BTG / Although a reason was not cited by CBS, "Beyond the Gates" will air encores of its first five episodes during the week of June 30-July 4, 2025. #BeyondTheGates #BTG www.soapoperanetwork.com/2025/06/cbs-...

Zohran Mamdani's victory wasn't a one-off for progressives. I'm currently polling just single digits behind the lead, even though I was a "long-shot" candidate 3 months ago. That's because people-first politics WORK and we can't do it without you:

Sen. Roger Marshall lies that Trump's big bill includes "no taxes on Social Security" (this in fact is not included in the bill)

Great. Just great. Scopes trials for everyone.

The ruling marks a major change to longstanding First Amendment protections for online pornography.

The Supreme Court ruled that states can require porn sites to verify visitors’ ages in order to prevent access by minors

when my brain is struggling to focus even more than usual like today, I repeat to myself "it doesn't have to be perfect, it just has to get done", "just do five minutes" and "one thing at a time" a lot

Woooowwww 😮🇺🇦💪 The Ukrainian drone group Wild Hornets has fielded a new air-to air interceptor FPV quadcopter capable of reaching altitudes over 11km (36,000 feet). ℹ️ Most commercial airplanes fly at an altitude of about 30,000 to 40,000 feet (that’s around 9,000 to 12,000 meters).

Blocking Medicaid recipients from using Planned Parenthood won't just hurt people on Medicaid. It'll also hurt people with private insurance by forcing centers to close (especially in rural communities), leading to care shortages and making it harder to access timely, affordable, high-quality care.

Hahahaha this is *huge* and the Republicans are *fucked*. The House is almost certainly not gonna pass this budget. The hard-liners lost *every single one* of their extremist provisions. And all because DEMS ARE FIGHTING BACK.

Amen

NEW: No decisions in either of the two democracy cases. Tomorrow will be last day or the term -- a BIG day for democracy in court. Stay informed. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0

Well, Floriduh can’t say it’s been fun.

Can’t help but think DeSantis’s moronic “invitation” for New York cops to move to Florida bc it’s now the Soviet occupied zone of Berlin is in large part because private insurance is bugging out and FEMA now funds concentration camps ahead of a forecastless hurricane season.

The unheralded part of Citizen's United is it has lead to a generation of rich guys who think they are gods.

THIS

But his hat says...

The American Academy of Pediatrics has affirmed that it will continue to follow its own evidence-based childhood vaccination schedule, regardless of the recommendations made by RFK Jr.'s American Institute for Childhood Protection (AICP). That’s what responsible leadership looks like.

Absolute legend, this is why I’m supporting her. We need representatives that aren’t afraid to fight back and stick to their morals. If you want a leader with a spine, every little bit helps: secure.actblue.com/donate/abu-d...

Crockett: The First Lady, a model— when I say model I’m not talking about Tyra Banks, Cindy Crawford, or Naomi Campbell level— applied for an Einstein visa. You’re supposed to have some sort of significant achievement… She had none of those. It doesn’t take an Einstein to see the math ain’t mathin

If MAGA passes Trump's Big Ugly Bill Experts say 51,000 Americans will die PER YEAR due to loss of Medicaid or ACA coverage This is unacceptable under ANY circumstances And to think-Republicans are doing this to give tax breaks to billionaires No,Mitch McConnell We Wont Get Over Losing Medicaid

Remember, Trump said “totally obliterated” BEFORE any battle damage assessment had been done. Before ANY battle damage assessment had been done. He’s a pathological liar and an idiot.

Too many vaccines in the first year?Your child is 44% more likely to survive to one year if they are vaccinated than if they are unvaccinated.

If they blow up the us before we find out who won Aussie Survivor v The World I’m haunting everyone.

Bill: I’m sorry I’m not coming back to you Dani: You weren’t invited #BeyondTheGates

I cannot believe I have to say this. We should not be confirming judges who advocate for disobeying court orders that are inconvenient for Donald Trump.

Careful guys, if you don’t control migration you might turn out like <checks notes> the greatest, wealthiest city in the world.

Incredible mom energy from Mira Nair

I love the people trying to make Mamdani seem scary when he looks like the most in demand pediatric dentist in Manhattan.

When I was a newborn I saved up and bought my own basket. We all did. This generation just wants a handout

Renowned comics historian and author writing the new history of DC comics? Sign me up twice. I’m slow and will need a repeat class. #newcomics

This. Whole. Part.

when i buy whiskey from the ABC store, that's like the soviet union, to me.

The best claim this jet setting Atlantic staff writer has to living a life informed by the Soviet experience is through the woman his brother married.
