This alone should be a decade-defining political scandal resulting in prison sentences.

Just a reminder that there's only about a week left to leave comments on the OMB proposal that will cripple federally funded research. Here's my attempt to convince you that you should, along with info on how to do so effectively.

Jim Acosta says all the Trump vanity projects should be torn down: This is like the end days of Saddam Hussein that we’re seeing right now, with the way he’s trying to build things and take over projects down in Washington, D.C. It does not speak to somebody who is at all healthy.

Mamdani’s NY really got free childcare, Knicks in 5, & the royal wedding

It’s corruption on steroids in plain sight. He doesn’t even try to hide that he’s looting US and cashing in on insider trading. He’s the most corrupt president in American history.

Just had to explain who Peter Thiel is to my mother, a woman who has CNN on in her house every waking moment. Starting to think it’s a problem that men like this can just fly under the radar because their friends own the press.

We uncovered how he hijacked America 250 – watch to see how. youtu.be/-ydXJ3HhXy0?...

🧵Keep your rotting hands off our cherry trees, Trump! Trump wants to redevelop a public golf course in DC. "A photo of the architectural plans obtained by The Washington Post and The New York Times appeared to show the East Potomac Golf Links covering the entirety of East Potomac Park ...

It's very important to understand, fascists don't just see hypocrisy as a necessary evil. It's not that it's an unintended side-effect. It's the purpose. The ability to enjoy for yourself the exact thing you're able to deny others, because you dominate, is the whole point.

"One water connection had been installed without the utility’s knowledge, and the other was not linked to the company’s account and therefore wasn’t being billed."

Donald Trump is a very stupid fucking person who genuinely has no idea how anything works and the U.S. press should never be allowed to live down their failure in communicating this mercilessly and clearly to the U.S. public

Colorado would be better served with a better Democratic Party. How many Trump judges have Hickenlooper and Bennett vote to confirm? Dozens. Polis just granted Tina Peters clemency for no reason.

do these geniuses ever wonder why or have any way to rationalize the fact that no one in the republican party says "we need a strong democratic party, it's not healthy to have just a dominant republican party" or do they just blank out like a westworld robot

After the U.S. Supreme Court’s mail ballot ruling Monday, anti-voting lawyer Cleta Mitchell believes there’s now a legal avenue to kill early voting — and she doesn’t want to wait to sue. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Sister Leticia "Letty" Ugboaja was walking to Sunday Mass in McAllen, Texas, when federal immigration officers stopped her, confiscated her rosary, and put her in handcuffs. DHS would not respond to requests for comment. The Catholic nun from Nigeria is a nurse who entered the country legally.

America has gotten to that last part of Monopoly where the game is effectively over and we're all just watching the Elites suck up all the money, nobody else is allowed to really keep playing the game & we're all getting more pissed by the minute. Flip the damn board over already.

🙏REPOST SHYLO🙏

The administration is looking at moving funding away from basic science and towards inquiries that are more specifically tied to likely applications. The CRISPR sickle cell therapy is a perfect example of the type of innovation that could suffer.

NEW: "The Roberts Court seems to have settled on the idea that it will hand Trump tactical defeats so that it can give him strategic victories." www.thebulwark.com/p/pay-her-pa...

trump is stealing a golf course used by ordinary washingtonians and giving it to his rich friends

"The door, locked. Its windows boarded up. The only indicator of what might have been is a green sign at the top of the entryway: 'African-American History'. "The would-be exhibit is one of dozens that were scrubbed from federal land by the Trump administration..." www.npr.org/2026/06/26/n...

We just need to be clear-eyed. We need to tax the rich not because we can fund healthcare out of it, but because billionaires have too much power to distort politics and are thus dangerous to democracy.

Trump paid $16M…nearly 3x the estimate on a no-bid contract to renovate the Reflecting Pool. It turned GREEN within days. Now Congress is investigating. The pool is fenced off and Trump is blaming… vandals. 🙃 Your tax dollars in the slime! 🤢 #USDemocracy #Pinks apple.news/ABIVWatnKTEK...

Check this out. AI data centers could end up tilting the midterms. Voters are paying attention. Some have already switched political parties over this issue, and more are asking who’s putting Big Tech ahead of their communities. Candidates ignore this at their own risk.

Vice Adm. Nancy Lacore was fired during Hegseth’s military purge. She could have walked away quietly. Instead...she ran for Congress...and won. History changes when people refuse to stay on the sidelines...and FIGHT.

Okay. Ai can go bankrupt then. This is not our problem, this sounds like a rich tech billionaire problem.

This is just like the tobacco industry. They knew it was harmful but didn’t care. The AI companies already know the risks & side effects. They have them buried somewhere in a report. So what health impacts would be unexpected?

The plan is for this plane to be in service for two years and then Trump will take if for himself. No President has ever stolen an Air Force for himself. And you paid for it. The total cost could be $1 billion of your money for a new luxury jet for Trump and his family.

NEW: Vessel captains crossing the Strait of Hormuz will have to answer "our riddles three" Iran's foreign ministry says

The single most defining thing Elon Musk has ever done is killing untold numbers of people by having DOGE illegally raid and disband USAID. Not rickets, not cars, not even the CSAMbot on X. It’s this, and so many media pundits just choose to unsee it.

elon musk spends two-thirds of his time spreading racist pseudoscience and hating trans people and here is Ezra Klein in 2026 saying Musk is relentlessly focused on the only things that matter to him: EVs and going to Mars. I'm sorry but the guy's just very very dim

They arrested a mariachi band, bear sprayed an observer, and ditched an injured citizen at a hospital in the next town. “The ICE agents allegedly then performed donuts with their vehicles under the freeway overpass for about 15 minutes.”

A fire that broke out in the Boyle Heights neighborhood of Los Angeles on Wednesday continued to burn through the weekend. No injuries have been reported, but officials urged residents to limit time outdoors because of the smoke. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/20/u...

At least a few people who once liked Trump must now see that he is embarrassing and ruining America If he can't *clean a pool* without stealing money from us, hiring the wrong people, overpaying, conspiracy-theorizing, lying to us and calling in the Guard, he can't run a country

ICE/Geo drove into a demonstrator today.

This should be deeply embarrassing for the NYC City council. Paying interns would be one of the easiest and cheapest "lead by example" things that Council could do on equal access and living wages. Who can afford to do an unpaid internship for the summer? (not poor folk!)

Gillibrand made her name calling for the resignation of another senator by positioning herself as a champion of "zero tolerance" for senatorial misbehavior. That's great. I support it. So let's hold her to the same standard. We should have zero tolerance for political corruption. She should resign.

i for one have full confidence in the trump administration's ability to adequately refit a plane donated by a foreign government into a highly secure mobile command center for the united states executive, following their unquestionably successful renovation of A Large Pool of Water

As dysfunctional as most red states are, can you imagine the amount of human misery there'd be if blue states weren't propping them up? The effects of Republican governance at the state level are far, far worse than most realize. Really should be a bigger deal but here we are.

When we win, the first bill I’m filing is a comprehensive anti-corruption package: Overturn Citizens United Ban corporate PACs and super PACs Ban members of Congress from trading stocks Once we defeat the most corrupt politician in America, we can defeat this entire corrupt system.
