Even if you support massive deportation operations, under no circumstances should ANYONE be ok with US citizens being forcibly removed from their homes and detained without explanation. This is a clear violation of their constitutional rights and should universally condemned.

He cut pediatric cancer research and meals on wheels!

What a weird-ass Rapture. Only the Constitution disappeared.

Whether they're blaming vaccines and Tylenol, or selling dubious "remedies," what they're really doing is promoting the perception that families (and especially mothers) can prevent and treat Autism. And thus also the perception that people with Autism and their families don't need social support.

Dear Google, does Tylenol cause Autism? While earlier descriptions of autism-like behaviors exist, autism was first definitively identified as a unique clinical syndrome in 1943 by psychiatrist Leo Kanner. Tylenol was invented in 1955 by McNeil Laboratories.

Milhoan is now indicating that since COVID19 vaccines don’t always prevent infection, it’s not effective. The COVID19 vaccine prevents hospitalization and death very effectively. One might argue that this is an important fact.

In a world of Rolf’s, be the captain.

Cory Booker tells Kash Patel in a fiery exchange, "You may be in charge of the FBI, but I'm not afraid of you!"

With her new documentary “Democracy Noir,” Oscar-nominated director Connie Field returns with a celebration of resistance against autocratic Hungarian prime minister Viktor Orbán and his political party Fidesz Grade: 3.5/5.0

I wonder how advertisers feel. Which products does this help to sell?

“Kirk & I were on different sides of most political arguments. We were on the same side of the continued possibility of American politics.” So it’s personal? B/c if you were a Black woman or transgender, Kirk would not imagine you having any role in the future of American politics.

An impulsive liar very obviously lied again and we’re going full CSI on his signature like he hasn’t been impulsively lying for literally decades.

55,000 adults have died of AIDS since DOGE shuttered PEPFAR- 6000 of the dead were children

Rachel Maddow A block was 27 minutes👀

This is exactly what the European far-right does: pretend that advocates for Ukraine want us to be "dying in Russia." The point is to scare people into doing nothing at all (as if letting Russia win would make us safer)

Can we settle on the Department of Grift?

They will wake up to a multi billion bailout to cover tariff damages, just like last time. www.forbes.com/sites/stuart...

The fear of appearing to be partisan is part of the reason we’re in this mess.

This is essential viewing:

A vote here for renaming the White House “Donny’s Kremlin”

“Trust is very hard to earn and it is very easily lost… once you have injected doubts into the way that we collect and analyze information about the state of our economy, it’s a very difficult genie to put back in the bottle.” Watch Economist Aya Ibrahim in conversation with Jen Rubin:

I heard a news clip earlier this summer that crops were dying on the vine because migrants are afraid to show up for work. Why the crickets now?

You‘d think the centrists and establishment people would all be going apeshit for Pritzker because they’re always looking for a new John D Rockefeller but I get the sense that they haven’t thrown in with him because he’s a little fight-y and not obsessed with bipartisanship

Fictitious conspiracies are easier to pursue since there's no chance that reality will intervene apnews.com/article/trum...

ah yes the long simmering "can a U.S. president invade the United States to enforce racism through a campaign of kidnapping, murder, and terror" debate, gotta hear both sides

Should MTG thank the Dems now for turning the hurricane away from the US. They can control the weather, after all.

Nice dinner with our friend tonight, who’s sister lives in Corpus Christi, Texas, just a block and a half from the Gulf of Epstein Files.

Any results from the Kleptocracy Summit yet? I’m guessing that bitcoin is a high priority.

Having Trump as peacemaker is like having a raccoon in charge of garbage security.

Among the deletions in this year's Trump-era human rights report: women's rights. Barely a mention for half of humanity. Both outrageous and pathetic. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Russia, if you’re listening, release those Epstein files.

Ben & Jerry’s non-dairy Cherry Garcia is really good❤️

Holy Sh!t👀

The great advantage of rightwing politics, in the economic as well as social/cultural spheres, is that they *don't have to work*. There is literally no pressure on those policies to actually make life easier for the median voter. All they ever have to do is ensure someone else can be blamed.

Most of the news about Trump & Epstein could have come out in 2016 prior to the 1st Great Mistake. It all could have been covered before the 2nd Great Mistake. We need to take back the media.

Narrator: the GOP lead senate intelligence committee confirmed that Russia was not a hoax.

Thousands of research projects—some years in, with taxpayer money already spent—were wiped out by Trump’s budget cuts. At the Science Fair of Lost Research, scientists showed what was lost: cancer breakthroughs, climate solutions, public health progress. zurl.co/1KB6I #standupforscience

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com “In my 50 years of following tax and budget policy, I don’t believe I have seen another piece of legislation that would have such broad and deep impacts on virtually every American,” Steven Rattner writes. “It is a result that should embarrass the Republicans.”

Republicans pulled an all-nighter to: -strip healthcare away from 17 million Americans -take food assistance away from 3 million Americans -eliminate school meal access for 18+ million kids -send energy costs soaring -add $3.3 trillion to national debt -raise health care premiums for seniors

FINAL RESULT of the New York City election: Mamdani: 56.0%. 545,334 votes (+99069 over first-round). Cuomo: 44.0%, 428,530 votes (+53493 over first-round). Mamdani wins by 12 percentage points.

GOP & their handlers in right wing media are obsessed with prosecuting the truth rather than procuring the truth.

Trickle Down doesn’t work with economics but it seems to work with lawlessness, racism & xenophobia.

In Tommy Tuberville's home state of Alabama, 23% of all personal income comes from transfer payments from the federal government. Alabama is the tenth most dependent on federal funding, getting $1.80 in spending back for every $1 its citizens pay in taxes. www.al.com/politics/202...

“Darkness has a hunger that’s insatiable” Emily Saliers

Interesting that in past few days Trump: --Pushed for Russia at G7 --Left G7 before Zelenskyy arrived --Moved to erase regs against asbestos, a Russian export --Took a step back from Iran attack after another call with Vlad Seems to be following instructions more closely these days. Just saying.

This past weekend over 5,000,000 for No Kings, 8,500 for a king.

I’m thinking that the “bothsidesism” that was nurtured over the last few decades by the mainstream media was rehearsal for what is now full bore “bothsidesism”. On CBS this morning: people gathered at the military parade and also at the No Kings rally. Really?

This is serious, rigorous analysis and it should change the way the media has been covering these protests. These were, in the aggregate, *massive.*

Members of Congress should use air quotes when swearing in. I do solemnly swear that I will “support” and “defend” the United States against “all enemies”, foreign and “domestic”…
