That guy behind you needs to borrow your pencil sharpener.

NEW: Vivek Ramaswamy says Amy Acton being a victim of childhood sexual abuse makes her “flawed” while defending his ad featuring her estranged mother. “In politics sometimes it's a tough sport.”

MINNESOTA: “I don’t think about myself. The youth are the most innocent. Anything you can do to save them is worth it.” ♥️ Endless stories attack the MN Somali-American community— but Ebro Ahmed🦸🏽‍♂️saves a bus 🚌 full of kids and stories mostly leave out that he’s Somali? 🤔

This is horrific and inexcusable behavior by the cop and the AG!

JUST IN: The police shooting that killed 1-year-old Kohen Wiley as he sat in his mother’s lap in a Walmart parking lot in Senatobia, Miss., in June “was justified,” Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch’s office said on Monday. Her office will not charge the white officer who shot the child.

This is such a perfect response!

Students from North Carolina’s A&T were seen marching back to their HBCU after traveling an hour each way to vote on the first day of early voting after their campus polling site was purposely removed by the fascist MAGA republican Guilford County Elections Board. They are the future, Proud AF. 💙👊

I left work early today to pick my kids up from school rather than sending them to the after school program. School shootings just hit differently when you have kids. How are we letting this continue!?

I’m not sure we are going to make it through the next 27 days…

I know everyone’s jaded and exhausted by the continual parade of madness, but this is the president of US openly inciting racist violence against an entire community of immigrants. (w/ alt text)

This not far from where I grew up and it hard to explain how much this enrages me.

The MAGA regime recently killed the largest ancient 250 year old “Grandmother” Cottonwood tree in Arizona’s indigenous territory just to expand the orange felon’s fucking wall. I’ll never forgive anyone who chose this evil.

Every single person involved needs prison time including palantir employees.

NEW: DHS agents tracked people observing ICE arrests, photographed them, ran their plates, pulled personal information, and added them to a Palantir database, according to newly unsealed court filings. w/ @regret.bsky.social

🚨 BREAKTHROUGH: 18-year-old Arya Satheesh from Ireland has developed a plant-based plastic that can biodegrade and release an enzyme that helps break down other plastic waste. A plastic that could actually help clean up plastic waste.

I just got a class action lawsuit settlement alert from CVS. Apparently I’m entitled to $5 cash (or maybe even $10). I’m like, please, CVS gives me $5 for walking through the door at 3 pm on a Tuesday! You want to give me $5 for exposing my personal health info?

Quilters, immigrant rights advocates and an interfaith coalition unveiled the Stolen Neighbors Quilt at the Minnesota State Capitol on Tuesday to honor Minnesotans detained by federal immigration enforcement - and advocate on their behalf.

I approve of this Trump speech.

LMFAO -- Trump is holding an event at the White House right now but there's no audio because the press pool isn't there. The Newsmax host notes that this is an example of Trump's attacks on the press "backfiring just a little bit"

He is not wrong. "There are reasonable grounds to believe that the reported 68 attacks that killed 223 people constituted crimes against humanity of murder under customary international law" - United Nations Special Rapporteur on U.S. Killing “Narco-Terrorists” at Sea www.ohchr.org/sites/defaul...

For years I’ve been trying to explain to my evangelical friends that banning abolition only makes things worse. Their response is always, “prove it.” Now they’ve proved it for themselves.

This is probably an unpopular opinion, but I don’t really care if there is betting in sports. In fact, professional baseball in particular was originally created hand-in-hand will gambling and pool halls. I DO care if gambling impacts outcomes.
