There's no forgiving this. No living it down. It's a stain on our humanity. When all this is over, the monsters who did this should be pariahs. And the soulless thugs who cheered it on while dehumanizing Haitian immigrants should be reminded of what they did every day of their lives.

I would just like to reiterate:

Required inspiration for the months and years to come. Professor Snyder is an indispensable voice giving us tools to use. snyder.substack.com/p/on-tyranny...

Openly selling insider access.

President Theodore Roosevelt, as if speaking of Donald Trump 116 years ago.

Well said. Trump probably knows this. He likes to pretend he's a big man whatever chance he gets though. It's getting old. So is he.

Fun fact for American politicians. Canada’s forests are the size of all these countries COMBINED: Portugal. France. Spain. Germany. Poland. UK. Sweden. Norway. Finland. Denmark. Italy. Greece. Netherlands. Switzerland. Austria. Belgium. Get out your rake.

Trump installs fence: Reflecting Pool finally secure from dangerous threat of being seen.

No Father’s Day is complete without this video. At the 1992 Olympic Games in Barcelona, Redmond tore his hamstring in the 400 metres semi-final but continued the race limping and, with assistance from his father, managed to complete a full lap of the track as the crowd gave him a standing ovation.

Obama/JCPOA vs. Trump's Iran 'deal'

A brand new bridge between Detroit and Canada is finished and ready to open. It would speed up traffic for millions of trucks, cut delays for American businesses, and help the auto industry that employs people in every state. There is just one problem. Donald Trump won’t let it open. Here is why.

I hate this

This x 1000

People laughed when Trump said the war would only end with unconditional surrender but he's a man of his word and he has now surrendered unconditionally

Trump’s lies are designed to wear you down. But here's what they don't understand — weariness is not surrender. We can be tired and still show up. “We’re not going to let him win by losing faith in our ability to fight back,” @marcelias.bsky.social says.

Now that Platner has won the primary, I want to be clear. When I said “vote blue no matter who” in 2016, 2020, and 2024, I meant it. I’m worried about Platner, but if you say “vote blue no matter who” in Maine, I hope you’ll extend the same courtesy to other Dems. I hope we beat Collins.

I wonder what the polling looks like for using 1.8 billion dollars of Americans’ taxes to pay off political supporters who broke the law.

Timothy Snyder’s ‘On Freedom’ is a masterpiece. It is sad how far the west is from living into these clear and wise ideas. Justice is possible if we can see and reach freedom through #solidarity. @timothysnyder.bsky.social

I am so happy to see this. Mary Simon was a wonderful GG and Louise Arbour will succeed her with dignity and principle. We can be so proud of these two women. #canada strong and free. #GG

The Founders fought a revolution so we wouldn’t be ruled by one man. Mike Johnson is surrendering that fight each day.

Many of you are asking how you can help me. My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tel everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket for free and share its content with everyone you know. Thanks. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

Can someone let the AP know that violating court orders is not a sign of "executive power. " It is a sign of contempt, lawlessness and authoritarianism.

Reposting this. The #cruelty is their favourite ploy

"there was a much more violent man already in the ballroom. That is Trump. Trump decried Allen as a “lone wolf whackjob” but let’s be clear, a lone wolf whackjob with a few weapons under his jacket is nothing compared with the threat posed by a whackjob who controls the world’s most potent military"

'no president in our modern history has done more to promote division or violence in the U.S. than Trump. He has made racism and sexism the policy in his administration, sent troops into America’s streets targeting and abusing countless innocent victims to date, and actively promoted violence..."

Is there a list of journalists who attended the WHCD?

Right. Other countries won't be throwing out the scientific method anytime soon.

Succinct description of #orban and why #republicans admire him so much. This is the road they plan to emulate. youtube.com/shorts/ZMK26...

A bleak day, but oddly the sun is shining in my yard and the birds are singing. Time to get outside for a while.

Six Supreme Court justices, the Roberts court majority, were very concerned about the risks of Donald Trump personally, and a future president hypothetically, not being able to commit crimes without consequence. It was a top priority for them, and they used their power to ensure it wouldn’t happen.

Bleak, but feels true.

When will they actually read a book?

BREAKING: Crime reports are out for Q1 2026 New York City with historic results NYC under Mayor Mamdani records the fewest shootings and murders IN HISTORY • Major Crime: ⬇️ 5.3% • Robbery: ⬇️ 8% • Burglaries: ⬇️ 20.6% • Murders: ⬇️ 28% His approval rating has gone from +38 to +48. This Is Leadership.

No Kings in Utqiaġvik (Barrow) Alaska!

Walz: The president said it's a bunch of radicals. You're damn right we've been radicalized. Radicalized by compassion, radicalized by decency, radicalized by due process, radicalized by democracy.

Maine’s signage is on point.
