I really don’t want to overlook that the turnout at Trump’s America 250 rally was HILARIOUSLY small:

Compare Alito's description of Trump's racist statements (on the left) to Justice Kagan's anthology of Trump's racist statements (on the right). These are passages from this morning's opinions in Mullin v. Doe.

Sam Alito: It is the worst kind of discrimination to create majority-minority congressional districts and so we are going to kill the Voting Rights Act. Also Sam Alito: There is nothing we can do if the president cancels legal status because he thinks the United States is a white country.

Thomas’s favorite move is to write some absolute nonsense in a concurrence and then keep quoting himself in serial concurrences for years and years until political environment gets tilted enough to make it law/the chief lets him write a majority opinion.

This is more money than was spent on cancer research at the National Cancer Institute since 2014.

Judge O’Connor stated from the bench that he is giving maximum sentences to the Prairieland sentences because “the state wants to send a message to anyone who shares a similar ideology.”

But ICE agents murder innocent people and there’s not even an investigation.

Crime headline of the day.

Keir Starmer Resigns Amid ‘Not Being Very Good Prime Minister’ Scandal

First of all, that's not necessarily true. Second of all, WTF sort of an answer is that?

Using criminal charges to scapegoat innocent people for the regime’s mistakes is about as authoritarian as it gets. www.reuters.com/world/us/peo...

Happy Father's Day 🖤

This is the person the Park Police 'arrested' at the Reflecting Pool (NYT):

Future generations won’t ask what happened. They’ll ask who allowed this.

He really did

“Wharton School researchers have dubbed this phenomenon ‘cognitive surrender,’ in which users shift from treating AI as a tool to treating it as an authority, accepting its answers rather than actively evaluating them.”

Trump is blaming “vandals” for allegedly cutting the lining and pouring “corrosive chemicals” into the water, all to avoid taking responsibility for paying an outrageous sum to a no-bid contractor who screwed up. The various police are security theater to support this false narrative. It’s all lies.

Yet more critically important legal news.

How surprising

I heard that there are thousands and thousands of cases of Rep. Claudia Tenney drowning kittens in her kitchen sink. It happens all the time. But Rep. Claudia Tenney will tell you it doesn't happen because you can't prove it.

Look at how hard he’s working to avoid blaming his Dear Leader. It was the *memorandum’s* fault. Trump won the war but then the incompetent memorandum snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. He was powerless to stop it.

A judge greenlit a lawsuit from Democratic-led states challenging President Donald Trump’s executive order overhauling mail-in voting, which they say is a “completely unlawful” attempt to suppress voter turnout ahead of the midterms. @uebey.bsky.social www.courthousenews.com/ahead-of-mid...

The Real Memorandum of Understanding has nothing to do with Iran. It has everything to do with who gets rich from the deal. I documented all of it. 16 receipts. One sentence. This is one of the most important things I've published. Please share. barronstjohn.substack.com/p/understand... #iran

the business is called what a what now sorry

this is the result of antifascist resistance, in Minneapolis, Newark, and other cities and to protests against these facilities across the country. as Marisa says, it's a huge victory.

“It is true and accurate to say that Donald Trump started a stupid, devastating war for no reason, and then he lost it. And he should be remembered for it,” says Chris Hayes.

Here are the terms of the Iran deal. If you read this without knowing anything else about the war, you wouldn't be able to tell who won it. www.reuters.com/world/middle...

I have no doubt he’ll blame Vance but this is surely fake. Not a single exclamation point, capital letters are used correctly, grammar is much too good. Sounds nothing like him. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

The FBI raided an Ohio voting organization, saying it was on the hunt for voter registration fraud. But widespread voter fraud is a myth. What the administration is really doing is intimidating voters and registration groups. bit.ly/43G11Ub

Honestly pretty incredible to watch the women on The View call out JD Vance’s lies more times in two minutes than I’ve seen White House press do in several years

if “become ungovernable” is deemed a threat to the government wait until they see posts in ominous spongebob font

Trump’s own team doesn’t seem thrilled with being forced to come to terms with the historic level of failure of Trump’s Iran war…

Thread. This doesn’t resolve anything. All Trump has achieved is to *really* piss off a nation that has enriched uranium and known terrorist connections. Good job, Very Stable Genius!

The *youngest* B-52 in service today was produced in October 1962.

Oh, so they have NOTHING nothing

This is the perfect example of one photo being worth a thousand words.

As they know, there is no “Antifa” (and there were no riots). Like with Tren de Aragua, they’re just making up “terrorist” groups to justify attacks made for political reasons. Like the “Goldstein” conspiracy in 1984.

You don't have to answer the door for the Feds. Do not voluntarily talk to the Feds. If they have a warrant signed by an actual judge, then they can do precisely what the warrant says. But DO NOT TALK TO THE FEDS. Do not answer the door. If you're arrested, your only words are "I want a lawyer."

We won whether we won or not

His faith in using the Insurrection Act to crush peaceful protests? That faith?

“Fujitsu Chairman Hidenori ​Furuta resigned after the company confirmed his ‘woman-related inappropriate conduct,’ a spokesperson said.”

They claimed leggings were “too provocative” on a four-year-old girl. Zero good explanations for that.

They aren’t saying what the agent’s condition is, so I’m taking that as an admission he wasn’t actually struck by the van at all. If he’d been injured, they’d be yelling about it. Far more likely he just opened fire on a fleeing suspect who posed no threat.
