You gotta love it. E. Jean Carroll trolling the Oval Office criminal on X.

NEW: He didn’t like Pelosi. He didn’t like Tim Walz. He didn’t like Joe Biden. He DID like Alex Jones. He DID vote for Trump. He would be offended if anyone thought he was a democrat. wapo.st/45UNM4e

Mike Lee was born with every conceivable advantage in life. His father was US Solicitor Gen & dean of BYU Law, where Mike went to school. Older brother UT Sup Ct justice. Then he got jobs where family connections certainly help open doors. But he decided he wanted to be Catturd.

We won’t amplify it, but the president posting that Dems are “sick of mind” and “hate our country” immediately after 2 Dem lawmakers and their spouses were shot in their homes is the opposite of leadership. Gas on the fire.

When does the “great” part start?

WE HAVE QUESTIONS… This is a kidnapping. No uniform, no badge, civilian car. Who are they? ICE? Sanctioned bounty hunters? Either way, they’re grabbing people without warrants. How often is this happening, and why aren’t more people talking about it? Congress?

Political violence must always be condemned.

"If you’re among the vast sea of Americans who remain enthusiastically grateful for vaccines, the time for pushing back against Kennedy isn’t later, when he’ll likely be ratcheting up his program to 'reevaluate' longstanding pediatric vaccines."

South LA runs ICE off ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼✊🏻

Walz: "This cannot be the norm. It cannot be the way that we deal with our political differences. Now is the time for us to recommit to the core values of this country ... Talk to a neighbor rather than arguing. Debate an issue. Shake hands. Find common ground. This is who Melissa Hortman was."

So it was the "No Kings" marches versus the "No Crowds" parade

MSNBC reporter in gas mask in Los Angeles: I think it was Sheriffs deploying CS gas, tear gas, pepper spray, and flash bang grenades in large numbers. Mounted units pushing against protesters.., every single gathering I saw today was 100% peaceful

Reporter: I'm going to show you what 20,000 people in the streets of downtown Los Angeles looks like

#NoKings New York

just watched this netflix documentary on the oklahoma city bombing and once again i'm struck by how so many of the popular media takes on this event just avoid entirely the connection to organized white supremacism

Remarkable. MSNC: "I want to reiterate this has been 100% peaceful." Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd. Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.

“If ICE is going to wear a mask in their uniform, then I can.” In August, Nassau County lawmakers passed a bill banning the public from wearing masks. Protesters showed up today masked anyway. We asked them why.

Susan Sarandon has the nerve. That's all we're gonna say. #NoKingsDay

I’m Kat Abughazaleh and I approve this message.

Walz announces that Rep. Melissa Hortman is dead as a result of a "politically motivated assassination"

Hi, I’m God. How would Jesus feel about ICE? What would Jesus do? What would ICE do to Jesus?

"I voted for lawless, anonymous, masked, and unchecked police" is one hell of a jump from "eggs cost too much."

I ran an experiment, simultaneously posting articles on Bluesky and X, and then testing to see how many people actually clicked and read them. The numbers on Bluesky are higher, both because the X algorithm downranks journalism, and because Bluesky attracts readers, not just shitposters.

To anyone who wondered, what could go wrong if we elected as president a highly volatile, deeply dishonest, simple-minded cretin with a revenge fetish, the answer is THIS. All of THIS.

We need to stand up for @terrymoranabc.bsky.social

"Tanner, a chemist at the Univ. of Mississippi working to develop a novel approach for treating glioblastoma, was notified in April that the grant was terminated. “I would like to cure brain cancer,” Dr. Tanner said. “I think that's not particularly controversial.” www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Draft dodger, Trump is. A warrior Trump is not, a pussy cat he is.

True story…

Oh, honey . . . You can’t even get your wife back.

“'I think mistakes were made,' said Lavingia, who worked at DOGE for nearly two months, 'I’m sure mistakes were made.' "The [DOGE A.I.] model hallucinated, deciding around 1,100 contracts were each worth $34 million when they were sometimes worth thousands..." www.propublica.org/article/insi...

Federal immigration agents in riot gear squared off with hundreds of protesters for a second consecutive day on Saturday in Los Angeles County, filling streets with tear gas and smoke. nyti.ms/4kUON0y

📌NOTE: Sending the Marines into ANY U.S. city would be the greatest, anti-American insult TO THE MARINES I have seen in my entire lifetime. 📌This is weak, disgusting and NOT THEIR MISSION. Be about time for retired Marines to start speaking up, because you KNOW you are better than this. -Navy guy

Ahem.

Goldman: Both of the issues Marjorie Taylor Greene raised—were widely publicized and thoroughly debated in committee and on the House floor. If you’re publicly admitting that you didn’t know what you were voting on and now regret it—you’re not competent or qualified to serve in Congress.

“Anyone”

I’ve read too much science fiction too many dystopian novels and too many poems on civil rights to be quiet…

The LA protestors are putting on a masterclass. They continually engage with ICE, shaming them, repeating over and over that they’re all Americans and what they are doing is shameful to people who just aspire to have that. Humanize everyone, it’s the only way.

“Tasted a little tear gas— tasted like fascism”
