Says it all.

20 June 1942 | Driving a stolen SS car and wearing SS officers uniforms, four Polish prisoners escaped from #Auschwitz camp: Eugeniusz Bendera, Stanisław Gustaw Jaster, Józef Lempart oraz Kazimierz Piechowski. It was one of the most spectacular escapes from the German Nazi camp.

When masked unidentified thugs try to kidnap people, what the fuck do you expect? Especially when stories of fake ICE impersonators abound?!

* SENIOR IRANIAN OFFICIAL: THE ROLE OF EUROPEAN POWERS IS NOW MORE PROMINENT, AS TEHRAN IS UNWILLING TO ENGAGE WITH U.S. AMID ISRAELI ATTACKS @reuters.com

Any corporate executive who signs off on a bribe to Trump should be prepared to explain their crimes in front of Congress and to the public when Democrats retake power

Please tell me that you all realize that donald has long known the average news cycle, for crisis events, is 1 week before the media/ public moves on - and then he doubles that. You realize that’s where “in 2 weeks” comes from, right?

Today’s decision out of Rhode Island isn’t getting a lot of attention, but it’s very important. Trump tried to withhold fed’l funds from states that won’t help with his immigration policy & mass deportations. A Judge just told him he can’t do that. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Awful. As @peterbeinart.bsky.social notes, neither @schumer.senate.gov nor @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social have signed on to requiring Trump to get cong authorization for war with Iran. As I argued (see below) there should be a bipartisan coalition here. Where is it? www.nytimes.com/2025/06/20/o...

Trump's ICE raids mean Washington farmers cannot harvest this year's cherry crop, and that many will now go out of business. www.spokesman.com/stories/2025...

Sigh. Gifted. 🎁 For Trump, ‘Two Weeks’ Is the Magic Number www.nytimes.com/2025/06/19/w...

Here's a slightly expanded report from @chrisgeidner.bsky.social at Law Dork: substack.com/@chrisgeidne...

For now the narrow issue of a TRO is decided in Trump's favor - but even this appeals court that clearly favored Trump DOJ at oral argument ruled against Trump's claim that his authority was unreviewable by judiciary- deadline.com/2025/06/trum...

This conman is so full of shit!

Brava AOC! 🤞

if you don’t know the history of Dodger Stadium you can’t fully understand what unfolded today. thanks @chrislhayes.bsky.social for the opportunity to share it.

Reuters: US JUDGE BLOCKS TRUMP ADMINISTRATION FROM REQUIRING 20 DEMOCRATIC-LED STATES TO COOPERATE WITH IMMIGRATION ENFORCEMENT TO OBTAIN TRANSPORTATION GRANT FUNDING

What's in the Trump/GOP big, beautiful bill? -Tax cuts skewed to the rich -Medicaid & SNAP cuts -Ends IRS Direct File -New powers for Trump over the courts -Blocks state/local regulation against AI, including rent-gouging software like RealPage It's a big, ugly nightmare.

“You’ve turned the Pentagon into a dysfunctional mess. You are jeopardizing military operations and service members’ lives with your unprecedented action of texting classified military plans to anyone who might stroke your ego.” Sen. Hirono to Hegseth More: www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/obama-slam...

I've only ever felt the TACO critique was half right. To my eye, Trump's economic team has much more of a N.A.C.H.O. problem: Never Actually Completing Homework Obligations

If Trump focused on deporting violent criminals, there would be no disagreement or debate. But more than 90% of those detained by ICE in recent months have no serious criminal convictions.

federal agents at Dodger Stadium.

NBC's Jacob Soboroff is reporting live on scene at Dodger Stadium where protestors are gathering as Federal goons use the parking lot as some kind of staging area. Please show up to Gate E if you can, and let the Federal Kidnappers know they aren't welcome in L.A.

LA Times is reporting that Dodger Stadium is refusing the goons entry. Good. www.latimes.com/california/s...

Three people have died and more than a dozen others were sickened in an outbreak of listeria linked to premade chicken pasta meals sold at Walmart and Kroger stores, according to the CDC.

"We’re going to see security services deployed more and more against Dem elected officials," says @moiradonegan.bsky.social. The message: "To be a Dem official is an illegitimate position under his regime." On the pod, Donegan is brilliant on Trump-MAGA's true goals: newrepublic.com/article/1969...

Elon Musk said he was going to cut waste and save money yet he sets fire to millions of our dollars every time one of his SpaceX cockrockets to nowhere explodes. We’re never going to live on Mars because it’s a desolate wasteland. Our home is Earth. We should start acting like it.

Juneteenth calls us to understand the realities of our past, celebrate the resilience and achievements of Black Americans, and align the course of our country toward its founding creed of liberty and justice for all. Wishing everyone a meaningful Juneteenth!

M A G A has to be so confused! This is hilarious!
