How extreme is the June 7 Memorandum on federalizing the National Guard? One of several issues: It has NO geographic limit. None. No mention of California or any other state. It's open-ended. Now this from President Trump: "Well, we're going to have troops everywhere."⬇️

I cannot stop wheezing

DeLauro uses her opening statement to tear Russ Vought a new one

Chris Murphy: "We can't be preparing for the 2026 election. It might not come. All of our focus right now has to be on protecting the democracy, about stopping the corruption."

DEAN: What's the tariff on bananas? LUTNICK: Generally 10% DEAN: Walmart has already increased the cost of bananas by 8% LUTNICK: If you build in America, there is no tariff DEAN: We cannot build bananas in America

I'm just glad one of these men has the nuclear codes and the other has all our personal data.

Elon Musk has stopped following Stephen Miller, White House Deputy Chief of Staff, on X after Miller's wife chose Elon, in terms of employment.

According to Republicans, tax cuts for the rich are “pro-growth, pro-family, and pro-America,” while the Inflation Reduction Act is “corporate welfare for progressive special interests." The class warfare-style language is familiar. So are the lies about their “big, beautiful” bill.

Coleman: ICE is out of control. ICE thinks it can intimidate all of us. And it cannot intimidate any of us.

Swalwell: What are we doing here? What in this hearing achieves lowering costs for the American people? Do you know how far you’ve deviated from that goal? This is where you are: today, you will make it easier to deport more American citizen children with cancer.

Joe Biden has congratulated Mark Carney. #cdnpoli #elbowsup

Citadel founder Ken Griffin said President Donald Trump’s trade war has derailed business leaders’ plans to spend the next four years focusing on growth

France, Japan, UK, all helping so that when Americans leave - because 47 will make it so - there’s back up.

I always look forward to funerals too. Good times.

Frost: You want to talk about courts but the highest court in the land told Donald Trump what to do. Facilitate him coming back to the country. And guess what they did? They flipped the bird to the supreme court. That is not the rule of law

Mahmoud Khalil missed the birth of his first child because fascists cannot stand principled people demanding the end of the mass slaughter of Palestinians.

I have to assume that Kristi Noem had $3,000 in cash because she had just sold children to a human trafficking ring, and it would have been $10,000 but she had just made a drop for some Fentanyl that she was on her way to pick up.

I know $3000 seems like a lot of cash but you never know when you need to bribe a chauffeur to bury a pet that made you angry or tip a cop for shooting a brown person

Jessica: There was someone on it who had been picked up as “tren de aragua” because there was a picture of him with a multicolored pistol they were saying was a gun, but it was a toy.

This is deranged. Jan. 6 defendants were repped by one of the best public defender offices in the U.S. They were more likely to be released pretrial & got comparatively light sentences. SCOTUS threw out a bunch of convictions, which almost never happens. They got gold-plated due process!

FLORIDA… Republican Rep. @ByronDonalds turn to hear it from voters…

The Golden Age of Corruption

"Human rights are not only violated by terrorism, repression or assassination, but also by unfair economic structures that create huge inequalities." - Pope Francis

Serious question. Kristi Noem was pictured with a Rolex in El Salvador, and got 3k in cash stolen. She has been on a govt salary for years. Something aint right

TODAY WE MOBILIZED OVER 3 MILLION PEOPLE ACROSS THE NATION!!! This movement has entered the next chapter: the people will mobilize again, and again, until we make a difference. It only takes 3.5% of the population in a sustained resistance in order to make a difference. #50501movement

NEW: Chicago city council passes resolution calling on city Commissioner of Human Resources to exercise discretionary power not to hire any applicant convicted of "crime related to Jan 6, 2021 unlawful activities at the US Capitol, regardless of recent clemency or pardon status"

Criminals deserve due process because due process is literally how we determine whether someone is, *in fact*, a criminal

AOC: I was watching earlier today on TV, someone was saying, “Why are AOC and Bernie going to Idaho?” I’ll give you one simple answer: It’s because you matter

I’ve just posted this video message to members of the DC Bar, urging them to vote *AGAINST* AG Pam Bondi’s brother to be its next president. Please pass this on to anyone who is eligible to vote. www.instagram.com/reel/DIcQFxt...

🏆 @rollingstone.com wins the Headline of the Day Award This is how it’s done. At least someone understands the assignment. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

AOC: We saw Majorie Taylor Greene buy that dip. How much did you make? How much did you make off of people’s despair? How much did you make off of that panic? How much did you make off of that suffering? No more. We can’t accept it

We have the most anti-free speech government in modern American history. (And yet, in true Orwellian fashion, they claim to be champions of free speech.)

In which I explain how someone turned $2.5 million into $70 million in 60 seconds. Either they're the luckiest person on earth or people were trading on insider knowledge about Trump changing his tariff policy. My second newsletter post. data-and-politics.ghost.io/70-million-i...

Trump is engaging in a massive purge of public servants, so why does he want firms to offer them pro bono help? It will legal aid for Trump appointees for when the break the law (also, the firms are told to hire Trump admin alum). They are turning these law firms into Trump law firms.

HAPPENING NOW: Following the Supreme Court's decision requiring the government to "facilitate" the release of Abrego Garcia, a hearing before Judge Paula Xinis is about to begin. I'm in Greenbelt, Maryland for @lawfare.bsky.social Follow along for updates

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name. It is blatantly unconstitutional.

The White House has censored at least two dispatches from press pool reporters this week because they included inconvenient facts that the administration didn't like. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Do not normalize children dying from measles. Measles was previously eliminated in the US, thanks to vaccines. When children die from measles, it means that adults have catastrophically failed to protect them because they have rejected basic science.
