NANCY PELOSI: We must find the next generation of Democratic leadership. Young, charismatic and exciting candidates who can energize the party. People that voters love because they're not 80 years old and sold out to big capital. CHUCK SCHUMER (behind sniper rifle): Found one PELOSI: Take the shot

Iran not losing a single game despite playing this tournament as second class citizens is earnestly so impressive.

The World Cup being here was a LAYUP that he fucked up. Nation of immigrants celebrates its 250th birthday with an international sports tournament viewed by essentially everyone everywhere celebrating how unique and special the USA is specifically. Instead… we’re bombing competitors.

If you think criminalizing mere possession of disfavored information will stop with so-called Antifa, ask yourself why the admin sought warrants to learn who subscribed to Don Lemon on YouTube. Read more from FPF’s Seth Stern and @joinjeremy.org in @theintercept.com.

Literally manifesting a united front against the will of their own constiuency with a swiftness and vigor they could not muster to even feign resistance to open fascism

it’s very important to them both that they win the league, not least because they want to defeat our friend, who is also the 10yo’s dad

me: should i chronicle history or document current events? funk soul brother: write about now

crazy to me that rich people have been so successful in perpetuating the lie that the poor are stealing from everyone. they don't have any money. the rich people are the ones with the money! that's who stole the money

I can’t be the only one who thinks it’s INSANE that we are simultaneously hosting the World Cup and bombing one of the nations playing in said World Cup.

Blaming Trump isn’t enough. Democrats need their own plan to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

IMHO, the Supreme Court is a *bigger* problem than Trump, and it should be the primary target for reform. Trump and Congress would both be very different under a law-abiding SCOTUS, which would have stopped government action clearly animated by racism and racially gerrymandered districts.

Kinda weird when people come to a revelation about needing to win elections after losing a couple primary contests to the left and not when the courts and both houses of Congress and the Presidency are controlled by the other party

Data reveals that the Trump regime has detained at least 500 infants and toddlers since last year. One toddler who was detained at the CoreCivic-operated migrant family jail in Texas became so depressed that he stopped eating solid food for 12 days, his mother said: open.substack.com/pub/americas...

Don't let bored football fans tell the story of Caitlin Clark's season: defector.com/dont-let-bor...

The political right’s messaging machine amplifies these digs at the left from centrist Democrats because they hurt the candidates. Nothing would be worse for the GOP and conservative movement than a reinvigorated Democratic Party that embraces tax and spend big government policies. They know that

less offsides and more on each other’s side

the world cup —much like the olympics— is so special, man. fans from all over the world coming together to cheer their country and, in a lot of cases, for other countries too. humanity can be so dope if we just got out of each other’s way and just be.

i have eaten the shrimp that was at the culvers' and which you were probably saving for the rich forgive me they were delicious so crispy and so opulent

Congrats to Cape Verde, the most powerful 0-3-0 World Cup team of all time

question I'm pretty sure I know the answer to: Have any Democratic politicians commented on the demented, politically targeted convictions of the Prarieland ICE protesters?

The usage of “says” is just so messed up. He's not claiming it happened, the police confirmed it. Do better NYT

any Valks fans coming to Pride tonight who want to be interviewed about what the night means to them? let me know!

We’re going to have to empower the IRS to go after political nonprofits. Moderates are gonna take one look at groups like Priorities USA and say fuck that. We’re going to have to break up big tech and media. Moderates gave us consolidation in the first place.

As is typical, the Times omitted the voices of trans students affected by these policies and then did a flattering profile of a organizations whose entire existence is predicated on pushing trans people out of society.

NEW: Cities all over Arizona are aiding ICE—but local activists are pressuring city leaders to change their policies. And now, with local elections coming up in July, collaboration with ICE has become a major issue in a bunch of races. Learn all about it! boltsmag.org/arizona-muni...

This is not over yet. Champagne & 19 others have a mix state charges related to Prairieland, including organized criminal activity, terrorism, & aggravated assault. Their trials are set in Johnson County - where the sheriff himself is on trial. Champagne's state bond is set at $15 MILLION DOLLARS.

Algae-loving radicals are hell-bent on desecrating this beloved national monument to undermine Trump’s achievements. These saboteurs must be punished. Vandalizing a D.C. landmark is a heinous crime. Unless, of course, you’re doing it to overturn an election.

If the court can't handle announcing its opinions in a public, responsible way — considering the concerns raised by Sean — then that's on them. And, if they can't even handle announcing the opinions right, maybe we've got a bigger problem here and they shouldn't be the ones deciding these things.

“Harlaine and her family own their home and pay taxes, she said, money that funds the very hospitals and police she counts as neighbors. ‘We’re actually who you would probably want to have around, because we uplift, not destroy.’”

The tyranny of Zohran Mamdani using tax dollars to provide services benefitting the people paying taxes chill me to the bone and demonstrate the rank selfishness of his political project, “we pay the taxes so we should get something out of it” Self-absorbed egotism, that’s all it is.

politics is about storytelling, and there's just a very different valence between "I am visibly going to do everything possible to get us to the promised land" and "I will pick one reasonable little project, don't get your hopes up too much for more, big stuff will have to wait"

Liz Soto and Savanna Batten are 2 of those sentenced to 50 years in prison for Prairieland. I visited them in a north Texas jail—11 months into their incarceration over a July 4 noise demo—to meet the Trump admin’s “Antifa terrorists”. from behind glass, Soto said, “They didn’t like my book club.”

if anyone is going to sabotage the next president’s agenda they’re going to look a lot more like john fetterman than brad lander

Colorado Gov Jared Polis (D) released Tina Peters, saying she was remorseful despite obvious evidence to the contrary. “I do show remorse,” Peters said today. “The remorse is that people that should be in prison are not. That's my remorse.”

You work your whole career to play in the World Cup, you make the roster, you’re on the team, you sit through two games waiting for your chance, then you finally get the call, you’re gonna be on the field at the World Cup, 20 minutes in a meaningless game but still! The World Cup! And then BAM!

9 years ago, NBC gave this woman $20 million a year to host a morning talk show and be one of the top faces of its news division.

full pardons for anyone convicted in these nspm 7 convictions should be an express and mandatory part of any democratic platform

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

and this isn't just some random evil racist congressman. he's the majority whip, the third most powerful member of the house! this *is* the party.

Tom Emmer: "Minnesotans are so afraid that you're gonna call us a racist, you're gonna call us an Islamophobe. You know what? I'm done being even the least bit careful. Somalis don't assimilate. And if they don't assimilate, then they should go the hell back to where they came from."

anyone who found “woke” more annoying than people being openly racist can go to hell

The last overwhelmingly popular democratic president ran on the words “hope” and “change“ and the main thrust of the party since then has been “actually things are good now, stop saying things need to be changed eww get away from me shut up shut up shut up”

Detainees at Delaney Hall report being fed rotten, infested food; denied medical care; and forced to work for pennies, if they’re paid at all. defector.com/two-nights-o...

Incredibly revealing of the media's biases that Darializa's win in NY-13 has resulted in a raft of negative stories about *her* and basically zero "how did Espailliat fuck up so badly?" stories.

how is this is a crisis, this has been tried several times and every time the ppl trying this get excommunicated and then only the press even remembers they ever existed

Friends, they’re not even trying to hide their voter suppression. ⬇️

The World Cup is proof that if not for our leaders, the vast majority of the world's people would get along just fine.

Fauci needs to sue this man into bankruptcy, if only to dissuade the other inveterate liars of this administration.
