Rs may not be able to pass anything ever now and may in fact end up shutting down the very same government they have total control of when the debt ceiling deadline hits in Sept. 😃

As I predicted, we are now entering an era where we cannot necessarily trust data coming from the federal govt on things like inflation. Something to watch VERY closely for GDP, unemployment, everything. www.wsj.com/economy/cpi-...

Jasmine Crockett is running to be Ranking Member on Oversight — and ready for the fight. She’s sharp, qualified, and speaking directly to this moment. Watch her make the case — and check out her take on the seniority issue. It might surprise you. @repjasmine.bsky.social

Why is the American president repeating Russian threats without comment?

This morning, Democrats tried to subpoena Elon Musk so he could answer to the American people. But instead of standing with us, Republicans spent about 30 minutes scrambling to shut down debate and protect their favorite billionaire.

For @thenation.com, I wrote about Alice Driver’s book, The Death and Life of the American Worker, about Mexican and Central immigrant organizing in the poultry processing plants of Arkansas—an important contribution to US labor journalism: www.thenation.com/article/cult...

This type of data base that can build a surveillance state should be of concern for every American.

@thetennisletter.bsky.social Really disappointed with Rublev coach Marat Safin. His demeanor during the Sinner Rublev match was so disrespectful

@tennisupdates.bsky.social What’s up with Marat Safin? How disrespectful he is during the Sinner- Rublev match. Wow, kick him to the curb

Yup.

I love etymology.

While Stephen Miller publishes the faces of the judges that struck down Trump’s unlawful tariffs, his own goons in ICE refuse to show theirs out of fear of being publicly identified. If our judges are brave enough to face MAGA threats with their faces showing, ICE should not hide behind masks.

If the shoe fits…

I just think there needs to be more attention paid to the uniquely creepy, mendacious, awfulness of Speaker Mike Johnson. Don’t underestimate the depth of his ambition and breadth of what he is willing to do to never return to Shreveport.

Wow. Avelo airlines has covered up their logo to hide the fact that they're helping with mass deportation. Avelo's customer service number is (346) 616-9500. Feel free to give them a call and tell them how you feel about them.

If someone isn’t parking a TACO food truck outside the White House, what are we even doing with this stupid timeline!?

Dear Mr. President: Maybe if you stopped doing stuff that is so obviously, flagrantly illegal, and listened to real lawyers instead of MAGA stooges, you wouldn’t be constantly getting your ass kicked so badly in court. Just a thought.

Whoever made this deserves a medal.

Genius! I will be watching

I heard "TACO DON" got mad today. Did someone say 'chicken '?

Pope Leo: “Ceasefire now! From the Gaza Strip we hear rising ever more insistently to the heavens, the cries of mothers and fathers who clutch the lifeless bodies of their children and who are continually forced to move about in search of a little food and water and safer shelter from bombardments.”

One of these things is not like the other.

Two extremely intriguing new energy laws out of Maryland! The first would force data centers who want to interconnect to pay for the grid upgrades they need; the second prohibits local communities from banning solar installations. Good shit. Pod on it here:

This seat is open because asshole Democrats in the Senate wouldn’t confirm Biden’s pick for the 3rd Circuit because Biden’s pick was Muslim and did pro bono work for Muslim clients.

Not a coincidence.

The reason Apple manufactures in China is b/c of YEARS of investment in vocational training there. Any effort to bring these industries onshore STARTS WITH INVESTING IN OUR EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM. And it will take YEARS. It’s not about tiny hands (so stupid). Here’s Apple CEO Tim Cook

THANK YOU!!!

New Pete Buttigieg interview just dropped. www.youtube.com/watch?v=giZt...

“Can we go outside and play now?” “Soon, boy.” “You said that ten minutes ago.” “As soon as I finish my cof-“ “Oops.” “You did that on purpose.” “It slipped.” “I’ll get my coat.” “Excellent.”
