“No! Mis hijos estan en La escuela! (My kids are in school!) Por favor!” Tennessee’s @davidwontshutup.bsky.social on a very difficult video to watch of ICE grabbing a mother outside immigration court in Texas.

The passage of the FY26 balanced budget is a testament to Illinois’ fiscal responsibility. Even in the face of Trump stalling the national economy, we're delivering for working families without raising their taxes — and while protecting progress for long-term fiscal health.

Penzey's Spices have an offer on this weekend.

This was today… Sotally tober… NYT clearly way off base…

BROWN: Is this administration committed to following the court rulings and the legal process? STEPHEN MILLER: We are committed to following and obeying the laws of the United States (so, no)

its crazy how dominant germany was in science (especially chemistry) in the 19th century, it was basically the international language for scientists, people came from all over the world to train at heidelberg etc, and then....

A new PDB could include not only graphics and pictures but also maps with animated representations of exploding bombs, similar to a video game, another one of the people with knowledge of the discussions said. www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...

“Musk leaves the government worse off than he found it. His tenure in Washington was a complete failure substantively and politically—and to his own reputation and companies,” says Chris Hayes.

Making up "scientific studies" to further prove your conspiracy theories is disqualifying. RFK must resign.

We've been calling for Congress to do its job and conduct oversight of the corruption stemming from Donald Trump's business interests, including his dinner for top investors in his meme coin. Good for Congressman Raskin for investigating, as well as those Senators who called for a list of attendees.

Oh there goes his ratings

Pete Buttigieg on tiktok answering the question: Will we ever recover from this?

Trump runs the most corrupt administration in history and hardworking families deserve to know how his corruption impacts them — which is why ECU President @tiffanymuller.bsky.social, @bennet.senate.gov , and Jon Tester put on this town hall! Thank you to everyone who came out!

Elon Musk installed his henchman, Antonio Gracias, at Social Security. Gracias is a private equity billionaire who wants to destroy our Social Security system. @alaw202.bsky.social

I am from Michigan, near the town where these men were going to blow up the bridge between her house and the nearest hospital with a trauma center, so when they hurt her she would not be able to get there. These losers are broken by her strength and upending of the patriarchy. Pardon? Egads.

"It's important and courageous for Springsteen to rebuke Trump, particularly when so many people in positions of power are busy kowtowing to him." — Jennifer Palmieri

Great essay. The NYT should remove the paywall. Every American should read it. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/29/o...

The cuts in the GOP bill were authored by congressmembers who not only attended college, but in many cases went to Ivy League schools and hold advanced degrees. https://trib.al/Qy2d1Nd

Today’s hero who tossed out the TACO bomb! 👏👏

I’m thinking InfoWars.

Donald Trump's policies are cruel and harmful. They're also insulting, to his opponents and supporters alike. His actions and claims insult the intelligence of the American people - and our shared values.

Today the Supreme Court cleared the way for the federal government to transfer thousands of acres of national forestland including a Native American sacred site, to Resolution Copper a mining company owned by Rio Tinto and BHP. The land holds deep spiritual significance for the Western Apache tribe.

Without giving consumers a heads up, NorthWestern Energy on Friday said it will increase electricity rates for consumers by $204 a year, without review from Montana’s utility regulator.

In a major step in the right direction for consumer rights, Senator Duckworth and I announced that our bill to strengthen consumer protections against fraud involving residential moving companies passed out of Senate committee.   Statement: bit.ly/43MHimu

Phang: We don’t need the Ten Commandments hanging in Texas schools. What we need is common-sense gun legislation—so the kids can live. If my kid goes to a public school in Texas and they can’t come home alive, I don’t give a shit about the Ten Commandments being posted on the wall.

I am stunned to hear seniors on the radio who are so out of touch with what is happening with their health care. I know I shouldn't be. Someone needs to make another Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure with the current state of affairs. The internet of lies would be an interesting addition.

Not sure if democracy remains on the docket? My law firm is litigating 53 voting and election cases in 22 states. When we fight, we win.

So if Trump had run on the promises of manipulating the global economy with wild tariff threats (that he planned to always retract to some lower number) and eliminating medicaid, would he have won?
