Schumer & Gillibrand facing mutiny from Dems over their outdated “corporate-friendly” playbook, refusal to back Zohran, etc. Long overdue. @schumer.senate.gov www.nytimes.com/2025/11/24/u...

All this talk about Dick Cheney’s funeral reminds me that Erin Lim from @bitchtalkpod.bsky.social and I talked about this asshole last week on @whatacreep.bsky.social podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/w...

EPSTEIN BOMBSHELL: my staff is releasing a new report showing JPMorgan Chase executives – all the way to the top – enabled Epstein's sex trafficking operation. You're going to want to read this.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged. Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

I googled "Jeffrey Epstein" and "Mohammed bin Salman" and found this creepy-as-fuck James Stewart piece, in which Epstein claimed (in 2018) to be in regular touch with MBS. Stewart was reporting on a rumor that Epstein advised Elon Musk in 2019. #WebOfEvil. www.nytimes.com/2019/08/12/b...

You've probably seen Marjorie Taylor Greene on the airwaves denouncing the "toxic politics" in the United States. So, let's revisit the evidence of who helped make these politics so toxic. WATCH:

The brilliant Erin Lim from @bitchtalkpod.bsky.social joins @thesoniashow.bsky.social to talk about Dick Cheney. What a creep! www.spreaker.com/episode/dick...

Thx for having me on!

Big super thank you to my friend Erin Lim from @bitchtalkpod.bsky.social for coming on the podcast to talk about how much Dick Cheney suuuuucked.

Montclair Sundays Week 37. Here’s a little boost of boisterous Jersey resistance to propel us into election week. 🧵

Tens of millions lost their food stamps this weekend, the first time in the program's 61-year history that this has happened.

Trump may not technically be a king, but he does have some king-esque qualities...

If you can’t win, why not cheat, that seems to be the MAGA playbook. The Republican-controlled North Carolina Senate has passed a new congressional map in a 26-20 vote, setting up an expected final vote in the state House.

The East Wing was first added in 1942, under Franklin D. Roosevelt, primarily to provide office space for the First Lady’s staff and to conceal a newly built underground bunker known as the Presidential Emergency Operations Center (PEOC) during World War II.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson standing up to Trump’s attacks on his city - and on Johnson personally - with a level of coolness and dignity that can’t be easy under the circumstances. The leadership & people of Chicago are giving us the model of how to take on authoritarians. youtu.be/MAeWwW7ItCw

Baltimore’s homicide and violent crime rates are approaching all-time lows. So why is Trump threatening to send the National Guard in? Mayor Brandon Scott's hunch: Because the city is Democratic and Black-led. From our friends at @revealnews.org: tinyurl.com/47rwb43r

Donald Trump and Melania get on an escalator at the UN and it immediately stops working 🤣

The Path Forward, the film directed by @mohusseini.com and me, screening for International Peace Day in Nazareth.

Not me and filmmaker Ramona Diaz on the @bitchtalkpod.bsky.social talking about how art and activism mix.

🔸 “It’s like modern-day slavery.” 🔸 “Honestly, they are the most crooked agency I’ve ever worked for." 🔸 “The apartment was like a sweatshop." 🔸 “I was there illegally." “A sitting duck." After our investigation, Trump's modeling agency shut down. www.motherjones.com/politics/201...

Good blog! www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Remember the long struggle for emancipation. Celebrate Juneteenth.

ICE agents detain people coming out from hearings at immigration court who have upcoming scheduled hearings. ICE agents unilaterally grabs them and drags them away. When people abiding by the law get arrested, and the government openly defies the law, it’s fascism.

What are some good orgs for trans youth that could use some donations on this awful day? Reply below.

Lander is being release now from DHS/ICE custody now.

Greetings! I’m here at Los Angeles City Hall. A group of at minimum ten thousand here for a “No Kings” protest. People spilling out far past the area of Grand Park and City Hall.

(CNN) — The Trump administration is preparing to cancel a large swath of federal funding for California, an effort which could begin as soon as Friday, according to multiple sources. @cnn.com www.cnn.com/2025/06/06/p...

NEW: Inside the Billion-Dollar Effort to Make Trump Feel Good About Himself Trump’s administration is marshaling vast public resources and more than $1 billion worth of taxpayer money to flatter the president. Full story: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Lights have been out for nearly 5 hours at Masonic and Geary with no traffic control to help pedestrians cross this already dangerous intersection. @sfmta.bsky.social @walksf.org @sfpd.bsky.social @sfmayor.bsky.social

This feels like Alien vs Sexual Predator

Hey @tntsportsus.bsky.social when do we get to watch the women's matches during the #frenchopen? #everyonewatcheswomenssports

The Trump administration is advancing efforts to dismantle mental health services tailored for LGBTQ+ youth, particularly within the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.

The pace of horrific news in the U.S. and abroad is unfathomable. Taking a moment to mourn -the hundreds of Gazans killed in 2 days -the thousands forced to flee AGAIN -and the Israeli hostages (some deceased) now LESS likely to come home.

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific. If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

This is really smart by @sanders.senate.gov Go to republican districts and push voters to pressure their republican reps. www.commondreams.org/news/bernie-...

Donald Trump called Elon Musk the head of the Department of Government Efficiency Wednesday, and while this may seem obvious to everyone, the White House has been pretending like it isn’t—and the truth could land them in legal trouble.

🚨1 If you're attending a protest, make sure to save this post or the graphics in the thread. Knowing your rights, staying safe, & protecting others is essential. Be prepared, look out for each other, and keep fighting for what’s right. Stay safe out there! Credit meganthuy & blmlouisville IG

The Washington Post refused to run this ad. Sure would be a shame if it went viral.

You know what you call a government that rounds up its political enemies? You call it a dictatorship.

Wow. As one German said, "Americans de-Nazified Germany at the end of WWII and now you are re-Nazifying Germany," in response to JD Vance's meeting with the head of the AFD rather than the sitting German Chancellor. ~David Brooks on @pbsnews.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kuox...

Oh, Mapquest… How you doin’?😉

Anything fun happening out there?

We see all of you, D.C. Please, America, help us. Thank you—you give us hope.

"I certainly hope Congress takes action because what is happening here is illegal."

Reminder: Musk’s staffers are using space characters to identify information leakers. Before sharing any information, please use a checker to detect and remove these. Avoid directly leaking images; instead, request that the information be rewritten and the image recreated

At OPM, Musk’s staffers won’t leave—they work around the clock and have even installed sofa beds in the office. Our access to data systems has been restricted, raising serious concerns about cybersecurity and a complete lack of oversight. We are keeping our heads down and documenting everything.

The Trump administration has placed two top security chiefs at the U.S. Agency for International Development on leave after they resisted turning over classified material in restricted areas to Elon Musk’s staffers. America, please stand with us—we are fighting to defend this country!
