NYC friends — If you voted for Cuomo because you said he would be the best choice to stand up to Trump… and now you’re supporting Eric Adams, who is in Trump’s pocket… it might be time to rethink some things. Trump controls Adams. A vote for Adams is a vote for Trump.

Breaking: An organization representing immigrants fighting Trump's birthright citizenship order just recalibrated its legal strategy. CASA Inc. is asking a federal judge for an emergency block on Trump's policy and says it has refiled its broader lawsuit as a class action case.

California Democratic political operative detained at the airport after returning from family vacation in Turks and Caicos. “If we’re in a country where packing an Obama T-shirt makes you nervous at the border, what kind of America are we living in?”

Stripping birthright citizenship from people born in this country goes against rights guaranteed in the Constitution. We must stand against unconstitutional actions and stand up for the fundamental rights granted to people in the United States of America.

Scratch UVA off the list of schools I will recommend my kids attend.

It was 1865. I don't think the average person needs to necessarily remember every important historical date but the year the Civil War ended is one of those the U.S. president should definitely know.

Bondi just said DHS is helping rid us of criminals from the Sinaloa Cartel, but she failed to mention the asylum she gave to family members of the Sinaloa Cartel. She also said we're ridding the country of MS-13, but failed to mention the asylum she's giving to MS-13 leaders in the Abrego case.

"Corrupt" doesn't begin to cover it. "Today, the Supreme Court instructed district courts to STOP the endless barrage of nationwide injunctions against President Trump," Bondi wrote. She added that the Department of Justice would "continue to zealously defend" Trump's policies." | -Newsweek

Raskin: "If you can opt out of mandatory classroom readings bc it offends your religious objections, you can do it bc it offends your philosophical beliefs... you're gonna have a lot of cases where ppl say 'Our family doesn't believe in evolution. We don't want our kid in class when it's taught'"

🚨NEW: The Trump admin moves to terminate Temporary Protected Status for HALF A MILLION Haitians, claiming despite all reality that Haiti is a safe country to return to — even though large portions of the country are ruled by vicious gangs and civil governance has collapsed.

Breaking News: The University of Virginia president, James E. Ryan, is said to have resigned under pressure from the Trump administration over DEI. nyti.ms/4npkLUK

University of Virginia President James Ryan has resigned under pressure from Trump because the college had a diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) program and the board feared the school could lose millions of dollars in federal funding if he stayed.

The lawsuit, seeking more than $787 million and filed in Delaware Superior Court, claims that Fox "operates as a propaganda machine for President Trump’s radical right-wing agenda," citing the nearly $800-million settlement the network reached with Dominion. www.nbcnews.com/politics/pol...

BREAKING: UVA president resigns under pressure from Trump administration over DEI policies

Trump on Ayatollah Ali Khamenei of Iran: "I SAVED HIM FROM A VERY UGLY AND IGNOMINIOUS DEATH"

Milwaukee Journal Sentinel: Signs at Apostle Islands ask visitors to look out for anti-American views Critics of the signs say the history that is interwoven in our national parks should be told truthfully, not through a political filter. www.jsonline.com/story/news/l...

This outrageous decision on birthright citizenship (even limited as it is) sets a horrible precedent. The next Dem President should be formulating Exec Orders addressing gun sales, abortion rights and my own fave “corporate personhood,”… @meidastouch.com @muellershewrote.com @tribelaw.bsky.social

Justice Roberts' legacy will be destroying the reputation of the Supreme Court and allowing it to be used as a vehicle for repression. The conservatives are ensuring the majority lose all faith in the institution. People won't sit back and take this forever.

Ooh, did Ron show Mr. Fox Comfy Couch where they'll put the "Arbeit macht frei" signs?

This should send a chill down the spine of every American. Birthright citizenship was added to the Constitution at the end of the Civil War. It’s a basic idea: when you’re born in America, you’re an American. That’s what Trump is trying to take away.

I’ll explain on CNN ~7:20 PM est & on MSNBC ~10 PM why Trump’s claim that he WON today’s decision about birthright citizenship is a LIE — but how the 6-3 majority BETRAYED OUR COUNTRY by giving Trump and any future president license to trash the laws and Constitution of the U.S.

"Things could be worse. They’d be worse if the American people were enthusiastically supporting Trump’s actions. But they’re not." Where are the elites? Today's Morning Shots from @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social and @eggerdc.bsky.social:

WATCH: “Are they not seeing what we’re seeing? This moonscape? Thousands killed? Children starved?” Clarissa Ward tells Colbert 🇮🇱 actions in Gaza with 🇺🇸 support has eroded trust in international law in the Middle East, and in any notion we’re a “guiding light” for human rights

New at @atrupar.com's Public Notice: Trump’s masked immigration agents are terrorizing American streets. In Los Angeles and elsewhere, citizens are standing up against them, leading to tense altercations as summer heats up. www.publicnotice.co/p/trump-secr...

DESANTIS: “You’ll have an ability for food. You’ll have an ability to consult legal rights - if you have that.” History has seen this darkness before. But this is the first time it has been broadcast live.

I think Jack is correct.

Attorneys are pleading for the release from immigration detention of a 6-year-old boy treated for cancer of the blood and bone marrow, who is being held in Texas with his mother and sibling.

Former U.S. Rep. Carolyn McCarthy, who successfully ran for Congress in 1996 as a crusader for gun control after a mass shooting on a New York commuter train left her husband dead and her son severely wounded, has died. She was 81.

Kenneth Chesebro, a former legal adviser for Donald Trump's 2020 presidential campaign, is now barred from practicing law in New York over his role in a scheme to overturn Trump's election loss five years ago.

The number of Kenyans who died during Wednesday’s nationwide protests over police brutality and bad governance has doubled to 16, according to the state-funded human rights commission.

If you're a veteran who has been charged a fee to get help on your application for a VA disability rating or other benefits, NPR wants to hear from you!

A mother and her two young kids are fighting for their release from a Texas immigration detention center in what is believed to be the first lawsuit involving children challenging the Trump administration’s policy on immigrant arrests at courthouses.

President Trump's financial disclosure shows more than $630 million in income from 2024 including tens of millions from cryptocurrency and Trump-branded products touted on the campaign trail.

You’ve seen this movie before: Maybe Reagan guessed, Bush hoped, and Trump tried—but tax cuts never paid for themselves. Given the mountain of evidence, claiming once again that "tax cuts will pay for themselves" is no longer ideologically motivated optimism. It's a lie.

Yes there are millions of people who buy in to white Christian nationalism and some have shown how to turn it into very profitable businesses, but at its core is ignorance, racism, fear, insecurity, and perversion of the teachings of Jesus.
