Irony is dead

Good god, it's only Monday.

Oh, hello there!

The greatest threat to our democracy is us not believing in it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=coPY...

If you're in Kansas, please vote NO on the constitutional amendment on August 4th! It's important that Kansas keeps its merit-based, non-partisan method of selecting Supreme Court justices.

The world’s soccer fans have taken to Kansas City, the smallest American host of World Cup games, succumbing to the charms of its Midwesterners, its artisan barbecue and its long, but largely overlooked, history with the “beautiful game.” www.nytimes.com/live/2026/us...

A few words on the passing of South Carolina Sen. Lindsay Graham, who spent the last ten years of his life eagerly helping Donald Trump in his quest to destroy American democracy. youtu.be/z4HMequIiiY

one thing i forgot to mention, as an illustration of his character, is the way he sat back and said nothing when trump attacked his late friend, john mccain.

A really good piece. “One man [Graham] proved willing to betray ideas and ideals that he had once stood for. The other [Romney] refused. Why?”

This is quite the obituary. He "lived his life as a pilot fish, a parasitic sucker fish hovering about larger predators."

Happy Caturday!

Watched "Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die" tonight. I knew Sam Rockwell starred, but didn't realize it had several of my favorite actresses: Haley Lu Richardson, Juno Temple, Zazie Beetz. I liked it! 👍

It's not enough they're killing humans on the street in the middle of the day. They're now going for the endangered species, too, by opening habitats to drilling, mining, farming and construction.

This is really the meme about how men will try everything but therapy.

$103 billion in 120 days. 😡

The 1957 Triple Play scandal led to our current merit-based system. Don’t throw it overboard. | Opinion

As a Chiefs fan, I'm going to spend the next few months trying to get Donald Trump really invested in the Broncos

Only 352 days until our long national nightmare is over & the real national team plays in the WC

No wonder Democrats frighten them.

Again, ending the day with Monet. Can never have too many sunflowers in my feed.

Stand your ground 🐘

I like how they combine the temp construction jobs and the permanent jobs into one number: "The project is expected to create more than 1,200 construction and permanent jobs over the next three years" Perhaps a journalist should ask them to separate the construction jobs from the permanent jobs?

Well those birds do look scary 🫨

Good thread and video on how the Administration hijacked America's birthday ⬇️⬇️⬇️

A $3 @mta.info subway fare and some good Q train timing can buy you one hell of a view of the July 4th fireworks and the Brooklyn Bridge light show! Huge shoutout to the train operator for slow rolling over the Manhattan Bridge and the conductor for announcing it.

Since Republicans in KS are trying to end our merit-based process to select Supreme Court justices, thought I would re-up this piece. If you're in KS, vote NO on the Constitutional Amendment question in August!

One more thing to ask Blanche at his confirmation hearings.

This is really interesting. Thanks to @leahmcelrath.bsky.social for the gift article.

You had me with Free Bird. 😁

✨women✨ Wow. Wow. Just wow. 🤯 Song is O Superman by Laurie Anderson These women are being interviewed by Charlie Rose HT: le_Dauphin #Pinks 💖🌸💖

(note: he's fine)

Haha. Nick Offerman nailed it nearly three months ago.

I love sunflowers ❤️

I need to end the day with something pretty to try to calm my brain. Thank you, Monet.

Birthright citizenship, explained.

More people on stage than in the audience. 😬

"The President is now a king, and our only hope is to elect a more benevolent king." Good 🧵⬇️ on the Supreme Court ruling on Slaughter.

I recommend taking 6 minutes out of your day to watch this beautiful gem. It's just lovely.

A couple days ago, I asked which potential 2028 Dem presidential candidate will be targeted next. Looks like we have the answer. Newsom - Feds Pritzker - Feds Buttigieg - Anonymous "Concerned Citizen" NEW: Gallego - Feds (Republican lawmaker tried an ethics probe, too. That failed.)
