Be warned: Trump will likely use his war with Iran as a pretext to further suppress dissent at home. We must resist his efforts to stifle freedom of speech, make warrantless searches and arrests of Americans, and put more military onto our streets.

Launching the U.S. into what could be yet another unpopular and costly forever war, while simultaneously pushing for an unpopular budget bill at home that will take food and healthcare away from millions of people. The "peace president."

"The same gang who shamelessly pushed the Iraq war are back to warmonger in Iran." Read @premthakker.bsky.social's list of 10 people you shouldn’t listen to about Iran, from Newt Gingrich to Sean Hannity to John Bolton: zeteo.com/p/these-10-p...

That’s exactly what this is about. Distraction. For all of this and that lame duck, low energy spectacle

Will Donald Trump be condemning and disowning this alleged assassin? Will MAGA and Fox be asked if they contributed to his ‘radicalization’? Will Dems insist Republicans tone down their rhetoric as the GOP did in reverse after the attempt on Trump’s life (by a Republican)?

And there it is. The Minnesota assassin who shot Democratic lawmakers “voted for Donald Trump and was a strong Trump supporter,” according to his best friend.

Nussy game craazy

Look what I found when I searched "ICE uniform" in Google Shopping. None of us have any way of knowing if the "ICE agent" pushing you into a car, isn't just some unbalanced vigilante into cosplay. These are very dangerous times.

Raskin: You are not our king, and we are not your subjects. We will never be your subjects. All of us born here on this land are citizens and your executive order is nothing but bad graffiti on the Constitution, and we're going to wash it off today

How did bromance turn so quickly into breakup? What's Trump's rebound play? Who gets custody of JD Vance? @rbreich.bsky.social & Michael Lahanas-Calderón discuss The Donald's latest divorce on today's Coffee Klatch.

By the way a military parade when we’re not celebrating a war victory is something a dude who never served would do.

The "pro-worker" president, everyone.

"A Black father and daughter’s Memorial Day fishing outing took a bitter turn after they were met by a white man on a dock who threw large rocks at them and called them racial slurs."

Nice job!

It's TACO time.

As powerful industry leaders yield to Trump’s bullying, @kaitlancollins.bsky.social emphasizes the importance of journalists standing firm in their responsibility. All-new episode of The Weekly Show, out now.

The city of Tulsa, home to one of the most horrifying racial-terror massacres in U.S. history and the people who tried to cover it up, has announced a $105 million reparations package.

BREAKING: Newark Mayor Ras Baraka has sued Alina Habba for malicious prosecution and false arrest.

Are we great yet?

“Without the threat of contempt, legal experts say the Trump administration could ignore court orders with impunity.” Project 2025 was once a secret. Now it’s being written into our country.

The recent antisemitic attack in Boulder is disgraceful and unacceptable. We must all condemn it in the strongest terms and wish a rapid recovery to those injured. Violence only begets violence, and we must allow no place for it in our politics.

Donald Trump lies, hides and pays his way to power - never forget that. On the LP Podcast @jonesieman.bsky.social shares Trump's campaign and court controversy here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_oT...

Billions in foreign real estate deals. $320M in crypto trading fees — and a private dinner with top buyers of his meme coin. $28M from Amazon for a Melania documentary. The list goes on... We're so numb to Trump profiting off the presidency that hardly anyone notices. Hello?

With this awful terror attack in Colorado, Congress needs to ask how many federal resources have been pulled from counterterrorism to deport Hispanics?

I feel safer already.

Where the uh… you know… promised “massive Russian retaliation” that they have been magically holding back while 1 million of their men die or are wounded and they are humiliated on the world stage while reducing their occupation of Ukraine from 30 percent in march to 19 percent today?

NEWS: Homeland Security improperly detained a Congressional staffer, Trump reposts claim that Biden was executed in 2020, Ukraine launched a major attack without telling Trump, and pardons become lucrative. All the news you missed: open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...

People will lose vital healthcare coverage if Trump's budget bill passes. One estimate found that this would lead to over 20,000 avoidable deaths per year. Oh, and a reminder that Joni Ernst is up for re-election in 2026.

This regime is full of fascist criminals. They all belong in prison.

Oh

It’s been around since 1983.

A massive group of white nationalists was seen marching through Kansas City, Missouri, in a rally held by Patriot Front.

Trump just seriously whined about his “mental anguish” in his pressure campaign on CBS News. Katie Phang reports on the latest in that lawsuit and why Paramount’s settlement might be federal bribery.

For too long, government has worked phenomenally well for the 1% and corporate lobbyists — I happen to think now is the time that government worked for the rest of us.

GOP Sen. Joni Ernst responds to voters saying that cutting Medicaid will kill them: “Well, we all are going to die.”

In January, Trump fired 19 inspectors general who root out fraud and corruption. One of his picks to replace them is a GOP ex-congressman who allegedly violated House ethics rules. Another resigned from a state job after allegedly mishandling taxpayer money. "Drain the swamp."

This has always been the GOP's strategy: 1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves. 2) Explode the deficit. 3) Demand cuts to vital programs that help millions. 4) Repeat. They're trying to get away with it again.

The corruption is clear as day. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/27/u...
