Everyone saying “Trump’s support never falls below 30%” needs to take a slow look at the green curve. It shows now hint of bottoming out. Even MAGA is not having the new high-gas-prices-fake-Jesus-war-war-war-Trump.

STEFANIK: President Trump didn't call for genocide, Jake. You are putting those words in his mouth TAPPER: 'Your entire civilization will die'? STEFANIK: It's the terrorist regime, Jake. He's targeting the terrorist regime TAPPER: You're changing his words!

"there is only one majority in this country and that is the working class."

Trump’s “complicated relationship with the Bible” is a lot like my complicated relationship with Charlize Theron

Trump is reported close to a "deal" with himself under which US taxpayers would pay him $10 billion. I served in multiple communist and authoritarian dictatorships, but I never witnessed corruption on this scale or this blatant.

Like I said, the Strait ain’t open.

"When it comes to theology, Donald Trump’s vice-president clearly knows best. Are we about to see an American break with Rome?" asks Guardian columnist Marina Hyde

The Palestine-Israel conflict remains the starting point for all of these other conflicts.

Trump has certainly mastered how to feed reporters bullshit who dutifully pass it along uncritically since showing an ability to get him to take their calls apparently demonstrates clout and outweighs other considerations such as accuracy and truthfulness. bsky.app/profile/atru...

The most frustrating & disheartening aspect of life these days is that the shitty things shitty people do ... work. They're rewarded. Over & over again, we are collectively reinforcing the lesson: you can do this shit. Try it. To take just one example: Elon buying Twitter. It worked.

This report hits on many important issues & identifies important problems that could be addressed. But it fails by writing about the problem of trust, from the outset, without even mentioning the decades of concerted attacks & lies coming from the far right authoritarian party & right-wing pundits.

Chuck Schumer's two votes tonight in favor of bombs and bulldozers to Israel is yet another reason Senate Democrats must vote to remove him as leader post the midterms.

This is what Gabbard does to protect her position. Her job is not protecting the security of the United States of America; it’s serving Trump‘s revenge fantasies.

No more US military aid to Israel | Bernie Sanders

Dear god. Very, very serious allegations of mass civil rights violations at the State of Florida's Everglades immigration detention center (officially known as "Alligator Alcatraz").

They also pay a MUCH smaller percentage of their income than you do ... assuming they pay any income taxes at all.

Vought believes the poor should be healed by Trump instead of receiving medical care.

America's right-wing in a single exchange. It's perfect.

BALINT: Are you trying to get revenge on states that did not vote for your boss? VOUGHT: What's interesting about your question is Joe Biden-- BALINT: Oh, for goodness' sake!

Incoming Hungarian PM Péter Magyar went on Orbán's state TV today for the first time in 18 months: "This factory of lies will end once the Tisza govt is formed... What has been going on here since 2010, which even Goebbels or the North Korean dictator would have been envious of, cannot continue."

"Magyar wasn't engaging in a policy debate... His framing was Viktor Orbán and Fidesz are a criminal organization and we need to dismantle this... he connected the impact of the criminal organization to these rural Hungarians' experience." @ambpressman.bsky.social on how Magyar beat Orbán.

The Tennessee legislature has now passed the trans registry bill requiring all medical information about trans people, including therapy notes, diagnoses, and prescriptions be reported to the state so it can be published to the public. apnews.com/article/tenn...

Trump has pushed unfounded claims of Tylenol use in pregnancy being tied to ‘a very increased risk of autism’

"Party leaders are stuck in an anachronistic time warp, severely out of touch with – or contemptuous of – what most Democrats currently believe about Israel," writes @normansolomon.bsky.social.

Amazing. He's gotten so bad that even the NYT can't ignore it any more.

"Revived"??? As if MANY haven't been screaming this for years. Thanks for finally noticing. Guess you ran out of "Biden so Old" and Laptop stories.

‘My life has become a rollercoaster’: Francesca Albanese on death threats, danger and dread after accusing Israel of genocide

Disgusting.

A study in Communications Medicine finds that Long COVID’s disability burden rivals that of Alzheimer’s and asthma in the US, but Long COVID receives 14% of its years lived with disability-proportionate funding from the National Institutes of Health. go.nature.com/4v23Nzv #medsky 🧪

Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice. It doesn't have to be this way.

The same week the NYTimes was devoting its significant resources to producing this ridiculous piece about Lauren Sanchez Bezos's call for rich people to not worry and be happy, Ryan Hass, an independent journalist in Oregon, was investigating this horrifying story about a death in an Amazon plant.

And prices only increased 1.5%. So a $4 burger would now be $4.06. At the same time, hundreds of thousands of workers got substantial raises, with the average raise registering at more than 10%. capitalandmain.com/despite-apoc...

Notable.

Here a grandmother is forced to do a gig job with no job security because she can’t afford to retire? What are we celebrating here?

‘Everything is gone’: Israel destroys entire villages in Lebanon

Nearly 6 billion people live in the 101 countries that a study has identified as confronting a net decline in water supply — signaling enormous challenges for food production and a heightening risk of conflict and instability. (Published July 2025)

right. just because the US has abandoned science does not mean it stops. US commentators need to adjust their world view to "post-hegemony" bsky.app/profile/stev...

The party that claims to be bravely defending “Western Civilization” from its supposed imminent destruction by barbarian hordes, has empowered a guy who eats roadkill to shut down research on one of the most significant scientific breakthroughs in decades.

Nye also took aim at proposed cuts to STEM education, calling efforts to eliminate NASA’s outreach programs “quite personal” and warning they would damage the nation’s long-term scientific leadership. www.rawstory.com/trump-nasa-2...

Hideous concentration camps. In America.

In his first 100 days, Zohran Mamdani has: -Delivered millions in restitution for workers cheated by gig companies -Cracked down on predatory landlords -Launched the first stage of a universal childcare program -Fixed thousands of potholes in NYC streets This is what leadership looks like.
