Love it! 👏👇

So the machines they had trouble with are the ones that didn’t count the way they wanted it too. These people are fucking ridiculous.

N8628 Took off from Dulles, Virginia, United States.

Switzerland's glaciers are disappearing at a record pace. More than 5% of their ice has vanished this year alone — threatening water supplies, ecosystems and communities across Europe. n.pr/4z7IApd

Republicans are giving away free tickets to their own midterm convention and still cannot fill the seats. So, needless to say, I'm in a great mood. thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/week-progr...

A SLAP IN THE FACE. Trump wasn’t concerned about sailors aboard the USS Lincoln being pushed to the breaking point. He denied their suffering. Now the Navy might replace Black war hero Doris “Dorie” Miller’s name on a carrier with Trump’s. Trump wants the honor without honoring those who serve.

This is fascism.

Foreign meat until the midterms!

In 1971, Daniel Ellsberg leaked The Pentagon Papers exposing the lies told to the public about the disastrous Viet Nam war, forever becoming a hero in history. Now... someone PLEASE leak #TheEPSTEINFiles & end the biggest coverup scandal of all-time! 🙏

They openly admit their election crimes & are actively doing everything they can to undermine & outright steal the Midterm Elections. Any surprise he fired the remaining members of the Election Assistance Commission? He knows if he loses he's headed for a 3rd Impeachment & an orange jumpsuit. 🤞 👍

Can I get an amen?

Here’s an update on the surface smoke forecast for WA from the HRRR smoke model. Expect increasing surface smoke for Western WA through today, with north winds keeping parts of the Sound clean at times, and heavier smoke by Tuesday. #wawx

Exactly 3 months from today is the most important midterm election in our lifetime. Our opportunity to hold him accountable. Register to vote here: Iwillvote.com The stakes have never been higher. Show the world the majority of Americans are good, decent, honest people. #VoteBlue🗳️ #RejectMAGA 👎

4:50 PM: Chaos in #Spokane with multiple fires burning around the area and winds shifting more to the west, gusting up to 44 mph at Spokane Airport. The #OldTrailsFire has burned 2.3K acres, and the new #AutumnLaneFire has burned 250 acres. 2 smoke plumes now. #wawx

Heads up, #Seattle...smoke from massive fires in Eastern Washington and Southern British Columbia will move into Western Washington starting early Monday, getting denser through Tuesday and Wednesday. Prepare for an extended period of degraded air quality. #wawx

From today, and every day that traitorous rapist sack of shit is corrupting our country, I will post #TrumpWillNeverBeMyPresident

Imagine getting roasted hard and the judge basically says, “Yeah… that’s fair.” He lost the lawsuit, and now it’s part of the public record.

Shocking view of wildfires in the N. Cascades, Okanogan Highlands, and Southern BC all exploding on Friday. If you thought this was crazy, remember that Saturday will be one of the #PNW's worst fire weather days in history. Buckle up, folks. #wawx #orwx #bcstorm Loop: @wxfront.bsky.social

Six congressmen bought between $83,000 to $245,000 in SpaceX stock just before its IPO: -Jared Moskowitz -Gil Cisneros -Dan Meuser -John McGuire -William Timmons -John James Five serve on committees whose work impacts SpaceX's business. We must ban members of Congress from trading stock.

HUGE increase to the Extremely Critical risk area for Saturday. It now includes almost all of Eastern WA and a good portion of NE OR. Extremely dangerous fire weather conditions are likely in this region, with winds up to 50 mph and humidity down to 15%. #wawx #orwx

I'm old enough to remember when polio put my friends into iron lungs. We dutifully lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives. What RFK Jr. is doing to public health in America is a disgrace.

Sobering update from BLM OR/WA on the extremely active PNW wildfire season. 1.3M acres have burned, w/a seasonal avg of 1.2M. This is an above normal wildfire season already...and we have to go until at least October. Give this a read, folks. #wawx #orwx #wildfires

Just 10 billionaires have already poured over $600 MILLION into this year's midterms. In the entire 2008 presidential cycle, the last election before Citizens United, total billionaire spending was $16 million. If you're wondering what the real threat to "election integrity" is, it's Big Money.

WOW. The ex-wife of the ICE officer who shot a 26-year-old Colombian man in Maine has come forward to say that he had mental health issues and was abusive in their relationship. She says after the shooting he called asking her to vouch for him — instead, she went to the press.

Unearthed records just revealed that Ken Paxton owns 15 homes on a government salary. This includes luxury real estate in Hawaii, Utah, and Florida.

Sounds like gender-affirming care to me.

Todd Blanche is the worst Attorney General nominee in my lifetime. He’s under investigation by the Bar Association. This confirmation hearing isn’t bearing that out.

4:30 PM: Convection ongoing across the Washington Cascades, with some areas of lightning strikes as well. #wawx

She can duck and weave, but Susan Collins is the chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee. She’s responsible for overseeing the appropriations process, including funding for ICE. Collins voted in favor of providing $70 billion in additional funding for ICE and Border Patrol. Vote her out.

We all know this still stinks to high heaven. Gov. Andy Beshear says he still hasn’t received an official update from Sen. Mitch McConnell. “I’ve had no official response. Nothing sent to our office, no letter, no email.”

Obama won, yet again. 🏆 He threw a concert, people actually showed up, and had a damn good time.

When you see the story about how the world now has its first trillionaire, and when you see the story about how laboratories in Congo have run out of supplies to test for Ebola, it is important to understand that in many ways these are the same story.

😕🇺🇸 Yeah @marenmorris.bsky.social gets it

In the same way Donald Trump publicly asked Russia and China to interfere for him in two elections, he told his GOP minions to rig the 2026 midterms. Now they have. Obviously all of us still *must* vote. But we also need to ask ourselves how we will react if this rigging works.

#sunset behind a tree! What a perfect photo!

An upcoming Montana ballot referendum would deny corporations the power to spend in state and federal elections. If it passes in deep red Montana, it could pass anywhere. State by state, this could effectively nullify Citizens United. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1fPbGHe3xE

He skipped church. Dropped the F-bomb. Praised Allah. On Easter. You can’t make this up. The man tweets war threats while you hunt eggs with your kids. THIS is your president, America. Wake up.

He's getting tested again and she's getting serviced

I’m not sure Todd Blanche can run the DoJ when most of his time is spent making sure Ghislaine Maxwell doesn’t release more of her Epstein files to the WSJ.
