IT’S TIME FOR BLUE STATES TO FIGHT BACK. HARD. Why are we funding a federal government that openly punishes states for not voting for Trump? The Trump administration admitted in court it canceled nearly $8 billion in clean energy grants because the states didn’t vote for him. Blue states only.

💥 This order clearly reflects that a federal judge does NOT just believe what the Acting AG Todd Blanche represents and has ordered him to basically “prove it.”

To make life easier and more affordable in this country, we must confront and fix what's wrong with our political system.

Not the candidate anyone predicted. Not the pick anyone expected. And yet Troy Jackson is polling ahead of Susan Collins before the nomination is even official.

I can't say what I'm really thinking. So I'll just leave this here.

Here we are in 2026 and this song is just as relevant now as it was when it was created. ‘Stop, Hey What's That Sound’ Buffalo Springfield Released December, 1966

It is genuinely bizarre that we’ve become acclimatized to right wingers throwing a tantrum every time a black person (particularly a black woman) is cast in something, but are also supposed to pretend that this is not racism but related to some other substantive concern.

Gary Chambers (Civil Rights Activist) stood up to GOP bullies in Lousiana about redistricting maps. Republicans think they are winning, but it’s not happening. Evil never wins. Remember that.

Trump sent Indiana Republicans a clear message this week: The GOP is now his personality cult — defy the leader at your own peril.

ProPublica and @ctmirror.org have won the Pulitzer Prize for local reporting for the series “On the Hook,” which exposed a wide range of abuses committed by Connecticut towing companies. Listen to reporters Dave Altimari and Ginny Monk and editor Michael Grabell celebrate the win:

ICE Kidnapping Springfield, MA 5/8/26

During his campaign, when Trump said “Make America Great Again,” a lot of Black folks heard “Make America White Again.” That’s why so many of us warned people, and WE WERE RIGHT. 🧵

That’s an ending #satire #sketchcomedy #thefiles

Former Confederate states are trying to lock Black and Brown Americans out of political power.

Someone told me to watch this SNL sketch about America’s “media-opoly.” It feels eerily prophetic given today's media environment. Watch.

Trump’s Iran “talks” just collapsed—because they never existed. Now he’s scrambling to explain why his team isn’t going. It's yet another humiliation for Trump on the global stage.

Ben Cohen, co-founder of Ben & Jerry's, was arrested after confronting Robert F Kennedy Jr about Gaza during a hearing on Capitol Hill: “Congress sent the bombs that kill children in Gaza and paid for them with cuts to Medicaid,” he shouted before his arrest. Follow me if you think this is BS arrest

New Jersey fire stations have become temporary bases for ICE.

Fox's Aishah Hasnie’s call oddly gets cut right as she says Karoline Leavitt's husband leaned over right as the dinner was starting and told her: "You need to be very safe…”

This administration is violating the Constitution and law. Trump & #ICELawlessness puts every one of us at risk. Please talk to friends & family. Please get involved with the midterms & volunteer/donate to Democratic candidates who will impeach him in the House & remove in the Senate. 🧵

One of those formerly young boys has recounted how when he heard one of the young girls being killed in another room, one of the creepy old men assured him, "Don't worry, boys are harder to replace." Donald Trump travels in some depraved circles.

Admitting you f*cked up is an underrated quality.

Jennifer Siebel Newsom: Well, there has historically been a war on women in our country. While we’ve made tremendous progress in terms of gender equity, we are increasingly seeing—especially with the current federal administration—a rollback of women’s rights.

Smart move. Your garbage, not mine: Thailand to return 284 tonnes of e-waste to America share.google/MVXaIpAuBvth...

I can listen to this on a loop all day long, lol. 🤣🤣

French President Emmanuel Macron says France would never take part in operations to unblock the Strait of Hormuz: "We are not party to the conflict and therefore France will never take part in operations to open or liberate the Strait of Hormuz in the current context”

🇺🇦🇬🇧The British Parliament welcomed President Zelenskyy with a standing ovation.

Lieu: "Undocumented immigrants want nothing to do with the govt! To vote, you have to first register. How many undocumented immigrants are gonna go, 'Yes, I'm gonna give all my information to the govt that's maybe trying to deport me. No way!' This is a problem that doesn't exist."

The difference between them and me is that I think safeguarding the integrity of elections means protecting and expanding voting rights, whereas they think it means oppressing voting rights.

I love this for Illinois. And I love this for the rest of us. Juliana Stratton is already on record saying she will NOT support Chuck Schumer as leader if she is elected to the Senate. New energy. New pressure. New reality.

Pretty dark

Let’s be clear on what’s happening here. They’re trying to steal the next election and this is a smoking gun. GOP Senator Mike Lee sees polling that shows Dems gaining ground and the solution isn’t better ideas or better leadership. The solution is rushing to pass the SAVE Act. #SaveActTaxesVoting

That only leaves out #45. Makes perfect sense. 🙄
