An army of moms are are currently with Senator Cantwell in Washington DC right now rallying to stop the Big Ugly Bill and save Medicaid and SNAP. We can't let Trump's aggressive rhetoric towards Iran distract us from the fact that his budget will destroy Medicaid. #MomSky

If you're a member of the Democratic gerontocracy, the chances of you catching a primary challenger just went up 1000%.

Imagine ruining your legacy by going out of your way to endorse a sexual predator and corrupt piece of shit like Cuomo. Why? For the 1% and Wall St. Egg on their face. Sit with the yolk.

Clinton, Clyburn, Summers, Palantir, Bloomberg, NYT, Wall St, AIPAC...all tried their best. The entire establishment went full racist and Islamophobic in the end. Still Mamdani won. Biggest F U to the Democratic Establishment and 1% since AOC win. Wow.

This guy tonight. Probably

A Muslim son of immigrants might become mayor of NYC in part because he cross endorsed and supported a Jewish candidate and Black candidate, and vice versa. It's a beautiful American story for the rest of us. A nightmare for all the right people ;) It's so New York.

On the betting markets, it's over.

Thank you for all of these, but especially Pee Wee. That one always brought pause...

Another grave I'll dance on. 😏

Kill the brutal bill. Before it kills us.

#ProudBlue He dropped the F bomb this morning. Goes after two world leaders & now this. He’s on a rampage this morning. He knows he’s losing. Let’s keep the pressure on him. He’s also gone after Thomas Massie this morning. Lol! Yam Tits is unhinged & is spiraling even more out of control.

The most important part of republican fascism is the demand you must be nice to them.

“On his first call to his son after the detainment, Barranco was less concerned with his injuries and more concerned with his job. He told him where his truck and equipment were and asked him to speak with his client and finish the job, the younger Barranco said.”

This is a horrifying ruling that shows a disdain for basic human rights principles — made all the more unconscionable by the fact that the Republican appointees did so with no reasoning and on the shadow docket.

The US Supreme Court rules that there is no law and there is no constitution

Since the 988 Lifeline was created 2 years ago, more than 1.3 million people have reached out to its specialized LGBTQ+ youth services for help. Ending this program will cost lives. We’re going to keep fighting back against President Trump’s attacks on the LGBTQ+ community.

Bingo.

Just to be crystal clear: bombing Iran is completely illegal.

what in gay hell

“We will not give up until Andry is freed from that prison. This is an immigrant community—we stand up for our immigrants, we stand up for our LGBTQ people.”  #FreeAndry, FREE THEM ALL

You’ll see how seriously Americans take the words “freedom” & “liberty” by how they think trans folks should be made to live. And you’ll see how seriously they oppose “big govt” when said govt comes btw a family & their Dr. They don't care abt the kids. johnfugelsang.substack.com/publish/post...

It’s been increasingly obvious that the truly odious Stephen Miller is running the show—and not just on mass abductions. While Trump has been out at UFC games or golfing on the taxpayer dime or in a confused state of mind (paging Jake Tapper), it’s Miller who appears to be calling the shots 👇🏽

At 92, Willie Nelson was moved to tears after an eight-minute standing ovation at the 2025 Outlaw Music Festival in Phoenix. Thousands chanted “Forever Willie,” honoring the legendary singer with a powerful outpouring of love and gratitude. #BlueCrew #ProudBlue #BlueCircleFamily 💙💙

Never been prouder to be in Los Angeles.

“This vulnerability is going to increase, there's no doubt about it," Jones said. "Until the state's leaders come to grips with that, we are going to continue to see these problems at a greater frequency." - @theswinerepublic.bsky.social www.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/2...

I will never again see an ICE agent without assuming they're from Proud Boys or Oath Keepers, a pardoned Jan 6 rioter or a member of the KKK.

It’s #juneteenth everyone, and our Gay of the Day inspired Lady Gaga and is taking us to church! One of the first #black #lgbtq churches! It’s Archbishop Carl Bean! ‘God is love and love is everywhere.’ #pride #pridemonth #history #lgbt

Wow. Lenacapavir, a twice-yearly shot that prevents HIV spread was just approved by the FDA. The problem? Due to government cuts to Medicaid, PEPFAR, and Global Fund, it's unlikely this game-changing drug will reach the many people who need it most in the US and globally.

Punk rock kid buskers (‘The Whops’, tiktok) near the Edgware Rd. They run into Paul Simonon, play Death or Glory for him. He asks if they know The Guns of Brixton. They do -

I remember those days. #techlife #meme

Jeebuz. We live in the most stupid timeline.

😡 So fucking stupid and evil.

😡🫩😡

With everything else going on, the Senate sent the Big 💩 Bill back to the House, and made some changes. Here’s one:

oh my god

There are no distractions. It's all bad. Systematically stripping trans people of their rights, guys in balaclavas shoving any brown person with a tattoo into a ummarked vans, ending healthcare for millions. It's all in service of fascism and technofeudalism. It's all one thing. That's the point.

The federal government imposing a stop work order on Trevor project for the national 988 suicide hotline on the same day that the Supreme Court greenlit a ban on care despite the risk of suicide sends a clear message: The United States government officially wants trans youth to kill themselves.

It's a three-box day at SCOTUS, meaning we are expecting up to 6 opinions today. Opinions start in 5 minutes.

🌽 Christina Bohannan announced her third shot at unseating Mariannette Miller-Meeks in what's become Congress' ultimate toss-up district (last margin: 799 votes). Watch the newest episode of Cornhole Champions here:

Tonight, I'll go home and sleep in my bed. I have a lawyer, I'll get due process. But Edgardo, whose arm was ripped from mine by ICE agents, has none of those things. That's why I'll keep coming back to court, week after week, to make sure that people's rights are protected.

Reporter: Five fellow mayoral candidates came here within 90 minutes of you being arrested and called for your release. What does that say about the tenor of the mayor's race? Lander: Was one of them Andrew Cuomo? Reporter: It was not. Lander: Imagine that!

a very good statement that’s worth watching in full. the more elected officials who stand up against this administration’s fear tactics, the better.
