Overheard: Apparently Zelenskyy had some cards, and he didn’t need a suit.

@danielsgoldman.dg4ny.co responds to Joni Ernst's "we are all going to die" claim: "Millions of Americans not getting health care, not getting food assistance... is going to result in people dying because of Republican policies. And you see how much they care from Joni Ernst, which is not at all."

Spare us the fake outrage.

Awesome.

This is leadership in Action @govpritzker.illinois.gov

There are 7,591 words in the U.S. Constitution. Not one is "bible", "Jesus", "Judeo", "Christian" or "God". Separation of church and state guarantees ALL Americans the right to practice ANY religion. Or none. Which part of "religious freedom" is not as clear as a church bell?

They don’t care if you’re a citizen anymore. They enjoy torturing us.

Well done, AG Weiser! 👍 @philweiser.bsky.social

NEW: A court found it is likely unconstitutional for the Trump administration to abuse an obscure provision of immigration law to punish Mahmoud Khalil for his pro-Palestinian advocacy. Mahmoud remains detained, but we won't stop fighting until he is free.

How does this Make America Healthy Again?

BIGGER THAN WATERGATE!

Good one from Andy Borowitz.

As Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill moves to the Senate, we must make it clear: There is nothing “beautiful” about giving huge tax breaks to billionaires while cutting health care, nutrition and education for working families. It is grossly immoral and, together, we must defeat it.

Justin Wolfers has pointed out that most precision manufacturing machines are made in Europe. So just by threatening these tariffs, Trump is undermining his stated goal for all the other tariffs. In case you needed more evidence that he has no idea what the fuck he’s doing.

I'm in the mood for a Big Mac.

Let's hope this is just the start.

I am worried that even as we see the weaponization of government against Trump's political opponents, too few have stepped forward to object. I worry that as a result, we will see an escalation of political retribution that will be met with what MLK called "the appalling silence of the good people."

DOE survives…for now. “The judge also told the administration to reinstate Education Department employees who lost their jobs…and “to restore the Department to the status quo.” Trump will continue to defy the courts & cause chaos in institutions that are vital. Democrats need to fight harder.

Trump is trying to turn the news into a circus.

Eddie is speaking truth to power. 👏

Here’s an idea: Stop acting like the Gestapo.

These are deeply, profoundly, tragically abnormal times riven by cruel, hateful, reckless and ignorant people bent on dismantling our government, strengthening Putin, stoking fear, breaking our spirit, enriching themselves and ruling over the ashes of public liberty. We won’t let them succeed.

The bar is so low for the president that doing the bare minimum has the media praising him

The GOP tax bill makes the super-rich super-richer while robbing the working-class majority blind. Democrats are wide awake and standing unified to fight this historic ripoff.

WHY DOES SHE HAVE THE GREATEST ARTISTS OF ALL-TIME & I ONLY GET KID ROCK??? WAAAAAHHH!!!!! 😩
