If one person claims it's raining and another insists it's sunny, the media's job isn't to give them equal airtime-it's to check the facts and report the truth.

🚨BREAKING: Maine court rejects right wing lawsuit challenging the wording of anti-voting ballot question. A big victory for our clients DSCC, DCCC, DGA and the voters of Maine. www.democracydocket.com/cases/maine-...

I encourage everyone to consider attending one of the many demonstrations planned for tomorrow across the country. Show up. Demand accountability. Peacefully protest. Find the rally closest to you: NoKings.org

You think he’s gonna let war in the Middle East make him miss Fox and Friends? Psh

What an embarrassment

5-10 impacts from the first wave of Iranian missiles. I saw a video with multiple impacts, and would expect this number to go up. No reported casualties so far, but it’s early. Status of Israeli air defenses is also unclear - reloads take time. Next wave could be worse.

Scoop: Threat intelligence reports obtained by WIRED and @propertyofthepeople.org show military and state-run fusion centers are tracking civilian-made ICE encounter maps, while others distribute "threat" alerts about tomorrow's "No Kings" protests. By me @wired.com (free to read):

Remember that authoritarians are always trying to create crises or take advantage of existing crises as a "state of exception," which gives them more power and abrogates any established restraints.

The director of the National Portrait Gallery has resigned from her post, according to a memo sent to Smithsonian employees and obtained by CNN.

Interesting. Polls are showing American voters don’t like the idea of being under military occupation by a wildly angry game show host for no reason www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

They should follow their oath to the Constitution and refuse to be deployed.

Who else nearly fell out of the seat when you heard Cosplay Kristi accuse Sen. Padilla of “political theater”?

I’m sure Noem’s husband has nothing to worry about with Corey and Kristi doing road trips together.

Guess who was right in the thick of the assault on @padilla.senate.gov? Corey Lewandowski. (He may have been the guy instructing that there's no recording at a press conference and seems to have realized how badly they fucked up.)

NEW: 12 masked armed men try to enter a homeless shelter without saying who they are. ICE agents park outside an elementary school, sparking fear and a car accident. Local police respond to a call about a possible assault, only to find ICE. Inside one day on LI: theintercept.com/2025/06/13/i...

This is a United States Senator trying to ask questions of a Cabinet Secretary in an open public briefing—and he is violently removed. Whatever your political views, we are in a gravely serious and dangerous moment.

“I don’t know how I survived.” The sole survivor of Air India Flight 171, Britain’s Viswashkumar Ramesh, walked away from the crash, while more than 200 others died.

Yesterday: Trump scared to death of action against Iran. <Iran a paper tiger getting bagged on the head by Israel> Today: Trump takes credit like it was him the whole time. MAGA: “So brave”

Newsom: "This is what he does. He creates a problem and then he tries to be a hero in his own Marvel movie ... he initiated those raids. He significantly increased the scale and scope of those raids. That's why he wants the National Guard."

@therickwilson.bsky.social: If a US Senator is not safe from being handcuffed and detained for free speech, none of us are safe. WATCH: youtube.com/watch?v=cEqM...

Newsom: "Speaker Johnson -- his eloquence was elevated when he called to 'tar and feather' the governor of California. Very religious man. I guess that's the spirit. The word of the Lord."

A federal judge has ruled that dictator-wannabe Trump illegally called-in the National Guard to Los Angeles, California. Judge Breyer has ordered that control of the Guard be returned to Gov. Gavin Newsom. 🙌🙏💪👏🇺🇸👇

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.

Booker: He was made to kneel before the authority of the executive… They treated a member of the United States senate violently after he identified himself, dragged him out of a room, threw him upon the ground, and put him in handcuffs

According to its policy on “objectivity” that it cited in firing Terry Moran, ABC News would also have fired Walter Cronkite.

Same here.

More chaos at home. More wars abroad. This Trump regime is an international disaster.

hey, remember when Jared Kushner brought peace to the Middle East? me neither

Republicans will claim Padilla — one of the kindest people I know — is a menacing man who stormed the briefing with smoke coming out of his ears. But the video doesn't lie. He didn’t lunge. He announced himself. He just wanted answers.

Who’s winning in this economy right now? Warren Buffett: “The rich — guy’s like me.”

So Kristi Noem goes on Fox and lies that Sen Padilla didn’t ID himself, even though the video is there for all to see. But get what she’s saying: Assaulting and handcuffing someone for trying to ask a question is OK in any case? This is a criminal regime.

The GDP of the Los Angeles metropolitan area is eighteen times as large as the GDP of Noem's home state of South Dakota, but sure, L.A. is "socialist." www.statista.com/statistics/1... usafacts.org/answers/what...

"To Mr. Cuomo, I've never had to resign in disgrace. I've never cut Medicaid. I have never stolen hundreds of millions of dollars from the MTA. I have never hounded the thirteen women who credibly accused me of sexual harassment. I have never sued for their gynecological records." - Zohran just now.

clearly to blow up the nuke talks, total slap at Trump: "Netanyahu said Israel had acted to stop Iran “buying for time” amid ongoing talks with the United States." throwing in praise for Trump designed to assuage his ego but the ACTION is an FU to US

Sen. Alex Padilla: "If this is how this DHS responds to a senator with a question, I can only imagine what they're doing to farmers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California and throughout the country. We will hold this administration accountable."
