As I predicted, we are now entering an era where we cannot necessarily trust data coming from the federal govt on things like inflation. Something to watch VERY closely for GDP, unemployment, everything. www.wsj.com/economy/cpi-...

Stephen Miller is privately raging over deportation numbers he deems too low. So he's shifting huge amounts of law enforcement resources away from fighting serious crimes and into his immigration crackdown. If voters knew about this, they'd recoil. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/1961...

We reject the politics of cynicism that demand LGBTQ+ people silence their voices and simply give up in the face of an assault on basic rights. This Pride, let’s stake our place in the world.

America was given a choice between a lawless, amoral monster and a qualified, intelligent, joyful woman of color—and it chose the monster. We need to reckon with the reality of what that says about so many of us here. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/america-ch...

If right-wingers actually wanted to support families, they’d be backing family-level wages, free child care, and Medicare for all. Everything else is political BS. jimhightower.substack.com/p/right-wing...

Under Shitler, we're going to go from being the richest nation in the world to the most bankrupt (we already are morally, under that orange fuckwit, now we'll be financially as well). It's his MO to bankrupt everything. He's like King Midas, but with shit.

We’re urging the court to dismiss Huntington Beach’s attempt to challenge the California Values Act in court.     The California Values Act ensures law enforcement resources are used to protect public safety and to maintain trust between officers and the communities they serve.

You know what? Kilmar Abrego Garcia and hundreds (perhaps even thousands) of others have still not been returned to the US. We can't forget. We can't give up on them. I called my two Senators today to remind them. I'll be calling Representative Hayes tomorrow as well. Keep em under pressure.

“One Big Beautiful Bill”? Try one big, bold-faced lie. They swore this mess wouldn’t add to the deficit…but the nonpartisan budget office says otherwise. $2.4 TRILLION added to the deficit—and for what? Tax cuts for the rich.

Gonna say something obvious to most: real masculinity defends the defenseless, punches up not down, has compassion, and fights only on behalf of others to battle injustice or evil. It doesn’t just lift weights and tweet in all caps and listen to Rogan and grow a beard to feel accepted by other men
