A man picking up his kid from school is far less dangerous than our government that routinely jeopardizes the safety of our communities by exciting violence and even murdering people in the streets

The Trump regime quietly handed a $26M lease to cronies for an ICE facility on a contaminated farm. How a federal judge caught them burying the environmental review and delivered an "absurd" smackdown: www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trump-dare...

The House voted earlier this week 216 to 211 to block California from regulating the emissions of ships docked at ports. Congress shouldn't have a say in that at all. It's such an abuse of power (and attack on the environment as well). Cuellar, Davis, and Gonzalez joined Republicans.

It's easy to forget that the whole purpose of the Republican Party is to distract voters daily with such irrelevant nonsense that we never have conversations about how to actually move the country forward. Can you imagine a US politician who was only willing to discuss *policy*?

And you know who spent the last 40 years convincing us that politics should be entertainment? For-profit corporate media. That's right—if you work in corporate media, you're the reason this country is collapsing. You gave us entertainment when what we really needed were leaders.

We live in a world where the incumbent HHS Secretary delivers a keynote at a conference that attacks the polio vaccine and where our incoming surgeon general owns stock in tobacco companies and sells “herbals.” This is deeply abnormal. Save our ship. @nicollewallace.bsky.social

A group of U.N.-backed experts has found "reasonable grounds" to believe that U.S. forces committed war crimes during the conflict against Iran, pointing to two airstrikes including one that hit a primary school.

Expanding the Supreme Court is a popular idea, pass it on

Guessing we'll be seeing a lot of this in the coming months www.wsj.com/tech/ai/hack...

It is time for Bob Kraft and Ed Sheeran to find out. Do not buy patriots gear. Boycott every advertiser that works with his stadium (especially Gillette - and tell them why - publicly) Don't go to any Ed concert. Being a genocide supporter is about to have financial and social consequences.

Bari Weiss has plunged CBS News into ratings calamity. —"Evening News" has posted worst ratings of 21st century —"CBS Mornings" has posted worst ratings of 21st century —And now "60 Minutes" has posted worst ratings of 21st century More in @status.news: www.status.news/p/60-minutes...

Mike Johnson's decision to send the House home early — again — is fueling an increasingly bitter feud with GOP Rep. Thomas Massie over whether the speaker is using the calendar to dodge politically painful votes.

No company, and I mean NONE, should ever have the right to surveil us to decide what to charge us for a good or service, or to market their good or service to us. That should be 100% ILLEGAL! No company needed that shit 15 years ago. They don’t need it now.

As children around the world begin a new school year, 2.6 million Afghan girls remain barred from secondary education—and the Taliban is reshaping what boys learn, too.

If only it had been this way. Justice denied 👇 👇 👇 👇

This is not law enforcement. This is unchecked and unlawful violence by agents of the federal government. Chasing down, pepper spraying, and beating up teenagers—who are U.S. citizens—does not keep our communities safe. This brutality must end. www.thedailybeast.com/horrifying-v...

33 Dems voted to cannex our Constitutional free speech rights to protect Israel. All 32 should be primaried big time in 2028. For now, we focus on winning every race and defeating every Republican. But 2028 is coming. And we won’t forget what these Dems were willing to do to us.

“WE HAVE TO SHOVE ACCOUNTABILITY DOWN THEIR F***ING THROATS.” 🔥🔥 Katie Phang delivers a fiery sign-off on today’s episode of Sidebar with Katie Phang: “I don’t want any of you to ever think that we can’t get through this. But I want us to thrive, not just survive.”

EXCLUSIVE: The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe told Democracy Docket that it hasn’t received an invitation from the Trump administration to observe the midterms. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

He's not got any idea what he's even voting on. He has to be told how to vote. He's incapacitated. He's incapable of representing the people of Kentucky who are currently being taxed without representation.

In Alligator Alcatraz, detainees were forced into small outdoor cages for hours at a time. In Camp East Montana, detainees report beatings from guards and denial of medical care. In Delaney Hall, detainees report unsafe drinking water and retaliatory abuse for speaking up. Unimaginable cruelty.

Just a random reminder that it's a moral outrage we're the only industrialized country without paid family and medical leave.

KAEPERNICK: The part that I hope people take away in this moment is what Robert Kraft and what they’re saying by denying Macklemore is they are openly colluding. They also want people to know that if you take an action that they don’t agree with, they will come for you.

Massie exposes the hypocrisy: Some members get to vote against bills they know will pass, giving them a convenient campaign talking point without changing the outcome.

JUST NOW: A confused, clearly not-there McConnell votes “AYE” after almost voting NO with Dems but getting *corrected* by handlers around him

…

Russia has been providing Iran targeting intel to blow our bases and assets to smithereens, while also paying for the asshole Jr.’s wedding. Square that circle for me.

The man who won't let you have paid sick leave or health care returns to Congress after getting free health care and 90 days paid sick leave

Ed Sheeran is proof you can be worth hundreds of millions of dollars — and still be an indentured servant to wealthy supremacists.

Macklemore said “Free Palestine” onstage. Days later, he was dropped from Ed Sheeran’s tour. Sheeran says he’s “apolitical.” But when billionaire Robert Kraft demanded Macklemore be removed, Sheeran complied. He didn’t stay out of politics. @kaivanshroff.bsky.social zeteo.com/p/ed-sheeran...

Absolute suck sh*t, Ed Sheeran

Macklemore and Ed Sheeran. One stands up. The other stands down.

At this rate Ed Sheeran is gonna be the house band for 60 Minutes

Lukas Graham, another support act on Ed Sheeran’s tour, also now withdrawing from the tour.

My advice for Ed Sheeran regarding Macklemore and the Palestinian people.

How silly to not read the room. Super jaded take Amazing opportunity to be the HERO for not performing. One took advantage of it and will reap huge rewards and be remembered kindly. Ed... not so much. Still richie rich but spat upon for now on.
