Amy Acton’s mom allowed her daughter to be raped & had her children taken from her. This is all documented. She currently features in a campaign ad for Vivek Ramaswamy, calling her daughter a liar. JD Vance endorses the ad. Think about that.

Talarico: I've heard credible reports that Ken Paxton has a serious medical condition that causes clinical levels of cowardice. People are concerned. He has asked for proof of life from me. I'm asking for proof of spine from him.

Right-wing Christian nationalist podcasters are using the tragic Massachusetts case of Lindsay Clancy to make a radical argument: women should lose the right to vote, end no-fault divorce, and live under strict male supervision. Here is a breakdown of what they are saying on video 🧵👇

What. The. Actual. Fuck does any of this culture war bullshit have to do with socialism? JV Vance, the couch-fucker, is an idiot.

Q: How do you define socialism personally? JD VANCE: I think in reality what it actually means in the American context is you want to replace American workers with foreigners workers, and you want boys to play in girls' sports

I’m loving the “well akshually he didn’t REALLY mean let Iran take out Los Angeles and San Diego” excuses today. Cool. Explain the assholes in the crowd who thought it was fucking hilarious. Deplorables wasn’t strong enough.

Megyn Kelly is welcome to take a seat directly on the core of the nearest nuclear reactor.

Media Matters for America@mmfa.bsky.social

Megyn Kelly: "...this is probably a first for her. She's probably thrilled to be so admired because she clearly didn't grow up the incredibly beautiful one."

Can we ask why the fuck Russia is conducting research on a disease that is almost non-existent? Is it just their natural tendency to be altruistic? Somehow, I doubt that.

Alt National Park Service@altnps.bsky.social

Russian officials say she died from pneumonia of an unknown cause, and preliminary tests found no evidence linking her illness to the pathogens she worked with. There are still unanswered questions, but pneumonic plague has not been confirmed at this time.

Jack Smith made it crystal clear that his investigation was sound and lawful, that the president had committed crimes and that the GOP attacks on him were the actual weaponization of our justice system. He showed courage and moral clarity and continues to be one of the heroes of this moment.

Every other member of the G20 should boycott the meeting. Have some guts, stand up to both Trump and Putin.

MAKS 26 👀🇺🇦@maks23.bsky.social

🇪🇺🇺🇸 Kaja Kallas: Trump's inviting Putin to the G20 was very hard to hear, because considering that even a few days ago, there were Russian intelligence officers charged for murders of Americans on American soil.

These ass-clowns say the dumbest shit ever in defense of Dear Leader. If we stopped bombing Iran and withdrew the naval blockade, it would end. Period. We're the baddies.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Sen. Jon Husted says he wants the Iran war to end, "but that's not something we necessarily get to choose on our own"

Hmmmm, I think I'm starting to see a pattern.

Ron Filipkowski@ronfilipkowski.bsky.social

When confronted by current bad economic data showing things getting worse, Republicans blame Biden. When confronted with polls showing dissatisfaction, they say the polls are wrong. When confronted with election results of voter revolts, they say the elections are rigged.

Billions saved by whom? Certainly not consumers.

Elizabeth Warren@warren.senate.gov

WARREN: You and Kennedy are keeping these pharma deals secret. The companies say they are immaterial. You still want the American people to believe they are a great deal? KLOMP: Billions of dollars have been saved in out-of-pocket transactions— WARREN: Then show me the receipts.

The ONLY up side to this fucking disaster is wait until the Houthis find out what a nightmare it is to maintain those things.

This week’s Supreme Court decision is another reminder of what we are up against heading into November. They can put more obstacles in our way, but they cannot take away our power. Our answer is to show up, make our voices heard, and turn out in numbers that are too big to rig.

Empathy, compassion, these DSAs are just downright awful. /sarcasm/

Dolly Parton used her gift for music to highlight the challenges of poverty, inequality, and struggle in ways that uplifted and inspired working people. “And I told 'em all the story / Momma told me while she sewed / And how my coat of many colors / Was worth more than all their clothes”

Usain Bolt did not need a crash wall to stop him after he set his record. What kind of performative bullshit is this? Why do they even have arms if they’re just going to fall off?

NBC News@nbcnews.com

A Chinese humanoid robot outran Usain Bolt’s 100-meter sprint world record on the opening day of the World Humanoid Robot Games in Beijing, posting a time of 9.39 seconds — 0.19 faster than Bolt’s pace in 2009.
