In a just world…the Post Master General David Steiner would have his corrupt ass arrested today…for admitting to his plans to interfere in an election.

Imagine being retired for years… and still making headlines without even trying. 😄 Some people leave office. Others leave a legacy. #SheShed

Yes! Let's go!

In other news are we sure cucumbers aren't an alien lifeform?

"But these communists, they want to make for a worse life for everybody so they can control every aspect of our life. They’re anti-American, they’re anti-Semitic, they are anti-Christian, and they’re anti the values that our parents taught us and our grandparents taught us."

Here we go again. "Aegon cannot rule. We must implore Aemon to kill Aegnog and save Aeorta and restore the rule of Aechybreakyheart"

Prisons and jails are the largest 'mental health providers' in the US. Great investigative work from @boltsmag.org in this overall multi-part series so do read the rest of it too!

Awful. Trump's far-right Supreme Court majority is green lighting his lawless attacks on immigrants trying to follow the law. Terrible for rule of law and for families just trying to get by.

You know who else has never assimilated? Everyone who keeps flying that fucking Confederate flag.

For years, the anti-immigrant go-to line was that they were anti *illegal* immigration, because they believed in rule of law and had compassion for immigrants who "did it the right way." Now, from the White House and Supreme Court on down, it's openly anti-rule-of-law and anti-nonwhite-immigration.

🚨 BREAKING: Judge Sullivan just GRANTED Katie Phang's motion for a preliminary injunction, ordering the Trump admin to move forward on key transparency measures in the Epstein files case—including defending redactions, producing additional records, and publishing the disclosure log required by law.

VON DER LEYEN: Ukraine's recovery and growth are not only in Ukraine's interest, but in Europe's interest, too. This war has shown how fundamental Ukraine's security is to Europe, not only as recipient, but as security provider. Ukraine's battlefield experience is unmatched.

NEW An initially-secret report for Customs and Border Patrol in 2013 found: In many vehicle shooting cases, the “driver was attempting to flee from the agents who intentionally put themselves into the exit path of the vehicle, thereby … creating justification for the use of deadly force.” 🧵

Very revealing, and dark, to learn that they do this on purpose to give themselves an excuse to murder people There should be NYT deep dive investigative reports on this. But I don't think there has been

The Supreme Court has to be expanded if anything even resembling the U.S. is going to survive. They lied to get appointed, they’ve taken bribes and at least four of them should be impeached.

I remember when non-binding language suggestions from university HR departments were national news, subject to repeated outraged columns in multiple media outlets. Do you see any of that national outrage about this real, bona fide, state-enforced intimidation & censorship?

Lots of people saying that the hate against A.I. has to stop, but honestly, I think we could be doing more. Hating more. Hating on a deeper level.

#OtD 25 Jun 1943 the Jewish Fighting Organisation in the Polish Częstochowa ghetto launched an armed uprising. They held out against Nazi troops for 5 days, and over 5000 survived through the ghetto until liberation by the Red Army in 1945 stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/9757...

Tom Emmer himself in 2016: "I'm going to tell you, the Somalis, according to the measurements that have been used over time, are some of the fastest-assimilating populations that we've had." www.thisamericanlife.org/600/transcript

Immigrants pulling up the ladder after them is a tradition older than the United States has been a nation, but we need to keep reminding the Emmers of the world that their own ancestors were once in these same crosshairs.

"Why should Pennsylvania, founded by the English, become a Colony of Aliens, who will shortly be so numerous as to Germanize us instead of our Anglifying them, and will never adopt our Language or Customs, any more than they can acquire our Complexion." - Ben Franklin on Emmers' German ancestors

The Texas GOP platform is already further to the right than the state lege (though not by much) but on trans rights it has gotten particularly extreme: www.chron.com/texas/articl...

“And while the 2024 platform called for bans on any "normalizing curriculum" about transgender people in public schools, the 2026 platform added a call for a ban on transgender people working in schools in any capacity, as well as a ban on using trans people's pronouns.”

A) suspects only possessed firearms and lacked both the explosives and the fully constructed drones necessary to carry out any attack B) The conspiracy was largely uncoordinated and disorganized, demonstrating a profound lack of tactical realism It was just some MAGA incels playing tough guys.

Adonis will often look like he has his tongue sticking out in pictures but he actually has a scar on his lower lip that makes it stick out a little bit 🥺

Given what happened today at the Supreme Court, we @immcouncil.org have updated our fact sheet on Temporary Protected Status to include information about today's decision. If you want to learn more about the program, check this out. www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org/fact-sheet/t...

Largely given up yelling at the NYT because - as I learned too late - my outrage was the point. Leadership felt embarrassed by the Bennet resignation and viewed themselves in competition not with WaPo or WSJ but Bari Weiss and Chris Rufo. They latched onto trans rights as their proving ground.

MS NOW Exclusive: Sen. Maggie Hassan wants RFK Jr. to reveal who got special access to that new weight loss drug not yet available to the public — with the help of the Trump admin — and why the 79-year old got this preferential treatment.

Wow. This focus group on the MAGA cult. Spoiler: not MAGA anymore. Tori Hurst: "They made me watch a documentary on January 6th, and I didn't even know what happened on January 6th prior... And I looked at him, and I said, 'Scott, did that really happen?' And he was like, 'Where have you been?’”

Reminder that they want to use the data for this to train ai bullshit. Do not participate.

Kagan makes sure that Trump’s gutter racism — and the majority hand-waiving it away — gets into the record.

Yeah, I mean that sounds great! Can Chicago get that in writing?

First, Vivek Ramaswamy called Ohioans lazy and mediocre. Now, he urges Ohioans who are struggling with the cost of living not to wallow in “envy, jealousy, and bitterness” over his billions of dollars.  The good people of Ohio deserve better.

I don’t begrudge anyone success. But I can’t support someone whose financial success is built on the backs of people he defrauded. Ramaswamy is a smarmy man working to enrich himself through amplifying ideas that have never worked for the masses. Ohio can’t buy what he’s selling.

Its not about race, gender or immigration status, its all about the Benjamin. You got money you got clout. Buy a government to let the good time roll. Now you know.

Another win for Chicago!!! Trump keeps trying but he will NEVER take down Chicago. #Pinks #ProudBlue www.rawstory.com/broadview-co...

They also stopped reporting the names of people who die within Trump's concentration camp facilities. What are they doing with these people? Digging mass graves and throwing them in it like the Hitler regime?

This regime acts like Nazis with such frequency—explicitly deporting whole categories of people based on race, explicitly *importing* whole categories of people based on race, reframing our founding principles as devoutly fascist—that it's no wonder they squeal when called Nazis.

Sulzberger’s nyt, having led the right-wing propaganda campaign against trans ppl, is now moving to its next target: Women and their right to control their own bodies. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/24/u... 🧵

Gil Dezer used the jet as recently as last Friday. As soon as he got back, Journey Aviation, who crews and operates it, sent it out for ICE. That Ghana landing this morning may have been a third-country removal.

I got this once. All I remember is sitting down on a job site where I was working outside in 100+ temperatures, insisting I would be "fine" and I just needed "five more minutes" I wound up in the ER with an internal temperature of 102. And it took 4 bags of saline to rehydrate me.
