Somebody say something hopeful, please

The weirdness of billionaires purchasing celebrity status and cosplaying stars is so weird. Bezos out there like he’s George Clooney— nobody wants to see you, dude. You are not loved.

@governor.ca.gov @schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov Mayte I’m missing it but it seems you could addressthe kidnappings taking place in LA a lot more. Do you have no authority at all to rid us of these brownshirts? Is there a manager we can speak to? Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Imagine if the Democratic Party actually helped Zohran instead of trying to kneecap him at every step. A better party is immediately possible if they stop shoving money into the anti-trans combination Racism Dial/Money Toilet and instead get behind candidates people actually want.

Got to take the good news where we can. Zohran Mamdani appears to pull ahead of Andrew Cuomo, according to new poll

This subhed wow wow wow

Many of us have been writing for years now how this administration is made up of liars who have no problems lying on the record and on background. I hope editors keep this in mind as they consciously/subconsciously parrot talking points from officials—both on the record and anonymous sourcing.

holy shit. Cuomo halted an investigation into the Weinstein case after a donation from Weinstein’s former lawyer’s firm to his reelection campaign… guys, this was in 2018 AFTER the Weinstein exposés (multiple) had been published & the #metoo movement was ascendant

Incredible piece that every NYer should read

When people support Andrew Cuomo, what they’re saying implicitly is that they don’t care about the women he’s already sexually harassed and retaliated against and they won’t care if he does it again. It’s a political stance that enables discrimination against women in government

stating the obvious but its so fundamentally insulting to women/survivors everywhere for Andrew Cuomo to have the nerve to run at all let alone be a frontrunner. It would be less insulting &demeaning to just spit in our faces. Every supporter/endorser of his is a gross misogynist

This so nice www.nytimes.com/2025/06/20/u...

Shouldn’t the NY Times headline note that this new policy breaks the law?

I keep thinking about Juan David Ortiz, who was an agent and a serial killer and how little DHS did to protect his victims www.usatoday.com/story/news/i...

A large pot sits in plain sight. There’s a frog in it. Every day, Leader announces his plans to boil the frog. His campaign slogan was “BOIL THAT FROG.” He has already made at least one run on the stove. A man stirs the pot with a large stick. “It’s a metaphor,” he says.

Definitely share this timely video about the Temu Goebbels Ethnic Cleansing Road Show... 📺 bsky.app/profile/thej... A refresher of some of the other activities by the sleazy, amoral Republican Member of Congress from the @progressaf3.bsky.social series... MORE ⬇️

Make this go viral.

The takeaway from the Tucker Carlson Ted Cruz interview is that the American public has been so badly cheated for so long by the people pretending to be the political media that when anyone asks a basic follow up that an 8th grade schoolpaper reporter would it feels like cutting edge journalism

Fucking LAPD

just please remember, whatever the news says about LA after this, that this is *always* how it goes. Everything is extremely calm until the police actively escalate for no reason. It was true during all the BLM protests and it’s true now.

I guess it was a slow news day on Fox and they wanted to generate some content?

This is a real problem

They launched a coup, suffered no consequences for it, won back power, and have used the power to pardon everyone involved while remaking the country through violence and intimidation. It’s just ridiculous to talk about the political violence of yelling at ICE agents within that context.

In a Gangster State, the dear leader wastes other people's money on military parades to broadcast his fake strength, attacks the legislative branch and destroys programs that benefit the people.

How many times did we fucking tell you. You gave up on wearing masks. You let them demonize masks. So they got to write the rules. And the rules are cops “discretion” is that disabled people should be arrested. Because when ableds get to decide who is actually disabled, we lose. Every time.

A female democratic representative was killed in Minnesota today by someone impersonating a cop. Turns out the threat to women's safety isn't trans women identifying as woman, it's men identifying as cops.

One of the most significant and alarming unconstitutional assertions made by a federal official in decades.

It's mind-blowing how little attention this extraordinary statement has received. It's briefly mentioned in a couple news articles, but this MSNBC opinion piece is the only extended discussion of it I've seen: www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

I’m just saying whatever actually happened it’s republicans’ fault. Their hands are covered in blood and this was the inevitable result of decades of dehumanizing people and when they and the mainstream media insist it’s “both sides” they are full of shit.

So.. the garment workshop in Paramount where 49 seamstresses were arrested Thursday wasn't really a Sinaloa front operation laundering tens of millions of dollars like Homan said on Morning Joe? What on earth could he have been thinking??

Lawyer, here. Habeas corpus (pls Google it) applies to every human on U.S. soil, regardless of citizenship. Put plainly, habeas corpus has been eliminated, for all practical purposes. I’ve personally spoken to many who’ve been arrested/caged, 100% unaware of what law they’re thought to’ve broken.🇺🇸

@governor.ca.gov can you sue to stop the abductions?

Today I.C.E. kidnapped Mr. Edgar Hernández while he was selling flowers. - #ICE agents faces covered - unmarked car - no visible names/badge numbers - refusal to provide same when citizens demanded Folks please understand, habeas corpus & due process have been suspended. This is domestic terrorism.

Does @jimmykimmel.com have to do EVERYTHING?

“You want to get rid of illegals? Quit eating!”—third generation farms sounds off on ICE raids www.tiktok.com/t/ZTjGb8T3T/

Farmworkers are hiding because Trump made them targets. Without farmworkers, the crops that feed our nation rot and our tables go empty. This isn’t strong immigration policy — it’s economic sabotage fueled by hate. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Why is every news outlet not playing these videos on repeat? Shame on all of you fuckers.

After this nightmare is over we are going to celebrate diversity so hard their Nazi heads will explode.

Sorry, actually what is going on is this kind of Gestapo shit.

They want there to be something happening, but right now in occupied Los Angeles I’m singing karaoke with my boyfriend while my daughter is out to dinner with her friends.

Seventy five times this week, but I’m not stopping

Found myself embroiled in two arguments about the “optics” of waiving the Mexican flag, was even asked to share a TikTok about why we should only waive American flag. I’m not Mexican, but I am now convinced that everyone should waive Mexican flag tomorrow in solidarity. I am Spartacus.
