Tulsky: "It’s no surprise to us that Eric had his best professional season last year with Carolina. His size and speed make him an excellent fit for the way we want to play, and we are thrilled that he’s chosen to remain a Hurricane.”

What a deal

Can we get a little more attention to this story please? WH Personnel Chief "Gor, 38, is reportedly from Malta. However, an official there could not confirm his birthplace, and Gor declined to provide it to the Post besides to say it was not Russia" www.thedailybeast.com/trumps-vetti...

When you’re just grabbing brown people

Today has just been "We killed Chevron deference for a reason" day at the SCOTUS. And that reason, of course, was that the Republican justices want to destroy the environment and help tobacco companies.

What does ICE have to hide? The Department of Homeland Security has issued a new policy that allows ICE officials to block or cancel visits by members of Congress to immigration detention facilities, whenever they “deem it appropriate” or cite vague “operational concerns.”

Trump didn't do this by himself. He has the backing of America's wealthiest men, SCOTUS, Congress, the mainstream media, many of our largest corporations, etc. There has been large-scale betrayal.

AKA I don't actually regret it I just want people to stop asking me about it

NewsBreak: The former White House Nazi’s SpaceX explosion could be seen from Mars. In other news, it’s a metaphor for Trump’s plan for America.

Haula to the Preds you know what that means. Canes Preds 2026 SCF with the Canes winning book it.

Kristi Noem went to the hospital because she visited a recently closed infectious diseases lab with RFK Jr and God is sorry but that is funny as fuck.

Anyway, fuck the Panthers

The State Department is resuming student visa interviews and imposing strict social media rules, including a requirement that all applicants set their accounts to public to be scrutinized.

When ICE agents look like this, it is ENTIRELY APPROPRIATE for state and local law enforcement to step in and demand they identify themselves and show judicial warrants before detaining anyone from an immigration court. Democratic mayor and governors can take action on this.

There are no distractions. It's all bad. Systematically stripping trans people of their rights, guys in balaclavas shoving any brown person with a tattoo into a ummarked vans, ending healthcare for millions. It's all in service of fascism and technofeudalism. It's all one thing. That's the point.

If you haven't read Orwell or Bradbury, now's the time to do so. What DHS is doing w/ their latest Lander post is screaming Groupthink. It feels weirdly hyperbolic to write this, but believe your own eyes. Believe what we all saw. (Not screenshotting the post, because why help lies spread? 🤷‍♀️)

That dumb idea about annexing Canada… 🇨🇦

Holy fuck

Lately it’s that a lot of people are going to die in the next big disaster in the United States.

Reminder: Netanyahu's LIES helped lead the US into the Iraq war. Here he is testifying before Congress in 2002 saying Saddam Hussein is building nuclear weapons. www.vox.com/2015/2/26/81...

The claims that McIver, Padilla, and Lander were committing assault should make you question every other time LEOs claim assault or resisting arrest, if you weren’t already.

Arresting Comptroller Lander is despicable and another example of Trump weaponizing law enforcement to attack political enemies rather than focusing on public safety. DHS is flat-out lying in its statement. In the video, Comptroller Lander plainly does not lay a hand on anyone.

🚨🚨BREAKING TRUMP SAYS THE UNITED STATES IS NOW INVOLVED IN ISRAEL-IRAN WAR. "We now have complete and total control of the skies over Iran...Nobody does it better than the good ol’ USA."

"The bill directs what is likely the largest single sale of national public lands in modern history to help cut taxes for the richest people in the country....all without hearings, debate or public input." wilderness.org/articles/med...

Trump is sending ICE to blue cities to enact the "largest mass deportation program in history" and Chicago is at the top of the list. I'm calling for every Democratic leader and candidate to stand against ICE, to call for its abolition, and to materially support immigrants. Inaction is complicity.

The President does not have the authority to make this decision. There is no imminent threat to America from Iran. He cannot take this action without congressional authorization. I will not vote to give him that authority, and I likely represent the majority of Congress.

Trump rolls into the G7 summit complaining about how mean they are to Putin, trashes America on foreign soil, confused the EU with the UK, dropped papers on the ground, trashed Tucker Carlson, accomplished nothing, then bailed early to escalate a war. MAGA!

Trump is a Russian asset

Wtf

The stupidest people are in charge because we couldn’t prosecute a political crime because it would look too political.

GOV. WALZ: “This cannot be the norm. It cannot be the way we deal with our political differences.”

The roommate of Minnesota shooter Vance Boelter, responding to MAGA lies that he’s a Democrat: “He would be offended if people called him a Democrat,” he told CBS News, adding that Boelter “was a Trump supporter, voted for Trump,” and was happy Trump won the 2024 election.

It’s not just Mike Lee — Bernie Moreno is pretending that a registered Republican evangelical anti-abortion Trump voter who assassinated a Democrat and had more on his hit list is a representative of “the extreme left”

It's pretty obvious that a lot of US mainstream media either doesn't recognise authoritarianism or doesn't want to call it out. Either way, it's an excellent way to destroy trust in your institution.

‼️🚨Over 100 missiles were launched from Iran, making impacts in "Petah Tikvah," "Tel Aviv," Haifa, and "Eilat." t.me/PalestineRes...

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

Trump is now directing ICE to focus on Democratic-led cities such as Los Angeles, Chicago and New York:

Trump has opened up Pandora's Box in the Middle East and doesn't know how to close it.

Trey Yingst: Waiting to post more information at this point, but there will be a significant development to report in the hours ahead about the last missile barrage.

What a finish to the US Open, insane putt! #USOpen

Question: When are we going to call the white man who clearly plotted and schemed an act of violence, and shot two Minnesota law makers and their spouses out of political hatred a terrorist?

Honestly I still can’t stop laughing 😂😅🤣

Based on crowd-sourced records of No Kings Day event turnout, and extrapolating for the cities where we don't have data yet, it looks like roughly 4-6 million people protested Trump across the U.S. yesterday. That's nearly 2% of the U.S. pop! Mobilized anti-Trump resistance is exceeding 2017 levels
