A win! A federal judge in MA blocked the Trump administration’s $100,000 H-1B petition fee, ruling that the administration cannot impose what amounts to a new tax without authorization from Congress.

Collin's last reelection came after her vote for Kavanagh.

In May, a Russian aerial attack bombarded Kyiv, damaging cultural institutions, architectural landmarks, and the National Chornobyl Museum. Herb Lin explores how the attack on the museum is a part of Russia's information battle against Ukraine's identity and history.

Today's Government Accountability Office report on ICE's Camp East Montana is scandalous: - Evidence of a homicide was destroyed or went missing - Detainees with HIV and diabetes were not given treatment plans - Cells were filthy and only cleaned weekly - A guard lost a loaded gun in the facility

U.S. Sen. Tim Sheehy previously ran an aerial firefighting company. After joining Congress, he proposed ending Forest Service inspections of those aircraft. @abestreep.bsky.social reports for @propublica.org & @republiclands.bsky.social

There is no word in the English language to adequately describe the anger and frustration and disbelief that Americans are feeling….

the Trump admin has sent over a dozen undocumented pregnant minors to a shelter in San Benito, TX Some were as young as 13 At least half were pregnant as a result of rape All had high-risk pregnancies And now, they & their newborns--U.S. citizens--are missing ballsandstrikes.org/scotus/birth...

I think y'all are wasting your time trying to explain the vote counting process to Spencer Pratt fanboys. They don't care how the votes are counted. They don't really think the election was stolen. They're whiny ass sore losers who didn't get their way. You should tell them that.

The fact that Trump spent very little (if any) of his own money should illustrate that being a billionaire had little to do with his success. It's all about being a (trusted) celebrity.

I don't think he was a terrible candidate, I probably would have voted for him over Becerra. But between Steyer / Schulz / Bloomberg flops for president and now this, billionaires should accept Trump was able to do it b/c he was a household name celebrity TV star, not because he was a billionaire.

CENTCOM said the pilots shot down were rescued at 7:33 PM ET within 2 hours after they were shot down. Trump boarded the helicopter from Bedminster to go to the Knicks game at 6:57 PM ET. So he was on his way to the game after they were shot down and before they were rescued.

Fox News carries Raskin's entire opening statement in which he ticks through the Trump administration's egregious corruption and extremism

In public health, you learn an awful lot about people willing to profit off of harms to children. But my jaw is on the floor. It never occurred to me that the sentence “I’ve put a couple kids in the hospital” would ever be followed by the phrase: “But here’s the thing.” @jackiantonovich.bsky.social

The Trump administration has killed a federal criminal investigation into GOP Sen. Jim Justice's coal companies. Justice had allegedly violated the Clean Water Act tens of thousands of times.

John Fetterman ran as a progressive but has been anything but. His behavior is completely unacceptable and a betrayal of the people who voted for him.

what this means is they are going to fully obliterate black representation in the state

🚨BREAKING: As it schemes to get President Donald Trump’s executive order attacking mail-in voting past legal challenges, his administration is shifting its approach to creating a national voter registration list. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

This week the SPLC and ActBlue must testify before Congress — while both face active DOJ criminal investigations. A former federal prosecutor explains why even a single imprecise word could land their leaders in prison.

My day job is at a rural branch of a public library, and we have a Pride display. Yesterday I was at the desk when a man came in. Fifties, maybe, or sixties. Plaid shirt, mesh trucker cap, suspenders. He went up to the display and just stood there for a long moment. Then he came up to the desk. 🧵 1/

This is such a beautiful story. Shaming others who are different — which is central to fascism and to current Republicanism — hurts your neighbors, friends, and so many others you’ll never know. 1/2

FIFA loves to feed us idealistic slop about how The Power of Football can bring nations together, allowing us to look past politics and see each other as humans and now they've got a World Cup whose host country is pretty clearly denying people from participating because of their nationality

these fucks lie with such ease and confidence

If Democrats had continued to parrot this conspiratorial garbage after a left-wing insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, Republicans would be calling for red states to muster state militias.

The Knicks were ahead halfway through the third quarter but there were wide changes in the results after that. It undermines integrity in the score.

Doris should sue his ass and make him explain to a judge, under oath, why he has chosen to harass her and publicly accuse her of fraud.

If you were thinking “huh, wonder if they showed up at some voter’s house because there was some filler birthdate in the database, maybe something like super obvious from 126 years ago like, idk, 1/1/1900” than wow great guess spot on.

Trump administration looking to transfer billions in Iranian assets to Kushner clients popular.info/p/update-tru...

People have to accept this is him saying the n word

"In scale and audacity, what Kushner has attempted—and achieved—is on another level...He asked foreign regimes to trust him with billions...Trump placed Kushner—who had zero diplomatic/foreign affairs expertise until [Trump] rose to power—at the center of every international crisis..." Informative:

Los Angeles County literally has a fully transparent vote counting process - the entire count is livestreamed online. This commitment to transparency makes zero difference, mainstream press still credulously repeats GOP info bubble claims of fraud anyway.

This is particularly revealing in the aftermath of a bunch of Republicans declaring their states are, by definition and nature, Republican states, which should only have Republicans representing them. Somehow, the same principle doesn’t apply to Democratic California.

I think conspiracy may be a bad frame for right wing election denial because what they’re really expressing is a belief in is the idea that non-white people shouldn’t be able to vote.

Alright, just to dot the i’s and cross the t’s, here we can look at the Speaker of the House from the state that just led a lawsuit to eliminate Black representation, declare that “everybody knows instinctively something is wrong” re: Los Angeles election results. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

On Jared Kushner's trillion dollar conflicts of interest, from Casey Michel: "His financial entanglements span the globe, touching on the diplomatic hotspots where he is supposed to be negotiating on America’s behalf" www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Never forget Trump told his supporters that they would never have to vote again if he was elected in 2024. There is no other way to interpret this other than he would rig future elections.

Jesus wept. All the worst, dumbest things in the world today are ON YOU, AMERICA. Take Mark - a pioneer of killing people like it’s the 1800s. Every day some new white chud comes along making the world dumber, more deadly and hateful, and y’all just let them, instead of JAILING their asses. 😭

this is a crucial response to the "hur hur silly science experiments" anti-intellectual populism that allows for cuts like this to be politically possible. prospect.org/2026/06/09/w...

Useless game but if Biden said this, the press would crash down on him with a Biblical flood of condemning headlines and chyrons. And he wasn't looting Americans for billions of dollars.

Doctors are quarantining from their own babies after work. Parents are delaying daycare. Hospitals are shutting down waiting rooms after exposures. This is life in Utah, where measles is making a roaring comeback:

If you credulously do a segment about the vote in California in which you don’t say the president is lying, you’re spreading disinformation to your listeners.

"Blanche does not defend redacting the names of potential co-conspirators in Dept of Justice documents. Blanche does not defend withholding documents containing allegations against President Trump" Striking new filing by @katiephang.bsky.social seeking court order for release of more Epstein files

NEW: Regulators have linked Mark McAfee’s raw dairy farm to more than a dozen recalls and outbreaks that left hundreds of people ill. “I’ve put a couple kids in the hospital,” McAfee said. “But here’s the thing: I’m a pioneer.”

Five days of traffic chaos for Orange Caligula’s gladiatorial orgy.🤬
