Brazil continues to lead the way in taking on rogue power. A Supreme Court panel has moved to put lawmaker Eduardo Bolsonaro on trial for seeking Trump's help to halt criminal proceedings against his father, former President Jair Bolsonaro.

After months of increasing grocery prices, Donald Trump is finally admitting he was wrong. Americans are literally paying the price for Trump's mistakes.

It’s been 15 years since Congress raised the minimum wage. In that time, costs for rent, groceries, and utilities have soared. Americans deserve a raise.

Open AI loses copyright case in Germany. Judge Elke Schwager summarized the case saying that if you want to build something and need components, "then you purchase them and do not use the property of others."

Poor and middle class families are being robbed to pay for a technology created by fascists that will rob poor and middle class families if it works, harm the environment, and it’s also probably not going to work.

Can you imagine a woman of color, say a Black reporter, who was caught in an affair with a Presidential candidate THAT SHE WAS COVERING, getting completely rehabilitated less than a year later with a cushy new job and puff piece profile in the paper of record? Nope.

If you’re a fan of French film, movies about making movies, watch Nouvelle Vague. Easy contender for best foreign film. Great performances and writing. Amazing recreation of late 50s Paris.

I'm not saying fascism can't happen here, or that we are out of the woods, but it's shit like this that gives me confidence that it ain't gonna happen. It's because Trump is so fucking stupid. Incapable of rational thought, or of acting in his own interest.

If I were Michael Wolff, I'd advise Trump NOT to generate more news about Jeffrey Epstein.

I refuse to count my chickens, and this also seems to describe a dynamic that applies to days and politics of yore. Trump is not a politician, he’s a cult leader. I think the only thing that kills his presidency and the party is a shit economy, which they are actively creating.

Spread this far and wide. National security professionals will be livid. Also, it is just plain bad leadership - make all your people suffer something that you are unwilling to do. Bad! www.propublica.org/article/fbi-...

⚡️ Brazilian influencers are hyping “dream jobs” in Russia that trap young women in military drone factories. RFE/RL reports the offers promise hospitality work but end up forcing recruits to build Russian combat drones.

I’m not gonna Google it.

What do you call these? Pencil trolls? The hardest maybe I’ve ever laughed in my life was on acid at a Grateful Dead concert in southern CA. Was in the back of then-girlfriend’s car and saw one of these on the floor and laughed as hard as you can laugh for like 20 minutes.

No one: The bananaz: Let’s talk about inflation.

No it’s not.

I can’t believe this guy has not quit the internet after writing the worst article of the century. I encourage you to block him. He’s like Cuomo. Shameless. Dumb as a bag of dicks.

They frame her as the active sex-haver, which is a pretty fuckin’ weird way to describe a rape victim. “Ended up having sex for money”? GTFO

Is anyone else leaving the US because they won’t be able to afford both housing and healthcare? Thank god for a second citizenship that I haven’t had to use until now. Democratic leadership needs to resign. @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social

The left does not have enough no civic-engagement infrastructure. We connects the dots between the No Kings marches and the nuts-and-bolts local engagement that must happen every other day in order to sustain a win.

“oops”

ICE agents pepper sprayed a 1-year-old baby, then lied about it That's where we are now A BABY!!!

You helped open the government, go fuck yourself. My healthcare is going to end up bankrupting me.

Resign bitch

YOU HAVE BETRAYED US I WONT BOTHER TO READ ANYTHING YOU WRITE…… GFY

Nice statement - now please resign

Terrible tragedy If Schumer is not removed as leader, I will not vote for Democrats in 2026

Correct. I need to delete my prior post.

Epstein’s and Trump’s views of women aren’t really that much different than slave-owners’ views of slaves. They are not humans, they are property-objects.

ALERTA ‼️ Puesto de Control de la Policía Federal/ICE en Clara Barton Parkway en dirección este hacia DC, cerca de la salida de MacArthur Boulevard. Hombres enmascarados están deteniendo camionetas de trabajo blancas y haciendo arrestos.

This is the way

The Orsk Oil Refinery has halted operations.

Yay for dead fascists

ALERT ‼️ Federal law enforcement/ ICE checkpoint on Clara Barton Pkwy eastbound into DC, near MacArthur Blvd exit. Men in masks pulling over white work vans, making detentions.

Dude

False. He’s patched because he knows he’d be in prison right now if our zombie compatriots didn’t make him president

Huh.

UPDATE — With Rep. Pramila Jayapal (Chair Emerita of the Congressional Progressive Caucus), there are now at least 12 congressional Democrats, 15 Democratic-aligned organizations, and 8 Democratic candidates calling for Chuck Schumer to resign as leader:

Rhymes with ball-of-frost

Photos or video of him groping a 13 year old won’t change anything. He’s already confessed to sexual assault on tape and won 2 presidential elections.

The attorney general and the FBI director, a manosphere podcaster bro, pulled into the situation room a member of Congress best known for getting kicked out of a Beetlejuice musical for drunkenly giving her date a handy, in order to pressure her about the president's child sex trafficking scandal.

If recent events have caused you to lose trust in The New York Times, might I suggest a subscription to @us.theguardian.com.

It’s all downstream of not hanging every officer above major in the Confederate army. The law demanded it. But Lincoln and Grant — with laudable but misguided mercy — let them go. Lincoln was rewarded with a bullet to the brain, and Grant was gifted the exact guerrilla war he had tried to avoid.

HAHAHA it’s just a little rape. “I think there’s a difference between murdering an infant and putting a healthy adult male in a coma with a hammer so let’s cut the hammer assailant some slack!”

I would say the shot suffers from the back of the driver’s head, out of focus, taking up the entire frame.

Something absolutely perfect about Larry Summers riffing about the scourge of woke cancel culture being unfair to predatory men in a friendly email to his pal JEFFREY EPSTEIN.
