We all keep hearing about the unforgivable abuse in the ICE torture prisons. The guards have left their humanity behind, purposely harming people just because they can. Saying it's terrible isn't good enough. Here's one man who might find some justice in court. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

If Andy Beshear doesn’t call for a special election before August 3rd and force Mitch McConnell to prove he can speak in a video, then Andy Beshear becomes the new Merrick Garland. I’m sorry but I make the rules.

The Taco Bell finger pointing is a psyop to redirect attention from the real culprit, the deregulation and lack of oversight in our food supply

This is how to speak to every single one of those sycophants.

Balint on Hegseth's obsession with testosterone and his attacks on women in combat: "I think it is indicative of the fact that there are so many people in this administration that have some weird, intense, homoerotic, feelings towards men while also being incredibly homophobic..."

I'm hoping this man can stay, but the repression by ICE is unfair and relentless. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/16/u...

Erasing truth isn’t the 1st step. They removed oversight, fired experts & installed loyalists. Also, they’re establishing an unaccountable militia, politicizing & consolidating media, disrupting alliances, ignoring laws, imprisoning & deporting “undesirables.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

tWumpus, his staff & loyalists are all racists & so small-minded. “I am no longer surprised when Donald Trump uses his platform to provoke attacks on Black, brown, or immigrant communities — but I am always disgusted,” said Keith Ellison, Minnesota’s AG. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/11/u...

We already had a deal with Canada, in which it paid to build the bridge and would recoup the tolls until they were made whole. Now Trump is holding up the bridge opening as leverage to coerce more. Mob boss move. No wonder the world hates us. www.freep.com/story/news/p...

Bravo to these judges, who are traveling around the country to educate the public about the importance of the rule of law!

Tonight’s mom joke: TIL that a "publican" is a person who owns or manages a pub. Let’s imagine that a publican leaves the business, then buys another one later on. Would that be a REPUBLICAN?

Leftover military weapons of war have no place in campus crowd control. Tear gas maybe. But AR-15s and sonic weapons that can damage hearing for life are definitely inappropriate. If campus police have them, OF COURSE they’ll use them. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

I don’t know if Trump really had anything to do with FIFA‘s decision, but he is taking credit for interfering with the integrity of the game. The man cares nothing for sportsmanship. He would steal a trophy from a child and call himself a winner.

1/8 A poem posted on Substack by Clarissa Sr., an American Grandma 🕯️ A Democracy Lantern: Discerning the Bogeyman The midterms are coming, November is near, And pundits are pushing a mountain of fear.

Trump declared that Democrats, immigrants, & the press are Communists who must be exiled from the nation. So I say we must rise up to protect our nation: acknowledge our imperfections & celebrate our strengths, build our multi-ethnic future. Love will win. open.substack.com/pub/heatherd...

We knew about Trump’s stock manipulation of course. And now we know more. He and his buddies & family are all just so blatantly, searingly, nauseatingly #CORRUPT newrepublic.com/maz/post/212...

Justice Brown Jackson is lighting the way for future do-overs 👏👏👏👏 “Today’s decision makes one thing clear: The Court’s objective is protecting guns, not consistently preserving any principle of law,” Ketanji Brown Jackson wrote. newrepublic.com/maz/post/212...
