The president has covered the Oval Office in gold, is planning a massive military parade for his birthday, and is now accepting $400,000,000 luxury planes from foreign powers as personal presents. What the fuck are we doing here?

Wow Check this out Graduates from VCU walk out on MAGA Governor Glenn Youngkin in Virginia This is how it's done America Stand strong and fight So proud of them ❤️ #MomSky

Exactly 💥😎🤣

This week’s Doctor Who, “The Story and the Engine”, is the coolest episode I’ve seen in YEARS. Concept, script, design, execution, all top-tier! 🤯

This is the cartoon that Musk saw and demanded Trump defund Public Broadcasting (PBS)🤔🤣

🚨 Disturbing footage shows the brutal arrest of a terrified 16-year-old girl—sobbing, screaming as “ICE agents” abducted her mom without a warrant or ID. At least 4 grown men slammed her face into the pavement. This is child abuse. This is state terror. Worcester police are complicit.

Never not reposting this. I expect SOMEONE to take this on for me. Don’t let me down, people.

BREAKING: President Trump just fired our nation's Librarian. My statement here:

The Orange Dude was fact-checked...

Casar: "The party of 'very fine people on both sides' or 'Jewish space lasers' does not give a damn about stopping antisemitism. If my Republican colleagues want to stop the spread of antisemitism, maybe they should stop apologizing for and promoting antisemites."

It's tough to refer to someone as a criminal if you've given them no due process to determine whether they're a criminal. Like if you get arrested and get a trial and are convicted of 34 felony counts. That's due process. You can call that guy a criminal.

Planes, obviously miffed we can barely keep them in the air right now are like, "You know what? I'd rather swim."

If guilty people don't have Due Process rights, then innocent people don't have Due Process rights, because we don't know if they're innocent or guilty until we have a trial or hearing.

Crockett debuts a new game called "Trump or trans," then displays a gigantic placard of Trump golfing

To be effective, our opposition to today's abuses must run alongside a clear picture of what we are actually for - and how everyday life could be better with different leadership.

One great thing about ANDOR is all the soy Republicans who love to complain about Star Wars being too woke have absolutely nothing to say about this show because it is leagues above their mental pay grade. They do not have the vocabulary to engage with any of the points it makes

Legally required to always share.

Hard facts: If you’re still defending your choice to not show up and vote last November, you failed. Period. End of story. I don’t care what you say about Biden. I don’t care what you say about Harris’ campaign. Trump’s narrow victory is due to your inability to think beyond your own desires.

#ProudBlue THIS is what leadership looks like. Once again, @jbpritzker.bsky.social steps up to protect his constituents in IL from 47’s administration’s overreach & invasion of privacy. chicago.suntimes.com/politics/202...

guy who thinks the Protect The Dolls shirts are about tariffs

I feel really stupid asking again

If you watched all the new episodes of Andor tonight, you have a reasonably good sense of what quite possibly lies ahead for America. I pray it isn't so. I fear it is. I am resolved to stand up and be counted—but also wise enough to know that none of us know yet what that will look like or require.

Another US fighter jet falls into sea from Truman aircraft carrier, US officials say reut.rs/3GJnYxF

These headlines related to U.S. military aviation have all appeared in the last 11 days. There is a major problem at the Defense Department.

Is anyone else’s Disney Plus popping up the “Next Episode” banner a full TWO MINUTES or more before an episode of something is over?? It’s KILLING the immersion in what you’re watching! Mine most recently happened during Andor S2E8. @disneyplushelp.bsky.social

My message to DHS Secretary Kristi Noem today: We expect the President to follow the constitution and the law. America is a democracy, not a dictatorship.

TRUMP PARADE? June 14th a MILLION people should “attend” the parade with the upside down American flag and your NO F’ING KINGS signs. Let’s make it a REALLY memorable birthday for the wannabe dictator!

Are you a herd-immunity freeloader? Explain your confident stance

I may be the only lawyer targeted by Trump willing to speak on camera, but for me it wasn't a choice. All of us have an obligation to speak out against what Trump is doing. All of us have an obligation to fight for democracy. I am fortunate to be a lawyer and to have a platform -- and I will use it.

This actually makes me emotional because it simultaneously shows the relevance of critical thinking, the arts, literature, history, and the law—and precisely why Trump is trying to erase all of them. Fighting back with liberal arts is an actual act of beauty.

“I urge you to keep going, keep doing what is right for our country, and I do believe that history will vindicate your service," Jackson told fellow judges.

Importantly - if any law firm decides to continue gifting expert pro bono services to protect and effectuate the admin’s violence and destruction - this ruling means they’re doing it because they want to. Trump is legally toothless to punish them. Pro bono work provided is support, not compliance.

Trump's national security adviser Mike Waltz and his deputy are reportedly leaving their posts

✅ DEI Employer of the Day™ Hasbro, one of the largest makers toys, games, dolls Stephen Miller's group filed a federal complaint against Hasbro in 2023, alleging discrimination for its diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives (DEI) Hasbro now: Diversity, Equity and Inclusion: We’re committed

💥 BREAKING: Coca-Cola shareholders voted to reject two anti-DEI proposals at their annual meeting today both 99-1 percent. Proposal called DEI programs are 'so anti-American... neo-racist and neo-Marxist' Coke: Diversity, equity and inclusion play an important part in our company's success

Exactly 🙄 💥

I had to upload the clip here because it's frankly insane. Possibly the most insane trump clip yet. His brain is pudding

I don't know who needs to hear this, but EVERY FUCKING RETAILER needs to show the tariffs next to the price -- not just Amazon. Walmart, Target, ALL OF THEM. It's a fucking tax, why shouldn't we see it? I want to know exactly how much trump's tariffs are jacking my prices up. DON'T YOU?
