If you missed it: Historian Michael Vorenberg joined @johnfugelsang.bsky.social and me on The Oath and The Office to unpack why the Civil War didn’t truly end at Appomattox and how authoritarian presidents abuse Lincoln's legacy. Video is now up: 🎧 [Link]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82CNvKOEDos

Pro Choice means trusting women to run their own lives. Control is the problem. Choice is the power. It’s not about what women choose — it’s about having the damn choice. #ProChoiceAF #BansOffOurBodies #EndTheWarOnWomen #SheShed

Unfortunately this is behind a paywall, but the headline tells the story. In Omaha, SNAP cuts will be catastrophic. The man representing Omaha - Republican Don Bacon of #NE02 - was the DECIDING VOTE for these very cuts. People need to know what their Reps have done. omaha.com/news/local/a...

A future for many of us … a very near future … an imminent future.

I am enjoying #TennisChannel showing French Open doubles play! Most times, grand slam broadcasts are singles only (too often men & American players as the focus IMO). It is a joy to watch my favorite players Paolini, Errani, Hsieh, & Mertens playing doubles. My cat, George, follows the action, too!

The use of inappropriate clothing and weaponry that makes them look more like military cosplay terrorists than actual government agents performing a garden-variety low-risk domestic police action is both intentional and incredibly dangerous.

“Fixing climate change is too expensive.” Um no. What’s really expensive is doing nothing. Climate disasters cost billions—and those costs are rising fast. Climate solutions save money and lives, as well as building a better world for us all 🌏💚

Realized I said unscrewed instead of uncrewed … I think it’s accurate the way it is. What do you think?

What did Don do to little marco, straight Nazi

This is a very big deal.👇 www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Let’s all do everything we can to support this truth telling candidate!!

Charlie Rangel was a Korean War hero, a great patriot, and true legend of New York. I was lucky enough to meet him and hear him tell his harrowing story of surviving that day in Kunu-Ri and how it shaped his life forever. There’s a poetry to his passing on Memorial Day.

Boom bitch 💥💥💥🤣👍

Memorial Day is when we honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

-A living wage -Guaranteed healthcare -The right to join a union -The right to vote -The right to choose when, how, and with whom you start a family -The right for you and your family to live free from gun violence These are the foundations of real freedom.

Trump is a dementia decayed sociopath and traitor. He is only a hero to stupid or corrupt people.

For those who sacrificed all, and the ones who will never forget them.

This hits hard.

Choose 20 albums that mean something to you. Choose albums that resonate with you, for whatever reason - ignore the snobs! • One album per day for 20 days, in no particular order. • No explanations, no reviews, just covers. Day 18

Sooo. Apparently that asshole has been using the threat of tariffs to extort countries into cutting massive deals with Felon’s companies. And why not? He got away with extortion last time thanks to Mitch McConnell and Merrick Garland.

I'm genuinely sorry that Fetterman had a stroke and suffers from depression. But arguing that he has a free pass not to do his job in the name of destigmatizing brain injury and mental health struggles is offensive. If he can't do it, he should resign. If he doesn't want to, he should resign faster.

📌The Cabinet of the United States of America is a collection of the worst, most incompetent morons in history, and we are supposed to just suffer through it as if it was just another cloudy day.

While giving tax breaks to billionaires.

Germany urges EU to step "out of its comfort zone" to ramp up sanctions on Russia The chief of staff to Germany’s new chancellor, Thorsten Frei, has called on Europe to step "out of our comfort zone" and impose tougher sanctions on Russia www.eurointegration.com.ua/eng/news/202...

@tmfab.bsky.social thank you for sharing this

Phang: It’s time for federal judges to acknowledge that they have lifetime appointments—and that should give them the courage to uphold the rule of law, but also to put some damn teeth into the court orders they’re issuing. it’s time that we start seeing action from the judiciary. Grow some balls

My last question of the day: What’s a must-see in NYC?

Frost: Tonight the people stealing are not folks with tattoos and hoodies but people wearing suits and ties and congressional pins sitting in the capitol now, not in some alley wrapped in darkness but the United States congress wrapped in the flag. It is disgusting and we will never forget this.

I'm a retired boomer. I cannot believe the state of our country. I cannot believe people are reduced to living in their cars, on the street, homeless. NOTHING is normal anymore. There is something fundamentally wrong, VERY wrong, with our country. I am so ashamed of what our country has become.

Grrrrrrr.....🤬🤬🤬 The year is irrelevant imo.

He’s not gonna like this.

As I predicted April 30, Chip voted for it. These guys all make lots of noise about debt and deficits, then vote to pile it on in record amounts.

There will be a death toll as a result of the MAGA budget. But it also marks the beginning of the end for Trumpism. Piling on national debt and forcing millions to suffer in order to feather the nests of billionaires will be political suicide for the GOP. www.thedailybeast.com/trumps-big-b...

Hold every single Republican responsible. From dog catcher to Senator. Every. Single. One.
