THIS is delightful from #EmilyElbert All proceeds go to the ACLU. “True power can’t be bought or stolen If you build a wall of hatred, prepare to watch it crumble. We will not be silent, hear our voices roar like thunder, So listen fear monger, your days are numbered.” youtu.be/4Y9TVb8_hbY?...

According to Pete Hegseth: 
  
Iran was completely decimated—until it wasn’t. 
  
Our ammunition stockpiles were great—until he needed more money. 
  
And every problem is Joe Biden’s fault—even though Donald Trump started this war.

an ideologically driven effort to destroy an independent institution and replace its serious and broad-minded approach to american history with MAGA slop

Trump: "I owned the Miss Universe pageant. And Miss Venezuela always did very well in that pageant. So I know something about the country."

I don't care how good a Democratic candidate is, if people don't have faith in democracy, they won't vote. Trump has done incalculable damage to the public trust, and I fear that everyone on my side underestimates the true cost of the destruction.

☠️ ☠️ 👉 I want to see Elon Musk go down. He is a villain. He is the most evil person in the world. Elon Musk is a disgrace & a total embarrassment. I've never wished death upon anyone, but I do wish death to him ❤️ Thank you so much for this report Adam Mockler. @adammockler.com

I gotta say, when I wrote this headline, I didn’t really expect the universe to deliver like THIS

It feels like Versailles got roofied by Temu, woke up in a neon-lit massage parlor off I-95 wearing a fake Rolex, then decided the only responsible next step was to marry the lobby of a Dubai card room in a ceremony officiated by a deranged parrot in a sequined tracksuit. youtu.be/Nc6e1KIHqko?...

⚠️WOKE CONTENT⚠️™️ 🧵Puerto Rico has been a US commonwealth since 1898. I would be remiss not to mention that the island had a history of slavery that lasted longer than slavery in America. Pull up a seat🪑.(cont) #ProudBlue #ResistanceRoots #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory www.nypl.org/blog/2023/09...

This is from April 2025 ... but it's worth reading to the end (imho) ... because in over a year, nothing this regime has done indicates that my assessment then wasn't completely accurate. read.ultraprocessed.news/p/the-presti...

What’s really going on with the Republican Party, are Democrats doing a better job of meeting this moment, and what happens after the midterms heading into 2028? Really cool conversation with @andyostroy.bsky.social. Today’s show.👇 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

When we got back, @azrww.bsky.social and I got a really lovely welcome home in the form of getting to talk to the QAA podcast about our reporting. This excursion was the first time Haley and I got to see each other in person in three years and it just confirmed how fucking good a team we make

‼️DISBAR BLANCHE‼️ July 22, 2026 New York City Bar Association Rise and Resit calls to disbar U.S. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche. Over 100 former federal judges have filed ethics complaints citing conflict of interests, and politicization of the Department of Justice.

Florida GOP State Rep. Paula Stark got kicked off the Nov ballot after a judge denied her last-ditch appeal over missing paperwork. That means House District 47 is now an automatic flip to Democrats. Two Dems will face off in a primary—the winner takes the seat unopposed. GOP self-own of the year.

Seen in Cleveland, Ohio.

Put your money where your mewling, "apologetic" mouth is, Elon. 🤬

She grabbed him during the debate...

Last night Donald Trump released documents accusing China of trying and failing to interfere in the 2020 election. But the documents show that Russia, like in 2016, was actively promoting his candidacy in 2020.

FFS 🤦‍♂️ The Pentagon removed the names of 4 servicemembers who died in Jordan from their official list of casualties. They explain that this is because "their deaths occurred after President Trump declared a cease-fire in the war in April." www.nytimes.com/2026/07/23/u...

“I got carried away” is the excuse for eating a whole sleeve of mint cookies. “I killed children and interfered in elections and incited racial violence” is just a partial list of his crimes. He is a criminal. A villain. Lock him up and liquidate his assets.

Trump will launch new double-digit tariffs on dozens of US trading partners just as the clock runs out Friday on stopgap levies he imposed after a stinging defeat at the Supreme Court. www.npr.org/2026/07/23/g...

2/2 Putting it on CDC.gov does not make it CDC science. It is anti-vaccine HHS leadership hijacking CDC’s credibility to keep eroding vaccine confidence.

From 2003 to 2024, deaths caused by law enforcement in the US rose among adults and children, with non-Hispanic Black males aged 18 to 29 years experiencing the highest rates each year. ja.ma/4vjmbCY

I don't think most Americans have internalized yet how permanent the relational damage is. No, Canada can't trade haymakers with the Trump administration (or any US administration) in a trade war. But can we bleed a few key sectors out, slowly but relentlessly? We might have to try.

(🧵1/2) On this date (July 21) in 2011, a right-wing religious fanatic fatally shot 69 people (average age of 20) and wounded another 32. The gunman’s manifesto expressed hatred of Muslims and “cultural Marxists” (Utøya, Norway): 💔😡💔 #GunsDontMakeUsSafer en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_No...

There are two kinds of people who support this kind of shit: step sweepers and body counters. Step sweepers just don't care to see it or have their lives be inconvenienced by someone else's struggle for survival. Body counters don't want the problem to end, they want to convert them to free labor.
