Good morning! Counting down the days to Project World Cup Spotlight's first action!

I turned down an invitation because It's hard to pretend it's "just politics" when I know there will be people at this July 4th party who voted to erase any POC or LGBTQ+ person from this country.

Trump has signed an executive order reclassifying nearly 8,000 federal employees in policy-related positions, stripping away long-standing civil service protections that previously shielded them from political dismissal.

BREAKING: CBS News has terminated 60 Minutes correspondent Scott Pelley's contract following his vocal disagreements with the new leadership under Bari Weiss.

Sen. Andy Kim: "It's a choice. Delaney Hall is run by GEO Group. GEO Group is getting a nearly $1 billion contract to run Delaney Hall. They tell me there is one full-time doctor for 800 detainees. They could have more doctors if they wanted to, but that's cutting into their profits."

Finally....national coverage on Delaney Hall telling it like it is. The horrors of for-profit prisons are reminiscent of Nazi concentration camps. Please share widely #SheShed Life inside the Delaney Hall ICE detention camp is a travesty | Moira Donegan www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Day 8: New Jersey State Police officers on horseback utilized an outburst of flash bangs and teargas on demonstrators in front of Delaney Hall tonight 5/29 in an attempt to clear the area. State police are working with ICE in New Jersey now? WTF. Where's the governor?

The prisoners at for profit Delaney Hall Torture Center are living in horrendous, subhuman conditions. Protesters are being beaten, pepper sprayed and more. Help get out the word #CLOSEDELANEYHALLFREETHEMALL #CLOSEDELANEYHALLTORTURECENTER #CLOSETHECAMPS #SHUTDOWNDELANEY #ICECAMPSKILL"

ICE's treatment of detainees at Delaney Hall in New Jersey is the latest in a long line of abuses we've seen across the country.

When @kim.senate.gov stood up & called out these abuses, they pepper sprayed him.

Not another dime for this lawless agency.

We have a president who took the nation into a war for reasons he cannot fully articulate, without a strategy for how to respond if Iran did the expected and closed the Strait of Hormuz, and without an exit strategy if Iran doesn’t surrender. Reminder that Congress can step up and stop this.

I saw chaos inside and outside of the ICE detention center Delaney Hall today. Detainees protesting the lack of due process, the disgusting food and poor treatment while their families and advocates stood outside calling for help. 1/4

This photo of Andy Kim in the moments before ICE gassed everyone at Delaney Hall is going into the history books. We need more of this from our electeds.

It’s not just that we will miss one of the most consistently funny, astutely perceptive and topically necessary shows on television, it’s that we will miss getting to spend a little time each night with one of the most genuine, authentic hosts ever to do it.

A history of the top marginal tax rates on the wealthiest Americans: 1940: 81% 1950: 84% 1960: 91% 1970: 72% 1980: 70% 1990: 28% 2000: 40% 2010: 35% For 50 years, corporate backed politicians in Congress have slashed taxes to line the pockets of their wealthy donors.

Reparations just aren’t feasible unless you’re a felon...

Stephen, now that your contract with CBS is officially over, we wanted to personally send you this letter about why we think you should partner with the MeidasTouch Network.

This gave me chills. Watch.

Letterman helps himself to a parting gift (or two), before 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert' signs off next Thursday.

Our legislators including ASM Mike Venezia, who nearly lost to Vélez's then-running mate Claybrooks in last year's primary endorsed Velez's opponent. And once again, they did not call out racism. Tired of Essex Dems INC (Inc is the imp. part) staying quiet on racism. @reginageorgebush.bsky.social

Red states don’t hold referendums before they redraw maps to their advantage. They just do it. If the courts are going to keep moving the goalposts, maybe it’s time blue states stop asking permission.

Sad thing is, I expect most Americans to not know about this.

Say it louder for the people at the White House! Use our hard earned tax dollars for care and affordability, not cruelty! #MomReceipts #Trumpflation #FamiliesBelongTogether
