannibal Lecter, and Arnold Palmer’s penis. Simply unbelievable that he ran for president again.

Im waiting on the instant announcement from Taylor Swift saying that she is giving a free concert in Washington DC on June 14th.
