Slaughter is an earthquake: SCOTUS has overturned a 90-year-old precedent that facilitated much of modern governance by granting many agencies meaningful independence from the president. Now SCOTUS crushes that independence ... for seemingly every agency except the Federal Reserve.

MAJOR BREAKING: In a 5-4 ruling, the U.S. Supreme Court held that states may count mail-in ballots that are postmarked on or before Election Day, even if they arrive afterward. Justices Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch, and Kavanaugh dissented.

NEWS: The U.S. Supreme Court has DECLINED to hear Trump’s appeal of the $5 million sexual abuse and defamation verdict won by E. Jean Carroll in 2023.

Trumps Fair is seemingly over after the abysmal turnout. They won’t admit this though and are instead citing extreme weather Credits: @scma6662024 @paulosincup @robotorotondo @by_yalz @teenieyoginie @auntiemameskitchen @rohita.kadambi @kgardinier

Wild bodycam footage shows Oklahoma farmer arrested for simply making public comment about his data center opposition. But wait til you hear what he did AFTER being arrested! This is what courage looks like! 🔥🔥 (PS —Thanks @404media.co for the reporting)

Btw in the Soviet Union, being an editor of a forbidden underground “samizdat“ newsletter netted a sentence of 5, maybe 10 years tops.

PRAIRIELAND DEFENDANT SENTENCED TO 30 YEARS IN PRISON FOR MOVING A BOX OF ANTIFASCIST ZINES Anti-ICE activists received lengthy prison terms — including a 100-year sentence — in the first major trial of the NSPM-7 era. In @theintercept.com:

Whether it’s against algae or Iran, this president simply can’t win. After all, once a loser always a loser. Thanks as always to the amazing @visibilitybrigade.bsky.social volunteers across the country who showed up to highlight just what a colossal failure Trump is in every way. Drain the swamp!

The amount of problems at this fair is insane. Somehow this is still going to cost taxpayers a fortune while Trump still manages to cut corners Credits: @matthewarein

Looks like Trump’s state fair is continuing to just be a waste of taxpayer dollars. This is only the second day… Credits: @thedemocrats

Even Fox News couldn’t hide the sparse attendance at Trump’s long-promised ‘Great American State Fair.’

Trump threw America’s 250th birthday party and barely anyone came.

NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani jumps into a NYC public pool to kick off a summer tradition that two mayors before him skipped. Love this. 💙

This week, a woman stared down federal agents and stood her ground. Hundreds marched on DC to reclaim America's 250th. A man called Trump a pedophile to his face. Mamdani's movement swept New York's primaries. And artists turned Trump's own Kennedy Center into a screen for Epstein footage.

The Trump administration is canceling a lease held by Duke Energy off the coast of North Carolina as it expands its campaign to block new offshore wind developments.

Tell Congress: Disabled Veterans Are Not Budget Bargaining Chips. Write one here: actionnetwork.org/letters/vote...

www.dav.org/learn-more/n... Section 108 of the proposed Take Care of America's Veterans Act (H.R. 9237) alters the VA disability compensation rules for tinnitus and sleep apnea. The goal is to use the money saved to pay $57B to fund other programs. Please call your representative to stop this now.

A plan to nearly triple a VA home loan refinancing fee in order to cover higher benefits for the nation's most severely injured veterans is part of the Take Care of America's Veterans Act advancing through Congress. From Stars and Stripes' Linda F. Hersey:

Section 108 of TCAVA writes veteran disability rating cuts into law to free up budget room, shifting up to 57 billion dollars onto 1.5 million future claimants. Common Defense led a coalition of 15 veteran orgs demanding Congress strike it. Strip Section 108. Take action at https://bit.ly/4uPoQUy

In the Majority's Taking Benefits from America's Veterans Act, they proposed cuts to veterans' benefits instead of charging the DoD. We should not be picking the pockets of the men and women who served. We must honor our promise and take care of our nation's veterans.

🖋️ “Oppose The Take Care of America’s Veterans Act - H.R. 9237” hit 25 signers!

Democratic lawmakers, some veterans’ groups, and a coalition of labor unions expressed strong opposition to a Republican-led package of veterans’ benefits called the Take Care of America’s Veterans Act that is on a fast track to a final vote in Congress. Here's everything included in the bill:

Republicans spend trillions on tax giveaways to the ultra rich, and billions a day for Trump's war with Iran. But when it comes to caring for our veterans suddenly we need "fiscal responsibility." The so called "Take Care of America's Veterans Act" does anything but.

The proposed #BLM grazing rule sabotages public participation while expanding livestock grazing. Public lands should be managed for all Americans, not just one industry. Comments due July 13. #Bison #PublicLands westernwatersheds.org/wp-content/u...

Call our representatives in Washington, DC, and OPPOSE the 'Take Care of America's Veterans Act' (HR 9237 and S 4744). This bill takes away disability payments to some veterans to fund other programs. This would be the first time Congress has legislated VA disability ratings.

When Montanans can’t afford to put food on the table, fill up their gas tank, or keep their land profitable, our country is weaker, not stronger. #MTPol

Ruling against TPS for Haitians, the Trump justices on the Supreme Court have set a new impossible standard for proving discrimination against non-whites: if there is any other reason *in addition* to the racism, the racism doesn’t count www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

I look at pictures like this and am convinced this was ALWAYS just intended as a money laundering vehicle. Trump, and also Trump's special events people, have the ability to put on a decent show, even with the partisanship. Here they didn't bother wasting the money to do so.
