The DOJ is conducting a fishing expedition in an attempt to manufacture criminal cases against election workers. We’re thankful that a federal judge in Georgia blocked the Trump administration from subpoenaing the names and identifying information of election workers in Fulton County.

🚨BREAKING: Trump DOJ says it will deploy federal election monitors to six states during the 2026 primary season. The announcement comes the same day DOJ threatened election officials with potential criminal prosecution over noncitizen voting. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

In May I wrote for @rewirenewsgroup.com abt the sacrifices women make in politics. We’re expected to stay silent abt sexism & assault. Many of us knew who Platner was & were told to be quiet to beat Collins. Jenny Racicot’s story shows we were right rewirenewsgroup.com/2026/05/12/e...

🚨 BREAKING: U.S. strikes Qeshm Island, Sirik, and Bandar Abbas in southern Iran.

Belgium’s team celebrated their victory over the US by mocking Trump’s signature double jerk off dance move.

These spy glasses have been banned by my local school district. Thank God.

Planned Parenthood Arizona clinics are once again providing care for patients insured through Medicaid. Services for Medicaid patients had been on pause since September.

On the day that Americans celebrate the start of its war with England, Ken Paxton makes a pilgrimage to England. And, as if that's not showing bad political judgment enough, he takes his mistress. And they are videoed doing what looks like a Walk of Shame. Or, rather, a Walk of Shamelessness. Glory!

Tetanus is returning. In the 1930s, Tetanus was widespread in the US. The development & deployment of vaccines reduced annual cases from ~ 600 in the 1940s to 17 in 2020. Mortality dropped 99%. There is no cure for tetanus. We have forgotten how life was before vaccines. 🧪 archive.today/c6QVx

I loved talking to organizers in Menomonie and across Wisconsin about how they're beating back data center proposals coming from shady development companies left and right. One told me, "Organizing swiftly and fiercely and relentlessly is the key.” ✊

“After it ended, the Belgian team’s social media account had a message to the U.S. on Twitter: “Overturn this.” Perfect. #WellPlayed #Belgium

While Texans celebrated July 4, Senate candidate Ken Paxton was seen walking the streets of London with his alleged mistress. Just like Graham Platner, he should never become a U.S. senator.

Maybe we could just get a photo of Mitch holding a newspaper with today’s date on it.

Two observations from the World Cup; Fifa should be disbanded USA should never be allowed to host it again

Hey Texans: Is this really what your Christian values look like?

Overturn a red card? Let's overturn that red hat.

Belgium’s goalkeeper said his team was shown a “lack of respect” while captain Tielemans suggested the controversy motivated them to “do our talking on the pitch.”

Basically data centers use just as much, if not more during the general use of electricity vs, cooling servers. So whether a data center uses water to cool it's nuclear hot and loud servers or air conditioning - they use the same amount of water. We are screwed.

America didn’t just lose a World Cup match. We lost credibility. A President personally intervened with FIFA over a disciplinary decision and created the appearance that political power could influence the rules of the game. The reputational cost was far greater than the sporting cost.

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...

So now millions of football fans around the world view the US as cheaters who used political corruption to influence FIFA and we lose anyway. So much winning. When’s the next war?

Belgium trolled the US with a savage two-word message after knocking them out of the World Cup: “Overturn this.”

I’ve just woken up and seen the result from Seattle … if someone had told me before this World Cup started that I’d react to a Belgium win by punching the air in delight and screaming: “GET IN!!!” I wouldn’t have believed them, but here we are. Marvellous stuff. Well done you waffle-eating legends.

Americans are now so used to their president cheating and breaking rules that many of them seem genuinely not to understand why the world was rooting for Belgium.

Independent Scotland will be one of the Richest Countries in Europe. Are you a Unionist, running out of excuses?

“The question of whether the beautiful game has helped Seattle meet some of its sustainability goals — and perhaps beautified the city in the long run — is something city leaders and advocates will be paying attention to long after the tournament has ended.” Traffic today on 2nd Ave 😍

England red card.. So does the king call fifa now? Is that how this works?

I’m not going to be lectured by a degenerate rapist, pedophile, slob who is stealing from American taxpayers about the tenets or dangers of communism, especially since it’s obvious that he has the intellectual capacity of an overflowing toilet at Coachella.

The England team without immigrants #FifaWorldCup

A commendable stand taken against corruption by— … omg

I am so proud of my Senator @slotkin.senate.gov for standing up to trump.

🇳🇴 Norway manager Stale Solbakken: “Bad bad bad bad bad decision by FIFA that will hurt the World Cup. Not good for the sport. If they beat Belgium it will always have that extra thing about it. What happens with the next Red Card?” (From @bbcsport)

This is what cowardice looks like. Hundreds of masked extremists marched through our nation's capital on America's 250th birthday, hiding their faces while claiming to "reclaim America." But the image everyone will remember isn't them. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

WATCH: Trump's FIFA Foul Play

"A massive data facility uses automation and, once built, rarely employs more than a few dozen people. Data centers really only benefit the Big Tech emperors, to whom, according to a growing American consensus, we are no longer willing to sacrifice our towns." newrepublic.com/article/2126...

"Trump has done the most American thing possible: assert undue, unwelcome, unasked-for influence and power to get his way," writes @mlsist.bsky.social. "The US have done tremendously at this World Cup... but a win on Monday may well be perceived as one engineered by Fifa."

Jimmy Carter had to gave up his peanut farm to avoid any conflicts of interest while president. The Obamas were forbidden to refinance their home while he was in office. Donald Trump has made over 21,000 stock trades while in office, often using his office to manipulate markets.

Really bummer that Trump got involved with Team USA at this year's World Cup. We all saw what happened to the Knicks. I'm afraid USMNT is not much longer for this tournament

The president’s mockery of his former ally comes just days before both leaders are set to attend a key NATO summit in Turkey.

It’s been six months since the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. Here is how the federal government has stonewalled investigations, and how Minnesota law enforcement is attempting to push for accountability anyway

I guess @fifaclubworldcup.bsky.social just does whatever presidents and Prime Ministers tell them to do. I was very excited to watch the US game...not so much anymore.
