This wasn’t just a security breach, documents obtained by NPR from a hotel guest who found them on a printer revealed something even more disturbing: a planned luncheon in honor of Vladimir Putin. The menu literally read, “In honor of his excellency Vladimir Putin.”

We must preserve the US Postal Service because UPS or FedEx would never do this.

This could be the official GOP campaign poster at this point. They know he lies. He knows they know. And they still clap for the lies like it’s the gospel truth.

Congratulations, sir! Appearing on South Park is an honor, indeed. Not only have you "finally made it", you had the best line of dialogue in the show. Good luck with your love of furniture and your continuing EPSTEIN Cover-Up, Mar🐫

It isn’t happening in the basement of a pizza place. It’s in the White House.

A dozen or more transgender members of the U.S. Air Force who had sought early retirement to avoid being discharged for their gender identity have had those retirements canceled. Each has served between 15 and 18 years.

RFK Jr. saw 20 million lives saved by mRNA vaccines and thought, 'let's try the opposite!'

Texas has had seven major gun massacres in recent years. But now—even after the slaughter of school kids, teachers, shoppers, and churchgoers—Republican leaders have prohibited a law that keeps guns away from unhinged people. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

ATTN: If you’re one of the 1,000 FBI agents who reviewed the Epstein files, feel free to reach out to me via signal (in my bio). I’ll keep you anonymous- as I have the thousands of current and former federal workers who have sent me tips. Please share this widely. 🙏🏻

A reminder that after years of speaking out against Epstein and giving other survivors the courage to come forward, Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre died by suicide in April at the age of 41. Let's not forget that there are real human tragedies behind everything we're discussing.

This is just magnificent. Absolutely perfect. @thedailyshow.com

When a network lays off one of America’s greatest satirists, it’s not because he failed. It’s because he succeeded too loudly.

Yesterday, Maurene Comey, who prosecuted the Epstein case, was summarily fired from SDNY. Her letter to colleagues pulls no punches. "Fear is the tool of a tyrant, wielded to suppress independent thought." h/t @msnbc.com

“You cannot learn about this letter and believe for one second that Donald didn’t know full well what Epstein was up to.”

EXCLUSIVE: Fired DOJ prosecutor Maurene Comey sends message to former colleagues, warning that ‘Fear is the tool of the tyrant.’

They’re giddy about putting undocumented immigrants into a prison surrounded by alligators. They are such hateful, despicable people that they are fantasizing about human beings being eaten by alligators.

Jong-Fast: This would be the largest cut to food assistance in US history—and it will result in hungry kids. It’s also important to mention that this bill grows the deficit. I don’t know how it manages to do the two things you absolutely don’t want—starve children and grow the deficit—but it does.

“The government of the United States is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion.” — Treaty of Tripoli, signed by the United States in 1797.

This hits hard.

Trump says he’s not happy that Putin is bombing civilians every day. But only because his dream of a Nobel Peace Prize isn’t happening. He won’t do anything about it though - except say he’s unhappy. Then back to golf.

Crockett: They have nothing to show for it except for those top earners being able to have their next trophy wife or buy their next yacht, or get their next plane, that doesn't work for me. And that obviously does not work for my constituents.

The past few months have been tough, and we just want to say thank you. In the beginning, it felt like we were yelling into the wind, no one was listening. But then you all showed up. You raised your voices, shared the truth, and made the media pay attention.

When JD Vance tried to claim Catholic teaching justifies MAGA policies, Pope Francis responded that Vance needs to meditate more on the Parable of the Good Samaritan. In this exchange, @mattpolprof.bsky.social is very good on Catholicism and MAGA cruelty: newrepublic.com/article/1950...

This is America.

The people constantly braying about “Christian values” are attacking the Pope for suggesting that we love others.

Crockett: Instead of the President cosplaying as the next pope, he may want to cosplay as an actual President of these United States. That means he may have to do a little bit of research and understand that he swore a an oath to defend and protect the constitution.

So humbled that our project, "The Life of the Mother," has won the Pulitzer Prize for public service. Thank you Mayron Hollis and the families of Amber Thurman, Candi Miller, Josseli Barnica, Nevaeh Crain and Porsha Ngumezi for trusting us to tell their stories. www.propublica.org/article/prop...

Some of the study results suggest that we are “seeing fundamental changes to the environments around us.” from @theguardian.com via @climatedesk.org

Most Americans frequently use federal science information. But few are concerned that cuts to federal science spending could affect their access to such information, a new poll finds.

God blesses him!

Judge allows Trump administration to fire veterans affairs employees it deems to be in “DEI roles”.
