Bondi just said DHS is helping rid us of criminals from the Sinaloa Cartel, but she failed to mention the asylum she gave to family members of the Sinaloa Cartel. She also said we're ridding the country of MS-13, but failed to mention the asylum she's giving to MS-13 leaders in the Abrego case.

After 2 years of peaceful and separate existence, I am now trying to recover from 5 days with my family. I feel scarred.

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 When the people you elected no longer represent you or the highest courts fail to protect you, who do they work for?

In addition to kicking millions of Americans off their health insurance, cutting taxes for the wealthy, and adding trillions to the deficit, other parts of Trump’s Budget are also harmful and unpopular. We need to make sure more people learn about them.

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far: A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

I have to fly tomorrow, and for the first time in longer than I can remember, I am afraid of a plane crash.

United Airlines has disabled Starlink WiFi on some regional jets after pilots experienced static interference with air traffic control radios, raising concerns about Elon Musk’s growing role in U.S. infrastructure.

FFS. They arrested an 80 year old veteran. Zip tied his hands behind him and perp walking him

I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Sound familiar?

The L.A. protesters have really gone too far this time… 🌼

I hope to see you at our No Kings Day event in Charleston on June 14! Join our nationwide day of defiance to reject Trump’s tyranny and ruin his self-serving birthday parade. app.sosha.ai/s/1EGAwxUh

If you're a Marine or other service member being mobilized to Los Angeles and you'd like to apply for conscientious objector status, call the GI Rights Hotline to get some guidance on your options: 1-877-447-4487

With the Supreme Court now handing DOGE access to Social Security data, it’s becoming undeniable, the Trump administration is building the “deep state” themselves. Don’t get distracted by the noise.

When the worst person you know gets bitten by a snake, you don’t try to befriend the snake. You observe said biting from a considerable distance and enjoy the schadenfreude.

Let's be fair here. Just because Elon says that Trump is in the Epstein files and just because there are dozens of photos with Trump & Epstein together and just because Trump called Epstein a "terrific guy" who "likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side"...

Those on the left rushing to suck up for cash, Elon Musk, is not your friend. He will never be your friend. He is trying to put the shit back in the horse and prevent his companies from collapsing. Enemy of my enemy doesn't apply here.

Trying to set up Libby on my mom’s android phone and to connect it to her Kindle so she can borrow books. What I discovered is that you could never pay me to use anything on an Android system.

This is how we should all live! 🌈

A radical transformation of our way of life is underway. Don’t let anyone gaslight you into thinking this administration is normal.

If you love a book, write a nice review. It gives the author encouragement for bad days when they want to take up scorpion petting. - @lianabrooks.bsky.social #WriterSky #BookSky #KidLit

I wish journalists would stop framing political news as wins or losses for politicians or political parties. It’s an abrogation of our mission. Why do we keep doing this? Is the spending bill a win or loss for the American people? Who does it help? Who does it hurt? Is it sound policy? Fiscally?

Protesters go after ICE in Arizona 🧵

Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” isn’t just about tax cuts it quietly guts federal protections and reshapes entire agencies. Here’s what’s buried inside:

Chris Murphy: "What we're standing in the way of is the most massive transfer of wealth from the poor and middle class to the rich in the history of the country ... these guys are running the economy recklessly because all they care about is the health of the Mar-a-Lago billionaire class."

Whether it was Joe Biden with his halting pauses or Donald Trump with his repeated promises to destroy our democracy and plunge us into a world of tyranny and economic collapse, both candidates gave voters plenty to worry about

No one gives someone a $400 million dollar jet for free without expecting anything in return. Be serious.
