He was born for this

Happy Fourth of July from Willie and me!

No notes.

apparently they told people to go to the department of commerce for shelter but the doors are locked, and ngl that’s a good bit. say what you will about the big guy, but he hates his supporters as much as we do

The things you have to do to get work.

This is the only real way to listen to the national anthem

I appreciate the @theguardian.com’s willingness to call this group what it is. Neo-fascist group Patriot Front parades Confederate flag in Washington DC on Fourth of July www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Looks like Mayor Z's pied a terre tax is not collapsing the real estate market or causing the wealthy to flee Manhattan after all. Indeed, the opposite. Who could have possibly imagined this scenario? www.realtor.com/news/trends/...

Happy birthday to glorious Eva Marie Saint! [shown here as Mary Todd Lincoln in the, alas, unsuccessful The Lincoln Mask, 1972]

Ten years ago today, JD Vance published an essay calling Donald Trump “cultural heroin” and “an opioid of the masses.” Now, he’s the #1 pusher of Trump’s poison. This July 4, let’s remember the words of a man who sold his soul to sell out our nation. 🎁 link www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Nine years ago today when NPR tweeted the entire Declaration of Independence, Trump supporters angrily thought it was criticizing him

"...our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor."

Happy Fourth of July, New York City

My thoughts are with the people impacted by the Chelan Hills fire, and the firefighters working to contain the blaze. If you are in the area, please follow any evacuation orders.

This 20+ year sheriff allegedly told his deputies to target Latino residents and referred to them as “taco eaters.” Now he could be ousted in a country that’s grown increasingly competitive. One of the most noteworthy elections these midterms for ICE policy — these local races are pivotal.

Wildland firefighters are away from home this holiday protecting lives. Three firefighters were killed in Colorado last week. When tragedy strikes, Wildland Firefighters Foundation assists families & injured firefighters. I’ll match the next fifty $5 donations: wffoundation.org/kyle-clarks-...

Trump and his sons ripped off nearly one million of their supporters and made a fortune producing nothing of value for anyone. Blood sucking leeches, using the US presidency to do it. And they couldn’t care less and their cult doesn’t seem to mind. Strange times in America.

Proud to be an American. True patriotism is defending the Constitution, protecting our democracy, and striving for liberty and justice for all. Our country has never been perfect, but its promise is worth protecting. Happy 4th of July. ❤️🤍💙🇺🇸

This an official Vatican photograph of Leo at Lampedusa, Italy - one of the world’s heaviest migrant sites - where he went this morning to pray for migrants who died at sea. This is after turning down the offer to come to the United States.

A lot of people don't understand a lot of things. But we have to get it across to people that the "liberal media" have been all-in Trump supporters for years and the more people hate him the more they fluff him.

The anti-vax group formerly led by Robert Kennedy Jr. has been promoting the story of a woman who says vaccines killed her 18-month-old twins. She’s the lead plaintiff in the group’s lawsuit against the American Academy of Pediatrics. Well, now she’s been charged with suffocating the toddlers.

YESTERDAY: Trump admin brags that PJM power grid was relying on fossil fuels instead of renewables. TODAY: Trump admin alerts PJM to cut electricity use as outages, overloaded transmission lines, and extreme heat push the system toward blackouts. PJM escalates emergency actions as a result.

I used to be one of these “ok calm down or else they’ll call us socialists” people. But I just don’t care anymore. I don’t care. Help people and fuck whatever they call us, it doesn’t matter.

Mamdani: "Therein lies the work of America -- a striving, a bettering, the reaching toward perfection. What a privilege each of us has to live in a nation that every one of its inhabitants can shape. What a responsibility each of us possesses to prove ourselves worthy of all those who came before."

Don't want to speak ill of the dead, so getting this Mitch McConnell take out now. He saw Trump with complete clarity, as a danger to America, but protected him anyway. Perhaps more than anyone, he had the power to end Trumpism, but chose party over country. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/jan-6-and-...

Some people are putting it all on the line.

Amazing to me that the 250th anniversary of the establishment of our country has devolved into a nationwide "let's not and say we did."

seems bad

Here's my full interview with CNBC, covering my bear case against generative AI, OpenAI's questionable finances, AI's lack of ROI, and how all of this is a symptom of the tech industry running out of hypergrowth ideas. It's great to see the mainstream media discussing this. youtu.be/TtmPccUTDP8?...

90 minutes to InfoWars. There is a very special caller in this week's episode of Emergency! With Tim Heidecker. Hope you recognize him.

WASHINGTON—Claiming there were strings of explosive devices planted throughout the National Mall, President Donald Trump reportedly attempt to cover up low attendance at the Great American State Fair this week by calling in a bomb threat.

The fair’s main contractor was also behind the ellipse event just prior to the January 6th attacks, and has raked in $39 million in federal contracts since 2025 👇

President Trump signed the so-called “Big Beautiful Bill” into law one year ago, throwing millions off their health care and food assistance and cutting health care jobs so the rich could cash in. Workers will hear about the damage caused by this law. https://bit.ly/4eJcmta

Presidents past wept for our fallen soldiers. Donald Trump mocks them. Our soldiers and their families deserve a Lincoln. https://youtu.be/sW2qU0wbMQI

As his fascist project destroys the USA from the inside, Peter Thiel went to the Aspen Institute to warn about...democratic socialism! Oh no! Childcare and healthcare are the REAL problem, not the towering frenzy of criminal corruption Silicon Valley unleashed in Washington.

“The party base is looking for fighters and disrupters—and will cast aside solid politicians who they don’t think will aggressively battle Donald Trump, MAGA, and right-wing billionaires.” Latest from @perrybaconjr.bsky.social

Elon Musk is a white supremacist huckster whose business practices routinely leave poor, minority communities stuck squarely under his bootheel:

The other day I noted the only way Trump would keep paying Event Strategies to put together humiliating public events is if it were a vehicle for corruption. Today, Natural Resource Dems released a report substantiating that corruption. emptywheel.net/2026/06/29/t...
