They’re getting desperate…

As the intensity of the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown has risen, residents of Chicago are increasingly pushing back. Federal agents repeatedly have been observed releasing smoke bombs, tear gas and pepper balls to disperse residents who gather or capture videos.

When I visited The Kennedy/Marshall Company in 2017 this was the first thing I saw as soon as I stepped off of the elevator. It's the original illustration by Drew Struzan.

Kudos to the residents of PDX for understanding the assignment and delivering the goods. Their absurd protests robs the president of any and all of the optics that he craves in these occupations. His masked paramilitary meatheads look ridiculous standing next to a happy dancing inflatable frog.

Thank you. MAGA is flooding the zone with anti-Bunny hate which is anti-Latino hate including change.org petitions. We need to show them and the NFL he has more supporters than haters. Please sign the petition.

This. Sadly, this.

"Notable." A blue check by another name.

This. A monstrous crime upon a city, committed by those sworn to protect the public.

Republicans are saying that these cuts will be reinvested into Medicaid for people who "deserve" it. If that were true, the budget would stay the same. But that's not what's happening. Why? Because down the hall, they are trying to finance tax breaks for billionaires.

It’s 2 am and we’re still marking up massive cuts to Medicaid. While their constituents are asleep, Republicans are trying to take away health care from 13.7 million people to pay for tax cuts for billionaires. They want you to tune out. Don’t ⬇️ x.com/i/broadcasts...

There’s hope for America.

One lesson from this is that it's worth pushing back.

BREAKING: Dems have FLIPPED the Omaha mayoral race. John Ewing Jr has beaten the GOP incumbent!!

This here. This is what it’s going to take.

Your School House Rock moment......

We have a long fight ahead to protect the first amendment. Today was an important step. Welcome back, Rümeysa.

AOC: If anyone is breaking the law in this situation, it’s not members of Congress — it’s DHS. It’s people like Tom Homan and Secretary Kristi Noem. You lay a finger on Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman or any of the Representatives that were there… we’re going to have a problem.

Airline chief executives are poised to work with US aviation officials to throttle back more Newark airport flights, a fix that may ease short-term safety concerns but won’t solve long-term problems.

The election of Pope Leo XIV is overtaking Peru, a deeply Catholic nation where he spent much of his life as he rose through Church ranks and even took citizenship.

Breaking Republican BOMBSHELL: AI is not responsible for the new Interim U.S. Attorney for DC saying in 2016 that Donald Trump was not qualified to be president. Jeanine Pirro is! "We cannot have a country led by a president subject to ongoing criminal investigations."

⚡️Zelensky imposes sanctions on Russian nationals, companies from Russia, China, Iran, Uzbekistan The sanctions list includes 58 individuals and 74 companies, with 67 Russian enterprises related to military technology.

At Pope Leo XIV's first Mass as leader on Friday, he pledged to align himself with “ordinary people” and not with the rich and powerful. Many see the first American pope as a continuation of his predecessor, Pope Francis, in his advocacy of the poor, migrants and a more open church.

What ICE has done in Newark is unacceptable. The Newark Mayor was doing his job. Arresting him is an alarming escalation that cannot be allowed to stand. We stand firmly with Mayor Baraka and his right to do his job . The Trump administration’s actions are an abuse of all we believe in America

🎬 EPISODE 5: The Anti-MAGA Minute Because we could all use some good news right now!

""I don't have anyone at home. They arrested my mom, my sister, and a 2-month-old baby," one family member told Telemundo Nueva Inglaterra in Spanish." Kidnapping women and children is now standard practice for American law enforcement. #MomSky

Wow, this! Worth a look, I'd say.

SoundCloud has issued a statement clarifying that it isn’t using artists’ content for generative AI music, following considerable backlash over a change some users noticed in the platform’s terms of service.

This is super important: @alannavagianos.bsky.social interviewed a history professor about how authoritarian regimes use pro-natalism to trap women in the home. Really, don't miss this one: www.huffpost.com/entry/gop-pr...

Nothing triggers MAGA like a Pope who follows the teachings of Christ.

Carolyn Raskin, the pioneering Emmy-winning producer who worked on four highly rated Frank Sinatra TV specials and the first four seasons of Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-In, has died. She was 97.

This is horrible. I don't even know what to say. Some of our most key polar data. "As a result, the level of services for affected products below will be reduced to Basic—meaning they will remain accessible but may not be actively maintained, updated, or fully supported." nsidc.org/data/user-re...

This. This this this.

This happened in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. #notohate #impeachtrump

awHELLyeah

I grew up believing that we had learned the lessons of the German poem and Martin Luther King Jr's speeches. We would all speak out if we saw democracy threatened and the rule of law under attack. I will always speak out against wrong. I will always stand up for democracy. I will not back down.

Sweeping trains, sharp suiting, feathered finery and more. Of the dozens of looks at the Met Gala, these 15 stood out as some that will be hard to forget, just like the blue carpet, which had a daffodil print that gave it more pizazz than the average red rug.
