Pete Hegseth has gotten the Pentagon to scrub a photo of a B-29 Superfortress ‘The Enola Gay’ (named for the pilot's mother). It was the plane that dropped a nuclear bomb on Japan, but the pilot's mother's name was "Gay." We are not just a country being run by bigots, we are one run by stupid ones.

Democracy is burning, and we need sites like Bluesky more than ever. And Senator Durbin wants to repeal 230, which would massively stifle the ability of sites like Bluesky to exist, while massively empowering X and Meta. Why? It seems that someone in his office doesn't understand 230.

AOC: It's really because Republicans— they’re very thin skinned and they're very sensitive, and their feelings are very easily hurt. And so they have to vote on censure resolutions.

BREAKING - Trump just said he doubts whether France or other NATO members would help America if we needed it. WRONG. The Article 5 mutual defense obligation has been invoked only ONCE in the 75 years of NATO. To help America. After 9/11. And our allies answered the call.

Trump fought the law, and the law won. His freeze on federal grants and loans has been blocked “indefinitely” to protect “the public interest” and “the distinct constitutional roles of each branch of our government.” He isn’t above Congress! So Congress must stop him. www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

Trump's in full retreat today as his poll numbers slip: He convened the cabinet to limit Elon after voters pressured Congress. He delayed the tariffs b/c the market dropped out & created fears of a recession. He's losing in court b/c DOGE didn't follow the law. Keep fighting.

NATO was created by the North Atlantic Treaty in 1949, approved by the Senate, 83 to 13, and signed into law. Under the Constitution, the president must "take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed." If Trump won't uphold the Treaty, he must be EXPELLED from office.

For the rest of my life, I will never understand how a country full of people busting their asses, working paycheck to paycheck, allow the fucking richest guy on Earth to call them "parasites" while calling the Social Security we contributed to our entire lives "a Ponzi scheme." Un-fucking-real.
