I think this point is so important.

David Kaye@davidakaye.bsky.social

we're going to need a long-term plan, with broad political appeal, for ending impunity & holding the trump administration accountable for its crimes, malfeasance & cruelties. not 'tit-for-tat' but an american version of transitional justice. my take in @slate.com 👇

By golly, J.D.V. and DJT actually did it; practically overnight, they turned the Titanic around, squared it up, and collided head on into that ol' demon iceberg. Amazing skippers, those two.

M. Night Shyamalan's YouTube channel (which is something he has now) came out of nowhere with this great line.

This is the first enunciation of the necessity for separation of the Church and the State. In 1747; by Denis Diderot, one of the architects of the French Enlightenment. I think time has cleaned up his colorful pronouncement.

Pasadena, CA NO KINGS RALLY... Perhaps 600-800 people, dispersed on four corners of Colorado & Fair Oaks. A great band whooping it up. Of course the horn section was taken up b y the plentiful cars honking gin support. It felt good to be doing something.

❗❗❗Mark Zuckerberg's meta just suspended the No Kings Instagram account. I just rushed back from my local No Kings to jump on this. Bottom line, would be helpful for all pro-No Kings folks to elevate the issue and help us get the word out about No Kings today. The Nerd Reich strikes again.

The Kiss of Death. All of Los Angeles loved them. They had just won, back to back ,2 of the most exciting World Series of all time. I mean beating the G.D.Yankees, sweet. But going 7 against the Bluejays. My God, every play, walk, pitch mattered. In the end no one cared who won. Both deserved it.

This is such a good idea; pass it on....

This is a good call. Finnish Foreign Minister Elina Valtonen is calling for a complete, EU-wide ban on Russian tourist visas until Moscow ends its war of aggression in Ukraine. Valtonen urged all Member States to implement a unified, tighter visa policy to stop Russian tourism across Europe.

This is a very powerful inditement of all the anti-immigrant forces in America & Europe; over the lat 400 years. Heed its wisdom, its simple humanity.

Sir Ian McKellen orates 'The Stranger's Case' from 'Sir Thomas More' by Shakespeare about the Evil May Day xenophobic riot of 1517 in London. This passage was written 400 years ago, but times never change. Humanity refuses to change its unwarranted bias against 'others'.

Pay Attention fellow Californians; the Menacing Barbarians are on the rampage.

Rep. Pete Aguilar@aguilar.house.gov

Reports that ICE agents are being told to “go after anybody” in California are alarming. ICE is violently terrorizing our neighborhoods. House Democrats will continue to demand oversight over this out of control agency. Accountability is coming.

Run through the finish line! We have this…if!

🚨Democrats are now favored to retake the Senate in Nate Silver’s latest model. The generic ballot has surged to D+8.9 — and D+9.6 among likely voters, the strongest Dem position yet. Maine and Iowa are moving our way. The map is expanding. The momentum is real. Let’s finish the job. #BlueWave2026

True, that: 32% of the USA pretends not to care. Call it “willful ignorance”; which, you should know, is not a legal defense.

The guy that had all those deranged ads of himself with “Paid for by U.S. Government” stamped on it air this weekend doesn’t seem to be all there?

In 9 months, Zohran Mamdani has: -Secured millions in worker restitution from DoorDash and UberEats -Launched the first stage of his universal childcare program -Cracked down on bad landlords -Balanced NYC's budget without cutting major social services This is what leadership looks like.

There is a clear cycle of corruption between the Trump administration and the companies that run his for-profit detention centers.   Delaney Hall must be shut down for good.

This looks important enough to follow through on....

In case you didn't already know about Elno's latest personal data-hoovering website, Snopes took a look. As mentioned before, a much better alternative for checking your voting info is this one, run by the League of Women Voters: vote411.org

You asked, “What about the 18 American service members & 758 wounded?”: Well, Trump called them “small potatoes”. That’s how a madman, a Capt. Ahab thinks.

Katie Phang@katiephang.bsky.social

This fossil fuel-loving fool is so casual about an illegal war with Iran that’s costing American taxpayers more than $1 billion a day. What about the 18 American servicemembers dead and 758 wounded?

Melville knew the score....“I’ll try a pagan friend, thought I, since Christian kindness has proved but hollow courtesy. ... If there yet lurked any ice of indifference towards me in the Pagan's breast, this pleasant, genial smoke we had, soon thawed it out, and left us cronies”
