The top five US broadcasters are effectively boycotting coverage of Donald Trump in protest at his decision to ban three news outlets from the White House. It meant that Trump's comments at the ribbon-cutting ceremony for a new White House helipad were completely inaudible. jrnl.ie/7169149

This is Holly. Every day for the past 5 years, she picks out a stick and brings it to her favorite spot for “zen time.” While her stick may change, her routine never does. 13/10 (IG: hollythebluestaffy)

Protecting workers from extreme heat will save lives. Kudos to Mayor Mamdani for demonstrating what good government actually looks like.

Today I signed an Executive Order for every worker exposed to extreme heat on the job. It requires multilingual heat safety guidance for workers, a review of construction site heat safety practices, and heat illness prevention plans at every mayoral agency.

I bet Chuck Schumer and his billionaire donors are really, really worried about Zohran Mamdani taking over the Democratic party. I love this so much. 😂

Take care of your employees, and they will take care of your business. Paraphrasing Richard Branson.

Employers spend almost $1.7 billion a year hiring union-busting consultants and law firms to stop their workers from organizing for better wages and working conditions. Imagine if they spent that money on their workers instead?

This is Bruce. He was rescued by two tour boat operators after his kayak broke loose and was carried out to sea by strong winds. 13/10 for all (IG: farne_islands)

Ossoff: He’s trying to put his face on the money. He's building a monument to himself . But see, Atlanta, he's doing these things now because no one will honor him when he’s gone… because he's a failed president and a national disgrace.

American workers just took home their smallest share of the nation's wealth since 1947 — even as corporate profits soar. Why? This chart has the answer.

A local elderly man has been keeping this puppy alive for 2 months since it showed up in his area. I'm not sure if we can save it. Some sort of brain issue for sure. Our vets are on the case and said the best thing it can have now is time.

I watched this hilarious show local TV show last night called “Only In Monroe.” The host was really funny. He should have a show on streaming.

This is Edward. He was given 6 months to live after being found as a stray. His family was determined to give him the best few months possible, so they introduced him to the ice cream truck. That was 27 months ago. 14/10 #SeniorPupSaturday (IG: magnificent_foster_dogs)

NEW: The Colorado Democratic Party has formally condemned and censured Governor Jared Polis for granting clemency to Tina Peters. Polis is hereby banned from speaking or being honored at party events. 90% of CDP central committee members voted to reprimand Polis.

Rather than conclude that democrats are bad because people like Fetterman and Polis are democrats, I prefer to conclude that people like Fetterman and Polis are not democrats and they need to get the hell out of our party.

The look on his face vs the look on her face says it all. Looks to me like Trump knew what was happening, she didn't. She was the first to duck under the tables. He sat there smirking like the fraud he is.
