Happiest day ever ❤️

A beautiful night for outdoor music in MKE

A beautiful night for outdoor music in MKE.

Melania Trump worked as a model, "and when I say, 'model,' I'm not talking about Tyra Banks, Cindy Crawford, or Naomi Campbell-level," she quipped.

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

Our ONE good “ export “

James Prime, the co-founder and keyboardist for the internationally beloved band Deacon Blue, has died

Members of Congress are being denied access to an ICE facility in Manhattan, because the conditions inside are that bad.

Female CEOs leap over higher hurdles, yet men still hog the top rung. A damning report shows women pack 32% more prez experience, but only snag 10% of S&P 500 thrones. Glass ceilings aren't cracked; they're reinforced by suits betting on unproven potential.

If you think it can’t happen here, remember that it already did. In 1942 soldiers came with rifles to our home and ordered us out. They put us in internment camps. Most of us were citizens.

The Los Angeles Dodgers announced today that the organization will donate $1 million to immigrant families impacted by recent raids.

it is funny how many people affiliated with the secret police have had to say "stop making fun of the secret police, the guy in the tac vest that covers him like a training bra is a hero, he tracked down and subdued two hospice orderlies using only the W-2 forms they file annually"

Here were the top songs on the Billboard Hot 100 on this day in 1980: 1. "Funkytown" - Lipps Inc. 2. "Coming Up" - Paul McCartney 3. "Biggest Part Of Me" - Ambrosia 4. "The Rose" - Bette Midler 5. "Against The Wind" - Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band musicchartsarchive.com/singles-chart/…

“So far, the agency’s leaders have expressed interest in rolling back regulations around ‘forever chemicals,’ or PFAS; reversing a cornerstone finding that greenhouse gases are dangerous for public health; and weakening enforcement of coal ash regulations.”

Utah voters: Are these really your values? Mike Lee is the best you can do?

"The song 'Barracuda' by Heart was played without permission or authorization from us."

Yeah. WTF?

Just another morning in Milwaukee.

Yes!

ICE in L.A. just received a delivery of weapons from the military, via Blackhawk helicopter. Be safe. Stay home tonight. Tomorrow is another day to show up and peacefully protest #UnmaskICE #NoMartialLaw

At ~6:15 p.m. tonight the Los Angeles City Attorney sent out a statement on the ICE raids. "The dangerous escalation of the tactics being used across Los Angeles undermines trust between our immigrant communities and government, and makes us all less safe." cityattorney.lacity.gov/updates/la-c...

"A U.S. marshal was mistakenly detained by [ICE]...The deputy marshal was briefly detained in the lobby of a federal building in Tucson because he 'fit the general description of a subject being sought by ICE'” <Insert Family Guy skin color meme> www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

So, if the LAPD admits the protests were peaceful, why do we need the Nat'l Guard? ICE brings violence wherever they go. ICE escalates violence, and brutalizes and terrorizes unarmed decent people in Tr*mp's America.

A little Star Wars humor 😂 this cracked me up! @markhamillofficial.bsky.social

Such simple, beautiful social housing. One main material used externally, no set backs, simple form and generousity of external space (just look at that balcony!) 21 apartments in Lyon by Rue Royale Architects and Claire Tournier

I asked New Mexicans what they would say to someone trying to sell off our public lands. Swipe to see what they said. Their message is loud and clear, keep public lands public. I’m making sure it’s heard in Washington.

Booker: "We have a president who did nothing as people stormed our Capitol, & then when those people who viciously beat police & led to some of their deaths - therefore cop killers - were convicted, he pardoned them. So for him to be talking about responsive law enforcement is hypocritical at best"

DEVELOPING: No warning. No reason. NYPD officers rushed into the crowd and tackled a protester this weekend. His body was limp. He couldn’t move. He said, “I can’t feel my legs.” He might never walk again. For showing up. This is brutality. This is America.

I don’t care if you’re black, white, brown, yellow, purple - at the end of the day there’s only ONE race and that’s the human race. BE HUMAN. Practice humanity.

That’s the question: How does dtrump not have a basic understanding of math?

Why Would Trump Gut FEMA and NOAA? url:https://prospect.org/blogs-and-newsletters/tap/2025-06-04-why-would-trump-gut-fema-and-noaa/ That is the question.

June is #NationalIcedTeaMonth Love it with lots of lemon 🍋 😜 I hope you have a wonderful day 💙✌️😎

Pete Hesgeth — who wants to rename the Navy ship that honors Medgar Evers, a WWII veteran who landed on Omaha Beach — is using that same beach for a photo op in which he promises we will “never forget” the veterans there. What an unbelievable asshole.

Undocumented immigrants pay almost $100 billion in taxes each year. The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes each year. Stop pretending that immigrants are the ones taking advantage of taxpayers.

At the ICE raid and subsequent community resistance in Paramount, California this morning, this skater kid ate dozens of munitions from Border Patrol agents, walked away slowly and flipped them off.
