Waiting for the official US reports of headaches from the Iranian retaliation

The progression in one week from freshman Congressman Pat Harrigan (R-NC): “Regime change by force does not work” “POTUS is relying on peace through strength” “We tried peace through strength” “We’re trying to lower the temperature while raising it in order to lower it”

This is my representation in the US House. "Meet the Congress Woman Who Was Almost Aborted". youtu.be/bbu_QlhYZ0A?...

Trump just did his version of this.

I convey my awe of Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson’s intellect via this mic drop, which Her Honor delivered from the bench—expertly yet accessibly detailing 14th Amendment’s innate race-consciousness: abortion, same-sex marriage, privacy and all other rights Republicans hate, exist via Amendment 14. ⚖️

Listened to stories of the heat dome, humid air, survival tips. Then I got a weather notification saying today would be 4° cooler but still overnight lows of 75 because that's how it always is in Florida

You can watch Joe Biden speak at the Galveston Juneteenth celebration, at Reedy Chapel AME Church, here. He signed the law making Juneteenth a federal holiday. He commemorated and built; he didn't tear down and go in reverse. www.fox26houston.com/news/joe-bid...

🧵 Happy #Juneteenth, y’all! Original text of General Order No. 3:

I had to use search to block the account. Great job, bluesky

Having a bit of a hard time with the concept that if a guy in a police uniform who has a police vehicle shows up I should lock the doors and call 911, but if a guy in a ski mask with an hGH gut appears to be kidnapping my neighbor, I shouldn’t ask who he is if I don’t want federal charges.

At age 9, on the way home from T-ball, I witnessed the murder scene of arguably the Genesis moment of anti-abortion extremist violence. It also led to the series of events that gave us Morning Joe. AMA

This is code for "Trump sent Rubio out for hamberders and KFC."

I spoke to @wired.com on this: “These are not the first murders that have been abetted by the data broker industry. But most of the previous targets were relatively unknown victims of stalking and abuse … Lawmakers need to act before they have more blood on their hands” www.wired.com/story/minnes...

"If I go and ask a hundred soccer people out there, ‘What’s beautiful soccer?’ I’m going to get a hundred different answers. And it might be based on ethnicity...." Alexi Lalas thinks "beautiful" soccer is defined by ethnicity.

Vance Luther Boelter, 57, was captured late Sunday in Minnesota and charged in the assassination of former state House Speaker Melissa Hortman (D) and her husband, Mark, and the attempted assassination of state Sen. John Hoffman (D) and his wife, Yvette. talkingpointsmemo.com/morning-memo...

Amplify Yvette Hoffman’s heroics, not Trump’s incitement. www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/ne...

Political violence is not an incidental risk which they are merely negligent about managing and policing. It is their Schmittian central premise. Political violence against their enemies *is* the ideology itself. That's what illiberal populism is. There's no such thing as a peaceful form of it.

Trump absolutely told agents of all levels of government that they would have free reign to execute violence on behalf of him and that he would ensure it was not just protected but rewarded.
