Listened to an NPR story this morning about mass child starvation in Senegal without a single mention of Elon Musk, the guy who gleefully created the conditions for the mass starvation

Absolutely huge crowds in Belfast to reject the far-right, paramilitarism, racism and border violence. A loud message to the politicians who pandered to violent paramilitary groups this week

What Ivanka & Jared are doing is worse than I thought they are destroying natural wetlands of Albania. The corruption is unpalatable. Ariel Brunner is fighting them tooth & nail and boy oh boy is he angry. As he should be. Ariel Brunner is Europe & Central Asia Director of BirdLife International.

“We are deeply disturbed to learn so many senior members of the Trump administration gathered in the Situation Room to discuss the release of the Epstein Files as a reputational problem… we are separately concerned Todd Blanche was at that table.”

Every single person who helped cover up the Epstein files needs to testify under oath and be held accountable.

We are a "coalition of epidemiologists, bioethicists, global & public health law scholars, civil liberties lawyers, medical professionals, & public health practitioners" We condemn the proposal to relocate US citizens potentially exposed to Ebola to Kenya oneill.law.georgetown.edu/press/intern...

FWIW, if you’re holding high level emergency strategy meetings on how to “spin” the Epstein files, 3 things quickly become clear to everyone: 1) you are in the Epstein files. Significantly. 2) you are a very bad actor in Epstein’s heinous criminal activities. 3) you can’t spin, so you COVER-UP

Ken Paxton’s own party impeached him. His own staff reported him to the FBI. Now his own defense attorney is endorsing our campaign. Those closest to Ken Paxton know he's unfit for office.

HE WON'T RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES FOR THE SAME REASON HE DIDN'T RELEASE HIS TAX RETURNS: HE'S GUILTY.

So the White House Apparently Freaked Out Over Epstein Files in the Situation Room According to a New York Times report, the files “paralyzed” the administration much more than previously thought. www.jezebel.com/so-the-white...

WTF is this bullshit?🙄 www.alternet.org/2026-midterm...

500 ships and 11,000 stranded sailors. You have to admit that our dear leader has mad skills in wrecking everything. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/12/b...

There is something terribly wrong about an economy that produces its first trillionaire, but cannot provide health care for its people. Or one in which the richest handful of families have the combined wealth of almost forty percent of the rest of the country.

If trump had not told the republican congress to vote “no” we would have had bi partisan legislation to deal with immigration. Renee Good and Alex Pretti might still be alive, but Trump needed the issue to bolster his campaign. Somebody tell me how Trump is, in any way, good for this country.

The 10 hours of erecting scaffolding wasn’t to strip the letters (something that 30 minutes in a boom lift could accomplish), it was to conceal the view with a curtain because Trump couldn’t handle the optics of the letters of his name being plucked off the building.

She warned us.

The White House before the current occupants and as it should have looked for America’s 250th birthday.

Trump, his allies have been looting the U.S. government, taxpayer dollars, since he took office. How much did they steal? It’s reverse Robin Hood. 👉🏼call your senators 👉🏼help folks register to vote 👉🏼subscribe Letters from an American 🇺🇸 by @hcrichardson.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

If you commemorate the Space X IPO by reading one article on Elon Musk today, make it this one from @edwardluce.bsky.social. It is a timely and hard-hitting reminder that the world's first trillionaire is also one of its very worst people. giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/...

One board member said the FBI approached some without warrants. “They had agents all across the state going to civil rights leaders and community leaders’ doors intimidating them, coming and demanding that they talk about literally anything they would ask.” “Just straight-up intimidation tactics.”

The president is trying to downsize the U.S Forest Service and eliminate wildfire and smoke research as the American West is facing a potentially epic summer fire season.

I've reported on Musk for around 8 years. I've co-authored a book on him. I don't think folks understand the rate of his wealth accumulation. Shortly after he helped elect Donald Trump in Nov 2024, his net worth was around $350 billion. That net worth has nearly tripled in less than two years.

On this date in 2023, Donald Trump became the first former U.S. president to be charged with federal crimes as he was arraigned in a Miami courtroom; he pleaded not guilty to 37 felony charges that related to his alleged mishandling of classified documents.

ABBY PHILLIP: “What about the law, Scott?” SCOTT JENNINGS: “What about it? Who cares?” 🤔 Refreshing honesty from the smuggest man in the world. The law does not matter to them.

Edward Luce in the Financial Times about Musk:

Trump has now rolled back fishing protections in every U.S. Marine National Monument, opening millions of acres of previously protected ocean waters to commercial fishing. The move threatens critical habitat for whales, sea turtles, sharks, coral reefs, and other marine life.

This does not happen. Anywhere. What *did* happen was Trump’s best pal taking children and sexually trafficking them, with a victim later accusing Trump himself of forcing sexual acts upon her when she was just 13. Video: buff.ly/OT2osRV

The world's first trillionaire received 38 Billion Dollars from the US government. But, no, we won't have enough money to pay for school lunches for your kids. Or give you healthcare. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Reason #1,000,000,000,000 why we should tax the rich.

@robertgarcia.bsky.social: "I think JD Vance — and we already know that he's a liar who does whatever Donald Trump wants — has refused to ever stand up to Trump throughout this entire administration. And what we're learning here is that he's a much more central player in the Epstein cover-up.”

ICE shouldn't be at schools. Period. This is horrific, it's unacceptable. These parents should be immediately released and we must all collectively demand that ICE stay out of schools. www.thebanner.com/education/k-...

Should billionaires exist? How quaint.

A federal judge ordered the Trump administration on Friday to reinstall exhibits and signs touching on topics like slavery and climate change that it had removed from parks and monuments nationwide "that do not align with its preferred narrative."

NEW: The horrific racist attacks in Belfast this week were orchestrated by young members of the global Active Club network—neo-Nazis that promoted using violence in Northern Ireland. @davidgilbert.bsky.social w/ the scoop: www.wired.com/story/a-whit...

There's no bigger U.S. scandal right now than the human beings dying needlessly in ICE gulags. I took a deep dive into the April death of Philly's Tuan Van Bui, Amerasian child of the Vietnam War Cellmates say ICE's version of his death is total BS My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/tuan...

“They are trying to push people into the shadows and encourage people to just give up and leave.”

Politicians were quick to criticize Musk and Robinson, who did not reply to requests for comment, for their role in fomenting the violence, but what no one appeared to notice was the role played by the white supremacist Active Club movement and its Youth Club wing.

In November we stop their advance. Let’s go. Audio: buff.ly/eMdw4L2

What White House? 👀 #TrashyTackyTawdry_tRump 🤢

UFC cards for major events nearly always feature women. In fact, MMA is one of the rare sports in which women appear on the same cards as men, can headline over them, and are not subject to different rules. So why doesn't the White House card feature any women?

Buttigieg: We sit in a in a country that's got the wrong number of people on the Supreme Court, possibly the wrong number of representatives in the House of Representatives. And by the way, when you consider the disenfranchisement of the people of DC, we have the wrong number of states in the US

HCR and her staff have set up 1 minute bits that explain how the revolution happened by individual and small group acts.
