What better way to wrap up Pride Month than to celebrate today’s anniversary of Obergefell, the landmark SCOTUS decision that recognized that gay marriage is the law of the land! 🏳️‍🌈 Today and every day, love is love and I will always stand with and fight for the LGBTQ+ community! ❤️🌈

CBS paid the president of the United States millions in bribe money and now they censor news reports so it does not annoy him. I don’t know how much plainer we can put this.

Per NY Times’s Michael Grynbaum on X, this is Sharyn Alfonsi’s email to her “60 Minutes” colleagues in full:

If you are not mortified by these MAGA parents saying they would not object if Trump used the military to execute their children, you are as brainwashed, dehumanized and deplorable as they are.

Washington, D.C.'s vending machine LitBox distributes books, with a serving of hope as local writers struggle with arts funding cuts. n.pr/4nYSLHq

Hypocrisy in its lowest form

For the price of a $400 million jet/bribe, you too can get your very own US security guarantee

Remember that Trump lamented that domestic violence was a crime. This is their version of “masculinity”

Pause your doomscrolling and listen to this story.

Seattle Children’s is laying off over 150 staff and slashing hundreds of open positions. Why? Because of Trump and the Republicans' health care cuts. Republicans chose tax breaks for billionaires over care for our kids. This is Trump’s America.

The Senate map suddenly looks a lot better for Democrats. But still not a slam dunk.

Each week, The Contrarian selects an undaunted individual working to defend democracy This week's spotlight: Former Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown With his comeback bid now official, we celebrate Brown as an undaunted, unafraid, and unapologetic champion for working people.

Facts matter.

JD Vance has taken vacations in the following months of the Trump-Vance administration: February March April May June July August

I’m done with anyone who has an issue with Biden’s physical and mental health or about Harris’ leadership ability and or cognitive acuity. Your giving this idiot a free pass every time says more about you and your true motives than any actual “concerns” you ever pretended to have.

Oh cool, I didn’t know that cartoonist Gerard Donelan was a Massachusetts local! ✏️🏳️‍🌈❤️ www.wickedlocal.com/story/region...

Hey, Dem’s who are smearing Zohran Kwame Mamdani, perhaps what you should really be concerned about is why voters rejected the others candidates messages in favor of Zohran. Maybe it’s time to listen to what the people want, now what YOU think is best.

E. Jean Carroll will give $83M to everything Trump hates

Wouldn’t it be interesting if Florida’s official state tourism agency found out exactly what people thought about their brand new concentration camp? (I made a thing - feel free to copy and share) [ @hcrichardson.bsky.social , you just asked in your video to be tagged in any new memes, right? ]

In Issue No. 11 @silashouse.bsky.social writes about home as a place that both hurt him & loved him. A place he still loves with all his heart. How do we find common ground with those who raised us but who also voted against the dreams we have for our lives and this country? Silas points the way.

I haven't yet reached out to Beachwood Public Library or their community partners--I'll do so in the morning--but I've decided I'm making it my singleminded purpose to ensure they have all the funding they require to replace all 100 books by this Friday.
