Posting this as my vanity wants to see if I can pin it.

"'I asked a man in prison once how he happened to be there and he said he had stolen a pair of shoes. I told him if he had stolen a railroad he would be a United States Senator.'"

Canada should temporarily rename Lake Ontario to Lake Obama.

In the past week I've driven a pretty good number of miles in both rural Indiana and rural Kentucky. I didn't see a single Trump sign or flag. Not one.

If Taylor Swift really wanted a private wedding venue she should’ve considered the National Mall.

Chef's kiss, salute, tears, all of it

Hey @denversummitfc.bsky.social, as I understand it you haven't settled on a mascot yet. I'm your guy! A mountain is tall, takes up a lot of space, is bald on top, and is old. I too all those things! Happy to wear a foam suit or just walk around in street clothes with a beer. DMs open.

Look, I don’t know which one of you shaved and boiled Fred Flintstone and then dressed him in a suit made for corpses in 1950, but I do admire your resourcefulness even as I’m horrified by your actions and their results.

it'll be back in three days

This is how Bruce Springsteen opened his concert in Los Angeles last night. 🔥🔥 Footage from @margaret_nagle on Threads.

If people are finding out as a late as now how Trumpism is wannabe fascism, they should be accepted in a big pro-democracy, pro-pluralism, pro-equality tent. Their belated dissent is welcome. Democracy is in danger and this is not the time for the usual holier-than-thou approach!

My fear now is that people will get bored of the news story of what’s happening in Minnesota. It’s a very active situation. Remember 5yo Liam Ramos? More kids have been taken from his school and last I heard he’s still in Texas. If there’s been a drawdown, no one I know has noticed it.

Oh our Minneapolis, I hear your voice Singing through the bloody mist We’ll take our stand for this land And the stranger in our midst Directed by Thom Zimny Edited by Thom Zimny and Samuel Shapiro Production Footage: Pam Springsteen and Thom Zimny

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

I filmed this backstage at a Dead & Company show, not long after the Parkland shooting. Bob Weir had asked to meet a group of student survivors — and the care, time, and respect he showed them was unforgettable. He always showed up to inspire the next generation. Fare thee well to a true legend.

Tate got some toast. He carried it around for over an hour before finally eating it. Or perhaps it's under the bed.

Sure hope Mizzou beats this expansion team

Hacked Denver Traffic Boards Say "Fuck ICE" to Drivers

Veterans for Peace are in DC today protesting Trump’s military parade, cuts to VA benefits, and US military being deployed on America’s streets. “BENEFITS NOT BULLSHIT!” LFG. 🔥

In just one week: A GOP president deployed Marines in a U.S. city, called for a Democratic governor’s arrest, the GOP Speaker called for him to be tarred and feathered, a Democratic senator was handcuffed, and two Democratic legislators were shot in their homes.

The federal government is taking over the California National Guard and deploying 2,000 soldiers in Los Angeles — not because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle. Don't give them one. Never use violence. Speak out peacefully.

must be incredibly frustrating and disheartening to have federal funding that was promised to you for important work suddenly and arbitrarily ripped away

Repost if YOU are going to a No Kings Day rally on Trump’s birthday, June 14th. This is a great summary of what the events are for and why it’s important to TURN OUT! Please watch and share.

Dear NBA, I know it looks bad if your supposed MVP goes out in Round 2. Especially with all the other upsets. But if you wanted OKC to advance, just let us know Call me a homer but this officiating difference between SGA and Jokic is ridiculous. #NBAPlayoffs #NBA

It is my birthday and a Nuggets win would be a nice present. Also I have covid so c'mon universe throw me a bone here. LFG! #denvernuggets #milehighplayoffs

The protests are not for Trump to see, they are so you can all see each other and grow. It's not the protest itself that tyrants are afraid of, but the networks and community you can grow from them. Your strength is your unity and that's why the enemy thrives by demoralizing and dividing you. #3E

“Use promo code: FAFO.”

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

Emergency video: it’s time to start making plans. Either the house steps up to defend the constitution, or our generation does. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/emergency-...

Crucial point made here — we should learn from others rather than imagine that everything is new and therefore shocking and impossible to resist. www.newyorker.com/news/the-wee...

Meadowlark and Long's peak

One of the most clarifying things I've seen in the past few weeks is "de-escalate all conflict that is not with the enemy."

i’m of the view that it would be genuinely idiotic for the white house to invoke the insurrection act if it wants to stay in power. if you are going to call out troops to confront throngs of protesters, you need to be extremely confident that they will obey every order given to them.

Longmont Colorado!!

Big crowd in Longmont CO!

Longmont, Colorado turned out! #Colorado #Resistors #handsoff
