this court says that allowing EPA to regulate carbon emissions is a "major question" that demands congressional debate. but allowing the president to, with a flick of the wrist, end a straightforward constitutional right is something that must be allowed to stand?

So am I reading this court decision correctly? We now have 50 micronations with their own laws interpreting the U.S. Constitution wholly separate from one another? But there's one guy with private law enforcement who is immune from all punishment who can do whatever he wants in those 50 states?

Floating around with mum!

tired: 'Big Balls' out WIRED: 'Big Balls' is back and now at the Social Security Administration, we have learned from a White House official. SCOOP:

Jasmine Crockett with the real talk!

he's right and he's right to say it

Speaking from the cusp of the vaccination generation, Please vaccinate your children! My earliest memory is the terrible pain of coughing up my lungs and not getting air, while my mama cried and held me. Pertussis. Having measles was torture. High fever, swollen itchy skin, thirst. Vaccinate.

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security.    Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.   Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Jeff Bezos is worth $230 billion and is reportedly spending $20 million on a three-day wedding in Venice while sailing around on his $500 million yacht. If he can afford to do that, he can afford a wealth tax and to pay Amazon workers a living wage. Hello?

🤬🤬 F*CK the Supreme Court!! This decision is horrific beyond words!!’

This image is now absolutely everywhere over European media lmao

‘A very unfun treasure hunt’: Ohio lawmakers hide behind anonymous budget amendments It's become a tradition for Ohio lawmakers to use anonymous budget amendments to pass controversial policies without facing public scrutiny. by Jeremy Pelzer www.cleveland.com/news/2025/06...

He just dropped $280,000,000 worth of artillery in a war that’s not ours, but our grandparents have to live on Ramen noodles because America can’t afford Meals on Wheels anymore. Make it make sense.

apnews.com/article/migr... The fucking inhumanity and torture theyre putting families through. Tomorrow I'll try and add context from the article. After Iran and reading this, I'm good for the night. Need to decompress and reset. Fight continues tomorrow.

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people: 1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money 3) We won’t need a lot of troops 4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq 5) We’ll find WMDs 6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators 7) It will be easy 8) It won’t take long All lies.

EXCLUSIVE — The Onion has a full-page ad in today’s NYT featuring part of an editorial calling out congressional fecklessness towards Trump. They also sent a copy of their latest issue to every lawmaker. My report, with an excerpt from the full editorial: www.thehandbasket.co/p/exclusive-...

in case you missed my stream on this - I'm about to have a baby and recently turned down a $5000+ AI company sponsorship. trying to spin a negative into a positive, I am now fundraising that amount with my community instead alongside some fun content stretch goals. support appreciated!

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers. Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they? Hello?

Hours after @pbump.com posted this today, ICE updated its figure to 500%.

The conservative movement is lying about basically every empirical "debate" of our time, from climate change to voter fraud to vaccines. Why is it so impossible for reactionary centrists to contemplate the possibility they're lying about trans healthcare too?

It's easy to forget now but we had decades of steady advancement on trans rights. The 2016 bathroom bills invited huge backlash! It was only after the media constructed sports and youth medications as 'debates' that opposition moved from the far right to the polite center.

ICE agents are out here manhandling elected officials—yet again. They arrested NYC Comptroller Brad Lander for asking if they had a warrant—which is his constitutional right. (1/2)

The Trump VA is now allowing healthcare providers to discriminate. The latest in yet another policy based on hate. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

I’m Kat Abughazaleh and I approve this message.

From a dear comrade who was kind enough to let me share their video. Veterans stage a sit-in on the US Capitol steps and say, “Military off our streets!” Hell yeah!

I don't think people understand how many high level government employees have been getting paid for months not to work. It's an enormous number. For efficiency, or something.

"Even if it went to the point of setting a car on fire, that's not a domestic insurrection. That's a protest that is engaged in some illegality. And we have civil means to punish it without the armed forces.”

New Yorkers scream out each officer’s lawsuits against them for excessive force and more upon their city, right to their faces while protesting.

Durbin to Bhattacharya: "I can't understand it. I disagree w/ this admin on so many things. But this is the one that really gets to me personally. To think this nation would walk away from medical research. For God's sake...cancer, your budget requests a 38% cut to the National Cancer Institute"

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

"Violence is never the solution"

An LAPD helicopter claimed to have ID'ed protesters from above and threatened to "come to your house." The threat was greeted with extreme concern by civil liberties and digital privacy groups. It suggests the LAPD could be using facial recognition to identify and retaliate against protesters.
