Looking at you Elon....

Nicolas Cage says he’s “probably not” working with Amazon again after refusing to sign AI waiver for “Spider-Noir”: ‘I am not an AI-friendly actor’

Zelenskyy: “This is a particularly critical time, when new steps are needed to prevent Russia from getting the impression that it can break the world and continue the war forever.”

Iran’s World Cup team arrived in Mexico wearing lapel pins honoring the victims of a deadly missile strike on an elementary school at the start of the war in the Mideast. The players wore gold-colored pins with the number “168” on their jackets. apnews.com/article/worl...

In case you missed it: last night, CBS News awarded the Mike Wallace Memorial Scholarship to Santiago Campos, a high school journalist. In accepting, he took the time to condemn the direction of CBS News to much surprise and applause from the audience.

The orange felon’s $10B lawsuit against the IRS was already corrupt AF as it’s a scheme to steal from the US govt, but now he wants to settle that BS lawsuit by creating a nearly $2B slush fund to pay off his allies such as Jan 6 terrorists. He belongs in prison, not in the WH.

Today

For a man who is a victim of harassment, a Witch Hunt, and a political smear job, Trump sure doesn't want the evidence of his innocence of pedophilia to see the light of day does he? #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

How many agree that online video games are a major justification for data center projects?

Featured story from @gaigedavila.bsky.social: Meenu Batra, 53, is Texas' only licensed Hindi, Punjabi, and Urdu legal interpreter. She once helped immigrants in the courts. Now she's languishing in a Raymondville detention center. She’s lived in America for 35 years.

How Volodymr Zelenskyy manages to survive in a literal war without a ballroom to keep him safe is just shocking to me.

California and Virginia let voters decide what their election maps look like. Florida's Governor decides alone. Why do some states trust voters while DeSantis treats them like obstacles to power. Don’t let that stupid corrupt asshole silence you. #StopIllegalFloridaMaps

What's missing in Bluesky that I enjoyed about pre-Musk Twitter is the exclusion and banning of users who say things detrimental to humanity. This app has been around a while, but what purpose does it serve?

🩸🩸🩸 I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x POS convicted felon who incites political violence, adjudicated rapist & pedophile Trump did on J6 🩸🩸🩸

This is criminal. We have every right to demand an ethics investigation. #sheshed substack.com/@jillkershaw...

FUN FACT: It's been 459 days since trump said he would lower prices "on day one," and since the 24 hours he said it'd take him to end the Ukraine War. Instead, we got: - Even HIGHER prices - Ukraine war still raging - Brand NEW war in Iran That's the trump way: Promise everything. Deliver nothing.

Good morning, friends🫂🫂 I’m alive. Kyiv was quieter this night. No sleep - but still alive. Dnipro took the main hit. Bila Tserkva, Kharkiv, Sumy region suffered too. russians as always hit homes. Clinics. Stores. And even cemeteries.

Note that there's been no threat to sue over this statement. I know I would be suing for tens of millions if I was innocent.

The majority of library funding in the United States depends on the decisions of LOCAL decision-makers. That's why you need to be a local decision-maker. We made it easy to run for office at ReadLeadRun.org #nationallibraryweek #read #reading #library #libraries

do any tech reporters want to ask bluesky what makes charlie kirk jokes bannable while the staff is following a massive user blocklist run by someone pretending to be ted kaczynski

Ossoff: "I have zero interest in running for president in 2028. I love serving the state of Georgia. Let's keep our eyes on the ball, folks. We need to win decisively in Georgia and every battleground state and every competitive US House district this fall."

They paused Oversight Committee hearings the minute we started getting answers about the Epstein files. Now it’s “roundtables”: no rules, no oaths, no subpoenas. You do the math. Because the moment accountability shows up, they shut it down. The survivors deserve better.

This is loser behavior.

Virginia Woolf, more than a hundred years ago:

This was never about the worst of the worst. We have continually demanded answers about how many of our children were taken into federal detention. Trump’s DHS has continually refused to give us information. sahanjournal.com/immigration/...

Congrats on “opening” a strait that was open six weeks ago, and all it cost was at least 13 dead service members, thousands of dead Iranian civilians, tens of billions in taxpayer dollars, our loss in global standing, and the Iranian regime’s increase in power. Phenomenal work.

Holy shit, I have NEVER been more excited for a movie.

"There's only one majority in this country and that's the working class." —Zohran Mamdani

A convicted felon as President of the United States talking about removing criminals is the very definition of hypocrisy.

DOJ demanded voter files from all 50 states. DOJ sued 31 states for refusing their demand. My law firm intervened to protect voters in those cases. DOJ is now 0-5. My firm is 5-0. Lesson: When we fight we win.

Missouri's murder rate is 73% HIGHER than California’s. No amount of right-wing spinning can change reality: our state is investing in prevention, enforcement, and is holding criminals accountable. The U.S. Senator from Missouri should fix his own failed policies before lecturing us.

Trump nixed the fundin of catholic charities all across the board. Probably as a result of his conflict with the pope. Those charities overwhelmingly feed and care for homeless children all around the world. If Trump wants to pretend he's better than the pope, that ain't the way, Donnie!

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) made a head-turning claim on X Monday about how President Donald Trump's Immigration and Customs Enforcement deployment to airports is already producing results — but this claim turned out to be a fabrication on multiple levels.

We only need 3.5% of the population to turn out. That's roughly 12.22 million people nationwide. If we can't get 3.5% to engage, then we deserve whatever comes next.

Workers must unite to bankrupt the people keeping Trump in office. That's our only hope now.
