A government ban on Hungary’s Pride parade backfired Saturday as over 100,000 people marched through Budapest, far more than usual PM Viktor Orban warned people to stay away, threatening “clear legal consequences.” But the warnings only turned a modest event into a mass rally against his government

Reminder: They’re afraid of Zohran because he’s better at this than they are. He is putting the people first, and it reminds them of their own failings.

Dozens of Marines are now patrolling the border near Campo, California. Not just in support roles, but shoulder to shoulder with Border Patrol. A direct challenge to the Posse Comitatus Act, which bans the military from civilian law enforcement.

When ordinary Republicans understand how Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill” would affect the after-tax incomes of American families, it turns out they don’t find it beautiful at all. “I was really shocked."

The last 50 years have been a sickening catastrophe for the working class and have created another class of people who really do think they’re better than everyone else. There is an obvious cure. https://trib.al/UNbnETF

New Column: Here's exactly how cruel and deliberate the big ugly bill is--and how there's a very easy fix to make it less cruel that Republicans will never, ever, ever consider. newrepublic.com/post/197356/... via @newrepublic.com

The GOP Tax Scam would rip healthcare away from over 16 million people, to hand massive tax breaks to billionaires. If your senator is a Republican, contact them now and demand they put families first, not billionaires. act.indivisible.org/...

Finally a corporation is reacting to what’s happening here. Don’t be surprised that it’s not a car company or a shampoo brand. They’re all still pretending that life is normal. It’s a bookstore. Barnes and Noble fills their store display windows with Orwell’s 1984 and Atwood’s Handmaid’s Tale.

Since May: Federal district courts have ruled against Trump admin 94% of the time. Supreme Court has sided with the Trump admin 94% of the time. A judiciary at war with itself.

Brilliant. 10/10. No notes.

Most churches, like most schools, run on the unpaid labor of women…

When Republican voters learn that the "Big Beautiful Bill" takes from the poor to give to the rich, they oppose it.

A huge blow was dealt to hurricane forecasters this week as a critical tool was abruptly terminated by the Department of Defense and NOAA. The immediate discontinuation of data from three weather satellites will severely impact hurricane forecasts this season and beyond. More ⬇️

This is my shocked face🙄

Logistics Events Corp. and U.S. Tent Rental, two businesses out of Florida, have been hired to help build Alligator Alcatraz. An inhumane concentration camp being built for innocent immigrants. You decide what to do next.

If you’re zip-tying grandmas protesting losing health care maybe you’re not the good guys in the story?

My walk today... #joy #ShelbyPark

Does it surprise you that members of Congress are buying Palantir stock, the company that happens to be helping ICE with mass deportations? The latest Press Pass from @cheetah.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/stock-trad...

He knew the court would order the planes turned around, and told his DoJ lawyers to tell the court to fuck off. This letter has already shown up in the South Sudan DVD case in a motion filed by the Plaintiffs at SCOTUS today.

They’re lying about Medicaid cuts. They’re lying about the deficit increase. They’re lying about what they accomplished in Iran. They lie about everything. It is just a nonstop torrent of lies intended to flood the zone with propaganda.

On June 14, when a gunman murdered Minnesota Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband, I watched as political leaders from other states denounced violence and held moments of silence for Hortman. In Tennessee? Not so much. My column for @tennesseelookout.com.

My walk this morning...

This is oligarchy. This is obscene. While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%. End this oligarchy.

If you need a mask to enforce the law, you don’t deserve a badge. Federal agents are snatching people off the streets—faces covered, names hidden. This isn’t safety. It’s secrecy. It’s not America. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/why-are-fe...

WE TOLD YOU, JOE. Tr*mp and Project 2025 have been completely yea spent about how cruel and horrible they are. If you're horrified, use your platform and your $$$$ to work to undo the damage you have done to this nation and our immigrant neighbors. You're complicit in this, so fight to fix it.

Brownshirt ICE rolled up to my local Home Depot today and got the F-off treatment. Shoutout to this woman because this is exactly how it’s done. No badge, face covered = F*ck all the way off. 📌 It’s on us citizens to stand up for our vulnerable brothers and sisters.

Thanks to all 66 donors that have helped us reach 64% of our goal! As an action council of @tnadvocatesforpp.bsky.social, we face some of the challenges that come with the threat of being defunded by the federal government. Donate to help us keep growing! www.eastnashtivists.org/donate

NEW: A review by @citizensforethics.org finds that cuts by DOGE not only cost tens of thousands of jobs, but also could result in the loss of over $10 billion in US-based economic activity and the closing of programs that have put $26 billion of funds back into taxpayers' pockets.

The United States never has enough money to keep people alive at home but always has enough money to kill people overseas.
