As a reminder, Polymarket has allowed people to bet on military actions some time now. I'd not followed it closely but this weekend's reminder that millions will be made off the deaths of children is just too much. bsky.app/profile/anam... www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

By a 6–3 vote, SCOTUS refuses to review a judge-made rule that bars indigent prisoners from splitting the filing fee among themselves when filing a federal suit—even though everyone else is allowed to split that fee. These defendants were allegedly tortured. www.supremecourt.gov/orders/court...

We had a good run.

Donald Trump is planning to use his attack on Iran to justify a power grab over voting in the 2026 midterms. The fact that the attack violates the Constitution won’t stop him from trying. It is our job to expose this plot and ensure that it does not succeed. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...

Former New Mexico Attorney General Balderas details how the FBI forcefully shut down New Mexico's criminal probe into what was up at Epstein's Zorro Ranch in Santa Fe Co. The feds insisted that they were running their own criminal probe and that NM's involvement would not be tolerated. It was a lie.

This draft Trump EO on voting is even nuttier than you imagined. Zeroing out all voter rolls and making everyone re-register in person. Mandatory annual online re-registration. Requiring anyone casting an absentee ballot to find a notary. No dropboxes. All post-election disputes federalized. 😟

US News & World Report: "Israel Closes Crossings Into Gaza Strip, including for Humanitarian Aid Workers." The displaced Gazans have never known peace and their conditions are horrific. Please give to my dear friend Tasneem. No amount is too small. And help others. 🙏 chuffed.org/project/1587...

I would like to remind people that AI has already been used to kill people OpenAI and Microsoft supplied Israel with AI models to track and kill people in Gaza which led to increased civilian deaths apnews.com/article/isra...

Trump’s handpicked Joint Chiefs chairman warned that an attack on Iran could turn into a prolonged conflict. Yet the “peace president” launched strikes anyway alongside the Netanyahu government. Urge your elected officials to use their power to stop Trump’s war: act.indivisible.org/sign/no-iran...

The people leading the U.S. war on Iran are a former “Fox & Friends” guest and a former “Fox & Friends” host.

We wake up this morning to learn that Trump has launched a reckless, illegal war. We can support the democracy movement and the people of Iran without risking the lives of our brave troops.

Something that's being overlooked: The Saudi government—yes, the same gov't that butchered a Washington Post journalist a few years ago—is set to be a part owner of CNN. Watch the full episode of Power Lines on YouTube: youtu.be/nWEG5jUrP2Q?...

In 2025, Meta paid an effective federal tax rate of 3.5% — its lowest on record. Meanwhile, Meta is pumping $65 million into elections this year to boost AI friendly candidates. Trickle-down economics isn't just a hoax, it's corrosive to democracy. Big Money is the root of our dysfunction.

“Eddie Gossett awoke one morning last summer to what sounded like an airport runway suddenly opening on his rural Mississippi road. The jet engine roar has been almost nonstop ever since … It isn’t a plane — or anything supernatural — though. It’s Elon Musk.”

I’m absolutely losing it over this 😂😂

“The political climate made it really clear that there is an acute risk of our state law enforcement being co-opted by ICE to do their dirty work,” says an attorney with the ACLU of New Mexico. The state last week banned local and state contracts with ICE.

Aliya Rahman, woman who was dragged out of car by ICE in Minneapolis: "I've spent the last month learning the names of the tendons in my shoulder, because both of my shoulders are torn -- cartilage and tendons. But what I haven't learned is the names of the people who did this to me."

Have you been to the vet or animal hospital lately and faced an ASTRONOMICAL bill? That’s no accident. Corporations and private-equity funds have been buying up veterinary clinics at an alarming rate. When this happens, prices go up and quality of care goes down.

The House failed to approve a bill Tuesday that was crafted after last year's tragic midair collision near Washington D.C. to require all aircraft flying around busy airports to have key locator systems to prevent such crashes. https://to.pbs.org/4aONpZM

SCOOP: IL-9 congressional candidate and current state senator Mike Simmons had police called on him in Buena Park while canvassing for votes. No arrest was made. Here’s the video of the interaction @senmikesimmons.bsky.social recorded and shared with me.

If the USA Women’s Hockey team wants a real celebration and invite ,,, I’ll host them in Las Vegas. Do some nice dinners and shows and good times. I’m sure I can get a hotel and airline to help me out here and celebrate these women for real for real. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

this is the stupidest thing and it absolutely undid me

Update from the US frontline with Iran; a significant amount of toilets onboard the USS Gerald Ford are out of order, sailors are being forced to wait in hour long cues to take a shit and the mission was extended from 6 months to 8 months, many are promising to quit the Navy.

The Ford Pinto had a death rate of 85 people for 10 million cars sold. The Cybertruck hasn't sold 10 million, but the fatality rate so far maths out to 1,452 people killed per 10 million sold. The Cybertruck may be the deadliest road car, for the occupants, ever sold. fuelarc.com/evs/its-offi...

the year is 2030. a doctor gravely informs you that you have plastic in your testicles bc millions of people who felt bad for a monkey bought polyester plushies that shed millions of microplastics in the laundry that were were eventually consumed by the fish that you ate

Breaking Sky News: Peter Mandelson has been arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office. He was led out of his London home by police officers this afternoon. Mandelson has faced allegations that he leaked market-sensitive information from Downing Street to Jeffrey Epstein.

Just a reminder that this happened last year too. Trump doesn’t care about drugs coming in. #Cartels Mexican security chief confirms cartel family members entered US in a deal with Trump administration apnews.com/article/el-chapo-sinaloa-cartel-trump-border-harfuch-86572a31c88a216da7cd5f33006a0011

Kash Patel in 2023: “I’m just saying Chris Wray doesn’t need a government funded G5 jet to go to vacations. Maybe we ground that plane. $15,000 every time it takes off. Just a thought.”

Hardest working man in the government.

One of the first things we were taught at Quantico was that there is never a moment in which you are not representing the Bureau; but, then again, we earned our place there, and weren’t granted its directorship as a sinecure for partisan malfeasance and a willingness to disregard the constitution.

“One of the world’s most wanted drug traffickers, the Mexican cartel boss known as “El Mencho”, has been killed by security forces, Mexico’s defence ministry has confirmed. The operation set off a wave of violence, with torched cars and gunmen blocking highways in more than half a dozen states.“

The reason we're here is that tens of millions of people will punch a hole in a wall if they hear someone used food stamps to buy soda but they're fine if the right-wing podcaster turned fbi director uses his taxpayer funded private jet to go party whenever he feels like it bsky.app/profile/thed...
