@radiofreetom.bsky.social THERE’S ONE RIGHT BEHIND YOU

Because half the country so desperately wanted Trump back, we may now be on the verge of attacking Iran because the fake peacenik president wants some credit for Israel's military accomplishments. The latest Bulwark Pod is out:

Two weeks you say?

Nauseating www.politico.com/news/2025/06... Bloomberg pours more cash into Cuomo super PAC, bringing his total contribution to $8.3M - POLITICO

It’s a failure of journalism to do shit like this. Donald Trump has said that something will happen “within two weeks” at least 5,000 times in the past decade with easily over 4,900 of those “deadlines” passing with no action.

He was detained outside church. “He was in chains at his feet,” Alondra Sotelo-Garcia told a local news outlet about seeing her father arrested. “Shoelaces were taken off, his belt was off, he didn’t have his ring, he didn’t have his watch. Everything was taken from him.”

He's not seriously playing the TWO WEEKS game again??? Trump to decide on US action in Israel-Iran conflict within two weeks - BBC

“I’m here today because this is something I can do against Trump. I lived during the Nazi time in Germany and they put me in a concentration camp,” he told interviewer Shannon Powell, co-founder of Indivisible Westchester. “Trump is trying to imitate Hitler. That’s what I’m afraid of.”

"Gradually, one by one, stealthily at first, the older slaves began to wander from the slave quarters back to the 'big house' to have a whispered conversation with their former owners as to the future" - Booker T. Washington on the first moments of freedom

Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium. ICE says it wasn’t them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? They’ve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.

After the judge deemed the NIH grant terminations illegal, he noted that the government’s practices were discriminatory: “This represents racial discrimination, and discrimination against America’s LGBTQ community. … I would be blind not to call it out.”

"Trump’s second term is about correcting the errors of his first. In 2020, Trump’s plan to seize voting machines was blocked from within the government, but the WH is now staffed by loyalists. And with Trump deploying the military to US cities, he'll have boots on the ground to execute his plans."

You can put them in the rank order of your preference, but they are all bad. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

On Juneteenth, we remember when the military helped bring freedom to the enslaved in Texas. Tianna Mays and Jonathan Barry-Blocker warn that Trump’s recent actions betray that legacy of justice.

This CNN story, describing DHS' attempt to rewrite the rule on Congressional oversight, is fairly insane. It suggests the change is due to "run-ins" with ICE. It doesn't mention that Ras Baraka is suing for wrongful arrest, much less that Newark is suing. edition.cnn.com/2025/06/19/p...

Daydreaming about being at the Rose Garden restoration unveiling in 2030 at a Democratic White House.

Perfect comparison.

The observance of Juneteenth calls us to recommit ourselves to the work of equity, equality, and justice. Each June 19, and especially today in Minnesota, we are reminded of our incredible capacity to heal, hope, and emerge from our darkest moments with purpose and resolve.

Two weeks.

Trump’s budget bill wants to slash funding for pets in Domestic Violence shelters. My latest video on why this isn’t just about a pet & will just lead to more violence: youtu.be/nLKFD3NoG38

ICE officials require adequate time to dispose of bodies, disappear troublesome detainees, simulate marginally adequate conditions, put on shirts without visible burrito stains, etc.

The Supreme Court is set to issue opinions in the 16 remaining cases it heard this term, including: ⚖️Birthright Citizenship/Nationwide Injunctions. ⚖️Louisiana Redistricting. I founded Democracy Docket in 2020 to keep you informed. Sign-up now for free. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0

It's always two weeks. I keep thinking of the Money Pit.

“These stories [from formerly enslaved people] remind us freedom is not a given—it demands we do the hard work of making and remaking the path forward.” www.americaamerica.news/p/the-compli...

Kinda like DOGE

Remember that Juneteenth is a federal holiday because Joe Biden signed this day into law to commemorate freedom.

If we don't want to repeat history, we'd better be strong enough to learn from it. The authoritarian playbook starts with pointing to a group of people who don’t look like you and blaming them for your problems. When those issues are still there, what comes next?

DEAR @cnn.com HOW THE FUCK IS THIS NEWS???????? ENCOURAGED?!!! HE'S A CONFUSED POS WHO HAS NO IDEA WHAT HE'S DOING. TELL THE FUCKING TRUTH!!!!

Do folks at ICE not have money to buy suits anymore?

One reason it puzzles me that people are not including David Huerta in their list of Dems Noem arrested is … the attack on unions is coming. Hard.

Rest in peace, Gilbert. 💔

BREAKING 🚨 🚨 🚨 Judge rules EPA termination of environmental justice grants was unlawful EPA cannot “thumb its nose at Congress” by refusing to spend appropriated funds, the judge wrote. www.politico.com/news/2025/06...

There no way the world can survive a world war - and to stop ww 3 Netanyahu must be removed from power

Trump and Netanyahu belong in straight jackets

I’m about to leave for a short trip to Europe. In Romania, I will be the first U.S. government official to meet their newly elected pro-Western President. In France, I will give a speech on the need for the U.S. and Europe to work together to prevent massive job loss from AI.

Leaders of the free world

For those looking for signs the tide is turning, the American Bar Association just dropped a massive federal lawsuit against the Trump regime, naming every single department and every single cabinet member. My write-up on this unprecedented move in the replies.

Nailed it: “Gender dysphoria, gender identity disorder, or gender incongruence are among the defining traits that make someone transgender. Roberts might as well have argued that Jim Crow laws do not discriminate on the basis of race, but instead discriminate based on the color of a person’s skin.”

Asked about a possible U.S. attack on Iran, Trump said: “I like to make a final decision one second before." He thinks it's a damn game show. Spin the wheel and see whether millions of people die.
