i cannot fathom what it’s like for Lorenzo Salgado Araujo’s family right now. this country murdered their husband/father for no reason.

All of Us Should Be Able To Agree With This…..

This entire thread is excellent

HORRID FUCKING HOG EVENT

Cyclosporiasis, the parasite causing the current explosive diarrhea outbreak, is at a level 20x higher than its yearly average. This comes just 1 year after the Trump admin removed a cyclospora tracking mandate from the 'Foodborne Disease Active Surveillance Network.'

We are in the fifth month of a four-week war we won in two days, over a nuke program that was obliterated last year, waged by the inaugural FIFA Peace Prize recipient during the FIFA World Cup.

It’s New Foods Day for the Minnesota State Fair and this, to me, is the promise of America www.mnstatefair.org/new/food

Think I’d be great at soccer. I regularly go 90 mins without accomplishing one goal

The ICE murder of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo deserves the same fury as Renee Good and Alex Pretti

People have focused on Platner’s rich kid lifestyle. But when I think about it, I see parents trying desperately to help a troubled son find his feet. They didn’t —give — him a house; his dad gave him a mortgage, so he could be responsible for paying for his own shelter. (1/2)

If Mitch McConnell is indeed brain-dead, then every one of the senators and congressmen who said they spoke directly to him should be impeached.

I cannot tell you how upsetting this is for me and so many others who have lived through the continued senseless and random extra-judicial kidnappings of our neighbors. Stand strong Seattle. We are with you.

ICE is engaged in a very large escalation nationwide, with the agency claiming to be hitting record arrest numbers amid the return of quotas. This has gotten very little attention from the media because ICE learned lessons from the chaotic disasters of Kristi Noem’s tenure. Keep a watch.

What I said: “And I am desolate and sick of an old passion,” What he heard: “And I am desolate in search of an old fashioned“

Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear is asking for an update from Sen. Mitch McConnell: “As Governor, I request that you fully update Kentuckians regarding the current status of your health.”

Kirsten Gillibrand's son, right out of college, getting a $300 million valuation on his "trade stocks as derivatives" company is a particularly ugly payoff for the Senator's stalwart crypto support, writes our friends at @revolvingdoordc.bsky.social. prospect.org/2026/07/08/n...

"But if he wants to spend the summer arguing with a bin, I won't stop him" Now HAS to be among the BEST lines in British Politics ever 👏👏👏 #Farage #Binface

Platner, McConnell, and Farage all in various types of limbo. Schrödinger for president, amirite?

hate to praise Massie, but this is funny

Is Count Binface staffed up? Anybody know where I could send my résumé?

“When we raised these concerns about clearly narcissistic and abusive behavior, we were dismissed as applying “purity tests,” but those of us who have suffered abuse from those like Platner knew the warning signs all along.” @mikeelk.bsky.social CC @jjfreyd.bsky.social

We extend our deepest condolences to the family, friends, teammates, and loved ones of Nolan Xavier Wells. Too many Black men and boys are denied the opportunity to grow older, to fulfill their purpose. May his legacy live on through all who knew and loved him ❤️

Evergreen post: He could be impeached tonight and convicted at trial in a few weeks and removed from office immediately thereafter if about 20 people in DC decided to put country over party for the first time in their miserable, self-dealing lives

Hey so, if you use Waymo driverless car services, you are aiding and abetting fascism. Waymo helps ICE agents locate people to terrorize and abduct. The company willingly shares all facial recognition, license plate and GPS data with ICE and other law enforcement agencies—no subpoena required.

There’s a lot here

yeah with a ouija board

Some honest, heartfelt advice for Graham Platner: Quit. Now. Pull off the bandaid. As soon as you do, you start to feel better. The event begins to recede. The pain decreases, bit by bit, every day. Every minute you spend in hellish limbo is going to be, well, hellish. Just get it over with.

An Afghan national who fought alongside U.S. forces has died from an allergic reaction while in ICE custody, one day after he was detained for deportation proceedings, his death certificate shows. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Virginia is joining a 22-state effort urging Donald Trump’s administration to reverse a new federal policy ending investigations and public reporting of deaths that occur shortly after immigrants are released from ICE custody. via @virginiamercury.com

Why sorry?

there's (rightfully) been a lot of attention paid to la, chicago, minneapolis, and dc, but the the joint federal-local task force in memphis is uniquely horrifying in ways not seen in other cities. this is at least the fourth person shot during the task force's monthslong occupation.

"Every one of these children had a name. They had dreams, loves, and futures. Their lives were as valuable and special as your child’s or mine. They were loved, and somewhere, their families grieve for them."

Why does this Trump apologist work *so hard* to avoid the phrase "he's shameless" or the term "sociopath" There's no ethical stricture in journalism that requires identifying a serial rapist, war criminal, draft dodger, con man, serial adulterer, pathological liar and felon as having a "superpower"

Dems have dumped Swalwell and platner Republicans have nominated Ken Paxton

This is fake, but it reminds me of the epic tour guide at Hemingway‘s home in Key West. Oh yeah. (she punctuated everything she said with that phrase.)

Remember when egg prices were breaking everyone’s backs? Turns out the prices were fixed. This punishment isn’t fitting the crime. The difference between $1.2 billion in profits and a $3.3 million fine for lying to consumers is insane. The math isn’t mathing.

Memphis has been occupied much like DC but because it is a majority black city in a republican controlled state it gets functionally no attention in the same capacity. Again, one of those small things we are meant to forget.

"Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont), one of Platner’s most high-profile supporters, did not respond to questions about the allegations." wapo.st/4eN9JX9

Abbott Laboratories donated $500,000 to Trump’s inauguration fund. Trump bought around $500,000 worth of shares in Abbott stock last year. His DOJ just dropped a years-long criminal investigation into Abbott for potential deadly misconduct. Everything is for sale.

Ha! It’s too soon. let’s not politicize this tragedy. Send thoughts and prayers.

If roughing up a girlfriend and locking her in a room was a virile, authentic a rejection of “smoothgroined” “HR lady” politics, but a rape is too far, then what’s at stake is not a principled rejection of violence against women but a cynical assessment of how much violence a man can get away with.

McConnell is doing better and enjoying a healthy dinner

Nolan Wells! Say his name! 😥

I think that's a safe assumption.. #crime #politics
