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...

Newsom: "He doesn't play by a different set of rules. He doesn't believe in the rules. As a consequence, we need to disabuse ourselves of the way things have been done. It's not enough to just hold hands, have a candlelight vigil, talk about way the world should be...we have got to meet fire w/fire"

WGA statement on Paramount’s decision to cancel the Late Show with Stephen Colbert.

So, for the 4th of July you can either watch Jaws (do it) or Dirty Dancing. That’s it! Those are the only acceptable films for this holiday weekend. This means you need to carry a watermelon or need a bigger boat..

Maybe ICE will finally be able to afford badges and uniforms.

🎶It’s the end of the world as we know it…🎶

Mike Johnson just said if you are for reducing the deficit, this bill is for you. The bill adds 3-4 trillion dollars to the deficit. They just lie.

Susan Collins only votes no when republicans already have the votes. That makes her even worse than the others. A true embarrassment to our state.

The fact that The Haunting of Hill House is my comfort show now …. Le sigh.

Zohran’s results so far just show how tired Americans are of the status quo, how we need creative, people-first campaigning and governance, and why positive, progressive politics are the future. Hate to get ahead of myself before results are called but I’m so freakin happy right now.

This sweet, sad marshmallow really needs a foster! Thumper is having a hard time at the shelter, often squishing himself into corners or under blankets to feel safer. He lost his home for the 2nd time in 2 years after his adopter became too ill to care for him & is so stressed he's barely eating 🧵

You can't arrest people without warrants, you can't arrest people for asking to see a warrant and you can't bar reporters you don't like from City Hall press conferences This concludes today's lesson in Civics in The City

I can't believe any Democrat would THINK of allying with Elon Musk. I won't take money from the guy who does a Hitler salute. It's really that simple.

I never, ever want to hear again that women are too emotional to be leaders.

The acting head of FEMA, a Trump appointee, told staff today he didn’t know the U.S. has a hurricane season. FEMA is dangerously unprepared this year.

President gets a free JET and we lose access to valuable meds like this (which has SO many more benefits than just weight loss). Also, please enjoy your cavity filled teeth children. This is gross. I think I’m in a simulation but it’s The Sims 1. Be careful making your grilled cheese sandwiches 🔥
