GOV. PRITZKER: “This is a convicted felon threatening to jail me? He’s an unhinged, insecure wannabe dictator. Come and get me.”

Today, we honor the more than 1,200 innocent lives lost, including 46 Americans, in Hamas’ horrific terrorist attack two years ago. We must demand the release of all hostages and remain steadfast in our pursuit of lasting peace and resolution for both Israelis and Palestinians.

My 7th grader just said Donald Trump was an illiterate fascist and I’ve never been so proud.

Here is Hegseth’s new letter, which references a new Section 12406 determination by Trump from Saturday. 12406 is the law calling up the National Guard that Immergut found had not been properly invoked as to Portland in terms of the September deployment decision. www.lawdork.com/p/judge-bloc...

Do not lecture me about Jay Jones' text messages when you know damn well Jason Miyares would welcome this to Richmond.

Thoughts on Taylor Swift’s new album: Skip the first 3 songs and it’s good!

Everyone should be alarmed at what’s happening to @richmond.com and their staff. First, their offices were moved *out* of the city. Now, they have no opinion editor and have lost many other outstanding journalists over the last 5 years. Without local journalism, corruption thrives. 🚨

They zip tied children.

What a line from the Pope! I am so pleased he is carrying on Pope Francis’ advocacy for immigrants.

@vadogwoodnews.bsky.social had a great first event this evening! Any excuse to talk about abortion rights and match my shoes to my lipstick is a win for me!

Watching MAGA crash out with racist hot takes on Benito at the Super Bowl. 😍😍😍 stay mad!!! Y tu mamá también, hijo de putas 🙃🙃🙃

I have been with my partner for 17 years. He bought his first political t shirt ever.

“I see protest as a genuine means of encouraging someone to feel the inconsistencies, the horror, of the lives we are living. Social protest is to say that we do not have to live this way." — Audre Lorde

Dissociating Sunday includes Uncrustables and watching the Lilith fair documentary in bed. 10/10.

Where were you when Bad Bunny and Marc Anthony sang Preciosa together?

Today is the day where I just can’t. This (waves arms wildly) is fucking exhausting.

Take that Paramount! Stephen Colbert wins best variety talk series at #Emmys weeks after CBS canceled show. "Sometimes you only truly know how much you love something when you get a sense that you might be losing it...my friends, I have never loved my country more desperately."

Oh, you can do that?!

Gone fishing. He's gone fishing.

It’s like some of you have never seen the movie Dave. Don’t get so excited.

NEW: This weekend in Trump's effort to make fascism happen. The Trump administration tried to illegally send children to Guatemala as troops walked aimlessly around Dupont Circle. This evening, at Law Dork:

"Many people bleeding": Migrants report alleged riots at Alcatraz in the Cayman Islands Several alleged detainees at the Alligator Alcatraz migrant prison, and their families, contacted Noticias 23 to report that riots were taking place at this migrant prison in the Florida Everglades.

12-year-old on FaceTime with a new friend: "also my mom might say 'hey' if she hears you cuss but don't mind her." 😂😂☠️☠️☠️

The White House posted an insane video of the police arresting the sandwich guy in a safe and wealthy neighborhood.

ICE raided the Westlake Home Depot in Los Angeles this morning. LATU organizers snapped some photos from the raid—one sticks out: ICE agents rolling up in a Penske rental truck. Wonder where they got the idea😬 Trying to avoid detection? Is this policy now? Are they now doing roving gangs in this?

200 Pinocchio’s. There is NO SUCH THING AS ABORTION AT THE HOUR OF BIRTH!!!!!!!!!!

The Trump administration plans to destroy more than $9.7 million in birth control intended as aid. Belgium, the U.N. and NGOs say their offers to save the supplies have been rebuffed Maham Javaid @joyceshlee.bsky.social and @megkelly.bsky.social have more wapo.st/3H81kiV

When Women Were Dragons needs to be made into a series.

The plot of every authoritarian script.

Yeah, this is really not great

My 11-year-old is blasting Metallica, “Master of Puppets.”

How it started 9 years ago and how it’s going. Happy gotcha day, Ruth Bader Ginsburg Pickett I. (She’s never let anyone hold her like this since.)

Congresswoman McClellan is the ONLY elected official here to speak out on this publicly and demand answers!!!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!

Once again, this is a massive public jobs program for fascists. This bill was never just about tax cuts and gutting social services. It's about investing our collective resources in violence and using state power to spread fear and destroy solidarity. We need to resist this with all we've got.

When your neighbor on the left is being dragged away by masked men and your neighbor on the right can't get an X-ray for their child, be sure to quickly explain that "both parties are the same" and whatnot.

This is what I’m so worried about

Pro tip: watch Thelma and Louise with your married femme friends. It holds up over time *and* will make the men folk in your lives (healthily) afraid. 🥰

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

There are no words. We have lost our humanity. My god.

Chesterfield County Government is inviting residents to participate in a community conversation with Board Vice Chair and Midlothian District Supervisor Mark Miller.

And toddlers have pretty impeccable insight about others, so if they don’t like you, you are probably a *very* bad boy.

Chesterfield’s Sheriff Karl Leonard confirmed to Virginia Scope that ICE agents detained six people inside the courthouse on Friday, along with another six on Monday. virginiapoliticalnewsletter.substack.com/p/ice-agents...

Adriana Smith will be taken off life support today in Georgia, 17 weeks after being declared brain dead and 4 days after her son was harvested from her body via c-section at 24 weeks gestation. May she finally rest in peace.

This is absolutely chilling. Gift article link because everyone should read this: www.nytimes.com/2025/06/13/t...
