There's a three-hour gap between when school gets out and when parents get home and a burgeoning youth mental health crisis. Afterschool programs are a proven, parent-approved, positive investment that is severely underfunded. Y'all, we can do this. www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

ICE executing a search warrant at 430am on a member of Congress strikes me as political attack and abuse of power and not a legitimate investigation.

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

It's very sobering to realize that you just lived through the absolute peak of American power and influence and watched one man set on fire just to warm his own basest urges and ego.

The White House Press Corps should've walked out as soon as the Trump regime banned the Associated Press for calling the Gulf of Mexico the "Gulf of Mexico." That was Feb 15, 2025. The first month of Trump Term II. Not surprising that abandoning principles for weak acquiescence led to more abuse.

Pt 3: I made this post about Google AI summaries misinforming us. Now Futurism reports that these summaries are only accurate 91% of the time. At the scale of summaries they produce, that means Google, itself, is producing 450 billion pieces of misinformation yearly! futurism.com/artificial-i...

Melissa Nadia Viviana 🐸@resistrebelrevolt.net

I can confidently tell you that the phrase "I googled it" is now meaningless. We're no longer informed humans. The AI summaries on our searches is constantly misinforming us. I know this because I've used that info and been corrected by real humans so many times.

Honest to god can we stop with the “Trump says…” ledes. I’m begging you

WASHINGTON (AP) — Trump says oil prices that spiked because of Iran war likely won't come down until after US midterm elections.

The government attempting to limit the ability of citizens to vote strikes to the core of what America is. All our rights under the constitution we hold so dear come from citizens right to vote and choose their government.

Republicans have been selling fear and only fear for decades. It is the only thing they know now.

Kai Ryssdal@kairyssdal.bsky.social

I’m telling you - the default position of this administration is fear. Fear of questions, fear of transparency, fear of being found out, and fear of the American people.

I have a trade deficit with my beer store. I give them money, they give me beer.

Peter Sagal@petersagal.bsky.social

In his speech yesterday, Canada PM Mark Carney seemed to try to explain to the President what a “trade deficit” is. You’re not just giving another country 100s of millions of dollars… You’re buying things from them! That you want!

He’s going to…bomb the bond market?

Acyn@acyn.bsky.social

Reporter on Bond Market: The yields have come back up since then. Have you talked to Bessent about another type of intervention.? Trump: The ultimate intervention is our military. And if we have to use that, we will.

Argh. You know what I meant

This is, bar none, the stupidest fuckung thing I’ve ever heard. And the idea that there’s nobody in the chain of command - civilian or military - with enough courage to say so is a disgrace.

Update on this: This bill just passed the Senate, 86-11. Efforts to strip the sweeping new tariff authorities from the bill failed. Lunacy

Catherine Rampell@crampell.bsky.social

I don’t know how you could look at Donald Trump’s record to date and think it’s a good idea to give him more power to levy tariffs. But that’s exactly what the Senate is poised to do, on a bipartisan basis, in a bill coming up for a vote today www.thebulwark.com/p/senate-vot...

This is banana republic stuff - we all know that, right?

FLAG: Trump gets to keep tax immunity for himself, his sons, and the Trump Organization under the new 'deal' struck by Todd Blanche. The new order also reaffirms that Trump won't have to pay any taxes he might have owed the IRS.

Mark this well. A public servant who performed admirably in a crisis is being publicly persecuted, maybe prosecuted. Govt websites are being given over to propaganda. Fake medicines are being praised while lifesaving vaccines are lied about. Slanderous grifters cackle their triumph. Despicable.

Pete Hegseth continues to hide behind the bravery and sacrifice of our troops to deflect from his own incompetence & lack of leadership. Rather than do his job he’s fighting woke, making workout videos, and releasing statements from his hair and makeup studio while blaming Biden.

Believing that sexual assault is “not that bad” is absolutely a risk factor for committing an act of sexual violence. And why wouldn’t it be? If these men are insisting that it’s perfectly fine sexual behavior, then why would they hold themselves to a standard they don’t believe in?

Marisa Kabas@marisakabas.bsky.social

Alarming story that confirms my own reporting along similar lines: Dan Moraff, the political strategist who plucked Graham Platner out of obscurity to run for senate and barely vetted him, was barred from Rep. Summer Lee’s 2022 campaign after three complaints of sexual misconduct.

The SCOTUS decisions this week have further cemented my notion that even if the Democrats take both the House and Senate only representatives loyal to Trump will be sworn in. Those in power will not willingly give it back to the people.

There is no excuse for Bill Cassidy voting to confirm RFK Jr. and convincing others to do so. Tens of thousands of expert healthcare professionals and scientists opposed this, and he ignored us because he thought it would benefit him. Now he wants to wash his hands. But we will NEVER forget.

I love this one. This was the one that made me realize these were going to work. A minute isn’t much time and I worried it was too little. But this one does more in a minute than I could do in a whole semester.
