Precisely. Democratic "leaders" aren't willing to fight Trump but one mayoral candidate shows up who is progressive and Muslim and the same people come out guns blazing.

Let’s be honest—this man didn’t just beat Andrew Cuomo in the NYC mayoral primary. He beat a party system. Cuomo spent millions, got every establishment endorsement, rolled out the unions and it wasn’t even close.

Really the only thing members of congress can do is call for impeachment because trump's attack on Iran is illegal. Without GOP support, though, those things can't happen - but that shouldn't stop them from calling it what it is.

Here is yet another reminder that the Constitution is not optional… Congress must authorize military force before any president—including Trump—launches a strike.

Personally I am unfamiliar with any legitimate activity that requires switching license plates, which by the way is illegal.

Impeach. Convict. Remove. Incarcerate. Now.

This is not about the merits of Iran’s nuclear program. No president has the authority to bomb another country that does not pose an imminent threat to the US without the approval of Congress. This is an unambiguous impeachable offense.

Senator Padilla makes an excellent point: if the FBI and Secret Service were willing to physically remove a Senator they had just escorted into the room, force him down on the floor and cuff him because he tried to ask a question What do you think they & ICE do to regular people?

Another notetaker!? No way.

Pope Leo’s first US episcopal appointment, San Diego’s Bishop-designate Pham, a Vietnamese refugee, invites priests and faith leaders to “stand in solidarity”with migrants at courthouse on June 20, as they make court appearances.

Your moment of joy and hope

This is why we need @jasmineforus.bsky.social

When Americans raised concerns about RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine views, he said he was "not gonna take away vaccines from anybody." But now he's taking them away from millions of mommas and babies. Vaccine recommendations should be based on science, not RFK Jr.'s political agenda.

So, is there anything constructive we can learn from the MAGA takeover of the Republican Party? Because I get the sense that the DNC isn’t going to fix @democrats.org on their own.

What creeps. Disgusting.

Oh now he tells y’all?? After spreading lies and conspiracy theories, RFK Jr. says don’t listen to his advice—as head of HHS. Sir, we already knew. We were just waiting on you to admit you’re unqualified.

"You are not refugees. You are just a case study of white flight dressed up as martyrdom. You are not escaping violence, you're escaping equality."

No one gives someone a $400 million dollar jet for free without expecting anything in return. Be serious.

Me on hour 14 of dragging Republican Medicaid cuts for filth and giving them no end in sight

🚨HIT THE PHONES TO SAVE MEDICAID - PLEASE AMPLIFY & ACT 🚨 TODAY the House will be marking up deeply unpopular massive Medicaid cuts. MANY GOP on the committee are in tight districts. Calls and pressure ARE effective here. Call today. Type your zip to get a script ⬇️ OcasioCortez.com/savemedicaid

TIL recap: Not too long ago, I learned that you can put "nameless static" blocks into ECMAScript classes. What for? A static initialization block runs when the ECMAScript class is initialized (don't confuse this with using the class to create a new instance). www.stefanjudis.com/today-i-lear...

Happy to announce @nodejs v24.0.0 💚! This release brings several updates, including the V8 13.6 and npm to version 11. As a reminder, Node.js 24 will enter long-term support (LTS) in October, but until then, it will be the "Current" release Check it nodejs.org/en/blog/rele...

Duckworth on if she's open to voting to confirm Mike Waltz: "I think everybody on that Signal chain needs to be fired ... he's failing up ... I'm not open to voting for him, no, because he's already demonstrated he's incapable of doing the most basic thing, which is handling classified information."

This guy outside the Capitol seems to really be enjoying his weekend. What a vibe.

To all those who said boycotting Target was a waste of time. It wasn't. Keep it up, y'all!

Pritzker: Time to stop wondering if you can trust the nuclear codes to people who don’t know how to organize a group chat. It’s time to stop ignoring the hypocrisy in wearing a big gold cross while announcing the defunding of children’s cancer research…

Just sat down on the Capitol Steps with my good friend @booker.senate.gov to have a real conversation about the dangerous situation we confront in America. And what we can all do to stop it. Tune in live: www.youtube.com/watch?v=XBej...

JUST NOW: Leader Jeffries, Senator Coons, and Senator Booker sat on the Capitol steps, watched the sunrise, and talked about the budget fight. This is what we need—bringing people in and speaking plain truth. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @coons.senate.gov @booker.senate.gov

Assets gonna asset

Thank you to everyone who showed up, good news, the judge has been released!

Watch MAGA Republican Byron Donalds (R-FL) get DESTROYED by seniors at his town hall in ruby-red Estero when he tried to defend DOGE. He tried to pivot to Obama and Biden, but the crowd kept yelling: “Yes or No.” The man who wants to be Florida's next governor is in for a rude awakening.

in which chatgpt tells me about it's undocumented hardcoded boundaries and some of the ways it's trained to be intentionally deceptive. (i got here by proving that it had done facial recognition for me in the past, after it denied doing so for a while. once it "remembered," it stopped obfuscating.)

Senator Van Hollen is a hero.

Same, NASA guy. Same. Q: Are you concerned about NASA’s science budget and how that could impact further discoveries? Astrophysicist: Yeah. Frankly, I’m scared. And when I’m not scared I’m exhausted. And when I’m not exhausted, I’m scared of what’s happening to science in our country.

Dear senators who think you can’t do anything, Today, Senator Van Hollen - through diplomatic pressure - got a meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. So that thing you’re thinking about doing? DO IT. ~ All of Us

I’m align with this

I don't understand how some folks are unable to see that the illegal disappearing of people is a class issue. The wealthy and well-connected get due process. The rest of us don't. This is part of the oligarchy, not a distraction from it.

This is how you do it. The "Mutual Academic Defense Compact". The moral imperative may be to fight... but the strategic imperative is to not fight alone: www.gazettenet.com/UMass-Amhers...
