The ‘dog days’ of summer get their name due to their association with the Dog Star, Sirius, found in the constellation Canis Major. The first visible rising of Sirius occurs during the hot stretch from early July to early September. Woof.

You can also skip the fireworks at home and donate to your local shelter or rescue instead.

We are not distracted. KEEP TALKING ABOUT THE EPSTEIN FILES. #TrumpEpsteinCoverUp

Time and time again, Ashley Moody has sold out Florida families to enrich her special interest donors. Read the extent of her corruption here:

“She cares more about lining the pockets of corporations like Duke Energy than she does about representing the people of Florida.” — ECU President @tiffanymuller.bsky.social with @avindman.bsky.social on #MostCorrupt2026 member Sen. Ashley Moody.

Ahead of Senate confirmation hearings, Senate Dems demand Todd Blanche answer series Q's on Killing of Renee Good Hiring of Jan 6 riot defendant by Dept Ghislaine Maxwell transfer Shuttering of Public Integrity Section DOJ role in Trump claim Pres. Biden's pardons are "void" The slush fund

Courts just blocked the Trump DOJ from accessing state voter rolls for the 10th time — this time in New Hampshire. A federal judge dismissed the Justice Department effort — saying it didn't comply with a section of the Civil Rights Act of 1960 pertaining to federal election records.

Todd Blanche's deadline to put up or shut up is tomorrow. It's true! @katiephang.bsky.social is a bad ass. Setting precedent and taking names. Check out our conversation about her case here. Never any paywalls. Ever. www.muellershewrote.com/p/a-major-wi...

Marco Rubio is against birthright citizenship. But Marco Rubio *is* a birthright citizen. Ted Cruz is against birthright citizenship. But Ted Cruz was born in Canada. He only got US citizenship by a birthright citizenship law because of his US mother. They are both shameless hypocrites.

This is Penny. She came up with her own trick. Really hopes you like it, and will repeat it as many times as necessary until you acknowledge that you do. 14/10 (IG: pennycorgipoo)

Socialism for the wealthy, feudalism for everyone else.

The stupidity… it hurts! 😩

NEW: A fourth federal appeals court has rejected ICE's massive expansion of mandatory detention for immigrants that have resided in U.S. for years. It seems increasingly certain that the Supreme Court will take up the issue next term. www.politico.com/news/2026/06...

It’s not a family photo without the pets 💕💕💕💕

Albania, citizens are gathering outside Police Station No. 1 in Tirana, demanding the release of 6 protesters detained during demonstrations outside Parliament. As the "Flamingo Revolution" rolls into its fourth week, each arrest only seems to be drawing more people into the streets, not fewer.

BREAKING on MS NOW: Mike Johnson's latest effort to force through the SAVE America Act to rig elections just failed. The House failed to clear a procedural vote 198-224 on the NDAA largely because the SAVE Act was attached.

@davidgoodtrouble.bsky.social Good Trouble coming in November 2026

Liking Mayor Pete Buttigieg 👍🏼.....

A rhetorical "trick" I keep seeing from cis commentators is something like "if they'd target such a small minority, they won't stop there." ... phrasing that implicitly accepts the majoritarian premise that "minority status" justifies discrimination & outright degradation of rights.

NEW: "Put up" or "shut up" time for Trump's Justice Dept. Critical deadlines ahead for: Epstein files release Slush fund Kennedy Center Reflecting Pool "water touching" Lots of enterprise reporting here: open.substack.com/pub/macfarla...

“Put up or shut up” time Huge two-week stretch for Justice Dept and Todd Blanche …. as courts are poised to HALT the Trump vanity projects …. and force the release of more Epstein files youtu.be/Di3Xp53IKDI?...

FLASH: Supreme Court rejects Trump’s attempt to end birthright citizenship Large, but predictable loss for Trump

Great but also proof that at least two SCT justices have zero limits when it comes to this Administration.

Should never had needed this win, but we needed this win. Congratulations to the ACLU's brilliant Cecillia Wang.

NEW: Donald Trump’s effort to single-handedly impose his preferred election system on the nation — one forged in the fire of his 2020 grievances — has slammed into endless and likely insurmountable legal obstacles. w/ @joshgerstein.bsky.social www.politico.com/news/2026/06...

JUST IN: DOJ has lost for the 10th straight time in an effort to obtain states' voter rolls. This defeat is courtesty of Judge Joseph LaPlante, a George W. Bush appointee in New Hampshire. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

To be crystal clear here -- the nun was **wearing her habit** and walking to Sunday mass when ICE arrested her and hauled her off: apnews.com/article/nun-...

The Cook and Slaughter opinions, released together, show just how political the Supreme Court is. As Kavanaugh's concurrence in Cook makes clear, the Court treats the Federal Reserve as special for no reason other than its own policy preference.

NEW: In another 5-4 decision, in Trump v. Cook, SCOTUS has REJECTED Trump's attempts to fire Federal Reserve Governor, Lisa Cook, while her case continues to be litigated. The Trump Regime wanted to pause the the lower court's ruling allowing Cook stay in office, but SCOTUS said "no."

alito 100% thinks that the “blue shift” in vote counting represents a dynamic change in the outcome. to borrow from @kalimurray.bsky.social this is not a smart man

Trump and Republicans radically raised health insurance premium costs -- doubling them on average -- and so 5 million Americans who used to have health insurance now can't afford it. More than half the people who have this kind of health insurance live in GOP districts: www.npr.org/2026/06/26/n...

BREAKING: SCOTUS blesses Mississippi law accepting ballots received up to 5 days after Election Day. Nothing in federal law requires ballots to be received by Election Day. 5-4 decision. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

Happy Pride, Seattle!

The Stonewall Uprising was a riot for equality, love and the freedom to be who you are. We won't let today's bigots erase this pivotal moment for progress and undo everything those brave LGBTQ+ Americans fought for.

The Commanders have had about 16 starting quarterbacks over the last 30 years that cannot throw as good as this

Release ALL the Epstein files now!

Jared Kushner wants Albania's protected wetlands. The government obliged. Protesters said no. 29 days later, they're still saying no — with flamingo cutouts and flags, in the streets, every single night. Europe is watching. Is anyone else?
