Given SCOTUS docket, would seem kinda newsworthy if JD Vance had dinner with Brett Kavanaugh at Chevy Chase Club on Saturday evening (Kav is a member) Maybe some reporter could ask if this happened and what they discussed - given their respective roles and what we learned about JD today via NYT

You know what? Orange man IS bad

Fascism's a fever you break with shit like what happened in New York last night. Create more excuses to feel things like that together.

all I know is keep the Knicks far away from this White House man

Please god let this close the portal to Hell the Cubs opened in 2016

God they’re having so much fun. I wanna be there!

unfortunately if new york elects a good mayor the knicks will be allowed to win the title

lol the Knicks lost one game in the last 8 weeks of the playoffs and it was the Trump game

I happen to be home I’m NYC tonight. What a blessing holy shit

Just heard wembennada on the streets of New York that’s a keeper

yeah, I can't say it makes sense to campaign on the continuation of an approach that has the National Guard here indefinitely

I cannot believe what just happened.

this is one of the best national anthems I've ever heard wow

Tough guys. How about you GTFO of DC?

What did the people bemoaning Platner’s primary win think was going to happen tonight?

Man these transphobes just love finishing in fifth place huh

In his first interview since being kicked out of the US, FIFA referee Omar Artan tells’s the NYT’s Matt Bigg that the biggest dream of his professional life has been shattered. The World Cup ref was questioned for 11 hours, held in a cell and then dumped on a plane. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/09/w...

I talk about this in a recently published article — if the grant money is conditioned to prevent organizational speech writ large rather than being tailored to the programs within the organization receiving government funding, then that is an unconstitutional infringement on speech.

Breaking on MS NOW: Donald Trump was just "thunderously booed" during the National Anthem at the NBA Finals in New York, according to the pool report. He was shown on the Jumbotron and then booed so much that the shot was taken down.

🤯

I unironically think this could work, what oppo are they going to uncover on him?

Spurs clearly trying to get Fox going but I’m relieved Castle hasn’t been involved yet

I still can't believe I'm about to watch the Knicks in the Finals.

The maj. op. decided not only that Congress did not mean for the VRA to address racial vote dilution, but that Congress *can never* pass such legislation under the Fifteenth Amendment.

I believe Callais must be overturned one day, either by a wiser majority or an outraged population, and the sooner it happens the better off we’ll be.

It’s been said but worth repeating, this is SCOTUS ignoring lower court rulings that these maps violate the Constitution. They do not care.

This heinous ruling confirms a worst-case-scenario reading of Callais as an all-purpose shield for racist lawmakers who want to gerrymander Black communities into electoral oblivion. And it’s outrageously partisan—a totally unprincipled gift to the GOP. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

I just went 80-2, think you can go 82-0? www.82-0.com/share?id=CBt...

Ken Paxton was indicted for scamming his own friends. He convinced them to invest hundreds of thousands in a company while secretly pocketing a commission. Paxton sold out his own friends for a quick buck. What makes you think he won't sell you out in the Senate?

Bill Pulte not only has no respect for the rule of law, but he also has no qualifications to be DNI whatsoever. There is not a sane person anywhere on the political spectrum who thinks this is a good move.

I get asked occasionally why me, as an older cis man, I’m so passionate about transgender rights - especially kids. One of the first out transgender people I met was a young woman who tried to take her own life, we were able to intubate and resuscitate her…

I love Wemby and would be rooting for him any other year. But this incoming finals loss will only inspire him to be better.

OG v Wemby is going to be terrific basketball

Think this game is going to make Presti think long and hard about how they can retain Hartenstein

This is the message. Any Democrat willing to sacrifice trans folks—especially kids—will sacrifice anything.

It’s gonna be really funny when despite all the handwringing on here Platner wins decisively

Yeah because the electoral base has a huge problem with infidelity, no wonder Trump lost

🧵 Public science in the US has taken some heavy hits over the last year, but the White House OMB is proposing a series of changes that will result in a TKO for science as we know it unless we fight back. Here's what's happening, and why it matters. 1/n

i’ll admit i did not think the retired judges’ motion to re-open the Trump v. IRS case would succeed. but now that is has…lfg? at a minimum, DOJ will be forced to justify its conduct in writing

subtle.

Notably, while The NYT, WSJ, WaPo, Guardian, NBC, AP, etc covered Bari Weiss blowing up "60 Minutes" today, one major outlet did not: CNN. The network—on the brink of being taken over by David Ellison—did not mention it once on air or online.

ICE is targeting journalists at Delaney Hall. They’re hitting photographers, breaking fingers and smashing off lenses.

The Office of Remigration is at the heart of Trump’s dramatically expanded efforts to urge other governments, many with track records of public corruption, human rights abuses, and human trafficking, into accepting immigrants sent from the US, who are not their own citizens.

In case it needed to be shouted from the rooftops: This is a concentration camp. It's about ten minutes away from me. When I go out there to do what little I can, I see the shadows of people in the windows begging us to see them, to help them. The people who try keep getting beaten or disappeared.

🚨I’m back at Delaney Hall, where I just heard EYEWITNESS ACCOUNTS from detainees. My concern is that hunger strikers are being retaliated against, all because they were advocating for better food, access to basic medical care, and judicial hearings.

The person who wields a sledgehammer and pledges on day one to knock down Trumps ballroom will be the early favorite to be the next democratic presidential nominee
