Bernie to Dems:

Same. #GoodTrouble

📹 Your lens = power: federal appellate courts (Glik v. Cunniffe + other cases) says you can legally film police in public. Keep your distance—blocking, interferring, or distracting cops can trigger obstruction charges and land you in cuffs. Capture evidence, stay safe, and record everything.

Alina Habba: parking lot lawyer extraordinaire and political persecutor not prosecutor

I support fighting this law suit by the new Gestapo. ktla.com/news/local-n...

NOT A SINGLE DEMOCRATIC SENATOR should confirm Emil Bove for the 3d Circuit Court of Appeals.

Budzinski: Families making over $700,000 a year will see a boost of $12,000 almost entirely from tax cuts. Shockingly, households making $23,000 a year or less are set to lose about $1600 a year, mostly due to deep cuts to Medicaid and food assistance

They’re going to spend enough money against this man in the general to buy a Roman Consularship

Okay, well if you can sue judges, who wants to file a lawsuit against Aileen Cannon with me?

Please don’t refer to this bill using the Republican propaganda name. Every time you use that name you further advance their propaganda goal. Words matter. Language shapes our world view. Don’t facilitate the spread of Republican propaganda.

Agreed!! Hey Gavin: Many of us don't think these ICE agents are legal. They may be bounty hunters. The way to find out is to arrest one. Charge him with kidnapping. Make him prove who he is. If he can't, take him to trial. Because this sh*t has got to stop.

People immediately pivoting to slot Lander into a progressive primary challenge are missing the implicit deal in the cross-endorsement: he's going to be deputy mayor, essentially COO of New York City. He's going to use his experience with the inner workings of government to help Mamdani deliver.

Don't get distracted. #ResistTrump

Phang: If you were scrolling on social media and saw a dog locked up in the middle of the Everglades—in the sun, in the heat, in the humidity—the outrage would be wild, wouldn’t it? But then—we’re okay with human beings being treated like that?

Domestic terrorist Chaya Raichik is endorsing Andrew Cuomo.

Public Service Announcement! 📣 People are impersonating ice to collect ice bounties ‼️⚠️🤨👇🏼

It's been so weird to watch a president learn things in real time when fielding a question from the press. Then, whatever word or concept he learns, he uses in the next few social media posts. It's like when a 3rd grader learns a new fact about dinosaurs.

WE SEE YOU People are watching and cellphone cameras are capturing the illicit activities and thuggery of our Gestapo

Ruiz: Why did the report include citations that don’t exist? RFK JR: All of the foundational assertions in that report are accurate Ruiz: How can they be accurate if they did not exist?

Trump’s illegal militarization of LA is causing California fire crews to operate at just 40% capacity, leaving communities vulnerable and at risk. Donald Trump, if you care about the safety of this country — the safety of Americans — you'll end this recklessness now.

Elvis Costello opens his L A show with “What’s so funny about peace, love and understanding?”

Jon Finer, one of the negotiators of the JCPoA: "To people who say, how can you trust Iran? You didn't have to trust Iran under [the JCPoA]. There were weapons inspectors... all over Iran's facilities, and they were saying right up until the minute that Trump pulled out that Iran was complying."

"Do you want America to be at war with Iran?" No: 85% Yes: 5% YouGov / June 22, 2025

Politicians hide themselves away. They only started the war. Why should they go out to fight? They leave that role to the poor. Time will tell on their power minds. Making war just for fun, Treating people just like pawns in chess, Wait 'till their judgment day comes... - Ozzy Osbourne, "War Pigs"

E. Jean Carroll’s new book is her refusal to let Donald Trump’s abuse define her It would be easy to read the book as a tragedy, but in the hands of Carroll, it feels hopeful. www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

The Democratic establishment throwing all its weight behind Andrew Cuomo shows how out of touch they are. They may have millions of dollars, countless ads, and endorsements from the NYT and Bloomberg—but we have something more powerful: the people. And the people want change. Don’t rank Cuomo.

We got Thom Walsh, a regulator for Vermont's health care system, to write about the way renamings and euphemisms and other tricks make it easier to slash Medicaid, as we're now seeing. prospect.org/politics/202...

Wallace: To hear him do his “bit” about it—it’s trivializing the gravest part of the job. And to think about him actually being in that capacity again, as the country’s only commander-in-chief? It’s tragic. It’s really one of the most tragic parts of having him back as president

He just dropped $280,000,000 worth of artillery in a war that’s not ours, but our grandparents have to live on Ramen noodles because America can’t afford Meals on Wheels anymore. Make it make sense.

I hate when I go to bed early on a Saturday night and wake up Sunday morning only to discover we’ve gone to war in the Middle East without the consent of Congress. 😡

“I Quit,” Haim’s new album, “is about submitting to the wild and mercurial whims of the universe—accepting that we can’t control when love comes, or when it goes,” Amanda Petrusich writes. “In a way, the album’s primary feeling is one of deep relief.”

Meanwhile, the federal government of the United States of America is hard at work hunting down and arresting random beloved local bagel shop managers. Neighbors and friends respond: pix11.com/news/local-n...

Rainy day record on deck:

AOC: “It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”

If Trump’s ambivalence for war feels familiar — Reminder: Trump ran in ‘16 as both for and against the Afghan war. As the war went on with American lives lost, Trump never committed to a strategy. Impulsively, he cut a sweetheart deal with the Taliban, setting 5000 free and got nothing in return.

If they refuse to identify themselves and show you a warrant, they’re kidnappers, regardless of who pays them. #Gestapo

Just a reminder going forward... (cartoon from 2003)

Tell it Bernie

We knew he was lying.
