Mark Hortman was a selfless husband and a dedicated father. He always put his family above himself and everyone who knew him knew that he was Melissa’s rock. He was a great friend to Gwen and me, and we will miss him deeply. www.mprnews.org/story/2025/0...

I hate it when I agree with Josh Hawley.

We are facing a serious threat to democracy, law, and liberty. The abuse of prosecutorial power to intimidate, investigate, and detain political opponents is upon us. It is a constitutional crisis. I will keep speaking out until public outrage overflows. I just hope it’s not too little, too late.

❗️🇺🇦 Russians had insane plans for Sumy region, but we are holding the line and destroying their forces. The region is defended — President Zelensky.

I'm tired of being embarrassed and ashamed for our country. Not of my countrymen, but for the vile buffoonery of our leaders.

This couldn't be more true.

Your reminder that Pam Bondi is a domestic terrorist and should be sent to Guantanamo Bay after this along with Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller

Happy Juneteenth Day, everyone! Shout out to my colleagues in the Black Caucus who made yesterday's celebration at the Capitol a great success. Freedom is beautiful!

Says the lazy slob who golfed on 428 days, nearly one in three days of the 1,461 days of his first presidency.

Members of Congress are being denied access to an ICE facility in Manhattan, because the conditions inside are that bad.

TODAY on the Bulwark Podcast: @mcuban.bsky.social‬ joins @timmiller.bsky.social! In this exclusive first clip, Cuban confirms that the Harris campaign wanted to vet him for the VP spot. Why didn't Cuban move forward with that? "I'm not very good as the number-two person."

what are you supposed to do when the "good" political party doesn't treat a dozen credible sexual harassment claims as disqualifying for a political candidate. how are you supposed to ignore that

As we honor #Juneteenth, let us reflect on the generations of strength and resilience in the fight for justice. Amidst dangerous divisions being sown by this administration, we must continue to stand together, with courage, to protect our rights and defend our communities.

On Juneteenth, we honor those who did not live to see their freedom from enslavement and celebrate the communities they birthed.

If you think a retrograde bully and serial sex pest like Andrew Fuckup Cuomo is the best hope for the future of the Democratic Party, go ahead and load your pockets with stones and walk into the Hudson River.

How many stories are being written with some version of the phrase, “the President is consulting with his advisers,” without pointing out that the advisers are an unqualified collection of drunks, Russian assets, and know-nothing fools? A comment worth sharing from Lincoln Square.

I’m no rocket scientist, but I don’t think they’re supposed to blow up so often.

This is a cover-up‼️ DHS is illegally trying to change the rules on congressional oversight visits to facilities to hide human rights abuses. “We know that they’re trying to hide all those abuses. That’s why it’s important that we can just get in at a moment’s notice.” – Rep. @gomez.house.gov

Some Senators are floating the idea of a relief fund to help rural hospitals hurt by Medicaid cuts. A relief fund could help hospitals, and preserve access to care for rural residents. But, a hospital relief fund does nothing for people who lose Medicaid and end up uninsured.

BREAKING: We just sued the Department of Homeland Security over their use of excessive force against protesters, reporters and legal observers. Exercising our rights to free speech should never be met with retaliatory attacks by federal agents. We’ll see you in court, DHS.

Hillary is Always Right !!!

We went from UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER!!! to “we’ll see what happens in two weeks.”
