Folks, if I confused a clasp with shoelaces, I'd go see the Geriatric Psychiatrist ASAP. Biden never did anything this concerning. Not even close.

Macron offered Trump the use of Versailles to sign an unconditional surrender, in the most elaborate prank played on a Germanic by a Gaul in over 1700 years.

Why are these smart people trusting a malignant narcissist's word on ANYTHING? It's not that he lies like he breathes. He has no concept of an objective reality.

RIP Mark Rothko. You would have loved how the hydrogen peroxide bleach is only turning the Reflecting Pool blue around the perimeter

Good news, America! We have a wealth tax in Massachusetts, which levies 9% on every dollar above 1 million earned in wages, real estate sales other than primary residence, and investment cash outs. It would net us up to 90 billion from Musk over his lifetime.

Elon Musk just became the world's first trillionaire. The typical American household would have to work more than 11 MILLION years to make Elon Musk's level of wealth. We need a wealth tax.

multiculturalism is pretty great

Across 9 states with over 1.5 million ACA enrollees, insurance carriers are asking for 2027 premiums to go up another 16.4% on average next year.

Words I never, ever thought I’d hear anyone say: “I love the inflation”

www.nytimes.com/2026/06/10/m... I read this, and I think, "JD Vance read all of Tolkien, and only gleaned how to be Sauron to Trump's Morgoth." That's not eyeliner, kids. It's his darkness leaking out. And, I'd rather be fighting Sauron than Morgoth, so keep resisting, and JD will make his move.

strange how focusing her career almost entirely on trans people and "protecting bathrooms" didn't help her in her own *GOP primary*. it's as if transphobia doesn't actually help win elections... 🤔

The Nazis took a small number of autistic youth, picked by Asperger, and put them to work on the V2 and Enigma. The rest were killed. Turing, and systemizer women on his team, cracked Enigma. Turing was hounded for who he was, and his female team fired. Allies better than Nazis, but barely.

Victor Marx, the Republican frontrunner for Colorado Governor, claims he was forced to kill a man at age 7 and talks about the necessity of killing people related to his “high risk missionary” work. But he wouldn’t tell me how many people he’s killed. “Does it matter?” Marx asked.

Spencer Pratt just got beaten by two progressive women of color. I'm agnostic, but that is some kind of sign.

Trump: "I didn't guarantee no war." Trump guaranteeing no more wars:

Donald Trump proposes a 1.776 billion slush fund for terrorists. In my book "On Freedom" I proposed $1776 as guaranteed monthly fixed income for Americans. Each kind of future is possible. We choose.

Ok, as a citizen of Massachusetts, I think we have to own our mistake and correct it. We never should have let Maine and Vermont split off after the Revolution. Our new proposal is that we take those back, in exchange for Puerto Rico and DC becoming states.

New in PN: What does government oppression really look like? "Every single action described above has been taken against transgender people in the US & UK. And who are the loudest, most influential voices supporting this oppression? These same Christians who are convinced it's being done to them."

apnews.com/article/trum... The GOP is in favor of starving children and babies on WIC, to pay thugs to kidnap and kill everyone. That is what they did.

New in PN: Why does the media ignore Trump’s madness? "The president frequently demonstrates a level of malignancy that still manages to shock. He doesn’t try to hide it, but the mainstream press covers his disordered thinking as a colorful 'quirk' rather than an escalating threat to the nation."

“Unitarian Universalists and Deists, who were reportedly excluded from the latest list, are among two categories represented among signers of the Declaration of Independence.” religionnews.com/2026/06/04/d...

The amount of corruption in this administration is astounding.

Massive win! House Democrats won on war powers with Jeffries leading the way. Healthcare, not war. Congress, not kings. #FundHealthcareNotWar

Just completed a congressional oversight visit with members of the New Jersey delegation. Delaney Hall should be shut down. This is not America.

Hakeem Jeffries just left Delaney Hall & immediately said it should be shut down. Human beings, not criminals inside, treated cruelly, for no reason. The Trump regime is running a concentration camp it refuses to let anyone examine, & that refusal is the confession. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social

Trump is taking food out of the mouths of babes so his buddy’s pool company can inflate its profit margins at taxpayer expense.

This nonsense statement is merely meant to make you forget that his data centers already drive up your water and electric bills, as they strain the capacity of those services. For "intelligence" that is like polluted water or an unreliable grid. They should pay us for using our public goods.

That drone hangar he calls a bunker is part of a plan to stay in power, stuck in our white house, unable to face the public at large

He has my Democratic convention vote for getting here before Seth Moulton.

He means it. It's a drone hangar bay and bunker, not a ballroom.

"Europeans may imagine that the EU is a mere bureaucratic inconvenience. But the Russians have never believed that. On the contrary, the Russian president has long understood that when unified, Europe can resist Russian influence and Russian corruption." @anneapplebaum.bsky.social on Europe Day

Shapiro: Somehow, he can’t find the money to pay for healthcare, but he can steal from you to pay off the criminals who stormed the Capitol.

Not enough news coverage of how the insurrectionist reparations fund is a clear violation of the 14th Amendment. We need to enforce the Constitution in its original meaning and plain text. You can't imagine away parts of the Constitution just because it is politically inconvenient.

He is absolutely building a fortress from which he'll attack America.

Trump explains his new nickname while a picture of his ballroom falls behind him: "It's the Dumocrats. They're dumb. It's a new name."
