A real life American Hero... not hiding behind a mask. I bet soon we will know his name. We salute you brother for your civil courage and the eloquence.

Donald Trump is causing harm and chaos to distract us from the Senate debating his disastrous "Big Ugly Bill" that rips away healthcare for 16 million Americans. We need to oppose these actions & ensure that people have access to Medicaid and food assistance.

If ICE were acting entirely within the law and maintaining good conditions in all its facilities, they would not be turning Congresspeople away. But they clearly aren't. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/08/n...

At no point in this entire article of 16 paragraphs does ABC mention that another cop killed this cop by shooting her in the back. Nor does it mention the name of the cop who killed this cop. Nor does it mention that the civilians involved never fired at them. ABC might as well be state media.

If you've never heard of marine heat waves, now is the time to pay attention. Driven by climate change, these increasingly frequent and extreme ocean temperature events, like “the Blob” in the North Pacific, are devastating marine life, disrupting fisheries, and impacting weather patterns. 🌊

With the $45 million being spent on the president's parade here’s what that money could do for veterans instead: House 3k veterans for an entire year in transitional housing Provide full PTSD treatment for 3.75k veterans for a year Deliver job training to 9k veterans through 12-week programs

Two babies have died from whooping cough in Kentucky. Neither they nor their parents had been vaccinated. The current whooping cough outbreak in the U.S. hasn’t grabbed the media spotlight as much as measles has, but it’s important to update your vaccination if you’re going to be around babies.

There it is. Rep. Mike Collins (R-GA) says Republicans’ next goal is to kick seniors off Social Security: “Get off of Social Security. Get back into the workforce.”

note that this completely inverts the public justification for the deportation scheme. they claim they’re deporting criminals, but they deported Kilmar without knowledge of a crime, and now that they supposedly found one they’re bringing him BACK.

Trump insisted to administration officials that a military parade in D.C. take place on his birthday, according to two sources. Several advisors and aides have privately referred to the event as “Donald Trump’s birthday parade.” Read: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Contrary to claims made by its proponents, the mass deportations' components of the Big Beautiful Bill will not improve its CBO score. Indeed, it will make it much worse. Accounting for lost net revenue from immigrants adds nearly $1 trillion in additional cost.

Yesterday German Chancellor, Friedrich Merz presented Donald Trump with his grandfather's birth certificate (who was born in Germany). This is some world-class trolling – reminding the entire world from the Oval Office, that he who is kidnapping and trafficking immigrants is himself an immigrant.

I love this. Master class

$12 million of already purchased supplies to prevent and treat AIDS are sitting in Belgium and the UAE while the administration decides whether to allow organizations and governments to distribute them or to spend hundreds of thousands more taxpayer dollars to destroy them. wapo.st/43F35LC #USAID

A reminder that trump has sent $0 to LA to rebuild after the fire but is spending at least $45 million on his birthday parade.

🏆 I love LA.

Man, we are bad at this. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

@profgalloway.com’s #CupOfJoe is so deliciously on point. Even Piers is silenced. Pay attention.

A recent study found that for every $1 invested in the National Weather Service, it produces $73 in value to Americans. Not only is the NWS a life-saving government resource, it's actually quite efficient.

Science: PFAS in drinking #water is tied to cancer. Trump policy: Cancel #PFAS drinking water regulations and cut research funding. usrtk.org/healthwire/p...

The Florida Bar has filed misconduct charges against Attorney General Pam Bondi. She has been in violation of multiple ethics rules since being sworn in.

RFK Jr. should be nowhere near any public health agency. His incompetence is deadly.

“If it weren't for Job Corps, I would never have gotten my high school diploma. I wouldn't have had the ability to get a good job.” Job Corps changes students’ lives. We’re relieved that a judge blocked the Trump admin’s efforts to dismantle it.

You'd think that UN concluding that member of its own permanent security council committing crimes against humanity would be bigger news.

Shortly after THIS column was published, a different SCOTUS decision allowed Trump to strip work permits and deportation protections from ANOTHER 500,000 immigrants who came into this country WITH LEGAL PERMISSION Trump has turned 850,000 legal immigrants into "illegal" ones in just the past WEEK!

Harvey Milk served his country honorably — first in uniform, then in public office. Taking his name off this Navy ship sends a clear message, and it’s one of disrespect and cruelty.
