tRump’s family business unveils $499 gold phone entering sector regulated by US agencies while Trump wields executive power www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Trump says 'it's possible' US gets involved in Israel-Iran conflict www.samsung-news.com/articles/AdC...

ICE told to pause most raids on farms, hotels, restaurants www.samsung-news.com/articles/TcB...

“If ICE is going to wear a mask in their uniform, then I can.” In August, Nassau County lawmakers passed a bill banning the public from wearing masks. Protesters showed up today masked anyway. We asked them why.

There is no such thing as an overreaction with what has now happened. This is the line in the sand. Every red hat who supports killing Americans is a traitor.

10 Reasons America Is In Decline youtu.be/P9_u0Oe3yrs?...

Massive #NoKings march in New York City!

Chardon, Ohio, population 5242 in 2020 census, had approximately 400 people show up in the rain. #nokings

This isn’t the crowd he was expecting… x.com/eastendjoe/s...

Reporter: I'm going to show you what 20,000 people in the streets of downtown Los Angeles looks like

The next time a tRumpublican says they have a mandate and the American public “voted for this”, keep in mind: Close to 90 million Americans did not vote, which is more than the number of votes cast for either major candidate (Trump or Harris).

So proud to be a part of this amazing morning. Location ocean beach San Francisco #nokings

Noem Says National Guard Occupation Is Meant To ‘Liberate’ LA From Its Mayor And Governor www.msn.com/en-us/news/p...

Overlooked in the coverage of the mistreatment of Sen. Alex Padilla is Noem's threat. “We are staying here to liberate the city from the socialists and the burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor have placed on this country and what they have tried to insert into the city.”

Trump Is Rapidly Expanding the Surveillance State as Protests Grow Immigrants are only the first target of a rapidly expanding digital dragnet that can track our individual movements. truthout.org/articles/tru...

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022. That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations. So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

Boebert: What we’re seeing in LA is an insurrection Pritzker: You don’t know understand what insurrection is. It is outrageous that you are asking that when you are the one condoning the pardoning of people that attacked police.

And so it begins... Israel launches ‘major strike’ on Iran’s military, nuclear sites Israel attacked at least 6 military bases around Tehran aje.io/auoxkc?updat... via @AJEnglish

This is the "man" behind tRump's most despicable policies... youtu.be/XVQBYJAY2I4?...

AOC: When they say illegal vs legal immigration—they are trying to end legal status in the US making people undocumented and then they have the audacity to call them illegal when they were here documented.

tRump told Army soldiers he will rename Fort Lee. In 1865, Robert E. Lee faced indictment for treason, charged with “wickedly, maliciously, and traitorously” carrying on war against the Constitution and the “peace and dignity” of the United States of America. I guess he feels connected.

My new piece @healthaffairs.bsky.social Forefront finds that if the House bill becomes law and enhanced premium tax credits expire on schedule, the US will see an unprecedented increase in the uninsured rate, wiping out about ~3/4 of the post-2013 decline.

Trump says, Anyone Who Protests His Birthday Parade Will Be ‘Met With Very Big Force’ Someone should read the Constitution to him.

Trump told U.S. Army soldiers during a speech at Fort Bragg in North Carolina, "For a little breaking news, we are also going to be restoring the names to Fort Pickett, Fort Hood, Fort Gordon, Fort Polk, Fort A.P. Hill and Fort Robert E. Lee." (All Confederate soldiers)

My thoughts on what’s going on in Los Angeles:

When they think no one is looking. *Cops damaging their own cars?

RFK Jr.‘s extreme anti-vax views — and his related conflicts of interest — were a huge problem during his confirmation process. So he promised not to change the vaccine advisory panel. Today, he fired every single expert on that panel. It's a public health disaster.

Trump Is Normalizing the Unthinkable: Federal Troops in American Streets, Breaking the Law — and Getting Away With It www.facebook.com/share/19KyFr...

Undocumented immigrants pay almost $100 billion in taxes each year. The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes each year. Stop pretending that immigrants are the ones taking advantage of taxpayers.

🤔

Reporter: What is the bar for sending Marines? Trump: The bar is what I think it is.

The tRump/Musk "feud" demonstrates why there are certain aspects of our government that should not be exclusively in private hands. Our satellite systems, our space program, and I would argue our healthcare, prisons, and vital utilities should not be for-profit enterprises.

"Veterans know the layoffs aren’t about saving money. They’re about weakening the institution and ultimately privatizing and gutting VA disability funding, as spelled out in Project 2025." share.google/pz6mLWSzZIYC...

SCJ Brown: ...Today the court grants a stay permitting the government to give unfettered data access to doge regardless, despite its failure to show any need or any interest in complying with existing privacy safeguards, and all before we know for sure where the federal law countenances such access.

Let them eat cake! As the tRump administration pushes for drastic cuts in social services, tRump plans a multi-million dollar authoritarian "birthday parade" and talks about constructing a grand ballroom at the White House.

Given tRump's recruiting Palentir to aggregate data on Americans, this is disturbing. DOGE given access to Americans' Social Security data by Supreme Court www.axios.com/2025/06/06/d...

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson's dissenting opinion on SCOTUS's affirmative action in college admissions opinion. She called the ruling “let-them-eat-cake obliviousness” and asserted that it will not bring a quicker end to racism. The vote was 6 to 3.
