Trump continues to use his pardon power as a 'Get Out of Jail Free' card for his political allies.   From Jan. 6 rioters who attacked police to financial fraudsters to polluters — it seems there’s no crime he won't pardon.   He's making a complete mockery of our justice system.

This blew my mind. Some of the largest data centers can require up to 5 million gallons of water per day, equivalent to the water use of 50,000 people. Why are we selling out the survival of our planet to enrich a handful of Big Tech CEOs?

To flip the Senate, Democrats don’t need a miracle. We need a strategy. PROTECT: Michigan, Georgia, New Hampshire FLIP: North Carolina, Ohio, Alaska PLUS ONE MORE: Iowa or Texas, and don’t sleep on Nebraska. You can thank me later.

@colorado.gov since you are letting criminals out of prison that interfered in our elections, maybe you could save a little face & protect voters like Gov Sherrill? Your vote without fear bill did not protect us from your terrible decisions & in no way safeguards our voting rights.

Senator Jon Ossoff talks about Trump enriching himself in every way. Meanwhile, the American people continue to suffer. November can’t get here quick enough! #Pinks

The nation's top law enforcement officer is defying a federal court order...right now...TODAY...with a shrug. Nixon handed over the tapes. Even the scoundrels used to obey the gavel. That's the 250-year-old deal being tested this week. www.jackhopkinsnow.com

Trump said "eradicate" about half the country. On its birthday. Into a microphone. That word wasn't a slip...it was a sales pitch. And the product is YOU, scared. Fuck this punk. www.jackhopkinsnow.com

I can’t find a link on BlueSky, but I would encourage everyone to listen to Obama’s Fourth of July remarks from today. Then, compare them to the absolute bile you’re going to hear from Trump tonight. Our government doesn’t have to be a walking clown show. Vote accordingly.

The backlash is real… against Colorado’s governor for pardoning election denier Tina Peters I spoke with Denver news anchor Kyle Clark

Dolly Parton’s message thanking Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce for their $2 million donation to her Imagination Library! “I'm blown away and overjoyed with that gratitude. Now, it's evident that you two have made giving back a key part of your lives.”

Mamdani: "Those who led through exclusion & isolation have tried to win power & enrich themselves by turning us against one another ... today, too many of our leaders do not believe in a vision of this nation as an asylum for the persecuted, but rather as one that persecutes those seeking asylum"

Life is exhausting these days for lots of us, and I think I’ve figured out why. I think it’s having to sit through the pretending... johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/americans-...

At least they're not hiding their corruption. Go big or go home.

Jack Smith on MS NOW: "I'm very concerned of what's going to happen in the next election, absolutely."   "I think the state attorney generals have a tremendous role to play here … And I would also say that I think a thing that all of us can do is support election workers and election officials."

Spot the difference

JACK SMITH: "My strong view is rather than critiquing people who haven't done what we'd like them to do, let's focus on when we see someone doing the right thing, we hold them up."

Clarence Thomas argued the 14th Amendment was written narrowly for former enslaved people and doesn't apply broadly today. Using that same logic, the 2nd Amendment was written for muskets and doesn't apply to AR-15's, but somehow, he's never made that argument.

I haven’t seen *any* coverage of this and worry people have just become numb (or are too distracted by the World Cup, Knicks, etc.)

Ted Cruz says Texas is 3rd world country.

Trump’s net worth has almost tripled since he’s been back in office. He rugged his crypto followers for over $500 million. Over $1.4 billion in total crypto profit. Financial corruption hawks on the right, where you at?

Didn’t see this coming. Another Senate race to watch closely. Lindsey Graham spent years acting like South Carolina belonged to him. The voters might have other plans. Dr. Annie Andrews is at 45%, and among informed voters, she leads Graham 46% to 43%.

He creates his own reality & expects us to believe it. The FELON's FANTASY: Meanwhile, back on EARTH 1:

Judge Sullivan ordered Todd Blanche to comply "by no later than July 2, 2026" with the provision of unredacted documents and other important items in the Epstein Files. It's July 1. Let's see what today brings in terms of Blanche's attempts to appeal, etc. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

In an unprecedented act of dissent, active-duty USAF Major Jason Watson was arrested on the Capitol steps after calling for the impeachment & removal of Donald Trump. Risking his career to uphold his constitutional oath, his arrest marks a historic moment. ✊🏻✊🏿✊🏼✊🏾✊🏽

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.

I don't need Trump voters to admit they were wrong, I just need them to vote differently in 2026 and 2028. Humiliation isn't required of them, change and opening their eyes is.

President Claudia Sheinbaum is rolling out Universal Healthcare for 120 Million Mexican residents. Now that is leadership, I’m both jealous and very happy for the people of Mexico.

I’m going to take a wild guess and say that not one dime went to veterans.

Stock trades by President. The blatant corruption is just staggering

Gov. Jared Polis passed over other deserving inmates to give clemency to Tina Peters, according to two members of his clemency board who revealed Polis overruled the unanimous recommendation of his experts. Polis has now fired both of them.

But rewriting his record, questioning his patriotism, or pretending he hasn’t devoted much of his adult life to serving the United States would be a lie. His service happened. His sacrifices happened. His character was built long before today’s headlines. We should support his purpose. 4.

Defense Meritorious Service Medal. Meritorious Service Medals. Joint Service Commendation Medal. Years of service to this country and to our allies. You can agree or disagree with his protest. That’s your right. 3.

THIS IS WHAT IS CALLED FOR UNDER FASCISM — BRAVERY Before the attacks & the hot takes start, a few facts: Major Jason Watson is a graduate of the US Air Force Academy, a career logistics officer, a NATO officer, and a decorated veteran who volunteered for a 365-day tour in Afghanistan… 🧵

Georgia Governor (D)Keisha Lance Bottoms 52% (R)Rick Jackson 47%

This is FALSE. ICE data showed DHS averaging 1,259 deportations/day through April 4. There is ZERO sign deportations rose by 154% since. Mullin also mixes up DHS's (also FALSE) claim that 70% arrested have any criminal record at all, and claims that 70% are felons. Wildly wrong.

HARD WATCH: Please don’t look away. An autistic and bipolar 15 year old CHILD was violently detained with a knee on his neck and a hand over his mouth. According to reports, the officer involved is a sergeant with the Louisville Metro Police Department in Kentucky.

They're plundering the national treasury.

Wow! He told the truth for once!

Fact check: Vought has, in fact, repeatedly expressed support for Christian nationalism by name. He has been very public about that. religionnews.com/2025/06/23/o...
