Instead of asking for people to not use their AC in the heatwave, how about turning off the data centers instead?

Brilliant. How real trolling is done.

NEW: Todd Blanche claims the DOJ won’t produce additional docs or unredact them b/c the original redactions & withholdings were appropriate & he wants to protect the privacy of victims…despite already repeatedly violating that privacy. My reply to his asinine arguments: youtu.be/f0GaVdXLrfM?...

The Pope just did what too many elected Republicans won’t. He told Trump the truth: immigrants helped build America, and defending human life means welcoming them…not demonizing them. That’s patriotism. 🇺🇸 #USDemocracy #Pinks apple.news/ApGs0R_NhQn6...

NEW: CNN just talked about heat related ailments wt Trump’s state fair: 44 patients, 11 transported - 7 of those on advanced life support

This is in Jackson, Mississippi. Not Seattle, or Los Angeles, or Manhattan, or San Francisco. This is in Jackson, Mississippi. The pendulum swings.

would love to see a hostile audit of Freedom 250. hell, would love to see hostile audits of everything even tangentially related to trump. this will produce endless material. you could conceivably bring the administration to an effective halt!

Last year, DOGE laid of the National Endowment for the Humanities' 2024 employee of the year. This year, NEH asked if she wanted to come back to the agency. As DOGE's mandate ends on July 4, the government is hiring again. www.notus.org/agencies/dog...

The right-wing attack on birthright citizenship is not just about birthright citizenship itself. As MAGA’s reaction to the Supreme Court ruling proves, it is part of their opposition to a broader ideal, that “All men are created equal.” www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

In the latest installment of the Trump-Family-Conflict-of-Interest saga, Xtend (which plans merger w/JFB Construction, Eric Trump is an investor deal) announced they have advanced to Gauntlet II phase (w/19 companies) of $1B US Drone Dominance program www.sec.gov/Archives/edg...

Mamdani: "As we mark 250 years ... we see the wealthiest country -- one where children go to sleep hungry while the world's first trillionaire hungers for more ... we see masked agents terrorizing our streets, eating food cooked by undocumented neighbors before spiriting them away in unmarked vans"

"The Pope is the puppet of the Chinese authoritatian government" is a take you would make if you made billions by drinking paint.

I cannot be the only one in journalism in this situation: —Received many invites to this 'Dialog' event over the years. They seemed to asking most/many people involved in tech journalism, as I was early 2000s + beyond. Like another tech conf. —Never attended any. —Who else has same story?

Tell me more about Hunter Biden’s laptop..

An update from the office of Senator Mitch McConnell, the longtime Republican leader who is still in the hospital after 18 days. He was admitted on June 14 after paramedics performed CPR on an unconscious person who suffered cardiac arrest at his home, according to police scanner audio.

There’s a LOT of rumors & moving parts here in Louisiana tonight after a grand jury indicted Attorney General Liz Murrill for intimidating New Orleans officials, including talk of retaliation by Gov. Landry. We’re working on finding reportable information but suffice it to say this may get real dark

I don't know why, but I have recounted the story of Project Mohole multiple times in the past week. For that reason, here's one of my favourite things I've ever written: www.bugeyedandshameless.com/p/etceterolo...

JUST IN: Todd Blanche has responded to Judge Sullivan's Order on my preliminary injunction and it's...more deflection, bullshit, and attempts to conceal. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Trump borrowed more than $50 million from Charles Schwab Bank last year. But what we don't know— 💰️ why he needed the funds 💰️ how he used the funds 💰️ what assets he pledged as collateral 💰️ the exact amount he borrowed 💰️ when it's due ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ @danalexander21.bsky.social for Forbes

Freedom 250 is accused of committing potential wire fraud and other devious fundraising schemes.

If there was any doubt that Gov Jared Polis’ legacy is freeing Tina Peters, the NYT reports Polis just fired the clemency board members who revealed he overruled their unanimous wishes www.nytimes.com/2026/07/01/u...

C'mon, Pulte... Donald told you to declassify EVERYTHING... Start with the 302s of the 13 year old girl Trump raped, Billy-boy. I DARE you. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

"a WiDE rANge oF OriGiNAliST sCHolArS..." A range from Wurman to Lash to Epstein to Hamburger to Barnett to a Heritage fellow. From far right to far far right to far far FAR right. Anyway, when scientists make up their evidence, there is usually professional repercussions. What will we do?

Notably, FOUR justices would have rewritten the Constitution by fiat. Kavanaugh only concurred because he thinks the law Congress passed in the 1950s granting birthright citizenship governs the case, but he thinks Congress could eliminate birthright citizenship along Trump's lines if they wanted.

The Constitution is being interpreted today the same way it has been for more than a century, and that requires massive unprecedented violent measures.

If not for the feckless SCOTUS, Al Gore would have been president & then Kerry & this would be a very different world. But we're not allowed to have nice things, obvs. www.cnn.com/2026/06/25/t...

Trump has earned $2.3 billion since the beginning of his presidency through 4 different crypto schemes.   The common denominator for each: the Trumps win big, and you lose. Data from @reuters.com.

Striking graphic in this latest Reuters piece, which finds that while President Trump and his family have profited by at least $2.3 billion since he retook the presidency, their more than a million investors have suffered $2.3 billion in net losses. www.reuters.com/investigatio...

Dr. Joseph Mercola, a vaccine skeptic with millions of followers, told parents for years that vitamin K shots were unnecessary for newborns. Now he's changed his mind. The reversal came after we contacted him while reporting on babies who died after parents declined the shot: propub.li/4aowazm

If you owe a woman $5 million for sexual assault, you also owe the country your resignation.

A win! A federal court has dismissed the DOJ’s lawsuit seeking access to New Hampshire’s unredacted voter data. The ruling marks the department’s 11th legal defeat in its nationwide effort to obtain states’ private voter information.

there were more people in my garage watching the World Cup last weekend

Albania, citizens are gathering outside Police Station No. 1 in Tirana, demanding the release of 6 protesters detained during demonstrations outside Parliament. As the "Flamingo Revolution" rolls into its fourth week, each arrest only seems to be drawing more people into the streets, not fewer.

Mitch McConnell should resign Immediately…..

Ever the relentless liars….

Today, I voted YES to release the names of Members of Congress who used taxpayer dollars to settle sexual misconduct and other misconduct cases in Congress. No more abuses of power and no more hiding behind a system that shields perpetrators. We will always fight for justice for survivors—period.

This is Penny. She came up with her own trick. Really hopes you like it, and will repeat it as many times as necessary until you acknowledge that you do. 14/10 (IG: pennycorgipoo)

Basically the Supreme Court is 5-4 on whether America is white man's country

This country was one person's vote away this morning from putting any birthright citizen in danger of being deported tomorrow. We are so much closer to the abyss than we think. Man oh man.

Trump has been itching to seize control of WDC & now that he's managed to fence in most of the Mall + Lafayette Park, I expect he'll leave those fences up for his J6 2.0 www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

Today’s decision in Slaughter will destroy the independence of the Merit Systems Protection Board, which will have a cascading effect on all federal employees, who have been free from political interference for 150 years. The spoils system is back, baby!

I wish it were more broadly understood that Trump constantly and explicitly holds up his naked corruption *as a badge of honor* that his supporters are supposed to thrill to (and see benefit for themselves in). He thinks corruption is the highest form of winning.

Chief Justice Roberts just announced from the bench that *tomorrow* (Tuesday) will be the last day for opinion hand-downs this term. So we'll get birthright citizenship, the two transgender discrimination cases, and the big campaign finance case in some order at 10 ET tomorrow.

The Slaughter case, overturning precedent, returns us to a spoils system where a president can “clean house” every four years, destroying our professional, independent civil service.

I will once again remind folks that a very sizable chunk of what looks like Congress not doing anything to push back against the president is in fact a consequence of the Court disabling/destroying all the ways Congress has tried to push back.

The Supreme Court must be reformed or dismantled at this point. It's a rogue body filled with 6 right wing extremists who want to replace democracy with a white Christian King. If a politician doesn't support Court reform then they arent the leaders for this moment. Step aside.
