Jackson Browne v. Board of Education.

Former counselor to RFK Jr’s predecessor:

Democrats helped Trump sell the most successful video app in America to a bunch of his right wing zealot friends under the pretense of fixing privacy and improving national security

I signed the Harper's letter to show I was brave enough to stand up to the left on free speech. But I've decided that I'm not brave enough to stand up to the right about it.

a key reason they see an opening for such a blatant speech crackdown is that they already did one to Palestinian and anti-genocide activists and it got enthusiastic bipartisan approval

so many dead canaries and we just keep on mining

The remarks weren’t “about Charlie Kirk,” they were about how this administration is using Kirk’s death as an excuse to shut down critics … and they responded by proving him completely correct.

Ha, ha. It’s funny because it’s true—you might be illegally killed by the Trump administration.

This is buried at the end of Elizabeth's thread but it is such a key point: "people want their candidates to fight for them, not step on their necks trying to reach across the aisle."

“The last message that Charlie Kirk to me was to avenge his death!”

These guys are claiming Kirk as a nazi. I'm curious, from the right's perspective, is this unacceptable criticism, of the type that's getting liberals fired from their jobs, or is this honoring his legacy?

The official language of Jamaica is....wait for it.... English. These performances truly are targeted only at the stupidest people alive

“Mr. Van Hollen saw a different lesson [from his role in the Abrego Garcia case]. ‘This finger in the wind stuff has got to end. We also need to stop deluding ourselves that the problem is all about messaging, or about volume, or style. We don’t just need to fight. We need to fight for something.’”

Huh an awful lot of rhetoric shifted from Old Testament to New Testament over the past few hours

I give even odds that in the next 24-48 hours either Trump or his press secretary will try to indignantly deflect a question about the Epstein files by referencing Charlie Kirk.

They have never, ever expressed anything close to this level of pain and sympathy for school shooting victims.

When talking about political violence following the Charlie Kirk shooting don’t be like Charlie Kirk. www.yahoo.com/entertainmen...

I hate violence, but if the Right is going to use this as evidence of the “violent left,” make sure to share this with them.

Karoline Leavitt: "I’ve already seen many forensic analysts of signatures coming out. I believe it was The Daily Signal that published a piece with 3 separate signature analysts who said this absolutely was not the president’s authentic signature." I cannot find any such Daily Signal piece on this.

Hey everyone, serious request for help from someone familiar with immigration law and proceedings, particularly in NYC: A very dear friend of mine who has been waiting in immigration limbo for years received an I-797C (notice of action) to go to USCIS for an interview, along with her family.

Particularly notable given that Bove is now a judge on the court tasked with deciding whether or not Alina Habba legally has a job

It does bear repeating that if Obama had, say, sent the Illinois National Guard to Texas, Republicans would have had a massive meltdown.

Trump saya his false statements to banks in connection with multimillion dollar loan transactions don't matter, because he paid off the loans. Trump also says Lisa Cook must by removed from the Fed, because of purported misstatements in loan agreements, absent any reported defaults.

It is less a mass deportation regime as it is a mass kidnapping and indefinite detention regime

My favorite evergreen Molly Ivins quote: "I prefer someone who burns the flag and then wraps themselves up in the Constitution over someone who burns the Constitution and then wraps themselves up in the flag."

Really not great that this ketamine addled piece of shit is using an entire social media network he bought to spread blatant lies and go after trans people because he couldn't accept his own trans daughter.

They're openly calling to lock up every trans person by force. We need every ally to speak out forcefully against this because trans folks cannot do this on our own.

People need to understand just how openly genocidal the rhetoric on the far right is getting towards transgender people. They're openly talking about eradicating us and forcefully mass institutionalizing all trans people. These are people with direct ties to the Trump administration.

According to federal data, 13 of the top 20 cities in homicide rates have Republican governors. None of those cities are Chicago. 8 of the top 10 states in homicide rates are led by Republicans. None of those states are Illinois. And yet Trump is sending troops here.

Like sandwich guy, I really appreciate when people use white privilege for good

Did you know there’s a special election THIS Tuesday in Iowa that could break the GOP super majority in the Iowa state senate? I had no idea. Just saw it on Tik Tok. Now…just out of curiosity, do you think the DNC should have rallied national Dems to support this election?

This point in US history feels like the moment in a Roadrunner cartoon where Wile E. Coyote has run off a cliff but has not yet looked down and started falling.

I'm not sure anything will ever illustrate the state of The Discourse quite as well as Stephen Moore misreading his own pie chart while opining about the state of our national statistics.

“How to Report ICE” zines now available for these areas: NYC Philly Durham, NC All of Massachusetts I will add more as I get them done. Download them to print here: drive.google.com/drive/folder...

Every single Democrat needs to internalize this: ICE is a politicized operation that our tax dollars are paying for. If Dem leaders don’t use every single legislative tool in their disposal to rein this in (ie shutting down this govt over funding) they aren’t doing their jobs.

Stephen Miran, who Trump just nominated to the Fed Board: "The economy is just on fire." (Again, an allegedly hot economy is an argument *against* cutting interest rates.)

One thing I know for sure is that if *I* called the cops and said “some guy just threw a sandwich at me” they would consider me to be a huge baby and think I was wasting their time.

Maggie Haberman is the daughter of Nancy Haberman. Before her retirement in 2024, Nancy Haberman was an executive vice president at Haberman Communications, which has represented Fred Trump, Donald Trump, Charles Kushner, Rudy Giuliani, and Rupert Murdoch, among others.

Firing the head of the Bureau of Labor statistics because you don’t like the bad economic numbers is like trying to address a high murder rate by firing the coroner.

Six weeks ago— “Pentagon Strips Harvey Milk’s Name From Navy Vessel”

Investing in Confederate monuments. Banning library books. Renaming bases and ships. For all of Pete Hegseth’s posturing about a “warrior ethos” and being “laser-focused” on winning wars, he sure does seem fixated on fighting the culture wars. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Fully 25% of the entire United States is vein poppingly apoplectic over like a half dozen athletes that they’ve never heard of in sports they think should be defunded.

this work saved millions of lives in 2021, won the Nobel Prize in 2023, and is cancelled in 2025

The number of people who have died and will die as a result of the Trump Administration is going to leave all prior Presidents in the dust This, PEPFAR, nuking R&D funding nationwide, the list goes on

Just remember that while Trump is claiming that the economic data from the Bureau of Labor statistics are inaccurate and fraudulent, he’s the same guy claiming that he’s lowered drug prices by “1500%.” That tells you everything you need to know.
