Ms. Rachel: As the American Academy of Pediatrics says, there is no safe amount of time for a child to be in detention. The Dilley immigration detention center must be shut down. We need to end the cruel policies of family detention and family separation.

I urge ALL AMERICANS to keep their guard up and be ready to fight. The mid-terms are NOT guaranteed. We have to fight voter suppression, gerrymandering intimidation, false claims, DOJ interference, and more. Check your registrations BEFORE voting. Spread the word.

A SECOND person died of exposure last winter after DHS dumped them in the middle of nowhere, miles from their home, without notifying their family.

It's really fucking weird to have the president of the United States doing a surprise morning show call-in to do punditry about the war he started!

They came here fleeing persecution; rather than give them refuge, Marco Rubio’s state department will send them to die in countries they’ve never been to. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/11/w...

That must feel SO good!

BREAKING MS NOW: ICE has detained over 500 babies and toddlers under Trump. On an average day, ICE has 25 children aged 3 or younger in custody, according to joint research by MS NOW and The Marshall Project.

this is so weird!

Thomas Massie says the conspiracy theorists were right about Section 224 of the NDAA, which he says will merge the US military with the IDF. Massie says the provision is treasonous and warns that it will force the US to compromise its own security for Netanyahu's demands.

Our job in 2026 is the same as it would have been in 1939—not to be "Good Germans" in the face of obvious fascism, racism, wicked cruelty.

The best take I’ve seen yet

To receive endorsements like this from people who have known me for so long really means the world to me. Maine deserves a candidate that they can trust--someone who does the right thing when no one is looking and has been consistently showing up for Maine their entire life. I am that candidate.

@velshimsnow.bsky.social @chrislhayes.bsky.social With all the talk about Maine Dem Senate primary, it might be nice to mention (even interview?) the other D on the ballot, David Costello, who is actually very well qualified and does not have a closet full of skeletons.

Because we are talking about red lines now, I am curious why so many Democrats dismissed Dem voters who said A GENOCIDE was a red line. You know, the murder of women, men, and children? Vote Blue No Matter Who! Ditto people who support ICE that literally kills people. What are the red lines?

In 1993, Trump signed a mortgage for a Florida home, pledging it would be his principal residence. Seven weeks later, he attested a neighboring property would also be his principal residence. In reality, he does not seem to have lived in either home. (Published Dec. 2025)

BESSENT: I believe the president's remarks were taken out of context HASSAN: No. He said, 'I don't think about Americans' financial situation. I don't think about anybody.' That's a direct quote BESSENT: Groceries are going down HASSAN: When was the last time you were in a grocery store?

This. We don’t talk about this enough. They cut their teeth on legal shenanigans to engineer the desired election outcome. We shouldn’t be surprised they’re still at it. It’s why they’re where they are.

The heart of our constitutional crisis in one exchange between me and Sec. Mullin. When asked a simple question - if he will obey court orders - he says he will not because some court orders are "politicized". That's not how democracy works. And that's why we are in a crisis.

Imagine being so unable to love your child that you set fire to the whole damn world instead.

For anyone counting: 1,055 Project 2025 recommendations have been implemented out of 1,913.

As long as Democratic leaders are considering approving ICE funding if reforms are made, I won't be contributing. The only sane path forward is a complete termination of all ICE facilities, operations, and agents. There is no scenario where ICE is acceptable. I will not live in a police state.

This is amazing! Everyone talks about the future of transportation as if it will be invented in Silicon Valley, China, or Europe. But Africa may end up leading the next mobility revolution. REMEMBER THIS NAME: “Spiro” isn’t just selling electric motorcycles. 🧵

in general I think popular discourse confuses "vices that were downplayed, excused, or ignored for men's benefit" with "traits that were upheld as masculine virtues" and this phenomenon is part of why: these particular men not only have few if any virtues but single out their vices for broadcasting

🚨BREAKING: The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) said in a yet-to-be-published proposed rule Friday that it’s drawing up plans to radically crack down on mail voting by sending ballots only to voters who are registered with the federal government. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

How I feel about it.

Not only was Steyer's answer on this really good, it's appalling how BAD Becerra's answer is. He immediately rolls over then tries insulting the reporter's intelligence.

It's reported thatJustice Alito's son is working for the Regime, since last year, in Treasury Department as high level lawyer. But his name is not listed at the Treasury, but he has an email address at the department. But yet Alito has made rulings involving the Treasury. youtu.be/UuymJ6tQdKo?...

I've been warning about this moment for two decades over at Techdirt The U.S. is too corrupt to regulate data brokers (and their exploitation and sale of location data) and the check has come due

Wyden's letter says data brokers pose a national security threat, but it's much broader than that. Mindless deregulation is a national security threat. Corruption is a national security threat. Lobotomizing your regulators because AT&T and Uber told you to is a national security threat.

1/ At 17 weeks pregnant, Emily Waldorf was suddenly faced with a life-threatening situation: Her baby’s foot was dipping out of her cervix. Doctors told her the longer her cervix stayed open, the higher her risk of infection. They knew how to treat her. There was one issue … 🧵

With all that privilege, but, she was still just a woman

As an anthropologist, I endorse this message!

so like lemme weigh in on this as someone who is more financially comfortable than many in my generational cohort: everything I have gained seems precarious and temporary because I know the people with real money will take it all from me the second they get an opportunity and no one will protect me.

It certainly seems that Congress should damn well have a shitload of questions for Peter Thiel: www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...

8 Senate Democrats just voted to advance one of Trump's judicial nominees. Which raises the question: WTF? Dick Durbin John Fetterman Ruben Gallego Maggie Hassan Martin Heinrich Jack Reed Jeanne Shaheen Sheldon Whitehouse

This is so true, it hurts. But there's not one single untruth in this essay that every American needs to read and take to heart. I'm not as hopeful as Jared, but his words inspire us to stay open to the possibility of a better world.
