JUST UNSEALED: A judge ruled this week that the first Trump admin's "Remain in Mexico" policy illegally subjected thousands of people – many with meritorious asylum claims — to horrifically dangerous and violent conditions and deprived them of access to attorneys. cgrs.uclawsf.edu/en/legal-doc...

Let’s be clear. This $5000 “dividend” is nothing more and nothing less than a promised payout for votes. It’s a crime, plain and simple. Whether or not he’s lying (he is) is irrelevant.

The #Mariners need to find a manager to make on field baseball decisions. Dipoto needs to keep building the team. Let the manager make the decisions during the game. Just not sure Dan Wilson is the right fit. And Im a HUGE fan of Dan Wilson the man. The former player. The legend that he is.

i think we’re in very good shape heading into this new era of the party, though. Bernie, Zohran, and AOC at the top here is good shit. Ossoff is who you want leading the libs into a coalition with the left. Obama will always be popular. if he’s the only elder left, it’s fine. he’s embraced Zohran.

Ossoff will also steal whatever appeal Buttigieg has because he’s a way better version of Pete. he also will have won two terms in a purple state, whereas Pete has won what. i just don’t think Ossoff should give up the Georgia seat. a blessing and a curse with him and Warnock.

once Buttigieg is centerstage, the public, which has moved way more to the left since he last ran, will remember why he was mid. he’s gonna tank so hard, especially with POC and with the 45 and under crowd.

Per our new polling out today, the most popular politicians in America are… Barack Obama Bernie Sanders Zohran Mamdani Pete Buttigieg Jon Ossoff & Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Trump is tied with Elon Musk and Hakeem Jeffries, Schumer and Carlson in last www.gelliottmorris.com/p/2026-06-29...

I am not ok today. And honestly there are a lot of days I am not ok. Which is crazy. I have an amazing woman in my life. She makes me happy. I am happy when I am with her. It's almost like its forced me to evaluate the rest of my life and see it for what it is. Ive put up with so much for so long.

Ive just accepted this as my life. The disrespect at work and my living situation. But once you that taste of happiness and respect and communication its like everything else comes into focus. And you wake up and realize....Im not happy. Life kinda sucks.

Which is weird to say. It almost makes you feel like it's disrespectful to the person you have in your life that DOES make you happy. Although I know she would understand. Its all my negative self doubt. I guess it's just a sign that I need to make some changes in my life. Find overall happiness.

Im not generally a conspiracy theorist (and not sure I'd say I was one in this case) but so much about this shooting at the White House gala just doesn't make sense. But it just seems so.....odd. Not saying its staged but it just seems like they expected it. Anticipated it.

“When we’re growing up, there are all sorts of people telling us what to do when really what we need is space to work out who to be.” - Elliot Page

The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action with Iran is better than any deal Trump will ever negotiate. That was what you get when an adult is leading the country. is it a perfect deal? Probably not. But no deal is 100% perfect for either side. It worked. It WAS working. Now we have this mess.

I'm not saying Lopez is innocent but what is a person supposed to do if someone charges the mound and starts throwing punches? I understand having the ball in hand is bad but in the heat of the moment you don't think about things like that. I think. Just my initial thoughts. I could be wrong.

Are we still not allowed to speak negatively of the Israeli government? How can you watch what they continue to do and NOT speak out against their government? It has nothing to do with the Jewish people for being Jewish. It has everything to do with the Israeli government.

governor abbott took away our rainbow crosswalks but we replaced them with much more visible rainbow sidewalks, and some businesses have followed suit (one added rainbow exterior stairs)

The famous Andor line is that "tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle." Here is a perfect example of that through malicious compliance: Idaho forced the city of Boise to remove its Pride flags. So the city painted rainbows everywhere else.

I hate what Israel is doing now and has done in the past. But I don't hate any Jewish people. I hate what the US is doing in Iran and well, most of what they are doing right now in all areas. But I don't hate Americans.

A number of Jewish organizations are shrilly insisting that any criticism of Israeli genocide and warmongering is an illegitimate attack on Jews. At the same time, an increasing number of non-Jewish people are insisting that any attack on Jews is a legitimate attack on Israel. This sucks, man

Today doesn’t have to be amazing or productive or meaningful in some huge way. It just has to give you one decent moment—and you get to decide what that is.

Standing up against war with Iran isn't an endorsement of the Iranian government. It's simply opposition to an endless war that will have a major, costly impact on us and the rest of the world for many years.

The difference between the right and the left......the right seems to want to protect those that are tied to Epstein yet have strong MAGA ties. The left just wants to hold them ALL accountable. Release EVERY NAME implicated in the Epstein files!

Trump is simply on a revenge tour. He doesn't care about any of us. Even those that voted for him. If you are ok with this you have been duped and YOU are part of this problem. Time to get on the right side of history. #ImpeachTrump #DownfallOfTheUSA

So, quick question for the White House: If the racist post was put up by a White House staffer, how many people are posting using the president's name? Who are they? Who approves their posts? And why should anyone take anything coming from his account as coming from him if he's just staffing it out?

cosmic-drifter reposted

Also any news outlet quoting the president via his social media needs to stop doing that immediately since it’s the official position of the White House that the account does not represent him

He was a person. He was murdered. He’s not a “stock” to follow. What a ghoul of a person Trump is 🤮

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Trump: “Agitator and, perhaps, insurrectionist, Alex Pretti’s stock has gone way down with the just released video of him screaming and spitting in the face of a very calm and under control ICE Officer, and then crazily kicking in a new and very expensive government vehicle, so hard and violent.”

“He said the boys cried when he told them what was happening and were frightened and asked to hold a school nurse’s hand when they walked into the Whipple Building.”

I hate to say I am struggling today when so many people in this country are struggling right now but.....today is very overwhelming. I've put myself in such a horrible financial position. Not sure how I am going to fix this one.

So this country is being run by a child who is upset he didn't win the Nobel Peace Prize (which he didn't deserve) so he is going to try and conquer Greenland in retaliation?! #HelpUsAll #RESIST #FUCKICE #ImpeachDJT

BREAKING: The United States appears to have begun bombing Venezuela. Massive airstrikes are underway. War is here.

Cancel the LA Olympics, scrap the World Cup, the United States cannot be a trusted part of the international community so long as the White House operates this violently and with impunity.

One of my coworkers is really, really racist. At this point she isn't even hiding the fact that she would prefer a white nation and to send everyone else packing.
