The feds' bogus conspiracy case against 'The Minneapolis 15' is outrageous But their real target is YOU -- to shut you up and make regular folks think twice about protesting Trump's stunts to steal the election in November Free the Minneapolis 15! My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/ice-...

Obama: A declaration that we are all created equal, endowed by our creator with certain unalienable rights, and that in the newly independent United States there will be no kings or lords, no serfs or subjects, but only citizens,

Speaking at the unveiling of Former President Barack Obama's new center just now, former First Lady Michelle Obama argues that refusing to respect people who "aren't exactly like us" as Americans flies in the face of the American founding and the religious belief that "each of us is a child of God."

NEW: We got a private SpaceX investor list, from way before the IPO. It's a rare window into a particularly delicate issue for Musk: which investors in countries like China got stakes in SpaceX, and how. One investor has ties to Chinese military contractors. www.propublica.org/article/spac...

Everone knew what was going to happen down the road.

NEW: Records obtained by ProPublica detail at least a dozen SpaceX investors with addresses in mainland China, Hong Kong or Russia who acquired stakes in SpaceX years ago through a middleman firm in the U.S. called Tomales Bay Capital.

This administration is doing so much bad shit in the name of Elon mush

Very few Americans have taken any note of the central role of Elon Musk and his social media operations in stoking violence in England last summer and again last week in Belfast. But Toby Buckle and Greg Sargent do a good job here. Keep in focus that Tommy Robinson was sitting in a Moscow luxury

Elon Musk's incitement of pogroms in Belfast reveals he'll use his immense wealth and influence to foment untold fascist violence in the future. Only a global movement can break his power. New piece from @polphilpod.bsky.social and me. Threading highlights below. 1/ newrepublic.com/article/2119...

Oh, i see the issue now.

“The bottom line is that Minnesotans refused to buckle, even in the face of literally murderous violence. And we’ll do it all over again if we have to regardless of the any trumped up charges brought by Rosen and his band of aspiring fascists.” By @snipy.bsky.social in @atrupar.com’s PN:

Elon Musk has just become the world’s first trillionaire. Donald Trump is America’s first dictator. But they have more in common than their economic and political dominance. Let me explain. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-era-of-the-super-asholes

“He accepted the rose-colored assessment .. that the .. regime would quickly fall. He failed to plan for Iran’s obvious ability to close the Strait .. He made threats about destroying Iranian civilization that succeeded only in diminishing America’s moral standing.” www.nytimes.com/2026/06/15/o...

NEW: Pope Leo XIV’s new archbishop of New York, Ronald Hicks, celebrates the Knicks’ title with Mayor Zohran Mamdani at the city’s Puerto Rican festival.

From @theathleticfc.bsky.social: Cape Verde’s Vozinha says U.S. visa issues stopped his mother from witnessing his World Cup heroics in person. The 40-year-old goalkeeper was visibly emotional on the pitch after the game. nyti.ms/4vW6UsB

ICE observers in Minneapolis have begun receiving visits from FBI agents sent to intimidate them. A close friend-combat vet, mother, no criminal record-who was a volunteer observer during the ICE crisis, had a visit and was threatened for taking photos and videoed, claiming that filming was illegal.

Trump promised “total victory.” Instead, he got a sixty-day ceasefire—and on the nuclear issue, another round of talks with a regime that knows how to stall. Read more from a Daniel B. Shapiro, former U.S. ambassador to Israel

If the Paramount - Warner Bros Discovery merger goes through, one company—one family—would have editorial control over the CBS and CNN archives. That’s editorial control over history itself. Tell the CMA to #BlockTheMerger at blockthemerger.com/uk

From the @texastribune.org: “I would strongly advise you to leave our caucus,” [former state GOP chair Abraham] George said. “There is a Democrat convention happening in a couple weeks. Join them.”

Trump was so desperate to say the deal was done on his birthday he TACO’d & lifted the blockade immediately in exchange for Iran not attacking Israel … for a deal that’s not signed till next Friday and claiming HE opened the Strait of Hormuz that’s firmly under Iran’s control. He got played.

NEW: Videos show ICE agents defying Connecticut’s new mask ban during recent arrests. The agency says it “will not abide by” the ban. "Tell them. I dare you,” an agent said in one video. “Who’s going to arrest me?” My latest at @ctinsider.bsky.social — www.ctinsider.com/news/article... #nutmegsky

You can be a Republican in good standing and be against tariffs. You can be a Republican in good standing and be against the Iran war. You can be a Republican in good standing and be pro-choice. The only thing that you cannot be is in favor of free and fair elections.

BREAKING: NYT Confirms Trump Is Supervising Kennedy Center Tarp Removal As His Agents Appear to Be Indicating It May Stay Up Indefinitely—Effectively Taking *Kennedy's* Name Off the Center As Well As Trump's in One of the Most Petty and Vindictive Acts Ever Taken By Any President

Your money — whether it’s a 401K, a pension, or a college endowment — is now tied up in Elon Musk’s SpaceX. Guess who will be stuck holding the bag when the rocket crashes?

The death of a woman from Haiti seeking asylum in the U.S. who died from hypothermia days after her release from federal custody was ruled a homicide by a Pennsylvania county medical examiner's office.

Old enough to remember how Fox News bitched that “Obama’s hip-hop BBQ didn’t create jobs.”

The *IRGC* says what US media won’t about why Trump could possibly be so fixated on signing this tomorrow, his birthday: “Some observers believe his insistence may be driven by a desire to use the occasion symbolically and turn it into a personal publicity event.” www.cnn.com/2026/06/13/w...

In front of the Lincoln Memorial. This.

Friend sent me this photo he took today of the Reflecting Pool ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This is a dramatic reading of excerpts from a emergency stay filed by Donald J. Trump yesterday in the DC circuit to keep his name on the Kennedy Center. He was NOT successful. Based on how this is worded I wonder if Trump knows that John F. Kennedy is deceased.

If one cannot be a full-blown bloody minded dictator here, one may do so there. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

HUBBARD: “.. Many of the tech moguls who are the current superrich have not helped themselves in the conversation by saying, ‘My innovation is going to obliterate your life. .. It’s not too crazy to imagine a backlash.” @bencasselman.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2026/06/13/b...

Of course he bought stock in it.

"Statistical noise"; maybe last week you read in the Intercept, "Persona targeting". The bullshit is deep and sophisticated in the most base fashion.

HERE'S YOUR PHOTO! How fitting that this ended with yet another shameful cover-up, though. Perfectly, perfectly Trumpian.
