The CEO of Spirit Airlines said, in writing, that Spirit shuttered because of the huge recent rise in fuel prices (due to the Iran war). So, Trump is lying when he tries to blame anyone other than himself. Lying.

A new report this morning revealed historic levels abuse by ICE against detainees. And the government was documenting it all. www.adamkinzinger.com/p/top-news-c...

The only dress anyone should be wearing to the met gala

"'George is like the equivalent of bringing in the Navy SEALs of politics, in that this is not a normal operating time,' said Rachel Lavine, a Democratic State Committee member for the 66th Assembly District who met Conway through her wife, Robbie Kaplan, the attorney for [E. Jean] Carroll. ...

More a deflection from their own ineptitudes. They want to be seen to demonising someone they think they can dominate into submission. Mainly cos they’re scared shitless of showing any aptitude to the one that matters.

Thank you, Julie K. Brown for always speaking truth to power. Congratulations on your Pulitzer Prize. The entire world applauds your courage.

“This is the start and not the end. We are not tolerating the status quo.” @katmabu.bsky.social & I talk about the need for real diversity in Congress; not just in age, but in lived experiences. We also explore what worked from her campaign & how best to turn out young voters youtu.be/YmjBh9bwnSc

Keep on talking about Jeffrey Epstein every day.

Have you noticed that no one on this list, or any other Epstein list, has filed any lawsuits for defamation? I wonder why?

thousands came out Friday. incredible to see everyone in the streets, especially car wash workers with CLEAN pushing back on the admin’s indiscriminate mass deportations.

What she says…

I thought about her and her family a lot today. If they were there, I hope they felt the love.

America has a demented president running the country and the people who voted for him, or couldn't get themselves to vote for Harris so they stayed home or voted 3rd party, are responsible for this damn mess. Anyone with a lick of sense could have seen this coming.

No one is buying the FCC's pretext for going after Disney. It is a sham investigation meant to chill speech and punish independent media. Disney must continue to fight back. Because if they do, they will win. www.bloomberg.com/news/videos/...

Refutations to Anti-Vaccine Memes Originally this cartoon was about Covid vaccination, but it's just as relevant to measles, pertussis, and all the other vaccine-preventable diseases.

One thing this regime has taught us is that a president can do whatever the fuck they want if no one stops him. All that bullshit about "Don't worry, he can't do that because constitution" is being proven to be the lie it is. We are allowing our country to be dismantled by a mad man and his cult.

A Pulitzer for Julie K. Brown. Richly deserved, and overdue!

. If you work in media shame on you. .

Which is the backwards country now, United States?

Congrats to Julie K. Brown! She was awarded a #Pulitzer Prize special citation today for her groundbreaking reporting in 2017 & 2018 for the Miami Herald exposing Jeffrey Epstein's systematic abuse of young women and the justice system & powerful network of associates that protected him for years.

Just think of how many of them are now (or will be) of voting age.

Well done Asheville, NC! Proud of our students!

Hoping the majority of this younger generation mobilizes and votes MAGA out in the midterm elections.

Yes, Yes, Yes! And the older generations must encourage, support and follow!

The revolution against Donald Trump, the Republicans & the Heritage Foundation is in full stride. Children/young adults are making their voices heard. The future is in good hands.

Asheville, NC high schoolers are currently schooling the presidency on what real leadership looks like. It is inspiring to see thousands marching behind a generation that is done waiting for permission from a government that doesn't care about the people.

on set. what about YOU?

How about a TV that automatically cuts the volume by half during the commercials and back to full when the show comes back. Now THAT would be a SmartTV. 🧠 📺

Sorry... HARD pass. 🤢 #MayTheFourthBewitchYou

Trump is a world altering, titanic piece of shit.

“The National Park Service notified authorities of the vandalism at approximately 7:20 a.m., the Washington Examiner reported. The graffiti, which measured roughly 15 by 30 feet, featured the numbers “86 47” spray-painted onto the site.“

curious how Trump decided to attack NATO right after his long phone call with Putin

A Florida Republican Sheriff, Grady Judd, announced the arrest of 266 defendants in a sex trafficking scheme & minced no words. He identified influencer Craig Long, who he said moved in high circles including with the president, holding up a picture of Long with Trump www.youtube.com/watch?v=x03q...

BREAKING: The Court has ordered the government to respond with answers at 7:30am — and there will be a status conference at 8am. Thank you team @democracyforward.org and co-counsel and clients!

Truth.

The question was “why?”

"Trump’s initial post about removing US troops from Germany came just hours after he spoke by phone with Russian President Vladimir Putin, who has long sought to reduce the number of NATO troops in Europe... "The Pentagon 'was not expecting it'... www.politico.com/news/2026/04...

But I was told we needed to tone down the rhetoric

Absolutely extraordinary. The Democrats conceded *nothing* and got everything they demanded. They said no ICE/CBP funding, and that's precisely what happened. In other words, they did not cave. At all. But the GOP did—completely.

Once again, @dahlialithwick.bsky.social and her guests on Amicus help me hold onto some shreds of sanity and remain focused amidst the chicanery that threatens to flood our legal system. Her talk this week with @audrelawdamercy.blacksky.app about Louisiana v. Callais is a must-listen. bit.ly/4cNwZU3
