I saw this book at Fletcher Free (Burlington, Vermont's public library). When I picked it up and started reading, I remembered I had heard the author speak at EEE.

Rep. Lieu: “The Supreme Court is out of control, out of touch with the American people…This is the most corrupt Supreme Court we’ve seen in our history, and reform is going to come next year."

I watched a three-hour PBS documentary about Richard Nixon last night, and goodness, that man was a charismatic criminal. I wonder how Kissinger and him are spending their time in hell.

Let's be honest. IF TRUMPY can get protections for ALL his taxes and his kids taxes and his businesses gets a free pass on those taxes, WE THE PEOPLE should get the same thing.. Trumpy is literally proving he's above the law.

In his opponents backyard. Standing room only w/ more outdoors due to capacity... Texans are ready for a change... we pray for canvassers, phone dialers, march walkers & more events packed to get those on the fence to come vote Talarico in November. Our state & nation need this change now!

Fired CBS reporter reveals MAGA bosses pressured him to skew news www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...

Despite being under Republican control, the House just defied President Trump on the Iran war. No amount of lying or bullying by the White House can make Americans forget we're paying for a senseless war. Now even some GOP Members of Congress are recognizing they ultimately answer to us - not him.

Good to know. THANK YOU, MAYOR PETE BUTTIGIEG.

At least 51 whales have died along the West Coast already this year. There's a proven immediate solution that could have helped prevent the death of some of these whales: Vessel speed limits. Take action to help make that happen ➡️ biodiv.us/4u7IL0F

Most people know Kenya for wildlife. Far fewer know it already operates one of the cleanest electricity systems on Earth. Around 91% of electricity now comes from renewable sources, while fossil generation has fallen from roughly 48% in 2010 to around 10% in 2025. #Bettrification

We spoke to the creators of a repairable, no tech tractor, which is a direct response to agriculture giant John Deere making it essentially impossible for farmers to repair the tractors themselves. This puts power back in their hands Watch more and subscribe here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=lqwd...

RELEASE THE TRUMP/EPSTEIN FILES!

ABOLISH ICE THEY ARE ONLY HERE TO YEAR GASS, ABDUCT, ASSAULT, SHOOT, AND KILL INNOCENTS. THEY HAVE SHOWN US. THEY CANNOT BE FIXED OR REPAIRED. ABOLISH ICE! ABOLISH ICE! ABOLISH ICE! ABOLISH ICE!

I'm seeing people post and repost, "ICE is not about immigration. ICE is about normalizing a paramilitary force on peaceful streets. Abolish ICE." Y'all, it's about more than one thing.

I totally get it.

Everyone should have free healthcare, regardless of their age or ability to work.

A follow-up to yesterday's OPC critique. "StudioEIS anailed the details, such as the waves in Barack Obama’s close-cropped hair and Michelle’s stylish sheath dress and matching coat, created by fashion designer Isabel Toledo."

There is enough food, just an evul unwillingness to distribute it efficiently and fairly. Same about money.

It shouldn’t be a struggle for anyone to afford food. That shouldn’t be something that we’re okay with as a human species. Everyone should have a decent home to go back to and enough to eat.

Trump-backed candidate in Iowa loses gubernatorial primary. "The three-term representative [Randy Feenstra] outspent [Zach] Lahn, a businessperson and former GOP operative, by nearly $1 million and leaned heavily into his MAGA credentials during the primary." www.politico.com/news/2026/06...

EXCELLENT 'TOON. Depicts exactly what happened.

Excellent article.

In case it wasn’t evident that CBS has been completely transformed to a state funded propaganda network, them literally destroying 60 Minutes and firing journalists for refusing to report outright lies is all the proof you need. CBS is imploding and I couldn’t be more thrilled to see it.

CBS, you made our media be JUST LIKE RUSSIA's.

Right now, after seeing the story about Scott Pelley being fired, I loathe and hate the United States. A country that would willingly ditch journalists who have shown tremendous integrity through the years. It disgusts me to the core of my being. This is just one more straw on my camel's back.

It is a VIOLATION OF THE FREEDOM OF THE PRESS. IT IS A VIOLATION OF THE FREEDOM OF SPEECH. Both UNCONSTITUTIONAL.

Greg Abbott thinks Texans will keep footing the bill for his grift. We disagree. Tonight, during the Spurs-Knicks game, we’re launching our first general election ad—taking aim at the Greg Abbott Corruption Tax. Watch:

Bad times for little Mikey.

IMPEACH. REMOVE. IMPEACH the whole damn gang. The rump maladministration is CORRUPT TO ITS CORE.

Yay, Almost Gov. Haaland!!!!!! Congratulations to you and New Mexico!!!!!! #Pinks

BREAKINGNEWS: Secretary Marco Rubio stated during a congressional hearing that the war with Iran is over. Here is Iran bombing US bases in Kuwait just hours later. We are being led by idiots and liars. 🚨

Yep, We the People are being led by IDIOTS and LIARS. They are really more like PROFESSIONAL LIARS.

📌I won't lie, Deb Haaland's victory in the Democratic primary for New Mexico governor brings me endless joy in this sea of Republican bigotry and corruption. Well done, Ms. Haaland. On to November!

The Republicans and Teabaggers KNEW that the rump is bad, really bad, and they endorsed child-rapist ANYWAY. They KNEW he INCITED AN INSURRECTION and they put him on the presidential ballot ANYWAY. THAT'S the outrageousness of this whole damn rump shitshow. Arrest, Impeach, Remove, Imprison.

Anyone who still supports Trump is an enemy of this country and democracy!
