I sincerely hope that whoever’s the next democrat president, goes after this corrupt little shit, locks him up and throws away the god damn key.

The “Tommy” shown in this viral video from Abdul El-Sayed is a former staffer for Sen. Josh Hawley and the son of a GOP strategist. For nearly five minutes, El-Sayed questioned the man about his understanding of the Constitution and the religious freedom it affords all Americans. Simply brilliant.

Lots of folks are comparing McConnell’s vote today to Feinstein’s finals days in the senate. The main difference is that Feinstein was co-sponsoring legislation to expand voting rights, while McConnell voted to cut SNAP and end environmental protections.

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased. Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power. Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable. But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless. Remember this.

gut-wrenching but don't look away. what's the commonality? very little daylight between repugnant abuse of female detainees and women (mostly Black and Brown) with high-risk pregnancies in red-fascist states trigger warning obviously.

This should horrify all of us! Women in ICE detention underwent invasive medical procedures without informed consent. Senator Jon Ossoff’s bipartisan investigation called the findings “nightmarish & disgraceful” Everyone deserves dignity, bodily autonomy & human rights! #SheShed #ViVaHerAlliance

Taxpayers are on the hook for another $765 million to ensure four offshore wind farms are never built. Feds will buy out leases off NY, CA, and the Gulf of Maine, bringing total federal payouts to abandon wind leases to $2.5 billion. Art of the deal, amirite? www.nytimes.com/2026/06/17/c...

Apparently Susie Wiles was vehemently opposed to appointing Pulte as DNI, and will now quit because Trump is insulting her by refusing to listen to her well founded opinion of such a terrible appointment. If this happens, the WH Trump Train comes off the rails. www.rawstory.com/susie-wiles-...

He can put his name on coins, notes, buildings, roads, passports all he wants… All people will remember is that his name was all over the Epstein files.

Excellent. People are pissed. Now do something about it. Have you registered to vote? Do you have all the documentation you need in order to do so? Start planning now. Anger is good. Action is better.

Great read!

Fifteen minutes before the President announced he was pausing strikes on Iran, somebody moved $500 million in oil futures. Somebody knew. Somebody told them. Or somebody is them. New piece ↓ open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

Staged assassinations, wife of supreme court judge participant in January 6th, Epstein Files, rogue drunk FBI director, director of department of war reciting Pulp Fiction as a prayer... This isn't normal, America! There is no going back to something. The experiment failed and is over. #RIP🇺🇲

WOW: A stunning new report in the WSJ reveals that military advisers intentionally excluded Donald Trump from the command room during the recent high-stakes operation to extract a downed U.S. airman in Iran, because they feared his erratic behavior could jeopardize the mission. 1/

Disney's new CEO, whose pay package is worth nearly $45M, just announced 1,000 layoffs. Reminder that Disney paid an effective federal income tax rate of ZERO in 2025 and aims to buy back $7B of its own stock in 2026. This is what corporate greed looks like.

FDR served 4 terms as President. His 4th resulted in the passing of 22nd Amendment to limit future presidents to 2 terms. "The structure of world peace can not be the mark of one man, one party or one nation. It must be a peace that rests on the co-operative effort of the whole world." #NoKings

If this holds and the Strait of Hormuz resumes a semblance of normal pre-war traffic, Donald Trump just gave an organization that he designated as a Foreign Terrorist Organization about $200 million *per day* in new transit fees that did not exist before he started the war against them.

America is now on the clock. We have two weeks to remove Donald Trump from office through the 25th Amendment or impeachment. Not saying that will happen, only saying that a nation with even a shred of decency would get to work on it immediately.
