The New York Times reports Jonathan Braun—a violent felon with ties to Jared Kushner, whose sentence Trump commuted—has been sent back to prison after new charges, including assaulting a 3-year-old. In court, he ranted about his lawyer and flipped off spectators. His fifth arrest.

How is this response not disqualifying? If you can’t testify truthfully under oath that you did not suggest telling the courts fuck you, then you have no business being a judge.

A lie THIS obvious isn’t an attempt to fool anyone; it’s just a pure expression of contempt.

We have not faced an authoritarian takeover of our government of this magnitude before. We need new names. New faces. New modes of politics. NYC just sent this message.

Yep, I said it. People around Trump know he’s cognitively impaired and are keeping quiet about it. Somebody should write about it. Me.👇

He just dropped $280,000,000 worth of artillery in a war that’s not ours, but our grandparents have to live on Ramen noodles because America can’t afford Meals on Wheels anymore. Make it make sense.

This twice-yearly shot almost completely prevents HIV and is now approved. It could shut down HIV. It needs to roll out in at risk groups. But Trump has gutted HIV prevention at home and abroad. That could be stopped, however. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/18/h...

Every major Dem politician needs to realize that, in this environment, they can schedule a "speech to the nation," like Newsom did, and get tons of media coverage. Just do it.

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

President Donald Trump said that he plans to phase out FEMA after this year’s hurricane season, offering the clearest timeline yet for his administration’s long-term plans to dismantle the disaster relief agency and shift responsibility for response and recovery onto states.

MAJOR UPDATE: The Supreme Court just handed DOGE the keys to all the sensitive personal information Social Security has on file — your income, benefits, health records, and more. Why do Donald Trump and his cronies need access to millions of Americans’ private data? It’s absurd.
