Voter rolls are already public, this is nonsense. If the Postal Service suspects mail fraud, it's free to send USPIS to the Board of Elections and use the public terminals to look up information just like everyone else.

This is what Karoline Leavitt said about the Housing bill yesterday — the one that Trump refused to sign today.

4 years since the dreadful Supreme Court Dobbs decision turned back the clock 50 years and eroded reproductive freedom and women’s rights. Texans are dying from pregnancy complications and struggling to access basic health care. Restoring abortion rights must be a top priority in a new Congress.

We often say this heat wave is a glimpse of our future. That's true, but it's only part of the story. Conditions like these will become more common, but even more intense heat waves will then emerge, with worsening impacts on people and ecosystems. Graphic from climate.copernicus.eu/esotc/2025/t...

Public Records Show FBI Secretly Extracted Data From ICE Protesters’ Phones Previously unreported documents reveal “extractions” from at least 13 devices after a Washington state protest last June. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

On Tuesday, eight Texas anti-ICE protesters convicted on trumped-up terrorism charges earlier this year received decades-long sentences ranging from 30 to 100 years.

“That’s a recipe not just for a politicized military, but an authoritarian military,” he said. “That’s the way militaries work in Russia and China and North Korea.” www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

BREAKING: The 6th Circuit Court of Appeals upholds a lower court decision blocking Trump's Department of Justice from accessing Michigan's unredacted voter rolls This is the first appeals court decision in DOJ's lawsuits over state voter rolls Decision - www.opn.ca6.uscourts.gov/opinions.pdf...

NEW: The postmaster general told Congress that, under a new proposed rule, the USPS will not deliver mail ballots unless states hand over their voter lists to the Trump administration. The admission is evidence that the traditionally nonpartisan USPS is complying with Trump's mail voting attack.

Our new poll finds that 79% of voters want a constitutional amendment that restores limits on money in elections. More results and what’s behind them: bit.ly/4dPG5yA

… Though ‘silliest revisionism on a right-wing podcast today’ still goes to Beck for saying that the 1935 Soc Sec Act presumed 1955 birth rates (which fwiw were much much higher than in 1935)

It’s Wednesday. He’s lying.

The last 18 months in politics: -Trump wins, implements horrific agenda -Establishment Dems go into freeze/appeasement -Grassroots opposition movement builds -Dem leadership feigns resistance -Primary challenges proliferate Not that complicated. Schumer et al reap what they sowed.

Judge blocks Trump’s executive order requiring proof of citizenship to vote. Elections are controlled by states and Congress, not the president.

Musk: Any legislation will do the opposite of its name, which is propaganda to fool the public. Also Musk: We need to pass the SAVE America Act!

“The proposal would additionally institute bans on universal mail-in voting, trans athletes in women’s sports and gender-affirming care for minors.”

Blocking a massive bipartisan legislative win in service of a Hail Mary attempt to save his own fragile ego from electoral humiliation

I can’t wait to watch President @jbpritzker.bsky.social use this authority to nullify Trump’s pardons.

A man whose life sentence was commuted by Kristi Noem has now been charged in the death of his 14-year-old niece.

CNBC: How open is the Strait right now? How much is actually getting through? It does appear that the concerns around inventories getting to a very low level and resulting perhaps in an upward jolt in prices may have been one of the reasons why we saw a willingness of the president to negotiate.

Oh, so THAT’S why Republicans want to eliminate the Department of Education

BREAKING: A federal court just blocked the DOJ from seizing private data on millions of Maryland voters. In 9 out of 9 attempts, courts have prevented the Trump administration from accessing voters' data.

crooksandliars.com/2026/06/ital... I learned a new translation of “@ssh0le”. “I don't know why the president of the United States behaves this way with his own allies…I can only say it's a shame he doesn't show the same determination with the enemies of the West…” -Giorgia Meloni, Italy’s PM 🎯

Honored to share that @nlgjaofficial.bsky.social has awarded me its Political Coverage Award for my reporting on how the EEOC transformed under Trump. You can read the piece here: www.motherjones.com/politics/202... And since it's June: happy Pride Month! 🌈

Rubio's silence is going to finally come to an end, as he is headed to Bahrain and is scheduled to talk about the negotiations and MOU while there. www.state.gov/releases/off...

Notice how Marco Rubio still has not publicly commented on the MOU with Iran or the negotiations in Switzerland. This is his only tweet in the past couple of days. Looks like he's keeping his distance and letting this blow up in Vance's face.

One estimate I have heard is $200 million a day into Iranian coffers once this is up and running. One of the many ways Trump is paying Iran to get to a (much) worse deal than Obama cut in 2015.

@rikiwilchins.bsky.social $40b, 13 servicemembers and $100/b oil and who would have seen this coming....

A federal judge threw out the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) lawsuit seeking Maryland’s statewide, unredacted voter registration list, dealing another blow to President Donald Trump and the department’s sweeping campaign to obtain voter data from the states. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Let’s check in on how Jared and Ivanka’s luxury Albanian resort is doing…

How authoritarianism works: 1) The president's pet project fails. 2) The president blames vandals. 3) Underlings arrest people gathered around the project so the president can claim vandals are being arrested, as proof of his lie. No orders needed. It's what John Dickerson calls creating a market.

There is absolutely no evidence that “chemicals have been illegally placed” in the reflecting pond.

Our entirely predictable Social Security “crisis" is a political choice made by a pay-to-play government, writes @michaelmechanic.bsky.social. Congress could close the gap tomorrow if lawmakers started acting in the interests of the broader public and not just the richest 10 percent.

I could not devise a better example of how the "color-blind Constitution" fallacy winds up disproportionately harming people of color by disregarding the practical realities of racism. www.supremecourt.gov/orders/court...

Giving consideration to selling the house, leaving the family, moving to DC, registering to vote there, saying whatever is necessary at voir dire just to witness the 18 minutes of deliberations before this defendant is acquitted and given a parade down Pennsylvania Avenue. people.com/former-olymp...

Sums it up nicely

"But then on top of that, the U.S. is—we are basically alone. Everyone else is marching towards an energy transition, and we’re trying to go back to coal."

🖕🏼😡

Really bad grant in the Supreme Court's orders list—the justices will consider whether this individual👇had a right to sue federal officials who denied him proper medical care in prison. Preparing to take another (possibly lethal?) bite out of Bivens. www.supremecourt.gov/orders/court...

New data: Updated COVID vaccines cut risk of hospital care & heart complications. Two new studies find that the benefits of the booster outweigh the risks. Read more: ow.ly/g1v350ZffCl

2/ It was hugely controversial when Stephen Miller said the White House was considering suspending habeas corpus. The White House backed off (Maggie Haberman and @jonathanswan.bsky.social new book). Now see what the administration has been doing, in effect.⬇️ www.justsecurity.org/133928/immig...

NEW: Taking up a case that could further erode the rights of people to sue federal officers for constitutional violations, the Supreme Court on Monday agreed to consider whether a prison inmate could sue a nurse for failing to provide medical assistance after a riot. www.nbcnews.com/politics/sup...

"[Donald Trump] has done things far worse than what the House Judiciary Committee in 1974 approved in the articles of impeachment against Richard Nixon. Republican senators ended up going to the White House, saying, 'You don't have 33 votes in the Senate, you're done. So you need to resign.'"

They laughed at Barack HUSSEIN Obama for being dumb enough to give them $1.7 billion dollars, but they respect Mr. Super President Trump for giving them $300 billion dollars, they respect him so much

It's not uncommon to be intersex and as an adult have a different gender than the one you were raised as. Many if us don't find out until puberty, or later, even when our parents or Drs know, because they've deliberately kept it from us. 1/

BREAKING: Georgia lawmakers have taken redistricting off the table as a result of public pressure. The state will no longer consider a new, racist map that would have diluted Black voting power. This victory makes it loud and clear: Our demands are working.

No one should allow one dollar of their money to be invested in anything owned by this racist.

Trump's body makes some sort of horrible sound while he rants about the "rigged election"

I think Leor Sapir is genuinely an evil sociopath. His entire mission is to drive up suicides of trans people through policy and then run cover by attacking the evidence of it. He boosts this insane "nocebo effect" bullshit that seeks to blame trans people and their allies for suicides. It's DARVO.

We went from crushing overt bigotry to hearing that only overt bigotry was actual bigotry to hearing that overt bigotry isn’t bigotry at all.
