This is perfect

Make no mistake—this is petty retaliation because of the protests. After a record-breaking protest against Trump yesterday, and his $40 million ego parade flopped hard, he’s lashing out, targeting Democratic cities, ignoring the fact that red cities protested too.

We won’t amplify it, but the president posting that Dems are “sick of mind” and “hate our country” immediately after 2 Dem lawmakers and their spouses were shot in their homes is the opposite of leadership. Gas on the fire.

Where Ken Martin is leading us is into one focus: winning shit. You cannot govern if you do not win. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/15/u...

And Hope Hoffman, the senator's daughter, is a disability advocate in MN. She's unharmed, but was, by reports, present during the attack. Thinking of her.

Republicans are unfit for office at any level

Does anyone think these unspeakably evil political assassinations of Democratic lawmakers would’ve occurred without the vicious permission structure erected by Trump, Vance, Rubio, and their MAGAts? www.nytimes.com/live/2025/06...

Jesus. The juxtaposition of these two posts back to back is just...

Striking to see Dem electeds calling on people to join the NoKings protests.

Governor Newsom is on fire ‼️ 🔥 🔥 🔥👍👏🩵💙

🧵 NEW piece from our experts @haydenjohnson.bsky.social and Katie Schwartzmann at @JustSecurity.org explaining the constitutional dangers when military force is deployed against protesters and the chilling effect on core democratic rights. 🔗 www.justsecurity.org/114543/first...

about to be on the @chrislhayes.bsky.social show!

Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro vowed Wednesday to protect the right of protesters if President Trump sends troops into Philadelphia as he has in Los Angeles. Shapiro told The Post that it is not the president’s job to police American cities.

Trump’s NIH director is proposing cuts that will put lives at risk.

Philly local tv station reporting that a man allegedly posed as an ICE agent in order to rob a car repair business office. How many other criminals might be getting this idea right now, given that actual ICE agents are refusing to show IDs, warrants, badges?

You know what to do…

what’s genuinely wild about all this is that we have people on tv talking about LA as this apocalyptic hellhole they must invade with military force and I’m here and I haven’t seen shit all day, not even an abnormal number of helicopters I drove to D&D tonight, I’m just hanging out! it’s fine!

Fuck Uber.

Guy on CNN about to pop a vein that even misdemeanors MUST BE PUNISHED. Remember when the Manhattan DA charges were filed against Trump and they *lost their effing minds* that these were “only” misdemeanors that had been bumped up to felonies? I just can’t

At no point in this entire article of 16 paragraphs does ABC mention that another cop killed this cop by shooting her in the back. Nor does it mention the name of the cop who killed this cop. Nor does it mention that the civilians involved never fired at them. ABC might as well be state media.

It's quite possible that Whiskey Pete 1) is too stupid and 2) has no aides to figure out he needs to coordinate with LAPD, in which case this will become a clusterfuck very quickly. is he going to feed the Marines? Or are they supposed to live off the land?

HELL YEAH: The federal prosecutor who resigned when Trump’s DOJ tried to force him to drop the Eric Adams corruption case - is running for Congress to FLIP Pennsylvania’s 7th district. And the best part? He can win. Blast this to space and watch his video. Let’s win this seat!

The people who only seem to have an issue with the Mexican flag being waved as they regularly wave Ukraine/Israel flags is wild to see

Reliably bad take — Nazi porn bars are also a bubble, fyi, though a fetid one — from a reliably tech ignorant columnist whose only salvation is that AI will never be able to replicate this nonsense www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Trump’s immigration actions are a classic bait & switch. He campaigned on deporting violent criminals. Instead, he’s deporting moms with their (sometimes American citizen) kids, good neighbors & hard workers; people who pay taxes & provide the labor we need.

It’s Sunday, so pray on it…

The same is true for raids on restaurants—rounding up people who are working hard and contributing to their community.

Happy June 6th! It’s ‘Ally Fridays’ on the Gay of the Day! We need and love them! It’s Kristin Chenoweth time! You can be a REAL christian and still support the lgbtq community. Smash that share button for the algorithm 🙏🏼 #pride #Pridemonth #lgbtq #lgbtqia #ally #history

Doesn't matter who is president: It's clear that the US Government cannot entrust its space and satellite programs to a thin-skinned, drug-addled meglomaniac.

“However much this nasty and petty feud entertains and amuses many observers—including many who had correctly predicted the unraveling….—we should keep in mind how much unnecessary damage and pain these two have caused.” www.americaamerica.news/p/the-trumn%...

Why ya gotta go and make this awkward for us, geez...

This #BigUglyBill will take healthcare coverage from millions and add $2.4 TRILLION to the national debt - all to give tax breaks to billionaires. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

The Republican Bill for Donald Trump's tax scam will leave nearly 11 million people without health care. It is projected to add $2.4 trillion to the national debt over the next 10 years and contradicts claims by the White House and Republican leaders that the bill won't worsen the national debt.

At least Harriet Tubman could keep a secret unlike pete hegseth.

They’re in my city. We’re 80% Hispanic. I tried to warn the Latino Trumpers, some I’ve known 30 years, that it wouldn’t be long before their echo chambers and bubbles burst in their quest for white adjacency 😞😞😞 elpasomatters.org/2025/06/03/i...

Donald Trump keeps promising “hundreds” of trade deals. He was supposed to have them by now. Reality check: ZERO Not one deal signed. Not even a clear definition of what he thinks a trade deal is.

Watters refers to KJP as “DEI Tapper”
