Reporter on ICE shooting in Marble Hill NYC: He was shot while inside his vehicle. The NYPD says he's now at a hospital. When we showed up there was a rush of ICE officers. Then they all left in a hurry suddenly.

The nonpartisan CBO says the Iran war has already cost $38 billion and could add $3 billion every month. It also estimates depleted munitions could take five years to replace. Wars apparently come with subscription pricing. #WarCosts

2026 U.S. Midterm Elections are scheduled to be held on November 3, 2026. They’re setting up the USPS for mail-in votes to be an agent of chaos. Plan for it. 1. Take friends and family with you. 2. Stand in line, as long as it takes. 3. Votes against them. #Pinks #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue

Our future as a nation is in jeopardy because there are Americans who think angering Canada and sucking up to North Korea are good things.

Trump claims "Argentina's fighting for its life" as if it is the American cattle rancher's job to go broke to save another country's beef industry. Crushing domestic producers while lecturing the press on foreign bailouts completely destroys any claim to "America First."

Hakeem Jeffries should not have any more meetings with Trump’s family members. Can we all at least agree on that?

END CITIZENS UNITED.......

Trump’s DOJ is reportedly digging into the FBI search of Mar-a-Lago as part of a broader investigation of his perceived enemies. Nothing screams “justice” quite like turning the Justice Department into the presidential grievance department. Source: AP #WeaponizedDOJ

Susan Collins announcing she'll vote against a controversial nominee is basically the moment it becomes clear that nominee will be confirmed. It means Thune has enough votes to confirm, and thus, Collins gets a pass to look independent.

📌My remembrance of Lindsey Graham: He was the very worst of the worst: BECAUSE HE KNEW BETTER.

Dead or alive, Mitch McConnell is on extended medical leave — on your dime. This is the same Mitch McConnell who voted against: paid family and medical leave for everyone else.

Heads up: Taylor Farms lettuce is sold under these brand names: Marketside (sold at Walmart) Earthbound Farm (owned by Taylor Farms) Cross Valley Farms (owned by US Foods) Private labels for Target, Whole Foods (365), and Amazon Fresh. AVOID ALL OF THEM

“Mr. President you dont own the 4th of July. You own January 6th.”

What I'll be watching tonight instead of listening to the never ending lies from the WH about "rigged" elections:

Rep. Thomas Massie has announced he'll introduce the Epstein Files Transparency Act II, a bill to give state AGs, DAs, 'authorized state officers,' and victims the right to sue DOJ for "unlawfully withholding, redacting, delaying, concealing, removing, or failing to publish Epstein-related records."

Now they’re trying to convince us that a data center is not a data center?

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.”

NEW: Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton appears to have used an address where he did not live while voting in six elections in the past two years — despite warning voters that “it is illegal to misrepresent your residence on election records.” with @texastribune.org

Yes. Reform the Supreme Court. Term limits. Expand the Court. Enforceable code of ethics. It’s time we address corruption on the highest court.

📌Demanding affordable healthcare, daycare, education, and clean air and drinking water is the most American thing ever. 📌A central government that controls these things to protect the wealthy oligarchy is communism. -You're welcome

𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚 🚨 Trump is making money up off every single person he puts in Immigration detention. This is so evil! He invested in Geo Group, the Private Prison company & is making a fortune off of Ice torture & off of starving immigrant kids & depriving them of medication! #TrumpRepublicanCorruption

It will never make sense. They don't pretend to make sense. They just hope the people voting for them are dumb (with a "b" at the end).

Didn’t see this coming. Another Senate race to watch closely. Lindsey Graham spent years acting like South Carolina belonged to him. The voters might have other plans. Dr. Annie Andrews is at 45%, and among informed voters, she leads Graham 46% to 43%.

A proposed rule fueled by Trump’s conspiracy theories would require the USPS to keep a list of voters it believes should be allowed to vote by mail—and give them the power to hold those ballots hostage. Urge them to say NO and help protect voting by mail: act.standupamerica.com/letters/cte-...

The people in the Epstein files shouldn't control...the Epstein files.

To avoid penalties under the GOP bill, AZ is now requiring phone interviews to prove SNAP eligibility, but staffing shortages make it ~impossible to get someone on the phone. If the interview is not completed, applicants’ benefits are cut and they have to reapply. open.substack.com/pub/populari...

Dear Republicans: what are your expectations of FEMA going forward? 🚨 FEMA cut thousands of employees over the last 18 months. And plans to reduce the agency’s workforce by as much as 50% by October 2026. So when the next major disaster hits your town, what’s the plan?

Ossoff: Well, I think it’s a call to action for patriotic Americans to recognize that, at the 250th anniversary of our country’s founding in rejection of kingdom and monarchy, we have these events being driven by the narcissism of the president, who styles himself most like a king.

From buying whistles for your family & neighbors to calling Congress: 202-224-3121 or registering voters, donating to immigrant action orgs or Democratic candidates or any of the things below, you can make a difference! The most vital thing you can do is to talk to others. bsky.app/profile/male...

How severely should we punish immigrant babies? Should we deprive them of food & torture them with lights on 24/7? Should we permanently damage their intellectual development to where they stop talking & start wetting or hitting themselves? No? Well, Trump & his #ICE thugs are doing just that!🧵

This is a window into how Trump sees energy policy and comes very close to admission of a crime. First because he thinks it's good when oil is expensive because you can make more selling it. Second because he seems to claim that the US is stealing Iranian oil.

Eighteen people have died in ICE custody in the first five months of this year. ICE is on pace to pass last year’s toll, which was already the highest in two decades. So what is ICE doing about it? It is making the deaths harder to count.

Rare “White Auroras” spotted over Norway.🤩

1/ ICE used facial recognition on a woman during an immigration raid & misidentified her. Twice. Then called the result "definitive." That app is now deployed in cities across US, bought without a public vote, governed by no one. This is the pattern. 🧵 #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy

ICE is not about immigration. ICE is about normalizing a paramilitary force on peaceful streets. Abolish ICE.

Ken Paxton was indicted for scamming his own friends. He convinced them to invest hundreds of thousands in a company while secretly pocketing a commission. Paxton sold out his own friends for a quick buck. What makes you think he won't sell you out in the Senate?
