"Declining enrollment... parents afraid to drop kids at school... people with LEGAL status afraid to go to graduation... it removes their hopefulness... performance suffers when they're worried about their parents." "FRACTURED" series on impacts of ICE: www.youtube.com/@fracturedst...

@jordanklepper.bsky.social finds out that Texans have more in common with James Talarico than they'd like to admit. Jordan's new special, Red Flags, premieres tonight after The Daily Show at 11:30pm ET on Comedy Central

The level of hatred and harassment that Trump is directing at Ilhan Omar is appalling. He's inciting some disturbed person to commit violence against her. The entire Republican Party already has blood on its hands, and it's eager for more.

Former U.S. Ambassador Warns Trump's Foreign Aid Cuts Are Handing China a Global Victory Ambassador Luis G. Moreno joins Brian Daitzman to explain how dismantling USAID threatens humanitarian programs, American national security, and U.S. influence across the world. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Sow...

And recall that Gen. Kelly bought this book while he was chief of staff because he wanted to understand, and wanted others in the White House to understand, the nature of Trump's psychiatric disorders 👉👉 www.abebooks.com/first-editio...

In the history of all the things that never happened, this never happened the most. SMH. Politicians lie. These politicians lie so often it seems like breathing.

Former US Intelligence Officials Warn Trump Is Following an Autocrat’s Playbook More than 400 former US intelligence and national security officials warn that Trump’s use of executive power is pushing the United States toward authoritarianism. theintellectualistofficial.substack.com/p/former-us-...

I often think about the small town in Georgia where I spotted a golf cart Xing sign. I asked the city manager why it was there, he said that a growing # of residents had been using golf carts in lieu of cars to save money. A classic case of "disruption" (in the b-school sense of the word).

Despite being in effect for 237 years, the U.S. constitution has been formally amended just 27 times. #ConstitutionDay #USConstitution

Back then, Bush and Giuliani were right when they affirmed that American Muslims are simply fellow Americans—and today’s Trump-radicalized GOP is wrong. It’s as simple as that.

Everybody at whatever that is in Dallas tonight thinks Joe Biden is president right now.

Walmart spent $43.4B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2025, enough to give each of its 2.1M workers annual bonuses of $2,953. Last year, retiring CEO Doug McMillon pocketed $29.2M — his largest payday ever and 958x Walmart's median worker pay of $30,520. Textbook corporate greed.

A recent survey found that 92% of U.S. adults have delayed or avoided medical care due to high costs. Meanwhile, a new study from Yale estimates that Medicare for All would save over 114,000 lives and $1 trillion a year. If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have universal healthcare.

Social Security turns 91 today, but thanks to rising inequality it may not live to see many more birthdays. I used to be a Social Security trustee — here's how we can fix it without cutting benefits or raising the retirement age.

If Trump were a foreign asset, how would he act any different, example #1103

Authors and journalists are doing more first-person (hello 2010s blogging) and embracing "mistakes" in writing to prove they're not chatbots. There's even an “anti-Grammarly" app that leaves in typos and signs off "sent from my iPhone" to create more authenticity: www.wired.com/story/more-t...

Last year, Vance Boelter shot and killed a Democratic state rep and her husband. He was sentenced this week to consecutive life sentences. Maybe now’s a good time for some accountability for the Republicans who peddled disgusting conspiracy theories about the slayings?

Felicitación España!!

The grasshopper gets it — divide and conquer. Today's oligarchs use the same playbook. But together, we have all the power. Watch.

We’re built different in Minnesota 💪🏽💙

🔥 WATCH: “AN ABSOLUTE LIE.” @lukerussert.bsky.social dismantles Trump’s rigged election claims by pointing out Trump was in power when he claims it happened, and he WON when he wasn’t — and Republicans control Georgia, where @ossoff.bsky.social & @reverendwarnock.bsky.social won.

"The rich claim to be victimized just to attack the marginalized. Is one percent really worth more than all the sick and poor?" What kind of America are we becoming? More importantly, what kind of America do we want to build for the next generation? hopenotfearproject.org/our-anthem/

For nearly a hundred years in this publication (and long before that elsewhere) people have worried that new technologies could alter what it means to be human.

Trump’s tantrum couldn’t stop us — our bipartisan housing bill is now law! This landmark legislation will make it easier to build more affordable housing and stop Wall Street from buying up homes. Proud to get this done.

From @hcrichardson.bsky.social Democratic Socialists are not communists or socialists.Democratic Socialists call for a robust system of private enterprise, alongside gov control of the aspects of society required for people to participate in the economy on a level playing field.

Republicans in Congress handed out over $1 trillion in tax cuts to the top 1% — and they slashed over $1 trillion from health care and food assistance. Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” is the single largest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in one law in American history.

“Abortion bans don’t stop abortions, but they do kill people. They kill women, in higher numbers, but in many of the same, preventable ways, that these women were dying before. All of which was completely and utterly predictable.” - @amylittlefield.bsky.social www.thenation.com/article/soci...

Lots of chatter re: NYT's expose on car bloat. Want to do something locally to nudge people away from big, harmful models? Consider parking. Cities like Montreal and Paris charge SUV owners more to park on the street. In MTL (below) many car owners support it b/c big cars take up more curb space.

"It’s easy to see why Trump loathes Obama, whose intellectual and verbal acuity, graciousness, class, and real accomplishments Trump could never match."

No serious diplomat would have signed a doc that (1) commits someone else (Israel) to doing things they didn't agree to, and (2) promises to not issue threats and then issues threats. Hands the other side leverage. Maybe a corrupt son-in-law and real estate investor buddy weren't the best choice.

Today, on Father’s Day, I’m reminded that a father’s words can shape a child’s entire world. To every dad and father figure showing up and lifting up your kids in a beautiful way—thank you. op: @pubity

“In this country, we have no ‘other people.’ We are American people, all of us.” This 1940s film warning against bigotry and fascism is more relevant now than ever.

Thoughts about the robots taxi and autonomous vehicles… Why not we have an autonomous city bus? So that this driver can do a several tasks at the same time? I mean- supporting the disabled people who need support in the bus, checking with people to pay bus fare and at the same time- driving the bus?

This is Trump’s long game. We’ve spent years cracking down on fraudsters. It’s a serious issue - but this has been his plan all along. He’s politicizing the issue to defund programs that help Minnesotans. www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/hhs...

Thank you Congressman Neguse for laying it plain.

Ohhh! Burn!!
